2AM - Can't Let You Go, Even If I Die

Though I am primarily a Big Bang fan, I still can appreciate songs from other singers. I've been watching 'We Got Married' Season 2, this Korean reality series where celebrities are paired up as a married couple and they have to carry out missions, stay together, and act like a real couple. In Season 1, my favourite couple was the Joongbo (Hwang Bo and Kim Hyun Joong of SS501) couple. Because of this show, Kim Hyun Joong was cast as Ji Hoo sunbae in the hit Korean drama 'Boys Over Flowers' last year. This season, my fave couple is the Petite/Tidy couple (Ga-In of Brown Eyed Girls and Jo Kwon from 2AM). Their personalities seem rather like the Joongbo couple but with some differences of course. Similarities is that the male of the couple is rather unique in how he does or says things and they seriously nag but they still seem kinda sweet. The girls of both couples are the shyer ones and afraid to initiate things, I think because their partner is from a male idol group and there could be serious backlash from their fanatic fan girls. Difference would be that Jo Kwon can be rather annoying with his constant repetition and feminism, while Hyun Joong was more blur, aloof and a little..weird? Ga-In isn't as domestic as Hwang Bo but she tries, and she's not as independent as Hwang Bo. Makes for good entertainment anyway.

Okay, besides all that, 2AM is the ballad equivalent of 2PM and they were both created by JYP, a very famous producer. He made Rain and Wonder Girls famous...surely this would strike a bell? This is 2AM's new single, and though the MV is well..typical boy band stuff, the lyrics and melody are rather haunting and meaningful I think. Check it out:


Even though I'm young, the pain is the same
Just because I don't know the world very well
Doesn't mean that I don't know pain

Why do you lie, saying it'll be okay?
How will my heart that hurts this much
Be healed so easily?
How will I live without you?
That's why I

CHORUS
Can't let you go, even if I die
How am I suppose to let you go?
Whether you go or leave, fix my heart
If you can't fix it so that I won't be in pain
So that I can at least live
I wouldn't be able to live anyway
I can't let you go, even if I die

No matter how much you push me away
I'll hold onto you until the end
So that you won't be able to go anywhere

If you're really going to leave, then lie
That we should meet again tomorrow
That we should meet as we smile
If breaking up wasn't a joke, then I

CHORUS
We went through so much time together
How are you telling me to live by myself now?
I can't do that, I can't

I can't let you go, even if I die
I really can't let you go
How am I suppose to let you go?
I can't let you go
Whether you go or leave, fix my heart
If you can't fix it so that I won't be in pain
So that I can at least live
I wouldn't be able to live anyway
I can't let you go, even if I die

Vainpot

I just read Lin's latest update about changing her hair for CNY, so I thought I'd finally show my new hair, which I also did for CNY. I went back to Kuching last weekend for a close friend's wedding and decided to kill 2 birds with 1 stone by getting my hair done for the dinner as well as for CNY. So, tada, here it is!


I got my hair dyed a brownish-red, don't know what's the exact colour code, but I got it done at my cousin's salon, Eric Salon and I've always been happy with how my hair turns out everytime I go there. I also got treatment done and they set it like this for me. Normally they set my hair slightly differently, but they were trying something new so I quite like it. Okay, to be honest, I think I finally look remotely hot? In the words of Leonard, I look like a woman?! (I have yet to whack him for this). In 'celebration' of looking hot, here are more pics!


Actually, when they first started dyeing my hair, I suddenly got the thought, would it end up looking like Ye Eun's of Wonder Girls? Lo and behold, it did. Check out my much much much prettier and hotter twin..lol


I think I can be forgiven for being vain this time, since there are actually very very few pictures of just me myself and I on this blog. Anyway, I won't look like this everyday, since I am unable to style my hair in the professional way they can. Haha! Okay, to bring me back to the ground and stop being vain, I have to admit one thing....I actually have glasses!...


They are actually 25 degrees for normal use, but most importantly, 25 degrees in the vertical plane to fix my astigmatisme. Why did I get glasses if its only 25 degrees? Well, most people have astigmatisme in the horizontal plane and they can just squint their eyes to focus better, but since my eyes are sooooo unique, mine is in the vertical, so it doesn't change anything if I squint. I'm only supposed to use my glasses mostly in the afternoons when my eyes get more tired or if I'm doing fine detail work. So yeah.

Okay, since I may have scarred some of your eyes, I shall leave you with some REAL hotness..ahahah..well..at least I think so..as well as countless other fan girls..LOL!!



None other than the completely hot but also adorkable TOP/Choi Seung Hyun...
