(22)Our Price: US$12.99List: US$18.99Save: US$6.00 (32%)Usually ships within 7 - 14 daysMarch 9, 2009 Undoubtedly DBSK!To be honest, i contemplated alot on whether i should buy this album. Reason being, if its an album with Christmas carols just like any other Christmas albums i hear in the market irregardless of whether its in the Korean or English market i wouldn't buy it. Why? well, i already know the carols and i hear it every christmas. What made me buy it is DBSK's acapella! I'm a fan of them but its because i know they're really talented. Whether is it in dancing and singing, not forgetting singing acapella! So, i highly recommend this album if you don't mind listening to the carols in Korean and if you want to hear DBSK's smooth and strong voice for christmas! I really like the packaging for this album and really, go get it! Its something fresh and they give the carols a new breath of fresh air. Plus this is proof of how talented they are.

Decided to listen to it and fell in love with his voice! He is a ballad singer with strong vocals and i feel he is underrated. He sang the soundtrack for Snow in August too. Take a listen and give him a try! The bad thing is that theres too little songs on this album! Other than that, i enjoy it alot! Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -

(3)Our Price: US$13.99List: US$19.99Save: US$6.00 (30%)Usually ships within 7 - 14 daysDecember 3, 2008 Kim Jong Wook- Great!!I bought Kim Jong Wook's Album before, but i decided to buy this one because of the additional tracks. His previous album had 12 tracks and this album consisted of the 12 tracks from before plus a few more additional tracks. I heard it was because of some management issues and that is why the previous album can no longer be found on yesasia. Kim Jong Wook has a soothing and strong vocals thats pleasant to the ears! I don't regret buying this album again although i already have most of the songs. All ballad lovers out there, this is a must buy! Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -

Big Mama Vol. 4 - Blossom
November 22, 2008 They Deserve Recognition!This is my very first album from Big Mama. I've always known that they are a talented group but didnt really went to check them out till i heard their song- Betray, Track 2. The reason why i bought this album and i didn't buy the others was because this album is more of ballads, mid tempo ballads (Think Seeya and their mid tempo ballads.) and its my favourite genre! Whereas their earlier albums is more of soulful music but it goes to show how powerful and strong vocals they've. For Soulful music in my opinion, you need to have strong vocals if not you won't be able to pull it off. Back to the album, its really a great album in terms of quality. Big mama consists of ladies who're not your typical, slim pretty kinda girls(Not that they're not pretty dont get me wrong)Its just that, Big mama doesn't conform to the music industry that want a certain pretty look, or to be slim like a certain standard. They're a group that stands our in their vocal abilities rather than looks. For all ballad lovers out there, this is the cd for you. Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -

This album is really one of Dong Bang Shin Ki's best korean album up to date!! I didn't really enjoy their 3rd album although it was great nevertheless. But this one, its better! I'm enjoying every track, every moment of it! Its very catchy,the different beats makes u want to just dance! The ballads are great, you've powerful vocals from all the members and it has far exceeded my expectations. I know DBSK are really talented and mabbe thats why i expect alot frm them! Its so mirotic, if i may use the word that way. Mirotic have been replaying on my Laptop,Hi-fi and Ipod! Well, i'm already considering buying the other edition since i'm enjoying it so much! For now, i'll continue dancing to mirotic. "I've got yoooou, under my skin." DBSK, HOT HOT HOT! Hwating!! Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -

(3)Our Price: US$10.99List: US$15.99Save: US$5.00 (31%)Usually ships within 7 daysOctober 14, 2008 Great!I've got to admit, i'm a fan of Brown Eyed Girls but i do NOT buy singles or mini albums for that matter because i kinda find it a waste of money when there only a few tracks! But, surprisingly enough i decided to buy this one. Its definitely not because i like the style of music on this mini album, im more of a ballad person and was actually waiting for them to release a full length album instead of a mini album with like only 4 new songs. What made me buy this was i REALLY enjoyed the tracks on this mini album. I listened to the whole mini album first before i really decided on buying it and i'm glad i bought it!!! I like all the tracks on this album but my favourite would have to be "You". If you like electronica kinda music or music like So Hot, then you'll enjoy this album. Give it a shot, you won't regret it. Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -

It has gotten me listening to it again and again, PLUS, "Strumming to the guitars, Beating to the drums, and Playing the piano" Not actually doing it of course but the actions of it! Just listening to the songs, i can't help but do it! Its really Addictive and Solid! Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -

I've all the cds of all the artists who particpiated in the OST, Like SG Wanna Be, M TO M, Seeya, Davichi, Kim Jong Wook. So you can imagine im HUGE fan of these artists!

Younha Rock The House!! Bring Down The House Girl!!" As many other reviewers will agree, this is indeed a solid album! So i'm not gona convince you on that because you'll know once you've listened to it. I've always liked younha for her great vocals and that she is multi-talented. I was very surprised on Track 15- My Song and... in which Younha sang in english. I would have to say, she did a good job as i understood every word and it is rare considering she wasn't brought up or didn't go to a English speaking enviroment to study. I enjoyed the whole album and would highly recommend this! ! Younha, You go girl! Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -

September 12, 2008 Enjoyed this album!I'm not a fan of FT Island, that i got to admit. The only song that i liked in cheerful sensibility is 사랑앓이. What made me decided to buy this album is that i managed to listen to the songs before it was out and decided it was nice. i don't regret buying it! Secondly, i do like Lee Hongki's Vocals and i feel he has strong vocals. Another thing which is interesting is the packaging of the album. Its unlike normal albums because it comes in a transparent flimsy plastic box and in it contains different envelopes of different colours. (Therefore the name Colorful Sensibility) In each envelope of different colors, there is a picture booklet of each member. For example, Purple is the cd, Green is Lee Hong Ki, Red is Choi Jung Hoon and so on. I was pleasantly surprised by the packaging and at the same time pleased with it because as a avid collector of cds and a huge love for music, I've never seen anything like that. So am i a fan of FT Island now? Yeas, Maybe. Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -

From then on on i was a fan of his. So you can imagine how excited i was when i heard he was coming out with a new album. He has a very sweet,soothing and strong voice! I would say in this album, he explored alot of different genres and not just ballad and R&B. You've a little country,electronica and mabbe pop..This album is a very "colourful" album which is what i would like to call it. Overall, great job by Kim Bum Soo. i feel this artist is so under-rated. I really hope more people will discover this wonderful talent! Buy it! You won't regret it! Did you find this review helpful?

August 27, 2008 Good One by the Boys.i've to admit, i'm not a huge fan of Big Bang and i only started noticing them recently. I didn't buy their previous albums but i do like their previous hit singles Lies and Last Farewells. (Man, i was addicted to them!) I'm not a huge fan of the Hip Hop genre either thats why i only noticed them now. Decieded to give this album a try because i liked the Intro- Stand Up. Happy to say, im really glad to add this to my music cd collection. I loove all the tracks on this album esp, Haru Haru and its great because the Big Bang Boys are exposed to different genres of music on this Mini album and it does prove something. I loove the packaging and i was pleasantly surprised to have a Build your own model of Taeyang. Give this album a shot, you'll like it. Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -
M To M Vol. 3 - The Colorful Voices
August 27, 2008 As talented as SG Wanna BeWhen i saw that i didn't write a review for this album, i was kinda surprised because i enjoyed this album tremendously and i'm still playing it in my ipod. I bought this album last year and i've to say i looove it man. I guess one of the reasons is becos im a huge fan of SG Wanna Be, Seeya, Davichi and the likes of it. You noticed that they're all from mnet media. the second reason is because all these groups have talents and i really do admire singers who do have talents. A background info on this group, they debuted before SG Wanna Be and, Kim Jin Ho was supposed to be in M TO M originally. If you do like SG Wanna Be and R&B, Ballads that kinda music, you should buy this album. Full marks for this album! M TO M, Fighting! Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -

(1)Our Price: US$14.99List: US$20.99Save: US$6.00 (29%)Usually ships within 7 daysAugust 27, 2008 Powerful VocalsI've always been a fan of ZIA since i first heard her sing in one of the soundtracks. She has a strong vocals and her voice is soothing. Very well controlled. Like all other fans, i've always been curious as to how she looked but would nevertheless still support her because its her vocals that is good which is why im a fan of hers. I mean, honestly speaking, if her singing was just medicore, it wouldnt really catch my attention and curiousity. If you're a fan of Zia, you must get this album. If you're finding for something different other than Lee Hyori and Uhm Jung Hwa who are very popular in the korean music scene nowadays, go for this. Or better still, if you want something with substance this is it. Ballad Fans, this is a must buy. You won't regret it. Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -
TGUS Vol. 1
August 27, 2008 TGUS BLEW ME AWAY!Being a huge fan of Korean Music, i'm always on the lookout especially for singers and groups that can REALLY SING. Knowing that the Kpop music scene is saturated with too many singers and musicians that are focused more on their looks or should i say face value rather than their talents. Not that its a bad thing cos there are singers who can sing and are good looking too. (Hey, whats there to complain when you can see eye candy right?) Glad to say TGUS which means "The Guys Using Sound" is a group who're very talented and they can really sing very well! You should hear them sing acapella, it totally blew me away! (Theres videos on youtube )I have never regretted buying this album and im happy to include it into my ever growing music cd collection as one of the most talented artists. Forget about face value and age, give talent a chance. Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -

August 27, 2008 Sweet Voice!I pre-ordered this album when it was about to be released. So you can imagine it was a long time ago. I've to to say, i totally enjoyed this album and i looove Alex's soothing,sweet and strong vocals! I feel he can be compared to Tim.
