Lets talk about K-pop

Heeey, I wanna talk little about k-pop and how it has affected my style and other things!

So lets start with the fact that, yes, I like k-pop. These days I listen to it more than I used to, but it has been several years that I have been familiar with it. I think it all started when I was about 13-14. Back then I mostly listened to japanese alterantive/rock music (Radwimps, Asian Kung-Fu Generation, UverWorld, BACK-ON) and western bands as well (Billy Talent, 30 Seconds To Mars, Linkin Park). Back then I think the whole k-pop thing started when my boyfriend of that time and his friends had this huge thing with Girls Generation's Gee.


Seriously, it was this big more or less of a joke, and we all knew the dance and danced it at school. Then I started doing some digging up and and found scattered songs here and there by various artists that I started to listen. At that time the only band that influenced my music taste the most was Epik High, because it was the closest to my music taste that time.


Some time before Psy landed on the markets, I again started to explore my old music libraries and youtube and k-pop has steadily been part of my life ever since. Sometimes I just browse trough youtube listening to not so well known artists, but I mainly listen to Big Bang and 2ne1, 'cause if it comes to fashion icons T.O.P, GD and CL are seriously my idols.


GD has such amazing style and his music videos give me a lot of inspiration. My style has become more and more influenced by his musicvideos. Most of the time when I'm looking trough K-pop musicvideos I'm just making notes of clothes I plan to do or buy.

Aaaaah it's so hard to write about this stuff, cause I have so much what I want to say but I cant put it into words. Welp, I'll make more thorough post about GD maybe?

Anygaaaays, Tommi out.
