Korean/Chinese music - 12-13-2008, 07:32 PM

I ran a search to see if there was any similar thread to this one, but came up empty handed.

Other than j-rock, visual kei, j-pop, j-hip-hop, etc... does anyone have a favorite band or group from S. Korea or China?

I'm not really a big pop fan, but I guess it was my mistake to let my curiosity get the best of me. I checked out S.H.E's "Super Star" (they're from Taiwan, but I'll just throw it in here to get the ball rolling), and man, I can't get their songs outta my head. I think my fave from them is "Miss Universe". Very catchy

Nest would have to be Wonder Girls. Outta their album, "The Wonder Years", the one that I like is "Tell Me". "This Fool" is awesome too ^-^

There are a couple songs from Chinese-punk rockers Brain Failure's album, "American Dreamer" I like. "Summer Afternoon", "8899", "Human", and "Such a Dangerous".


I haven't checked out Silver Ash, Chinese V-Kei, but will be soon.

I listened to S. Korea's Vassline. Unless you're into that screamo-stuff, this one is a pass.
