Korean pop group Wonder Girls have released a Mandarin version of their hit song Nobody (audio only, MV to be embedded once available)…
The pop group which undergone a member reshuffle last month, is set to release their first Mandarin album on February 12. The album will consist mostly Chinese version of their Korean hit songs, i.e. Nobody, So Hot and Tell Me etc.
Their Chinese sounds more natural than their English; and they should find that it’s much easier to penetrate the Chinese market as compared to the US. The girls are also set to release their full English album in April.
My 23rd day in Seoul. My mum is reading my blog expecting my latest stories; I’m feeling a bit guilty for the lack of updates. Quick note… I’ve been eating well, sleeping well (10-12 hours a day, must be the winter lol) and living well. Nothing that need to be worried about; take good care of yourself instead.
Lotteria (famous for burgers) is one of the biggest fast food chain in Korea. It first opened in Japan, and now with branches in China, Korea and Vietnam. Its Korean operation is probably the most successful out of all.
Tried their famous shrimp burger last week nearby Seoul (railway) Station, tasted damn good. Definitely will tried their other items again, there’s a few others on the menu which already caught my eye, i.e. kimchi burger and bulgogi burger.
