Korean drama IRIS’s OST, titled Don’t Forget, sung by Baek Ji-young. The MV only focused on the love triangle between the three main characters in the spy-action thriller, played by Lee Byung-hun, Kim Tae-hee and Jung Jun-ho…
Nice song; Baek Ji-young did well to bring out the sorrow and emotions. Would be great to have a clean (without conversation) version.
IRIS is one of the most anticipated Korean dramas of the year. The star-studded show opened strongly on October 14; its English subbed episodes are scheduled to start showing on KBS World channel (lucky me lol) on Nov 11.
Other co-stars include Kim Seung-woo, Kim So-yeon and Choi Seung-hyeon.

Movie trailer of “G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra”, starring Channing Tatum, Rachel Nichols, Marlon Wayans, Sienna Miller, Ray Park and Lee Byung-hun etc.
I used to watch the cartoon series when I was a kid. I’m actually a bit confused with all those matrix-like and futuristic techno soldiers; can’t remember the cartoon being as technology advanced as what was shown in the video…

English subbed trailer of “Iris”, one of the most anticipated Korean dramas of the year. The drama is said to base on 1998 blockbuster film “Swiri”, but I couldn’t see much resemblance beside the spy-action background.
Regardless, with a strong leading cast of Lee Byung-hun, Kim Tae-hee, Jung Jun-ho, Kim Seung-woo, Kim So-yeon and Big Bang’s T.O.P… the drama shows plenty of promises; and the teaser probably managed to reinforce the hype.

Hallyu stars are dominating the Japanese Oricon singles chart for the past two weeks. The Koreans claimed the top three spots at the singles’ sales chart last week, and keeping their momentum with three of the top four spots this week.
Pop group TVXQ (known as Tōhōshinki in Japan) tops the singles’ sales chart for two consecutive weeks with their 24th Japanese single “Jumon-Mirotic”. This is their 4th chart topping Japanese single in 2008.
Actor turn singer Lee Byung-hun claims the 2nd spot also for two weeks in a role with his debut single, “Itsuka”; while Ryu Si-won dropping from 3rd to 4th with his 8th single “Kimito Boku”.
To be frank, I’m quite puzzled how the songs managed to lead the charts. I can understand that Mirotic is appealing to some audiences (although not to my liking), but the other two are just so average. Anyhow, sharing all three music videos below…
