Introduction

This is my first time writing a blog. I have never even kept a diary, though I have always wanted to. I have always think it would be great to be able to write down how I feel, special things that happened, things that put a smile of my face or faces of my loved ones, things that make me cry and many more. And to be able to read those entries again, days, weeks, months or years later and learn from it would make life much more meaningful. And would make one appreciate things & life more. But, after many years, I never did start writing, be it a diary or a blog...I am sorry...

So, what made me create this blog, out of the blue, on a normal evening?
Honestly, my thoughts are all over the place. So, although I clearly know the reason, it is so difficult to gather and sum up everything and put it to words. There can be a short and a long version to the answer, here goes:

Short answer: Dong Bang Shin Ki (DBSK), Tong Vfang Xien Qi (TVXQ), Tohoshinki

Long answer:
About 2 or 3 years ago, I can't remember clearly, whether it was 2008 or 2009, I heard a song while browsing or reading a blog, can't remember either. I heard a song, it was a Japanese song and liked it. Liked it enough to check the credits and found out the song was by a boy band named DBSK and the title is Why Did I Fall In Love With You.
Note: That is not the official title, but merely the translated meaning in English.
And so, that night, I went on to youtube and searched for DBSK and found the song. The official name of the song is どうして君を好きになってしまったんだろう?[Romanization: Doushite Kimi Wo Suki Ni Natte Shimattan Darou?]

The clip I found happened to be a live performance and I have to say, it was beautiful. Their voices, each have its own unique characteristic but blended so beautifully together. I looked for the lyrics and tried to sing along and it was really difficult. The boys looked good too and at that point my favorite was Uknow & Hero. I really couldn't choose 1 between the 2 of them. So it had to be both!
I actually didn't know them and identified their name by looking at the lyrics because the person who uploaded the lyrics put the name of the singer beside it. I know if there are any DBSK fans reading this, they will probably want to stone me to death for not knowing who they are, but I will leave that to another entry.
So, very funnily, I was satisfied with just this one song. I did not search any further for more songs. Neither did I do anymore research on DBSK or Uknow or Hero. So, since it was a Japanese song and the member names were Uknow, Hero, Max, Xiah & Micky, I thought they are a Japanese boy band. Oh, also, I saw the word Avex on the stage. I am no huge Jpop fan but I do know Avex, hence at that point, I really did think they are a Japanese group.

Whew...That was long right, but I actually did not get to the point of starting this blog yet. To prevent my writing from becoming all over the place, I think I will explain in detail in the next entry.
