Blue Night 231119

It’s the final episode of Blue Night before it goes off air. The hosts Okdal, who were weekly guests during Jonghyun’s stint as the host, played SHINee’s “Ode to You” going into the third part of the show.

Okdal: “We’re beginning the third part of the show by listening to SHINee’s ‘Ode to You.’ Listening [to this song] makes me think of our beloved SHINee… our beloved Jjong-D. Especially today.”

cute parts: at 18:50 jonghyun says he can't drink coffee. at 34:00 okdal is reading a message from a listener named "S" who talks about their job partner which they are frustrated with. the job partner always reply with "ahhh", which jonghyun imitates a 35:00 (haha). at 41:30 jonghyun reads a message from a listener who explains their coworker always says they can't remember. park se-jin then says "why does it feel like this is a story about me?" and they all laugh. at 50:15 (they talk about names I think) jonghyun says they have a dog at home (roo!) named "별로" (meaning "not really") and okdal gasps haha. jonghyun then explains that they call the dog roo, but someone said something the first time the dog (perhaps?) came to their home, which is why they ended up naming the dog 별로, but they call her roo! (sorry, couldn't understand much of what he said).

130924 [Text] 안녕하세요 하루도 김드립을 못 참는 김불허전인데요. 오늘은 제 혼란스러운 마음을 단 한번에 정리해주는. 옥상달빛 - 하드코어 인생아 ...

130924 [Text] 오늘 속풀이방탄에서 정국이를 엄청 외쳤지만 이렇게 정국이와 노래 연습하는 사이랍니당?^^ 정국아 형이랑 가까워 지자잉?~ 대답해.. [Trans] Today at Shout-out-your-anger-Bangtan, Jungkook screamed a lot but Jungkook practices singing like this?^^ Jungkook-ah you’re close to your hyungs?~ answer me… Translated by Iraide of BTS-Trans on Tumblr.

ARMY NOTES -I wasn't able to figure out what Namjoon is saying in the top tweet, however he recommended this song: Okdal - Hardcore Life -Jimin is referencing the segment in Episode 4 of Rookie King where the members were standing on the roof and given a chance to air their grievances with each other/Bang PD.

𝐊𝐈𝐇𝐘𝐔𝐍𝐏𝐎𝐏 ( 𝐕𝐎𝐋𝐔𝐌𝐄 𝐈 ) a collection of covers and live performances by the one and only yoo kihyun.  ↣ download on dropbox / message off anon for gdrive  ↣ please don’t claim album cover as your own.  ↣ this collection is meant for personal use.  ↣ please circulate only on tumblr ♡ and enjoy !!

quick cc note: this is part one of two for my kihyun birthday posts! i have the customary graphic queued up for tomorrow on his actual birthday, but wanted to share this ahead of time since i refer to it in one of my panels there!

kihyun is one of my favorite singers in the world, kpop or otherwise, and i find myself listening to his songs, well, all the time, but particularly when i’m feeling not like myself. not to get sappy here (that’s reserved for the main bday post!) but. i’m really grateful to him and i hope he knows that he has such a positive effect on so many people! anyway, i’ve had most of these as local files in my library for ages to make my kihyun playlist(s) more robust, and i figured that other mbbs and kihyun fans might find it useful to have the mp3s too! all of the mp3s are named, tracked, and have an album cover already, but i included the png of the album cover in the download just in case you need to re-add. :)

keep an eye out for more volumes to come (the guy LOVES to sing and does so often!) as i’ll continue to add to the collection. ♡

After talking to @eddis-not-eeddis about Korean music, I thought I'd put together a list of Korean music that carried me through the last years of high school/first year uni :)

I listened to mostly kpop (and some r&b/indie/rap/alternative/pop rock) near the end of high school, but it became too tiring to listen to, and I became more interested in other genres of Korean music. I've linked a few of my favourite albums below, but most of those artistts have grown in name and (relative) fame since I began listening to them. Here are a a few more recommendations (some of which are smaller/lesser known artists, some of which have big presences in the industry):

Acoustic indie: OKDAL, Han All, Kim Na Young, Standing Egg, Lucid Fall, Sugarbowl, J Rabbit, Urban Zakapa

R&B: Zion.T, Zico, HYUKOH, Heize, GSoul, Ra.D, Crush, DEAN

Ballads: Ji Jin Seok, Park Hyo-shin, Jeong Sewoon, Kim Jin-ah, ONEW, Jung Seung Hwan, Paul Kim

Bands: Martin Smith, LUCY (they have a VIOLINIST !!!), The Rose

Indiepop/pop artists who branched out to different genres: Minseo, Chen, AILEE, BOL4, Sandeul, ONEW, Jonghyun, Monogram, Roy Kim, Lee Hi

Sam Kim's Sun and Moon was THE album of the year in grade 12. Every single track on this album is memorable. Sam Kim (from Seattle!) is signed under Antenna Music, whose other artists are worth checking out, too, if you're interested in unconventional, unique indie music (Antenna's whole brand is letting the artists explore their own tastes and interests; it's a whole agency of singer-songwriters). Sam Kim himself is an excellent guitarist, and likes to dabble every once in a while in other genres (r&b, ballads, pop) and has performed singles for k-drama soundtracks in the past. First song rec: It's You for a relaxed indiepop sound, NO SENSE from his album I AM SAM for a demonstration of his guitar picking style.

Lee Jin-ah is also at Antenna Music. When she arrived on the music scene with her voice and her piano, even big names like JYP (which is one of the "Big Three" pop music companies) were scrambling to offer her a contract. Her jazz piano background brings something very distinctive to the Korean music industry; she combines that with r&b and bubblegum pop influences, which is a really interesting contrast with her light, airy, fairy-like voice :) First song rec: RANDOM (a good intro to her eclectic style), Let's Go Camping (a slower acoustic/piano track that displays her whimsical sound in a softer way).

Eddy Kim's acoustic stuff is pretty good easy listening. I listened to his music constantly in high school. He's less experimental in his music style than Sam Kim, for example, but when he sticks to his brand (guy with guitar and a regular percussive beat) he comes up with some really good music. First song rec: 2 years apart or The Manual

AKMU (Akdong Musician) is probably the only big name company musician I still follow/listen to. They signed with JYP when they were in their mid-teens -- JYP is the only one among the Big Three companies that branches out from mainstream pop the most. AKMU is a brother-sister duo that creates quirky, whimsical indie-pop music with a very distinctive sound (they often sing together; the sister is an incredible vocalist and the brother is the one who composes and produces). More recent music has either gone electro-pop or acoustic based indie. I've added two albums here (one from their teenage years, one more recent) as a nice comparison. You can hear how their style has changed over the years! First song rec: How People Move (a funky, energetic title track), Time and Fallen Leaves (ballad), Last Goodbye (they incorporated a familiar classical music song into this in a very creative way)

Last of all, someone who technically is part of the pop scene in Korea, but whose sound is more memorable to me. IU's charm is the versatility in her voice; she's experimented with many genres in her extensive career (she was a child star). Musical theatre, jazz, singsong rap, ballads, bubblegum pop, electropop, indiepop, acoustic indie, alternative....... she's literally done it all (well. Aside from rock, metal, and traditional folk music). LILAC is one of her more recent albums (for a more acoustic indie sound, I'd recommend Palette). First song rec: LILAC (this is a pretty good example of the unique things she brings to the kpop scene: a theatrical, refreshing sound), My sea (a kdrama OST-style ballad that demonstrates her vocal ability and range), Through the Night from her Palette album (soft relaxing acoustic song)

Most heard and Least heard groups so far!

So we've just passed 260 polls on this blog so I thought I'd take this opportunity to make a post with some of the data I've collected so far of the most and least heard groups!

Most heard is anyone with lower than 10% and Least heard is higher than 80% 'No, never heard of them' votes by the way!

Also, I regularly update the submission google doc (link in pinned post) with all the data collected if you're interested in seeing more (it's even colour coded lol!)

Most Heard Groups:

✨LOONA -> 2.1%✨

BLACKPINK -> 2.3%

PSY -> 2.7%

BTS -> 3.5%

ATEEZ -> 4.7%

LE SSERAFIM -> 6.5%

JIMIN -> 7.6%

JUNGKOOK -> 7.9%

(G)I-DLE -> 8.7%

RED VELVET - IRENE & SEULGI -> 9.1% (interestingly Red Velvet had about 13% 'No, never heard of them' votes so didn't qualify for being in the Most Heard list lol)

SEVENTEEN -> 9.3%

TAEMIN -> 9.5%

STAYC -> 9.6%

Least Heard Groups:

JJCC -> 80.9%

MAKAMAKA -> 81.3%

ROYAL PIRATES -> 81.6%

eSNa -> 83.3%

OKDAL -> 83.7%

BgA -> 84.4%

BEBOP -> 84.6%

✨MAD SOUL CHILD -> 96%✨

Other interesting bits of data:

Out of the 260 polls we've done, 37 of them have 0% 'Yes, but I don't like their music' votes and so far there are only 2 artists who have more 'Yes, but I don't like their music' votes than 'Yes, I like their music' and they are:

Amber and Hyuna&Dawn (latter poll hasn't finished yet but I'm fairly certain it won't change that much in the remaining time lol)

The majority of the Most Heard groups are from the 3rd and 4th generations (which isn't that surprising since the majority of the submissions are also from those eras). PSY and BoA are also the only 1st gen artists to get less than 15% 'No, never heard of them' votes!

There are actually more girl groups and female solo-artists on the Most Heard groups list than boy groups or male solo-artists!

There are 4 polls that had a split vote between 'Yes, I like their music' and 'No, never heard of them'; Block B, AOA, Chen and Rocket Punch!

There is only one artist so far that has more 'No, but I've heard of them' votes than the other poll options and that's Onew!

The most popular poll on this blog so far is ATEEZ, which had 149 votes (hopefully this is the right one now lol... trying to look through 260 polls is hard lol)! Most of the other polls get between 40 & 60 votes!

(I will note that I am just going on the percentages and not the number of votes so this data is probably inaccurate since the polls don't get the same number of votes each time but I'm not about to do maths to make this accurate so hopefully you can all forgive me lol...)

I hope you enjoyed this brief look into the data collected from this blog! And thank you all for voting, liking and reblogging the polls <3
