How did you
first discover K-Pop?
|
3 Years
ago my friend showed me Korean movie “My little Bride (어린 신부)” and
after watching it a become addicted to Korean movies, dramas and especially
music. First Korean song that I heard and loved was “Because I`m a Girl” by
K.I.S.S. I`ve never heard such a touching and beautiful songs before, It was
something new for me. In a short time I already knew all famous bands and
songs in K-Pop. My favourites are 2NE1, Big Bang, CNBlue, B2st.
Me and my
band cover one of the Super Junior songs “It`s You” for MBC Star audition, we
didn`t win but attracted many people who liked it and we also have been shown
at Korean TV programJ

If you are a member
of K-Pop fan club, please give details of your recent contributions to the
group.
|
Unfortunately,
I`m not a member of K-pop fan club, but I would love to join.

|
What is your
plan for the furure?
|
At this
moment I`m studying at university and my subject is Politics and
International Relations. I`m studying it not because I like it, but because
my parents want me to get a good degree. My dream and life is all in music,
i`m musician and I want music to be my career, my hobby, my everything. And
because K-pop is my favorite genre I am thinking to go to Korea to study at
Korean National University of Art in a Department of Composition. Sounds a
little bit crazy but That is my big and deliberate plan for the future and
I`m working hard to be able to make it come true.

If you had the
opportunity to go to Korea, what is the first thing you would like to do?
|
I think it would be Hongdea (Hong-ik University). My Korean friends
told me that this area is the most hottest spot in Korea. There are so many
clubs, pubs and etc.. it`s a place where you can meet many of young fashionable
people.

Why do you
want to be part of this programme?
|
I love Korean people, I love Korean music, food, movies, language, but
I still can`t say that I know what It is - Korean culture. I want to learn
more about it. It is very interesting how did K-pop developed, where did I t
come from. Also it would be nice to know about Korean ethics and culture
basics, so I could feel myself a little bit more confident, when I go to Korea.
I want to be part of this programme because It`s a very good
opportunity to learn about something that I really like and I`m interested
in.

|
Is there
anything in particular you want to learn about Korean Culture?
|
The most important thing that I want to learn about is K-pop, it`s
history and how does k-pop industry works, how did it become so famous and
global. It`s very interesting, who writes these amazing songs for K-pop
artists and who are K-pop artists, where the big stars came from and how did
they become K-pop celebrities. Also I`m curious what is a relationship
between modern K-pop music and Korean culture in particular.
