Artist: Linda Chung (鍾嘉欣)
Album Name: Dinner For One, World For Two (一人晚餐, 二人世界)
Release Date: 20 August 2008
Region: Hong Kong
Language: Cantonese/Mandarin
Release Date: 12 Aug 2008
Genre: pop

Brief: Well, as expected the debut album for Linda has finally being released. A lot of her fans will be very happy. The strange thing about Linda Chung is that as much as people who like her, there are equally that many people who dislike her. Personally, I think she is one of those girls who really stand out in the crowd like she is standing in there glowing. Capture your eyes immediately and she is not a bad exercise for the eyes. Problem is, her acting is not as great as her charm and looks. Her singing…well…let listen to this album and then decide…shall we?

Description: So far Linda Chung’s career has been a fantastic success story. After winning the 2003 Miss Chinese International Pageant, Linda joined TVB as an artist and soon became a familiar face on Hong Kong TV screens. Leaping to the next level of her acting career, she appeared in the 2007 hit movie Love Is Not All Around with Stephy Tang and Alex Fong. Her efforts were rewarded with a Best Newcomer nomination at the 27th Hong Kong Film Awards. Now Linda starts her latest career as singer with her ten-track debut album. Fans can look forward to the principal songs “Dinner For One” (Track 1) and “Lovers’ World” (Track 2). Other featured songs on Linda’s promising debut music release include “Roller Coaster” (Track 5), “Actually I’m Unhappy” (Track 6), and “Matchstick Paradise” (Track 4).

Brief: Ahh…another one of those brain games that is trying to ride on the success of games like Big Brain Academy, Brain Boost and Brain Training. It’s fun that they are trying to “conceal” that games are good tools for training the mind.

Nonetheless, I am giving this a try later as I like these sort of brainiac games.

Brief: Hmm…this game looks to have some simple graphics but some parts of it does have better graphics.

Brief: 3rd album from one of the sexiest female singer from South Korea. She lacks vocal but everything else about her is top notch.

Description: If anyone deserves to have their own adjective, it’s probably Lee Hyo Ri. Lee, who emerged as a Korean pop icon since turning solo in 2003, introduces “hyorish” to our urban dictionary through the release of her new album It’s Hyorish. Bringing the cute-sexy concept back to the stage, Lee teams up with some of the best talents in the business, namely producers Park Geun Tae and Kim Do Hyun, along with music video director Cha Eun Tek, to present what is expected to be one of the best-selling albums of 2008. A staggering 60,000 pre-order copies were sold with ten days left before the official release, proving once again, the massive appeal she brings to Korean pop culture.

Composed by rising songwriter E-Tribe, the hip-hop dance number U-Go-Girl (Track 3) is one of the double principal tracks featured on the album. Highlighted by Lee’s unique resonating voice, the song is dedicated to her female fans and features lyrics that loosely translate to “don’t be shy, show yourself boldly”. Injecting Euro dance rhythm into electronica sound, Hey Mr. Big (Track 10) is a trendy dance number featuring fellow singer Wheesung’s lyrics, which include the words of advice, “be a real man, show heart and courage.” Some big names also show their support for Lee by contributing their vocal and creative talents, namely Kim Gun Mo and Wheesung in Bbal gahn ja dong cha (”A Red Car” - Track 9) and Sexy Boy (Track 8), respectively.

Brief: This is one of South Korea’s recent big production series. It also have big cast such as Bae Yong-Jun (not so good looking without glasses). The special effects are top notch but the storyline is rather mediocre. At least for me. Maybe cause I am comparing it with western series like 24 and Heroes. I can’t really stand too much conversation thus probably reason why I am watching less series but more movies. I know…I have short attention span…

edit: At last, this post is complete. Wow…24 episodes looks kinda long. But I still have a tough time watching bearded Bae Yong-Jun with his sweet white completion. He just doesn’t look convincing in a warrior era.

Descriptions: A long time ago, a tribe that respected the tiger and controlled fire called the Ho-jok (Tiger Tribe), ruled the world. They eliminated and assimilated all tribes except the tribe that respected the bear, called the Ung-jok (Bear Tribe). The Tiger Tribe and the Bear Tribe fought, and Hwanung could not bear to see so many people getting killed. He brought the three gods of nature; Baek-Ho (백호, the White Tiger), Cheong-Ryong (청룡, the Green Dragon), and Hyeon-Mu (현무, the Black Turtle-Snake).

He removed the power of fire from the leader of the Tiger Tribe, Gajin, sealed the power into an artifact called the Heart of Ju-Jak (주작, the Red Phoenix), and gave it to the woman he loved; Se-o. However, Gajin was mortally wounded while attacking another tribe, and she seemed to die until Hwanung healed her. This thoroughly convinced Gajin to not make a grudge against Hwanung. When her tribe was revived to take back the power of fire, they didn’t listen to Gajin and decided to attack the Bear Tribe. Gajin then slew her tribe’s council with her own blade, and escapes from her own tribe and heads towards the Bear Tribe, deciding to become Hwanung’s woman.

However, Hwanung likes Se-o and declared his love for her, not knowing that Gajin was watching them secretly when this took place. Gajin was infuriated by this and began reforming the Tiger Tribe and attacked the Bear Tribe. Unfortunately, this was the time when Se-o was pregnant, and when she had given birth, the baby was kidnapped by Gajin who offered Se-o a deal to trade her baby for the power of fire. When Se-o refuses Gajin, Gajin responds by dropping Se-o’s baby from a cliff, leading to Se-o going out of control and releasing the Heuk-Jujak (Dark Phoenix), even though Hwanung had saved the baby. (Note: Jujak is roughly the equivalent of Phoenix.) Hwanung’s subordinates, the White Tiger, the Green Dragon and the Black Turtle-Snake fought the Dark Phoenix, but they were no match for it.

Brief: Well, I was waiting for Janice Vidal’s album but it was delayed and delayed again until to my surprise Jill’s album came out first. Oh well, Jill’s music is more upbeat with more funky tunes which is not really my style. Though, it is quite good material by itself, I still think Janice is the better singer. Nonetheless, Jill is a good singer as well trying to make her own style and staying away from being cliche with Janice. She does succeed in this factor and any fans of Janice or Jill would be able to differenciate their songs easily. This is new songs + collections of her previous works. I think the best among this bunch is the remake version of 傻女 (track 4). The rest are equally cactchy with tunes like Get Out (track 5) and 可可 (track 11).
