It all started 1 year ago when i was on vacation at my Grandma's house, planning for the upcoming Toycon back then, i was at my Auntie's bedroom, watching TV when i stumbled upon her dresser. I found out that she's using a brown-colored hair mascara. I was thinking why she could use this, do i even think she wants to look like an Asian pop idol? I was even thinking of buying 1 for myself so i can look like either an Anime character or Asian Pop idol. (Even i can't afford to go for a hair color treatment at the salon or buy a home use hair color set so i can look like some Asian Pop Stars from Japan, Korea or Taiwan who has hair colors set in brown or blonde.) & then, there was also the black eyeliner thing, even the male Asian pop idols wore eyeliner to look more different. (I even thought that the black-colored eyeliner is used to look like a zombie, i think it worked for DLSU Green Archers Team Captain Simon Atkins to scare the ADMU Blue Eagles. That's what Simon did in his debut horror movie back 2 years ago.) Anyway, 2 things to be an Asian pop idol is hair mascara & a black-colored eyeliner. (or if you guys want, a home-use hair coloring set.)
After reading some magazines, books & internet references related to the world of K-Pop, i thought to myself that i was now also into K-Pop aside from J-Pop & C-Pop which is mostly knew from the start. But maybe aside from the music & the shows, i could focus more also on food, drinks, fashion & culture. Recently, i was craving for Korean food whenever we in the family could go to the malls for either lunch or dinner. I would rather crave for a Bibimpap even it's slightly spicy, whenever we go to the groceries, i would rather buy some Japanese snacks like Pocky, Hello Panda, Apollo & Collon. There was even a time that whenever we go to the salon, i always want to have Vic Zhou's famous bedhead. So i always bring a picture for reference. (C'mon mom, i want that hairdo!) There were some times that dad buys Asian-flavored noodles which i was the only one who craves it more, especially when it's Kimchi-flavored. But one thing's for sure, there's more than just music & tv shows in the world of Asian pop.
More than just having Vic Zhou's hairdo or singing to the songs of Super Junior-M in Chinese or watching a marathon of Super Junior M's concerts, Asian Pop is everywhere.
