Syupeo Junieo 슈퍼주니어

Maybe.. I should do an arrangement of the members based on their birthdate. Always at a lost who’s older / younger. Only knew (at any instant) that the oldest is Teukie and the youngest is Kyuhyun.

Leetuk – 1 July 1983
Heechul – 10 July 1983
Yesung – 24 Aug 1984
Shindong – 28 Sep 1985 (easily remembered!)
Sungmin – 1 Jan 1986
Eunhyuk – 4 Apr 1986
Donghae – 15 Oct 1986
Siwon – 10 Feb 1987
Ryeowook – 21 Jun 1987
Kyuhyun – 3 Feb 1988

Alright, now I won’t get the (age) sequence wrong! 🙂

Cisco launches Flip Video™

Cisco Systems [yesss I love this company, coz that’s where I had my first internship 10 years ago!] recently launched a new Camcorder in Singapore.

Was privileged to get invited to the launch event on Thurs 🙂

Camcorders might seem common these days, but a pocket camcorder? That was what attracted me! But I was pretty skeptical on the video output. Will the quality be comprised?

So we took the Flip Video™(s) and went around doing some “testing”.

Did this indoor, at the dining venue.

And this was taken outdoor, at the open area of VivoCity at 3rd floor.

Doesn’t seem to impress me much actually. But I’m pretty cool with it, seeing that it’s a compact camcorder. It’s good for play use!

Not until.. I saw the “Watch in HD” mode on youtube! haha oops!

It’s nice of the organisers to have a “choose the correct flip and u get to own it” game. Yes I won it ahhaha!

So I took it with me to a colleague’s housewarming on Sat. Here’s the video I took, in bright daylight, indoor. 🙂

Take a closer look at 0:52. I’m impressed by how the video auto adjusts the brightness as it moves.

Oh! I haven’t show you the size of the camcorder right? Here you go!

The name tag is the normal credit card size. That’s how small the Flip Video™ is (the one in the backdrop is MinoHD™)!

More info on Flip Video™ on the official site.

Cisco Flip MinoHD™ is currently retailing at SGD 349, if you’re keen to get one 🙂

Finally, thank you Julian from Text100 for the invite!

He’s Beautiful

If you’ve watched the korean drama He’s Beautiful, you wouldn’t feel unfamiliar with this song

Yup this is the theme song, Still by Lee Hong Ki from F.T. Island.

With the recent debut of the drama in Taiwan, Lee Hong Ki offered to do a mandarin version of the theme song!

This song was recorded within 30mins! Considering that it’s a foreign language, Lee Hong Ki’s good! 😀

Oh I’m gonna rewatch the drama! :p

C.N Blue – Love

No idea why the korean wave these days, but since I’ve always felt at home with the Korean language (other than Japanese & Cantonese), and the recent Super Junior craze, I’m very into Korean shows/songs now 😀

Justin was introducing me to this song by C.N Blue (a Korean group) a week ago, when we went for the food trail. I thought it was pretty ok, until I saw the video. I love rock songs with live band! <3<3

Thought the lead singer (the guy in the middle) look very familiar, did a search on the group members and I got it right. He’s one of the main actors from the korean drama I watched recently – He’s Beautiful.

The song’s not bad, gonna search for their other songs now 😀

Food Trail

Random snapshots from the food trail that Victor organised last week 🙂

Obviously I don’t have enough confidence to post other photos, so hop on to my flickr if you’re keen. 😛

I realise..

I realise..

that I get emo quite easily these days

that I’m not as patient as I used to be

that I’ve lost the capability of good finance management

that I’ve also lost the capability of good time management

that I’ve started to look forward to weekends on Mondays

that I’ve been having Monday blues very frequently these days

that I’m no longer looking forward to work (gonna get killed for posting this)

that this peak period is way beyond my capability

I think I need a break. From everything.

Super Junior (part 2)

You must be wondering why I didn’t write about which songs Super Junior sang during the showcase.

Well.. that’s because I didn’t know what were the songs (probably except for the latest hit song – Bonamana) then!

Read a few posts on the showcase, now I finally know what was sung that day! :p

As in my previous post, the first time I saw their performance, was when I read DK’s entry on Super Junior crash course. In awed with their performance for the 2 videos I watched.. I kinda expected their performance that night to be of the same standard.

Here’s the first song that they sang – Bonamana. Hit song from the latest (4th) album.

 

In the 4th album, only 10 members are active. And since this is the latest album, you should be able to recognise 9 of them from the photos I posted previously. Same hairstyle. Probably the only 1 member who doesn’t look familiar – that’s KyuHyun 😀

Neat performance. 10 of them, you don’t find it messy at all. Actions are well timed! Compare that with the original MV:

Equally neat, if not better, since it’s a MV!

2nd song, was a solo by Yesung – It has to be you. The theme song for the show Cinderella’s Sister.

Next was Rokkugo, by one of the sub-groups SuJu-T. This is SuJu-T’s Japanese debut.

Following is another sub-group SuJu-H’s Pajama Party.

 Finally! How can they miss out their hit song – Sorry Sorry? That’s the first song that I heard from them!

Only 11 members appeared during this.  Here’s a video with the 12 members. (Missing Kibum who left to pursue his acting career).

Very neat performance I say. 🙂

Now compare their performance with the original MV.

Are you convinced yet? That they can dance VERY well? :p

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

There are 4 sub-groups: SuJu-T(rot), SuJu-M(andarin), SuJu-Happy, SuJu-K.R.Y.

SuJu-T members: Heechul, Leetuk, Eunhyuk, Sungmin, Kangin, Shindong

SuJu-M members: Hankyung, Kyuhyun, Ryeowook, Donghae, 2 others not from SuJu.

SuJu-H members: Leetuk, Sungmin, Shindong, Yesung, Kangin, EunHyuk

SuJu-K.R.Y members: (like the group name says) Kyuhyun, Ryeowook, Yesung

Alright! Some unfamiliar names? Hankyung, Kangin & Kibum are currently inactive in the group.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

This post was started at 6+, took a 1hr dinner break, and it’s 11.15 now. It was a challenge writing this, I ended up watching their performances on youtube!

I can never get tired of their songs and dances (yet)!

Recognising the members of Super Junior

I didn’t mean to flood with Super Junior posts, but I didn’t want to flood my browser with the Youtube tab everytime I open it. :p

Yes someone sent me (I think it’s Jiayun! Cannot remember already.. she sent me so long ago!) the link to youtube, on the “biography” of the different members. Do NOT play the videos embedded below if you don’t want to see their un-artistey look. 😀
