OK! to make things short and maybe sweet, i will be sharing some cool stuff with u chikers. So hearing me complain about stuff being slow and what nots, I have decided to make it up by sHaRiNg.
Hmm.. seeing news, music and television shows being invaded by the Ks, i will be focusing on the entertainment(music) section.
In Korea, there are 4 popular music shows which are M!Countdown, Music Bank, Music Core and Inkigayo (hmm.. lemme bold these titles).
