  1. Best Korean music site, EVER.

    Couple of fixes...

    In the OST category - Maid, might actually be the film The Housemaid.

    Performance Album, might be Live Album?

    Other than that, this is a good list to start discovering Korean music, since... I dunno anyone except for Taeyang, 2NE1... Yellow Monsters... and now 10CM xD

  2. I changed it to The Housemaid. Performance album...I'm not sure. It might be instrumental, because I have the La Ventana album and it's mostly piano and instrumentals, but definitely not a live album. And can I say, the one song with vocals the Korean singer can sure pronounce her Spanish clearly!

Please! Be courteous. I WILL delete any negative comments that are just arbitrarily negative.
