    so whats the deal how come they are so big when Japanese people can't understand a word. Maybe its just for the looks or some kinda fad.

    Myolie, have you ever heard a foreign song that you don't understand a word? Your answer and Japaneses' may be alike.

    Totally agree. Besides lots of korean artists releases a japanese version of their albums. BoA is one good example.

    i actually like listening to songs i don't understand. it helpps when there's a good melody and you're just studying. you don't have to get distracted by the bad lyrics of english.

    i don't understand a word of korean, or japanese, or any other languages that may pop up, and i am still able to enjoy some of their music. :wiggle: as long as it sounds good to the ear it's all good. but if i understand it and it has really stupid lyrics then that's a different story.

    Actually Korean singers really dont make that much money. If you ever see how often their albums get downloaded and how cheap its sells , you can tell they really dont have much income. Well I listen to japanese music too and dont even understand a word, hehe.

    is it cuz the korean language is similar to japanese so it is easier for them to speak in jap?...why the hell are there so many korean stars crossing over to japan. actually i think they make a lot of money..since they release so many singles

    I heard that the korean music industry is really corrupt, and many korean stars like H.O.T for example get taken advantage of by the companies, cuz a huge percentage of their money goes to the owners

    i totally agree with you. I find it much easier to study at night when it's dead quiet when everyone is asleep.

    chinese is actually more similar to japanese. plus
    why do u think there is kanji? im chinese and i dunno any japanese yet i kno this.
    plus White people music is all about hip hop and R&B. i'd like some songs or music that catches my ears not ones that make everybody think they're "Gangstas"
