Standstill in Korea: Park Geun-hye

The President of South Korea, Park Geun-hye, is facing impeachment due to several allegations of corruption. Right now, she is simply hanging around the blue house doing nothing as she has no power at the moment. President Park is accused of abuse of authority, coercion, attempted coercion, and attempted fraud. One of the allegations accused her of forcing companies to donate millions of dollars to charities she owns. We can all assume if she did this it wasn't for the good of the people. 

Samsung has also been mentioned but there is noting further mentioned about the company. Park happens to be friends with the daughter of an accused cult leader who has a very bad reputation.  I will read up more on topic and give a more in-depth post about it. 

Park has stated she has committed an unpardonable crime but her lawyer says this is not a declaration of guilt. It sure does seem like it!

My New Fix; Black Pink

Black Pink is an up and coming YG Entertainment girl group. It leaves to wonder if this is YG's attempt to have a girl group that can rival 2Ne1's success. The girls of Black Pink are great but they are nowhere near the level of previous YG girl groups. I find each member to be quite beautiful but only one of them stands out to me. Meaning the girls dont flow together yet. Can't blame them they debuted the same year 2Ne1 said Goodbye. I listened to "Whistle", wasn't bad. The raps were good and I like how often they use English in their lyrics. They seem to have a better grasp of my native language than most other Korean singers. Which is plesant as I didn't have to cringe when they spoke it. 

The group features 22 year old Kim Ji-Soo, who will be the new MC for Inkigayo. The first non-Korean YG family member Lalisa Manoban at 21 years old. Jennie Kim (21) who was featured on G-Dragon's "Black". We have New Zealand born Roseanne Park aka Rose. 

The girls have a future and they seem to branching out.

I will continue to update 2 times a week like I have been. If I have time I will increase the length of the posts and the quantity. 

Bye Bye
