Congrats on reaching half a million. You should be clocking 1 million by summer end :)

Clazziquai is one of the few kpop acts that I listen to. And yep, they are awesome :) I think they got their first big kdrama hit with MNIKSS's 'She Is.'

JAVABEANS YOU MADE MY DAY!!!! MUCH LOVE!!!

does Bay have an album yet, tried to search them on google, their name makes it hard.

OOOOOH CONGRATS!
half a million woweee *I definitely contributed to that number - on here everyday at the minimum*
So here's my heartfelt thank you for your summaries/recaps/music
I gave a listen to some of the songs posted above and I would have mistaken F.T. Island's last song for an OST one if you hadn't provided that little intro.. That song blew me away - they are definitely going places!
Thanks again
I will continue to visit and support your blogging venture - You are awesome! ^^

Woooot wooot... 1/2 millions and counting! ^^ Amazing!
CONGRATS, sarahbeans hun... muah~~! so proud of youuuu kekeke...

Thanks for all the summary and cool music you posted =)
Clazziquai & Rhyme Bus = LOVE
(ah you posted the "Romeo and Juliet" heheh.. me luuuv that song, and currently stuck listening to their collaboration track in Rhyme Bus' album. Very awesome superb track!)

thanks everyone!

tsunamiblues, good point -- i added links to each album at Yesasia if you'd like to buy the album or see the full tracklists.

proud to be one (++) of the 1/2million who clock in! congratulations! very excited to check out all the artists you've introduced. :)

You rock! 'nuff said.

~aand.. looks like it keeps growing hundreds by the minute.

Donnie Darko meets Teletubbies...hmmmmmmm...

For a moment, I imagined Frank the rabbit as one purple or yellow Teletubbies instead and that is just so wrong! LOL *winks*

Back to the topic...500,000 hits and counting! How you spoil us, Javabeans! You give us these speedy reviews of k-dramas, articulate commentaries and now we have songs recommendations just because we visit your site that you've generously shared with us. Now..what can we do for you? =)

Congratulations!!!!

Congrats Javabeans!!

1 million wow...
My site recently just made 1,000 hits...not much...hehe

Thanks for the new music!!, i love Clazziquai!!
and Younha, i found a fan page of hers on myspace a while ago and i love her music, both japanese and korean....and i like the song "radio" by V.E.I.L
ive never heard of them but i like their sound...im always up for finding new songs/artists to listen to..

Congrats! You're the best--you not only provide us w/ awesome drama hookups, but also music ones, too! THANKS!!!

Congratulations, Javabeans. When you build the field of K-dramas goodies, we addicts will follow. Just wondering…. How many hours a day do you write for this blog? I thoroughly enjoy your work. Thanks.

Congrats Javabeans!

Thanks for creating this site to help us get our kdrama-fix :)

Congrats! Your blog is spectacular to read!

Finally! A new direction towards..GASP!...musicians who can sing? Is it possible in Korea Music Land? It's great to see a new shift happening in the music scene and the focus getting back to those who truly deserve it. It looks like rock/alternative is finally finding its footing with the resurgence of Boo Hwal (check out the 11th album - great lead vocalist!), Kim Jong Suh (not a fan, but writes interesting lyrics) and new acts like Younha. I'm relieved to see such musical diversity for once, instead of relying on the same-old, same-old. May great songwriters/musicians continue to thrive!

Congratulations for the half million hits!!! And thanks for your intro to K-music with the uploads. From the tracks you posted, I've only listened to my fave group, Clazziquai. But now, after listening to the sample tracks, I'll give My Aunt Mary, Blue Sorbet and FT Island a try. They sounded good, esp My Aunt Mary. Thanks again!

Congratulations! I'm very happy for the success of your blog! You have an amazing talent, and I love reading your articles and your drama summaries, and I just think you're really something :) Thank you very much!

congrats and thanks for sharing~

Wow congrats Javabeans! =) I'm really glad you featured F.T. Island. I'm just a new fan, just this week =D I was hesitant to check them out eventhough I've heard a lot about them already. Eventually I gave in and went to esnips to listen to their songs. I was an instant fan! =) but still I was starting to go on a boyband diet lol because good looks are starting to affect my judgment in music so I tried hard not to look for F.T. Island pics but I stumbled upon them at soompi! And now I'm not just a fan of their music but a shameless noona (pedo) fan as well T____T. lol. It's refreshing to see a boyband that plays instruments in Korea. I know there are more out there but not as much as those that only sing and dance =) Plus their songs are good that I was really surprised when I found out about their ages! Thanks Javabeans!

Hey Sarah,
You blog has become my daily ritual & I adore your diverse k-pop/ anti-pop music taste!

I think I'm the only guy posting here, but whatever. Congratulations on 0.5 million. You are awesome.

me again~ i just want to say a big THANK YOU! i had just bought something from yesasia and when i saw the ft island i didn't give the band another thought but after listening to the songs you posted i'm definitely going to buy their album and that of v.e.i.l.~ now i just have to wait for bad couple and flower for my life OST to make my next purchase. love your blog not only for the drama summaries but also for the intro to new artists. THANKS again!

Wow, 1/2 hit...its truly amazing! C O N G R A T U L A T I O N S! Sarah. Thanks for sharing the songs. Shenny introduced me to Rhymes Bus a few days ago and I have played their songs non-stop...in my car, at work and on my iPod. Youhna rocks too.

okay thanks, will check them out!

Wow...Congratulations javabeans!
Your blog is so awesome.
I enjoy reading every single entry.
Thank you so much.
Best wishes.

Thanks for posting all this music. It's reaalllly good, and nothing like all the other korean mainstream sh.. I just found the perfect music to listen to this summer, again thanks.

Congrats javabeans! I stop by often and love your blog. In addition to your postings, I love following all the comments. Thanks for all the music links. I've fallen behind on following k-pop, so I will check out these links. The QSS OST is one of my favorites! Again, congrats!!

You rock, sarahbeans! Your blog not only educates and inspires me, it makes me giggle (even guffaw at times). From you I've learnt to be bolder in my own K-related ramblings and to call things as they are instead of tip-toeing lest I offend people. In short, to be true to myself.

I love your wit no matter how acerbic. Don't change your style, deal?

Here's to 1,000,000 hits (with moi contributing at least 365 of them since I come here everyday). *muahk*

^ because i'm an idiot. sorry, it's fixed now!

umm. may i ask why is the link for rhyme bus's luv game and music of my life the same?

Congratulations! I've never left a comment before but I love your blog! Thanks for all your great posts!

Congratulations for keeping 500,000 K-fans (like me) alive! Thanks for your great blog!

sarah,
thank you for the music!! (I sound like an ABBA song..^^)

I have been in love with Clazziquai since I heard their songs for My Name is Kim Sam Soon! and has been forever in love with them ever since.
So great that they're getting more recognition now!
Because of fans like you...helping spread the lovee!!

Thanks!

thanks for maintaining a constantly updated site, i love your episode summaries the best. and your choice in music.. younha is great, i wouldn't consider liking her music either ..but there's some element about her that you can't just deny yourself from listening to it. haha. i think it's even amazing that she's only 19!

thanks again~!

I truly enjoy visiting your site.

One non-mainstream group you might want to consider is "Candyman". It's hard to find their stuff, but I love what I've heard so far.

Hahaha,

Now put on some ads and you're all set, :)

Thanks for the YOUNHA sample ... I recently watched her on Dream Concert, and I think she's bringing something different to the K-Music world which I like... and Congrats on your 1/2 Million

holy crap .. i didnt know clazziquai's musics were so GREAT. they are so soothingg!!! i only heard one song before in the drama my name is kim sam soon, but the new ones you posted are fabulous! THANKS :D

Wow you have so many music recommendations here. I am listening and writing down the names in order to purchase them later.

First time posting a comment, but definitely not the first time visiting your blog. I love your posts, and the music you put up (I download them all and put them in my iPod). You're site is very refreshing and your entries-summaries/comments/music always puts a smile on my face. Keep up the good work and thank you for putting some much time and effort into this website. :]

Hey!!!

Thanx for all the songs that u posted here!!!!...

Ive got a problem though, i cant seem to open younha's song "password 486" =(...
it just displays "error opening file"

hope i could somehow be able to open this song....

Thanx again and more power!

Marisse If the version in this site has a problem, there are load of other places on the net where you can find a working copy. For people with little or no Korean ,
http://www.esnips.com/_t_/kpop
is a good place to start. In theory, you have to sign up (free) to download rather than just play the online streams, but if you know, or learn, a little JavaScript and take a peek at the page source, it's not too difficult to download without supplying any particulars if you really want to.

But hey, why not get a legal copy and send some cash Youn Ha's way? I think she's the finest new pop-rock talent to emerge in recent years, and I like her so much I actually bought both versions of her first CD, even though most of the tracks are the same. The repackaged version comes with a cute little photo album (though why they superglued it to the CD case instead of making it a pull-out beats me) which is also great for people like me who need practice reading handwritten Hangul, since it has facsimile jottings by JH around the pix and lyrics. You can get the newer "repackaged" one (I think the original is sold out now) from YesAsia. Better still, click through to YesAsia from javabeans ad. on this site so that way you'll be supporting dramabeans financially as well as Youn Ha.

THANK YOU--really appreciate you for this site. I have to echo the remarks by 'Carol' up there. First time posting a comment but definitely not my first visit. Thanks again...

thanks for all the songs you posted here =)...
I am chinese, and i live in britain, but i love korean songs...and of course korean dramas.. when i was in hongkong, i watched a bit of that "hyena" drama...and i like some song on it... but i can't seem to find it anywhere! However i do know that it always came up when when the woman would cry...it was a sad song..quite slow.. "accustic" like.. do you know the song name??
Thanks again
