FAREWELL, OUR MINHYUK

Good evening! Updating to enlighten you, who might have not noticed, on Music Bank… about to let go of their #1 sunshine source – Kang Minhyuk

As you may still remember, earlier this year, the heart-of-music-shows-MCs aka duo Park Bogum x Irene abandoned their position of Music Bank hosts after the half-year special episode. I was heartbroken because I literally lived to see those two interact. Actually, I live for anything Music Bank related since KBS World is the only korean channel available in Portugal.

I accepted it quite well though, I figured, yeah, of course they have other projects, those are their priority so they should focus on those. Also, it’s good to see new faces from time to time so bring on those new MCs!

The Solbin x Minhyuk duo was born. 

Of course, ever since they began hosting Music Bank they’ve been practically chased by comparison between them and Borene coming from all sorts of Kpop websites and fan accounts. Honestly speaking, even though I loved Borene, Solbin and Minhyuk seemed much more comfortable with each other from the start and was really satisfied that the production had came up with such pair!

Now imagine how I got when today, after a busy weekend, I finally got to watch the recording of last Friday’s Music Bank and at the very end reALLY LIKE AFTER THEY ANNOUNCED WHO GOT FIRST PLACE MINHYUK GOES ON AN AUTOMATOC EMOTIONAL RANT AMD SOLBIN STARTS TO TEAR UP LIKE SHES EVEN TRYING TO HIDE AND JIMIN SUDDENLY SHOWS UP WITH A BOUQUET OF FLOWERS FOR MINHYUK AND AT THIS POINT IM LIKE YES SOLBIN CAN RELATE BC IMMA TEAR UP TOO

As expected his leave is due to schedule conflict, which is totally understandable considering Minhyuk is a part of CNBLUE. It really just broke my heart to see Solbin crying because you could tell she was truly sad about seeing him leave. If you watched the show regularly Im sure you noticed their proximity was legit, never seemed staged to me. 

BUT FEAR NOT OUR SOLBIN THERE IS ANOTHER MAN ON HIS WAY TO ACCOMPANY YOU

OH MY GOD THE MEMBERS OF LABOUM MUST BE SO JEALOUS

LEE SEO WON WILL BE THE NEW MUSIC BANK MC

Sounds familiar? Well…

  
YES

YES IT IS

LEE SEO WON 

AKA

NO JIK

OUR JIIIIIIIIIK

I’m so excited to see him next to our Solbin every Friday 💜 Wish this boy the best of luck on his debut as an MC, hope you stay with Solbin for a long time~~

 

SEPTEMBER 14TH | CNBLUE “CINDERELLA” COMEBACK

On the past 14th of September, 2015, CNBLUE made their long-awaited comeback with the album 2gether which included the title track 신데렐라 (Cinderella). Click here to watch their MV for the song 신데렐라.
The song’s lyrics express a man’s desire to be with the woman he loves however, she keeps running away. This is one of the things I love about CNBLUE, they are very skilled when it comes composing and I love how the words sound so smooth with the melody. I also find CNBLUE particularly special because they’re an actual band and not a boy group, which allows them to make more unique and pop-rock-ish tracks. Of course, non of this would be possible if it wasn’t for Yonghwa’s and Jonghyun’s vocals all the members’ talents for the instruments they play.
The music video is also very cute and quite original, I really like how it matches the story behind the lyrics! Don’t forget to click the link above the watch their music video!
This post is mainly about the title track but don’t forget to check out the other songs in CNBLUE’s album 2gether and show them lots of love~~
