외국인학생들이 좋아하는 한국대중가요

 
 We have frequently heard about the spread of Korean Fever, Hanlyu around the world and can easily find foreign students who like Korean popular culture on campus. This reporter asked some of them ‘what is your favorite Korean pop song?’ and ‘what do you enjoy singing these days?’

I am concerned about physical appearance. If I like a singer’s looks I start to like their songs. I really like 2PM’s Again & Again because I like 2PM, a dance group that consists of six members.  I love Nichkhun the most.  When I entered Korea last winter vacation, I saw him at the airport. I wanted to take a picture with him but I was not able to do. I just got his autograph.  But in a singing room, noraebang, I usually sing songs by FT Island with my friends. It is easy to sing their songs. I like the lyrics of other countries’ pop songs, but I like Korean popular musicians and Korean pop songs!

I discovered Korean pop music through Korean dramas, especially Gaeuldonghwa. It is easier to sing along with songs on a drama’s original sound tracks. These days, I usually sing Yi Norae (it means this song) by 2AM, a four men group, in a noraebang because it is easy to sing. Of course, I enjoy listening and singing 2PM’s songs. I frequently listen to Korean hip-hop songs. These days, my favorite song is Run by Epik High, a three men hip hop group. I have heard Korean rapper Outsider’s songs. But Korean hip-hop musicians’ look different than I expected I thought they would be dressed in gangster style clothing but instead they always wear nice clothes like fashionable suits.  

 
Shu Jing, (Sophomore,Dept. of Clothing and Textiles)

Chinese students who come to study in Korea usually like Korean music, but I do not frequently listen to Korean pop songs because I am not interested in Korean popular songs. On the other hand, I normally listen to music in Korean dramas. These days, I watch Men over Flowers so I listen to the music from the drama. And I like Korean women singers’ songs. So I have many songs by ZIA, a women solo singer on my MP3 player. My favorite song is Broke up Today by Yunha, a female piano rocker.
