  BEST ALBUM: BLACK OUT by Woo (Hip-hop/rap)                                                   Album cover: BLACK OUT  If you are a fan of Korean R&B and Hip-hop then among the lot that have been released till date this year, there are two albums which you absolutely cannot and SHOULD NOT miss out on. One is DPR Live’s ‘Is anybody out there?’ and the second is Woo Won Jae’s (now known as Woo) ‘BLACK OUT’, which is also our pick as the best album that was released in August. The album was released out of nowhere on with little or no promotion but it was received so well by everyone and we believe that it’s the best work of Woo’s so far. Woo’s messages across the songs are quite mature and raw about how he has reflected on his past self, present as well his regrets over the years of his musical journey with reference to his relationship with his clos...

The Korean Film Industry in recent years has upgraded to a level that it competes with Hollywood. A highly developed and industrialised country with ultra modern lifestyle, the film industry has used every technology possible to make the best action and thriller movies. As a fan of K-dramas and K-movies, we EeZeEe girls have picked up our favourite action movies the Indian audience ought to watch. The list is in chronological order.  1. The Thieves (2012) An 2012 action comedy with a star cast, famous all over Asia and the eight highest grossing film in the Korean Film Industry. Kim Soo Hyun, Jun Ji Hyun and Kim Hye Soo are actors and actresses we see in every other drama and they have a huge fan base worldwide. Eight years back they were as phenomenal as they are now.  This movie is set in South Korea and Hong Kong. A group of thieves from South Korea collaborte with another group of thieves from Hong Kong under their master Macau Park to carry out their biggest heist- to ste...

Remembering the first time KoiZora hit the North East Indian market in 2009 and how we went crazy over Hiro with his white hair. The white hair trend instantly became a hit in our region with boys carrying the hair colour and hairstyle as well. We cried our eyes out when Hiro died in the movie. He became our favourite, got us into Japanese movies and dramas and thats how we discovered many amazing movies like Crows Zero, Kimi Ni Todoke, Attack on the Titan etc. Being his fan for years, we never thought we'd face a day when he'd actually leave. Fans all over the world are shattered in disbelieve.  Reports have it that he died of suicide and officials have not yet released all the details. He was found hanging in his room and seems to have left behind a note which has not yet been revealed. Team EeZeEe hopes his soul is in peace now and that a deeper investigation is done. We believe in the Japanese Authority.  Further, lets look into his past work and the legacy he left behind....

Kim Ji Hyun also known as Golden has won The Voice of Korea 2020 (3rd season) on 10th July, and you know the best part is, he was in Team BoA. Isn't that cute? He made his debut as G.Soul in 2015 under JYP Entertainment. Two years later when H1gher Music was launched by Jay Park, he joined H1gher Music. Last year in December, he changed his stage name to Golden. He is Korean American and is known for his strong vocals. Jay Park calls him the R&B King which he for sure is. His early hits are Excuses and Where do we go from here.  We EeZeEe have been a fan of him for a long time now. Last year he dropped his latest EP Hate Everything which became a international instantly. He also reposted our cover of his title track "Hate Everything" which you can check in our Instagram Highlights (we will always hold that close to our hearts). As you might be curios to dig into his songs, we have again made the job easier for you all. We have selected the best songs of Golden which w...

We have got all the time to Netflix and chill or may I say, "binge-on-Kdramas". We have access to the best Kdramas on Netflix and we couldn't be more thankful. Crash landing on You stole my heart and crushed it so bad that I could re-watch it all over again. Likewise, Hospital Playlist took me back to schooldays and college days making me realize that true friendship does last forever. But, hold your horses everyone. lets take a deeper dive. I am going to present you the best K-dramas that are so good but sadly you wont find them in Netflix. However, do not worry. You can watch them on Kissasian or Viki.  Without further ado, here is my list. 1 . World of the Married (Highest rated drama in Korean Cable Television history) I am not a night owl but the day I started watching this drama, I stayed up all night and watched 8 episodes at a go. The drama is about a well off married couple who have a son and live a happy life until the wife finds out about her husband's illi...

Blackpink is the Revolution!!  BlackPink has driven the world crazy with their new hit How You Like That. They are breaking records and the internet. the BBC, BillBoards, Youtube and all the major news channels are talking about how a South Korean K-pop girl group just made 5 records.

I just fell in love with it immediately and I am sure Blinks all over t...
