Alpha/JYP Audition Experience and Happy Chinese New Year 2012

Hi everyone!



FIRSTLY, DO FOLLOW ME ON TWITTER @MUSICNAS FOR MORE LATEST DREAM HIGH AND KPOP UPDATES! I AM ALSO A MUSICIAN AND A BLOGGER!
CHECK OUT MY YOUTUBE CHANNEL NASMERTHEGUITARIST

It's been a long time since I blogged I know, apologies because there has been a lot of work for me to burn of my list of stress schedules haha :p.
Before I go any further, HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR TO ALL!
새해 복 많이받으세요. 모두들 건강 행복한 2012년 이되길바래요 ! 
( Please receive a lot of luck and blessings this new year and have a happy and healthy life for the year 2012 )
Correct me if my translation is wrong. I am not a Korean however I do learn Korean Language. My vocabulary is still quite limited though :X.
Okay this post will be mostly concentrated on my experience on the JYP/Alpha Audition. A reader which goes by the name of "lala" which can be seen from my chatbox on the right requested me to blog about it so yeah, I'll blog about it for you and for everyone ^_^. Hope it will be a good blog.
This photo was taken from the Member's Audition in December 2011. It was a good experience thought the waiting time can definitely kill your sanity if you do not know how to manage it. However, it was all worth the wait.
Arrived at MDIS Queenstown Campus, which is the Audition's venue, went to proceed on to the Auditorium there. I was thrilled to see so many participants/auditionees taking part in the audition. Of course though, they all have dreams of becoming a Kpop Artiste with some being stronger. For me, I have a very strong passion for this, I practiced my song with high effort and hardworking to pull of a good audition performance to the judges. By the way, the judges are all from Korea who have trained professional and popular artistes like TVXQ, SNSD , SHINEE, etc etc.
Criteria they were looking for
1) Hardworking
2) Commitment
3) Attitude
4) Talent
These are what i know but I do not know if there may be more, so always do your best at the audition and show your best attitude there to show a good impression to the judges. You can apply these to future auditions in Singapore, By the way, if any of you do not know, Alpha Entertainment will have auditions yearly in Singapore. So yes, do get prepared but as said, there is no need to put in too much money into singing/dancing/other genres just for this audition. However, of course if you have the passion for singing, dancing or the genre you want, you can of course take lessons.
Okay back to in view as 1st person of me... Arrived there 8.30am, oh yes very early to wake up as need to warm up vocals, etc etc and to make sure i don't get a starving stomach there. Waited in the auditorium for my turn.
We were called in groups of 10 and 2 groups were called into the small room by the side of the auditorium at once. So yes, of course, the tension gets higher and nervous levels rose. Then we all sang and dance. I got to tell you, Singapore DO HAVE TALENT. Some had some really good vocals and dance. Then I sang FT Island's Sarang Sarang Sarang 사랑사랑사랑 there. I sang till finished which ended around 50seconds + so i was quite happy.
Side-tracking, I also went for the Miss A Audition and sang Jar Of Hearts by Christina Perri and i knew I definitely sang 1 minute full as i did practiced and record myself and when they cut me, it was around there.
It's a good sign but of course, it does not mean anything. To me, just a motivation i guess :p.
Okay back to main story, sang through it, done, we say thank you and that's it.
Results would be out in late feb to march though so it was kinda ">_<" for me for the results haha.

Haha before the Alpha/JYP audition, I attended this 'Ace Your Audition Workshop' by InQueenz by Genecia Luo assisted by Qiqi.
I did not know that my clothes which i thought did suit me really did not suit me. :(
I do have to agree my old long hairstyle as seen in the image makes me look dull till now with my new hairstyle I look more fresh and better. Haha I think i had the most photoshoots there >_<! Needed to keep changing clothes. Side-tracking, I think looks(image) is part of commitment so having good quality there helps in the audition. Then they told us to sing, which i did expect, but still shocking haha.
Yeah so bought a few things before the audition which i sacrificed a lot of my $$ for T___T. However, worth it not only for the audition but as an individual.

See me in the front row in white shirt? Haha I appeared in TNP ( The New Paper ). Argh i think i was smiling like an idiot hahaha >_<! 
Then 14th January came the Alpha/JYP Audition. The atmosphere there was more intense and the seriousness level that I feel or can be felt by everyone was really really high. Called me weird or what, but seeing the eyes of some of the individuals there they had that "hunger" for the audition. Of course, I had too as really practiced so hard. I can hear some super awesome vocals being sung in the auditorium, did not know who it was, but that girl was good. Even in the toilet, people were practicing there haha.
Okay so as usual had to wait for my turn but this time was even much more longer waiting time. darn. haha.
Went in and sang Aerosmith I Don't Want To Miss A Thing. One different thing in this audition is that instead of 20 people in the same room ( 2groups ), there were 30 people, so the tension is even higher.
These are the songs i sang for the audition.
I think that is about all I am going to say.
There has been many repititive questions about the audition so will type some of the answers to the questions.
1) Those shortlisted, are they in Alpha/JYP already?
Answer: No, being shortlisted doesn't really mean anyting, except they will have an advantage.
2) Will more people be shortlisted?
Answer: Yes, more will be added into the pool of shortlisted contestants
3) When will the results come out?
Answer: Around late feb, but in the 2010 auditions, it came out in march. So it is possible to be released in March.
4) How will you be contacted?
Answer: Phone/Email. Be patient haha ^_^. Fightiiiing!
5) How will we know who are being offered contract/shortlisted?
Answer: You could check out Alpha Entertainment's Facebook Fanpage.
If there are any questions, do feel free to ask by emailing to me at nasmer@gmail.com or chatbox or comment box of this post. Might have missed some. 
However, remember I am not alpha's staff, or know everything about the audition. So, I DO NOT know everything. I repeat, I DO NOT know everything about the audition. 
The best way is just to wait for Alpha's Entertainment announcement on their Facebook Fanpage ^_^. It's what I am doing now.
If there are any errors on this post, do send me in an email or just comment.

Do share your experience in the comment box of this post or chatbox ^_^
Thank You

War with MBLAQ


Hey guys! 
Back with another post. This will be my last post before my next post next week!
Got lots of work i've got to be committed to so can't really blog =(
Just a typical kpop post this time around
Why I am posting this?
Because this new song by MBLAQ 터이틀곡 존쟁이야 ( It's War) is so dam awesome! 
The vocals were so much improved from last time, pure clearly spoken out emotional vocals.
The music was good, the bass, the violins the rap the whole composition of it was good!
The cheography? Speechless. It's an awesome dance! 대박 ( Romanized as Daebak which means best in korean ) 
The acting by all members were good especially Lee Joon who was superb! His facial expressions and actions executed were flawless. He makes the short MV look so real! I seriously think he should go in acting.
Don't you all agree? especially calling out to all mblaq fans ^_^
나는 여자친구를 없어요. ( I don't have a girlfriend ) 
ok that was random lol.
Check out the videos of MBLAQ below!








They are good aren't they? To readers who don't listen to kpop. 
Your reasons
1) I don't understand korean, why should i listen to it?
2) They copy americans.
3) The artistes are slaves, do they make money?
4) Their music sucks and are noisy.
Okay wait let me get this straight. Let's define music, not the definition, as in what should music be defined as against language.
Music is a GOD given gift, we have to give it definite respect, MUSIC IS A UNIVERSAL LANGUAGE. 
Okay that is somehow ma definition of music against language.
I know many of you do not understand korean, but as the definition says, music is a UNIVERSAL language and there are tons of subs out there to understand the song more.
They DO NOT copy americans, i repeat, they DO NOT copy americans. If they did, they would be charged for plagarism already so yeah. Both music world are awesome in their own ways. Do you know music was from from Classical Music?
Artistes in the kpop industry work very hard to earn for their hard work, they HAVE passion for music and they LOVE music. If not, why would be there in the first place and endure all the hardwork?
Their music suck and are noisy, well it all depends on your taste to music, so i won't comment on this part hahaha ^__^
All these are purely not based on facts, but gathered from my own research. So these can either be classified as opinions or facts to you. You decide :) 


What should i blog next? Tell me ^_^ You can tweet me, facebook me, email me or just type on the chatbox on the right side of this blog.

A picture to share, A Tip to Share, A Love to Share

There is this guy and girl are friends who have known each other for quite sometime. Let's take this story in the view of the guy. The guy developed feelings for her but the girl doesn't show any signs that she has feelings for him. He decided to confess his love to her as his feelings are exploding like a volcano erupting lava with overflowing flames. So they went out one day together, had a usual ordinary dinner together. He wanted to confess to her but he was so shy making him tremble but he really really likes her. However, he can't just do it. She went to the toilet and her phone was left on there. Fortunately, he had a good idea. He took her phone and search for his contact on her phone and rename it to "Will You Be My Girlfriend?(:" and quickly put it back in place. They both went home and he picked up his phone and dialled her number.
And thus on her phone, it appeared(refer to the picture abve)
Will she decline or answer?
By the way, isn't this sweet?




Hey all!
Back with a new post.
This will be just one picture and one paragraph and that's it!
If you love this and wants to save, be sure to share and/or tweet this post and my blog  too ^__^. Do leave a comment in the chatbox or on this post itself!
Cheers! Chinese New Year is approaching be sure to shop during this festive season!

The food has its own way of tempting temptation

Hello all!
This is just going to be a short post!


Piak piak piak! Did it hurt? OF COURSE IT SHOULD HURT! This is not fake, what you are seeing in front of you is real! Oh man, I myself are very tempted to go to Fishmarket Manhattan now in any Singapore outlet and get this "cheap"(affordable) meal that will be CONFIRMED DELICIOUS as with my previous experiences with Fishmarket Manhattan.
I think it is going to get packed though, but well I think can Ta Pao(take-away), but can ta pao or not? I am not sure, will just try if the place is too full!
