[Reaction] Bigstar (빅스타) - Shine A Moonlight (달빛소나타)

Bigstar is finally having their comeback after 2 years and I can not explain to you how excited I am! (Tho if you follow me on my personal twitter you may have noticed how I have not talked about anything but them for the last week)

I became their fan even before the official debut and my love for them just keeps growing.
So the new MV is out and you can see my reaction in the video but I also wanna write a little more since I didn't really say much in the video. I'll be honest, I had to concentrate real hard not to cry. Not because the MV is sad or anything but because I'm just so happy my boys are finally back! As you can see, I failed

The setting of the MV is really nice, nothing big or flashy (except the car, please take me for a ride Raehwan, thank you) I wonder how awkward it was to film in the car. There's no other car there, did they just rent a road to film on? Is there a "Rent-a-Road" service in K-Pop like how so many groups use the same brick room all the time? I need a BTS video of that. Who is the girl in the MV and why is it not me? I want Raehwan to hold my hand!
Now I don't know when they filmed the MV but there's a part in the lyrics about the full moon BUT THERE IS NO FULL MOON AND IT HURTS ME. I know it's not that important but then at the same time it is
The whole full moon lyrics don't make sense to me anyways, the English is a bit...weird. And I don't understand why, there's so many people in Brave Ent who speak fluent English, there's 3 members in Bigstar alone who are pretty decent, did they really not notice that the grammar is off? The rest of the lyrics...I can't say anything about them yet because I don't know enough Korean and I don't trust Google Translate.
Even tho the video just came out I'm already looking forward to a dance practice because I really want to learn it, I'm a sucker for dance practice videos ;AAAA;

You can bet that this song is going to end up in my monthly Top 5 blog, I really, REALLY love it!

If you want to see a rating, mine would be
Song: 9.5/10
Video: 9/10
Dance: 10/10

KKC - August

Welcome to Kyra's K-pop Charts where I talk about my Top 5 releases of the previous month.
This list is in order of release dates and the rating is just  my personal opinion.
Feel free to comment your favorite songs of last month below.




Name: Come Closer (이리로)
Artist: BADKIZ
Release Date: August 7 (MV released on Sept. 1)
Rating: 8/10

Now this song is different from previous Badkiz releases and at first I wasn't sure I liked it, but after the 3rd listen I was in love. Check out Come Closer for yourself and while you're on Badkiz' channel go check out the dance practice as well:

Name: Beautiful Liar
Artist: VIXX LR (빅스LR)
Release Date: August 17
Rating: 10/10

VIXX' first sub-unit LR has my OTP of the group in it so there was like 0% chance that I would not totally love this song. I have a huge thing for dark concepts, Leo's voice is made to make me cry and Ravi's raps sometimes just hit me in the face. This is basically what this song is, check it out if you haven't:

Name: Allday Allnight(볼래)
Artist: Jakop (야콥), Raina (레이나), ￦uNo(우노), DAYDAY(데이데이)
Release Date: August 18
Rating: 9/10

While I've never been in any of the groups' fandoms I've always liked their music and I'm especially happy to see Simon and David together because we all know it's been too long since DMTN. Personally I think Raina could have gotten more exposure but...that's probably just me. Anyways, check out the video:

Name: Where you at? (어디야)
Artist: JJCC (제이제이씨씨)
Release Date: August 20
Rating: 9/10

This song is such a jam omg! Leo got me into JJCC and I hate her for that because loving them is so painful, they're so funny, they're talented, they're awesome. This comeback is probably my fave because the song is great, the dance is fun, the new members are super cute, E.co looks like he jumped right out of a manga and Eddy has red hair and anyone who knows me, knows red hair makes me go weak. Look for yourself:

Name: DARK PANDA(다크팬더)
Artist: Hyolyn, Zico, Paloalto(효린, 지코, 팔로알토)

Release Date: August 26
Rating: 9/10

As I said before, I really like dark concepts so of course a song called "DARK Panda" would immediately get my attention. I love Hyorin's voice so much, she's my fave member in Sistar (whose songs are often not suited to show off her vocals) I think she matches well with Paloalto. And of course Zico's rap is awesome, there's something about him that makes me want to drop to the floor and kiss his feet (no i'm not being serious here, I hate feet. But you know what I mean) Here's the video:
