Fly to the sky...

No, not me. It's a Korean duo that "mountain tortoise" me had just discovered after watching the Korean variety show, Ya Shim Man Man. I just lurve Brian... he's so cute, bragging about what a good kisser he is and talking about his dating escapades when he lived in the USA.

Who are they? Korean duo, Fly To The Sky (FTTS) debuted on Nov 12, 1999 and consists of Brian and Fany (also known as Hwanhee - 환희). Both of them are born in January 1982. Brian is 7 days older than Hwanhee (I just cannot bring myself to type "Fany" again). Brian went to Rutgers University in New Jersey, where he is from and his parents are casino dealers - so exciting!!!. Don't know much about Hwanhee cos I haven't seen him on any shows yet. Most people would prefer Hwanhee cos he looks like he's got more attitude and his voice is different from Brian. I like Brian cos he's the regular guy, not much image thing going on and a decent voice. He seems to even have the negative traits of the regular guy. Maybe he reminds me of Geoffrey... haha... But who cares if he is regular or cool... Any guy who can sing with that much feeling is in my book of outstanding males ;)

I am currently in love with 3 of their songs, cos that's all I've been able to get my hands on.

1. 비 (Bi - Blood)
2. 남자답게 (Namjadapgeh - Like a man)
3. 습관 (Supgwan - Habit)

If you listen to 비 at first and don't find it at all beautiful, hold your horses, wait for the chorus, I promise you will feel shivers and the warm wave of love wash on you. That's how I felt when I first heard the chorus... then I was frantically searching for it. It was even labelled with the wrong title. I am so lucky to have found it. I wasn't sure if it was the song I wanted when I heard the first 2 verses, then once the chorus started, I had the chills... I was like "Aaahh... yesss...". How often do you get to feel like that? Hehe! Don't answer that!!!

Meanwhile, my Emule is not coorperating, so I can't listen to all their albums and tell you if they are really that good, consistent, bla bla bla... I'm hoping to finish previewing their 6th album, Transition (released early this year, told you I was a "mountain tortoise") and if I like it, when I get my job, I am gonna send HMV.co.jp some Yen for it. Hehe!

For now, everyone can listen to 비, courtesy of OrientPearl's World. But I'd still say that you should go out an get a copy of their album, since they're such lovely guys. We must not let beautiful men become victims of piracy. Hehe! Seek out their MVs on YouTube. You won't be disappointed.

Confession: Though I support Brian, I can't help thinking Hwanhee has a beautiful voice too. They're both so different. So it's actually hard to just like one... Hehe!
