My 2014 Fave Solo Songs from K-pop Girl Group's Members

This will be my second year doing a top 20 list of my favourite songs from K-pop girl groups, but while I'm finalizing the chart, I thought maybe I should post something about solo songs from member (or former member) of K-pop girl groups too. There are some pretty impressive songs this year so I would list here two standouts which are my personal favourites, and both songs happen to be their respective solo debut. Who are they? Read on to find out.

Nicole

Nicole was a former member of KARA. I'm not sure what led to her leaving her former agency and, ultimately, her group but one thing I'm sure of is that I like her more being a solo artist than a member of a girl group. Somehow I always felt like she was being overshadowed by the other members of KARA and only now I can truly see her talent. I love her debut song, 'Mama', and she has a nice voice which I never noticed before too. She can also rap and has great dancing skills. I love Nicole and seriously I think she has huge potential to become a successful solo artist, so I wish her all the best with her solo career. She was born and raised in the US so may I suggest she expand to promote her music internationally with English songs?

Watch 'Mama' by Nicole.

What to watch? ~ 2014 movies: December

Apologies for this late post but better late than never right? We are finally at the final month of 2014. How's the year have been for you? Before we step into 2015, which will probably be one of the big year in movies, let's take a look at some interesting movies that are coming (or may already have been released) in December. Let's start!


1. The Pyramid

The Pyramid had received a lot of negative reviews from critics, and to be honest, the trailer for this movie didn't show much promise either. But I include it in this list anyway because I'm curious about it. What is it about? I saw a glimpse of some kind of humanoid creature in the trailer, so are there monsters or creatures living inside the pyramid? Or is the plot lean more towards the supernatural side like ghosts and spirits? My curiosity that had piqued my interest towards this movie, but as I mentioned before, it had received a lot of negative reviews, so I'm still thinking whether to watch this in the cinema or not. Directed by Grégory Levasseur and starred Ashley Hinshaw, Denis O'Hare and James Buckley, The Pyramid was released in cinemas on December 5, 2014.


2. The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies

I've watched the first two movies in the The Hobbit movie series in the cinemas, so it would be silly not to catch this final installment in the cinema too. The trailer looks good and the ending to the second movie left us with a cliffhanger, so there's definitely something to look forward to. From the trailer to the name of the movie, they somewhat alluded to a big war, I guess we can expect more action in this movie then? Martin Freeman, Richard Armitage, Ian McKellen, Evangeline Lilly, Orlando Bloom, Luke Evans, Benedict Cumberbatch, Lee Pace, Aidan Turner and a lot other actors would all be back for one final round in Middle Earth, and you catch them all in action in movie theaters starting December 17, 2014.
