Karaoke

Hi !

I made a karaoke-like video for  Wonder Girls's song  Be my Baby . 


It is only an experimental one , so there are might be some defects  ( sorry about that ) that I will try to fix in the future .

I am learning Korean so memorizing song lyrics is very useful for me . This is one of the reason I am doing the videos .

Please , check it out !

Probably next I will do FT Island's Love Love Love song , cause it's seems a little easier .

Leave comments here on under the youtube video if you have some suggestions or request for future songs .

thanks and enjoy ! ^^

Gayageum

Have you heard of this Korean tradition instrument called the Gayageum ( also Kayagŭm ) ? You might have seen it in some Korean movies or dramas - it is a string instrument , mostly played by women , very similiar to the Chinese Guzheng and the Japanese koto .

I wrote an article about it in Explore Asia blog . You can read it here and learn more about this instrument  - http://lets0exploreasia.wordpress.com/2012/01/08/gayageum/
