Disamperin aliran di Korea

Salah satu pengalaman yang gw dapatkan selama trip sebulan lamanya di Korea selama musim gugur ini adalah disamperin cult atau aliran tertentu. Jadi memang di Korea itu seperti jadi surga buat aliran-aliran agama baru tumbuh, mungkin udah pada pernah juga nonton dokumenter salah satu aliran gereja di Korea yang lumayan terkenal sesatnya. Gw gak tau kenapa pastinya banyak aliran-aliran baru atau aliran sesat muncul di Korea, ada beberapa hipotesis tapi ya masih hasil pemikiran gw aja. Dari jaman dulu sampe sekarang kayak masih gak berubah aja. Sebagai catatan, dulu salah satu aliran sesat sempat masuk ke lingkungan kampus tempat gw pertukaran pelajar di Korea. Di situ mereka emang nargetin mahasiswa asing. Modusnya adalah sebagai mahasiswa asing kita diajak volunteer, ada kelas bahasa, ada kunjungan ke panti jompo, dll. Nanti selama kegiatan itu kita akan pakai atribut tertentu, dan mengucapkan yel-yel terselubung yang dianggap bagian dari dokumentasi saja. Hasil dokumentasi berupa foto...

Songs I recommend you to listen so you won't miss out gems from Soundcloud

Sometimes I just roaming around Soundcloud to listen to more songs and varieties. And I want to recommend three songs that I've found and are my favs on Soundcloud lately.

(Let's pretend I'm behind this guy, waiting for my turn to check out the collection)

The first song is '아무것도 없었다는 듯이' by CyA


He is a bassist from ONEWE, and I found out he has a Soundcloud account just around late 2020 and I was just curious because he mentioned mixtape on the radio he attended. And this song is like...so good, so chill, and just easy and fun to listen to. The vibe it gives is like a chill night drive in the city full of lights.

The second song is 'Ummm...' by JOOAN X ESON


It was on an auto playlist while listening to CyA's songs, and this song came out. The slow simple and chill song (I'm guessing the genre is alternative RnB?? I don't know) with a minimalistic sound and pretty voices. It was just a love-at-the-first-listen. While writing this post, I actually looked up their names, and I just found out that they are members of a boy group called We In The Zone. Didn't know that. I think the more recent generation of Korean idols is having more exploration in their music. It's like they express more interest and passion by sharing these covers, self-made songs, etc. Well, I'm not saying the older generation didn't, I think before, we mostly got exposed to this 'passion' by the rappers of the group. But now, it's just more apparent and kinda norm these days. It's nice to see btw because then we got to enjoy so many gems out there yay.

And the last song to recommend is a very recently uploaded song. I think it was yesterday?

It is 'I Belong' by Jacob


He's a member of The Boyz. I actually got to listen to this yesterday because someone quoted the lyrics and it got me interested, so I just go to Soundcloud and listen to...this....beautiful song...

The instrument sounds simple but pretty and strong like a diamond type of music, if you know what I mean, I don't know how to explain this haha..It's like simply majestic sound, like that. I have to admit the lyrics are just perfecto, so vulnerable yet relatable. Accompanied by a simple singing technique by a cotton soft voice, which matches the song and the lyrics perfectly. It is nice to listen at night while lying in bed and just look back at your life. Haha.

So yeah these three are my recommendation for today! Go listen if you haven't 😌👌

Melihat Brunei

Image
Beberapa bulan lalu nemu tiket murah ke Brunei, terus akhirnya langsung impulsif beli malam itu juga. Belum pernah ke Brunei sebelumnya, cuma denger sedikit aja tentang negaranya gimana jadi ini seperti tidak ada bayangan dan ekspektasi akan seperti apa.  Inget kalo dulu sempet nonton variety show ‘Battle Trip’ episodenya Roy Kim dan kawan-kawannya ke Brunei, jadi cuma itu aja yang jadi pegangan bakalan mau eksplor apa di sana.  Lucu ya padahal ni negara dekat banget sama Indonesia, tapi gw gatau banyak tentang negara ini. Cuma tahu Brunei itu kesultanan, terus negara kaya. Sejujurnya gw juga baru tahu tentang prince nya yang lagi rame karena baru saja menikah belakangan ini tuh dari adek gw (mungkin algoritmanya gak nyampe di gw aja). Jadi kepala gw kosong siap diisi sama first-hand experience di Brunei. Inilah yang gw tangkep dari Brunei dari yang gw rasain sendiri dan dari informasi yang diperoleh dengan ngobrol sama warloknya.  Petugas bandara yang detail Pas baru sam...
