How Charice Pempengco Wowed Korea and Me

November 10, 2007

Perhaps my Twitter followers might have read this and that I was gonna do a post about this girl. I’ve actually even drawn an editorial cartoon about her. Well, for some…no, a lot of stupid reasons, each time I open my Write page, I was always distracted by my submissive concentration due to lack of oxygen to my brain. Sounds familiar?

Worshipping an idol–by drawing her. Editorial Cartoon. “Phem-Phin-Kho”

Imagine a guy wearing his 80-pesos-worth eyeglasses gormandizing his all-time favorite Sinigang na Baboy in front of his laptop on a small glass center table. You’re pretty sure (and suspicious) that he’s watching something [decent, you pervert :-)].

Okay. A Korean boyband in a talent variety show. All good-looking and f*cking talented. That’s–err–nice. So?

Then suddenly, you hear quick sniffing coughs that sound like asthma, then you see him forcefully blurts out some 60 something grains of rice and other chewables on his laptop screen and shouts a loud ‘SHYET!‘on a 14 year old girl belting out “And I’m Telling You I’m not Going” It was only a week ago when I discovered the news about a certain young Pinay who ‘wowed’ South Korean superstars in a variety show. I was hesitant at first about the news. One, we’re only known in Korea for their own convenience of cheap English proficiency education in the Philippines and two, as far as the entertainment industry is concerned, we’re just unknown there since the Korean entertainment industry focuses more international market to China, Japan, Singapore, and Thailand. Then I landed on Maruja’s blog post and stumbled on a rather familiar name: Charice Pempengco.

I was like… who the hell is Charice Pempengco? (to think her name is rather familiar)

I just couldn’t believe how the Korean audience, including the members of Super Junior (a very popular Korean boyband)in that show (Star King) was astonished by Charice’s very powerful singing. I mean, standing ovation?

Wait, is that a kid singing?
