Have you seen any other Korean variety show with so many beautiful girls? 영웅호걸 had a slow start, but it's been getting slightly better. Hopefully it doesn't get canceled early like Family Outing season 2. The show is based on 2 male MC's and 12 female celebrities that split into two teams and compete.
The best part about the show is that i found new interesting celebrities. Here are my top picks:
This won't be an extended review of the product because it can get very long. Simply put, download this product.

It's freaking amazing! I downloaded Gallery 3D for my Droid X and it links (syncs) directly with my Picasa Webalbum. Google already gives you 1 gig or storage space, and i have only used up 7% of it after uploading the majority of pictures i have on my computer since 2000.
The Picasa program also has a face recognition ability where it scans all your photos and shows cropped portraits of people you can tag and name. That was pretty scary - but it groups up the same people together. It's like a program from one of those CSI TV shows.
The best thing about the online album is being able to change the settings to private or public. Instead of having to burn DVD's of your memorable pictures every-so-often, by putting it on Picasa, you can relax.
This product just outshines Facebook by a mile. The Picasa software which integrates with the Picasa webalbum allows for very easy photo uploads.
The only flaw i have witnessed so far, is the folder hierarchy. You can add as many folders as you want, but can't make folders within folders. I generally like to organize my photos by Year and Month. I.e.:
2001:
- Jan
- Feb (etc.)
But in Picasa, you can't do that, so it sucks. I ended up having to upload all my pics from 2001, into 2001 - merging all the pictures from different events together.
Overall this thing is 9/10. Even if you don't have a smartphone to take the experience to the next level, just being able to back up all your photos online very easily is well worth it.
I added a cheesy self proclaiming "About Me" section and started to use "labels" for topics that i frequently write about. Too lazy to go over all of my posts since 2002 so i only went back a few months. One of these days.. i will go back and label everything.. one of these days.. 650+ posts to go over.. ugh.
I also downloaded "Youtube Downloader" because it seems every video i link here on my blog end up getting deleted or something. Getting tired of broken links. Seriously!
Probably not the best translation for the song title.. but it literally translates to "I eat just as well". The song lyrics tell a story of a breakup and the guy is revealing that he is able to eat just fine without the girl. There are two guys singing the song, first is 창민 from 2AM and 이현 from Homme. Both excellent singers - i wish i had that kind of voice. For those of you that want to Google here is the info:
Artist name: 창민
Song name: 밥만 잘 먹더라
This song is awesome. I just don't like how it ends. It talks about forgetting about a girl - then at the ends it talks about not being able to forget. Well at least 95% of the lyrics are comforting and encouraging. :)
Lyrics + Translation:
사랑이 떠나가도 가슴에 멍이 들어도
한 순간뿐이더라 밥만 잘 먹더라
죽는 것도 아니더라
눈물은 묻어둬라 당분간은 일만 하자
죽을 만큼 사랑한 그녀를 알았단
그 사실에 감사하자
이미 지난 일 말하면 뭐해 돌릴 수 없는데
괜히 아픈 가슴만 다시 들춰내서 뭐해 쓸데 없게
태어나서 딱 세 번만 울게 허락된다는데
괜히 허튼 일들에 아까운 눈물 낭비 말자 오
사랑이 떠나가도 가슴에 멍이 들어도
한 순간뿐이더라 밥만 잘 먹더라
죽는 것도 아니더라
눈물은 묻어둬라 당분간은 일만 하자
죽을 만큼 사랑한 그녀를 알았단
그 사실에 감사하자
아주 가끔 니 생각이 나서 슬퍼지려 하면
친구들과 술 한잔 정신 없이 취하련다 다 잊게
미워한다고 뭐 달라지나 그냥 사랑할게
단지 볼 수 없단 걸 견딜 만큼만 생각할게 오
사랑이 떠나가도 가슴에 멍이 들어도
한 순간뿐이더라 밥만 잘 먹더라
죽는 것도 아니더라
눈물은 묻어둬라 당분간은 일만 하자
죽을 만큼 사랑한 그녀를 알았단
그 사실에 감사하자
바람이 지나간다 시리게 나를 울린다
억지로 참아봐도 자꾸 목이 메어
니 이름을 불러본다
잊어도 못 잊겠다 너를 지울 수가 없다
남자답게 웃으며 보내야 하는데
자꾸만 난 울고 있다
~Chorus Start~
Even if my love leaves me, even if my heart is broken
It's only a moment, and i eat just fine
It's not like i'm dying
Let's burry the tears, let's just work for the time being
Having loved someone so much
Let's just be thankful for that
~Chorus End~
What's the point in talking about the past, you can't change it
You'll just get depressed, it's useless thinking about it
After you're born, you are allowed to cry 3 times
Let's not waste those tears on dumb issues
~Chorus~
Occasionally when i think of you and i begin to sorrow
I get drunk with friends to forget it
What changes if i hate you? I'll just love you
Just enough so that the fact that i can't see you doesn't sadden me
~Chorus~
A wind blows by and it makes me cry
I try to hold back but i get teary
So i call out your name
Even if i try i can't forget you, i can't erase you
Even though i must let you go like a man
I continue to cry
Ugh, i did not make my weigh in goal. Could be due to gaining muscle mass but can't be sure. I should start using a measuring tape. Honestly, i feel discouraged, but must keep fighting!
First impressions. Having all contacts instantly added using Google contacts.. is like the best thing so far. I remember having to manually input these numbers long time ago.
Second, the hard buttons at the bottom of the phone seem to be very sturdy. I remember when i went to see a demo at the store, the buttons seemed cheap and loose.. but it's not the case. I wonder if Verizon fixed a few things with these last batch of phones they shipped.
Third, volume for speakers is loud and clear. Not sure what all the fuss was about. I'm sure with 2.2 it'll be even louder.
Fourth, speed.. it's lighting fast. seriously.
This is my first smart phone, so I'm going to be spending the rest of the day playing around with it.
