i don't think that it's weird at all. i listen to korean music and i just sing along with the words that i do remember and can pronounce... hehe. i think it's pretty awesome that a lot of us listen to 'other language' music. it just shows how diverse we are... and that's greatness! i am hmong by the way. if a lot of other nationalities listened to hmong music, i would think that it was the 'shinitz!' lol... i would be very flattered to know that someone else is enjoying 'my language' music.

I don't think it's weird at all, especially since I'm on a Korean music forum when I'm Filipino. Actually, I think I wouldn't like some songs as much if I understood them :X

Mmmm, not at all. I listen to songs in all these languages I can't speak. sweatingbullets.gif Like Spanish (I can understand a little), Korean, French, German, etc. Though I might not understand the words, sometimes the way they say the words with the music it's something really unique to hear.

after a loooong time listening to other languages... it feels a little bit different listening to
songs that you understand the lyrics to.

but i dont think it's weird at all.

It's not weird at all.
It just shows that we are not the typical music listeners
that only listens to one language.

I'm Filipina and I listen to ...

Korean
Japanese
Chinese
Vietnamese
English
French
Spanish

songs... If listening to other langauges
is weird then I'm weird.. tongue.gif lolx

Exactly ^^.

I don't think anything is wrong with it. Those who do, should get screwed. I'm Vietnamese, and I listen to Japanese, Chinese, and Korean. I love listening to music in other languages. smile.gif

There's nothing wrong with listening to music in another language. Translations for there for a reason. =) Plus, music transends language boundaries.

I know a few people who thinks it's weird that I listen to Korean/Japanese music but I don't care. I like what I like, and you like what you like. Who are you to have any say or question what I'm into? Get a life. sleep.gif

Maybe because i listening to other languages too, but i don't think its weird at all. its kinda cool you can enjoy music despite a language barrier.it gives you a WAY GREATER variety of stuff to listen. plus their are some styles of music that countries seem to "master" better. like your k-hip/hop doesn't sound like the mainstream rap you hear on radios. I can only speak english, (and i'm not asian) but I listen to music in: japanese, korean, icelandic- not to mention stuff in english from other countries. i like my eclectic taste- and its great a lot of us on here are like that too

I hope you were kidding, or at least, you were EXTREMELY bored when you wrote this.

It's common sense

It's kind of weird to ask this question on Soompi...just ignore the people who hurt you they are ignorant and closed minded

I'm Nigerian-American...and I listen to Korean, Taiwanese, Chinese, and Japanese music...I listen to this more than American stuff...yes people think it is weird that I do..but wtf cares I can listen to whoever I want whenever I want!!!

I'm a Filipino but I listen to Korean, japanese and chinese ( mandarin) songs. I don't find it weird at all. It's cool in someways.

People here in soompi don't find it weird at all. Coz I think we listened to korea, chinese, japanese songs in here.
