#MoodMusicMonday today will be a weird mood, it is "mood"
You can interpret it with whatever you like including just the colloquialism "mood" to mean that's how you feel too, or maybe it's a song made while the artist was in a mood. Whatever.
Remember to tag your post with #MoodMusicMonday and mention the mood is "mood" so others can participate!

It's #SundayAlbumQuilt time.
I'm obsessed with Vision Wings from WayV and dinnermode from Sumin this week. Yay for new TXT and Enhypen. Dori's Melotherapy is fun, and I finally understand the Hi-Fi Un!corn hype.
What did you listen to this week?

CPop and cDramas are a thing, but different from their Korean counterparts even if some of the cDrama Idol actors got their start with the KPop system.
Cdramas have an astonishing amount of original songs, written specifically for the dramas and performed by real vocalists, including some of China’s most popular singers. Seeing and hearing favourite OSTs (original soundtrack songs) performed by leading vocalists at packed arena concerts is definitely a thing, and these often get amplified on YouTube and other platforms.
Many, but not all, are ballads. Rap and alternative music are definitely included.
One OST that’s been running through my head recently is *Bow one’s head* 《俯首》sung by Wuyin Jw from the cDrama *The Shadow Sovereign* — a drama that seems to be among the most talked about shorter court romance period cdrama of this year, and edges into what will be long format length under the new short drama regulatory framework coming into effect this fall.
*The Shadow Sovereign* cDrama stars the lovely Snow Kong Xue Er and Li Hong Yi, known respectively for *Pursuit of Jade* and *Blood of Youth*, as the romantic leads. Snow Kong started in the KPop development pipe and seems to be struggling to get main roles despite several supporting roles where she’s given compelling and nuanced performances of diverse characters. Li Hongyi is well known from the hit wuxia *Blood of Youth* but hasn’t had many roles since. Both show they deserve more main lead roles in long format S-tier dramas.
Originally produced for and released by Bilibili in China, the drama has been licensed and picked up by several platforms. Sen TV English Channel on YouTube and FB have it (free with ads but poor quality subtitles). Streamers Rakuten Viki and iQIYI have just started releasing episodes this week (better subtitles).
Here’s an official music video of ‘Bow one’s head’ for the drama released at the end of July (posted to the artist’s channel).

A20 MAY -- Love Got Me Ooh -- M Countdown 260806
https://youtu.be/n1HHtthUNKE?si=qK5HF-Nk2ZTJ7saAI was struck by how deep the vocals of of Chenyu (white croptop, black skirt) were in comparison with those one normally hears from girl groups on Kpop shows.
A20 MAY's members are all Chinese or Chinese American, but they are under Lee Soo-Man's A20 Entertainment .
I wonder if we are going to see more of them on the Kpop scene. I don't know how successful their previous releases have been in China, nor do I know how much of problem for their prospects in South Korea prejudice against an all Chinese might be. Perhaps their nationality won't matter, as XG's Japanese nationality does not seem to have blocked them.
As for the song itself, I quite liked it without being wild about it.
I actually found myself more taken with....

Happy very late in the day #KPopMonday ... it's #SecondThoughts. For my first pick, I was checking out my music stats from the last few weeks, and I noticed I'm back to listening to Minghao and Junhui's old solo tracks a lot lately.
So let's go with this gorgeousness. Because it definitely deserves rediscovering multiple times!

Since breaking with her dodgy old management company, Zhao Lu Si (Rosy) has been doing a lot more music, and her voice seems to have grown with each release. I really like her latest track (Touch Me in the Dark) which has a great slinky jazzy feel. Her voice really works with this genre and her English has improved a lot.

So the playlists dished this one up and I am shooketh all over again, probably because I've overdosed on him in hyperpop mode the last week and just remembered the pretty vocal version of our Minghao. :blobhaj_heart:

One day until ***The Legend of Rosy Clouds*** premieres.
Still no news on alternate streamers. Sigh. With iQIYI announcing its intention to use AI, many cdrama fans are choosing to avoid subscribing to the platform. Perhaps this will be another day-of-release surprise from Viki, like Zhan Zhao Adventures…
The OST looks to be promising. There are reports that there’s a Liu Yuning ballad titled ‘Why?’
It’s in his lower register, unlike his more recent songs, which suggests it was recorded a couple of years ago in line with the 2023 production. If you like Liu Yuning singing with his chest voice, you’ll want to look for this one when it makes it to music streamers.

Let's resurrect #MoodMusicMonday. In honour of me killing time until surgery, today's mood will be "waiting".
Post the song or songs that fit the mood of "waiting" interpreted however you want, it can literally be a song about waiting, it can be meta where a song took a long time to come out or a artist/band waited a long time to release it, etc whatever you want!
If you can, link the song so others can listen!
Remember to include the mood "waiting" and hashtag #MoodMusicMonday so others can participate!
