This might be of relevance to Life, since we both forgot to greet our lovely bebe on her birthday! T___T

Hongki bebe, of all the boys tle="" target="">why are you the only one who attended
/gives him a suspicious look/ where the heck was Yongie (and Minhyukkie who was her bestie in Heirs, and the other CNBlue boys)? (oh right they're all busy with their new single :(  couldn't you have stopped a while? well obviously you guys "can't stop" hehe)

ThunderMouse, I made tle="" target="_blank">a blog post listing the songs on my playlist /pokes it
IDK whether you prefer pop, rock, or dance, though (I can't help you with the last-mentioned, but you might want to try U-KISS, EXO, or Girls Generation). If you like pop / rock, then FT Island and CNBlue might be a good listen.

The Sixth Wave of this Quiz is now officially closed.

The answers are:

1. I shall make this easy for all of you K-pop lovers out there. Define the word "oppa." When may it be used? Give me the four main instances. :D (5 pts)
- Oppa means "older brother" and is used only by females. 
It is used: 
(a) to address older brothers and cousins, 
(b) to address older male friends and basically older males who are like older brothers,
(c) to address boyfriends, and 
(d) by fans to address their idol singers, and in some cases, actors.

2. Manga and anime time! Since the Lunar New Year has just been celebrated and all... what manga (which was also made into an anime... which I am not happy about) featured characters that represented the animals from the Chinese Zodiac? Bonus point if you tell me how the ti
tle of the manga relates to the story. (2 pts)
- The manga is called Fruits Basket (and yes I am not happy that the anime wasn't good, and that it will never be continued, because I love this manga so darned much). The ti
tle seems to be so unrelated to the story, but it somehow is. It's the name of a children's game, used as a metaphor for the way the main character felt left out of everything, because when other kids played the game when she was little, they used to exclude her. 

Bonus question: Since it's Valentine's Day this week and all... what's the "crazy little thing" mentioned in the Thai "sleeper hit" movie starring Mario Maurer and Pimchanok Luevisadpaibul? (1 pt)
-Love, of course. The movie is called First Love on Wikipedia, but the Thai ti
tle translates to "A Little Thing Called... Love", and elsewhere on the internet it can be found as A Crazy Little Thing Called Love. BTW, it's called a "sleeper hit" because it hadn't been expected to get very popular or successful, but it became popular even internationally. (I've seen it on Philippine television maybe twice, thrice in the past year.)
