Goddess... Her Fate

This is most probably one of the best Korean albums I have. Or is it? Read this review and find out.

#1 I Say 9½

Oh, this has so grown onto me. Not my style at all, of course, so something magical there must be in it.

#2 Magic 9½

At first I didn't understand why this was the first FT but I guess it was quite popular. Anyway, every time an album is an artist's last one, there's always extra room for criticism :E The video is cool, too bad it doesn't come in its full version on the CD.

#3 Anija 8½

It's clear that I haven't listened to this CD as much as I should have. This track has been quite forgotten as well, though it's quite good.

#4 Kwihan Sarang 7

Oh my. The second FT and a big miss, if you ask me. Molla and Tonight would've been perfect choices! This is like a nursery version of some LJH pieces.

#5 Nôl Wihan Ipjôl 8½

Not a bad ballad at all.

#6 Tonight 10

My original favourite, still number two. The "night-light" part is especially good, even if the chorus is a bit ordinary.

#7 Molla 10

And right after it, another big hitter, even the biggest one. This is just so good. Very powerful, with an Asian instrumental.

#8 Kjôngko 6½

Just about the only good thing is this is in the beginning the guy saying "Lady Chae, can I have your permission to continue? Thank you.". Feels like it lasted forever, though only something over three minutes.

#9 Prism 7

Neither is this one of my favourites. End already...

#10 Wê?! 6

Oh, what a wonderful opportunity once again to turn the title against the track... I'm beginning to realise there are reasons why I haven't listened to this album so much... But how could I be so misguided as to predict a 10 for this CD?

#11 But Beautiful 8

Begins very similarly to Lara Fabian's Croire (LUX88) but continues differently. But who's the man singing? And why isn't he credited or even mentioned anywhere? Rather good basic but beautiful (:P) ballad.

#12 Papo Kathyn Sarang 8½

Does this mean 'Foolish-seeming Love'? Could be. Right about time to get upbeat once more. Ordinary Koyote-type material but it's not the same without Shinji's screamy vocals.

#13 Nôman! 8½

Another of the previous kind, good. But not good enough.

#14 Magic (Remix) 9½

It's a tough call whether the remix takes a half off the score or not. I think it doesn't.
