For someone with a collection with a disc worth a 10, an album with one single playlist-eligible song is a bit more than a disappointment.

#1 Sarang Anhê

Such a rare occurence: a great Korean ballad from an non- Lee Soo Young artist.

#2 Ez Do Dance

Unfortunately enough, this has nothing to do with Lee Jung Hyun's Kôntylzima (Ez Life Trance Mix). I've had to dance so much this kind of music that I'm inclined to give it a chance. I might regret this.

#3 Sylphyn Hêngun

Uh bluh. The Koreans must have something loose in their heads to be able to listen to these same utterly boring ballads over and over again. I should almost make a CD with the most generic of them.

#4 Woo Ah

Ugh horror.

#5 Zhukze

The first Latin-flavoured track from the Latin dance queen.

#6 Mos 7

La la la, bla bla bla. Picks up a bit as it goes on but not enough.

#7 Pôriki Wihêsô 7

Not hopeless but not hopeful either.

#8 Kazima

Missed it.

#9 Zhuôkyi Sonthop

Do I wanna funky music? I might.

#10 Miwojo 6

Very simplistic ballad that gets points for differing from the general formula but not for much else.

#11 Nôl Saranghê 7

Almost decent.

#12 Kariwozin Kil

The latin dance queen lets us down by belting out a boring ballad one after another.

#13 Ironic 8

... but tries to save the day with the last track? Too little, too late.
