I’ve been watching Philippine entertainment scene on YouTube and I notice it’s a youth – oriented – IDOL type , much like this K-Pop and J- Pop thing going on in South Korea and Japan, and , most likely, the whole of Asia. Do I like it ? Hmmm, I don’t know. Maybe. But , it does entertain me. A lot. lol I saw this Filipino all-female girl group whose songs sound like a Japanese Anime theme song. Then, I found out the group is actually managed by a Philippine -Japanese entertainment company. The group is MNL48. MNL means Manila, and they have a counterpart in Japan , JNK48 . Are they trying to homogenize Asian entertainment ? It’s fun to watch them, though. I gave the link to my Filipino co-worker, and I think I ‘ve turned her into an obsessive fan. Everytime we see each other at work, we do this finger thing and sing, ” Tension, sion, sion, sion, sion, tension max…. good job, job, job, job, good job, yeah…” And my co-workers are like, what’s going on with you two ? Hahaha.
Anyways,
Here it is………. Click to be amused and entertained.
The song is stuck in my brain ! !!
Am a Molecular Microbiology student, love to read books, and I play the violin.

Their music is very catchy. Love their outfits! So stylish!
I used to be obsessed with J-pop but now I love K-pop more.
I wonder why the music industry has so many idols in one group?
I would think with that many in a group they don’t get to see any of the money that they make ☹️

There are 16 of them , actually. And the group is further divided into smaller groups. … like , 3 of them belong to another group and call themselves Sugar something. ( Forgot the name. )
Oh, Bes, check out P-Pop on Youtube… SB19.
