Jang Geun-seok shows off his Toucholic rapping

Remember Jang Geun-seok‘s “music drama” “Yepptic & Haptic Love,” for which he sings (and raps) the theme song “Toucholic”? What is essentially a glorified music-video-slash-ad has been released — and, well, it’s pretty hilarious (unintentionally, sure, but still hilarious).

The story features a touch-phobic young man who comes into contact with a young woman and is, like, changed 4evah.

In my opinion, the song on its own (I heard it before seeing the video) kind of bites the big one. In conjunction with the video, however, it takes on a cheesetastic, campy appeal.

Wow, that is all kinds of awful.

I am curious as to why most Korean songs have English phrases or sentences as refrains. I am listening to the godawful Boys Before Flowers OST (I know, I need something to last me through to Monday), and all the songs have English phrases. Kind of jarring and strange.

After she touched his hand and ran out of the door, I expected to see him pull out a bottle of Purell, waterless hand cleanser. LOL!

question: why would anyone want to watch the online "drama" if this MV pretty much sums it up?

Hahahahahahahahahahaha

Um, the cellphone looks awesome. It's sleek and cute, just like ipod nano. I actually want one. So I guess this means their marketing technique is working?

Anjali, I use the OST to get me through the rest of the week as well! Call me crazy but I'm beginning to love it; including the song by the monotone singer.

haha, this is freakin' hilarious. when i first saw this music video yesterday, i laughed out loud cause the music was so ridiculously bad. the music video helped a lot cause it made the song a little cute-sounding, but who burst out laughing once JGS started rapping?! i know i did. no offense to him, but maybe he should stick to acting. and what's with the ponytail?
the mp3 player looks pretty cool though.

@ 11. It ~is~ the guy from Baby and I... and Beethoven Virus... and other things XD

I dunno, no one seems to like it but in a guilty sort of way, it was cute to me. The campy music video was fun and the girl looked like a little baby when they were running XD

Thanks javabeans. This was fun!

I liked this guy since Hong Gil Dong but whats up with his picture? It looks like someone fiddled around on Photoshop and got carried away with his sideburns.
