MC Hotdog - 韩流来袭 (Korean Wave Invasion)


MC Hotdog


韩流来袭, or the Korean Wave Invasion is the first major single from Taiwanese rapper MC Hotdog. In this song, MC Hotdog ridicules the music from the Taiwanese music industry because of how it glamorizes Korean pop idols and love songs. There's a lot of profanity and vulgar language used in this song especially in the chorus where he specifically calls out Korean pop bands Clon and H.O.T. and female singers Yuki, Ah Mei, and Coco Lee. The instrumental of this song uses a very popularized "chinky theme". I don't know exactly what the name of it is, but I'm sure you all heard it before. The Korean Wave Invasion can be found in MC Hotdog's debut EP album Dog released in 2001.
