GM Daewoo’s Luxury Sedan Alpheon

Lots and lots of new and uber stylish cars being unveiled but oh well, competition is nice and now aside from just your daily-average looking cars, Korean GM Daewoo has unveiled its much awaited luxury sedan Alpheon. GM Daewoo is the South Korean counterpart of US automobile manufacturer, General Motors Co.

The Alpheon luxury sedan, though is considered a localized GM’s Buick LaCrosse, has been modified and enhanced to suit the needs of discerning, and choosy buyers, what GM Daewoo refers to as ” the most sophisticated luxury car buyers in Korea”.

GM-Daewoo-Alpheon-Luxury-Sedan

So what makes this extra special, to merit the distinction of being called a luxury sedan? Hmm, does it have a bed and an oh so soft mattress? Hehe forgive me for asking, coz shhh I must admit that is what I’ll consider a luxury.. Anyway, the Alpheon comes with ” 3.0-liter Spark-Ignition Direct Injection, or SIDI, engine that allows maximum fuel efficiency with lower emissions while producing an overwhelming 263 horsepower at its peak, the highest in its segment here.”

It also boasts of top notch interior and exterior designs and an array of features. Among these are 12-way power-adjustable driver’s seat and a tri-zone air conditioning system that enables three different temperature settings for the driver, front passenger and passengers in the back.

The Alpheon CL300 and EL300 is expected to be in the market starting Sept 7th. So how much will it cost? CL300 will fetch US$30,700 while EL300 will go for $32,630.

An ‘lighter’ and more affodable version is set to be launched in October. Visit GM Daewoo Korea for more

BoA Kwon for WKorea

Call me biased, but I like BoA. She’s fashion forward, has that elusive chameleon like quality. One day she’ll look sporty, then a girl next door, then the next day sporting mature fashion.. There’s no telling what she’ll pull off next so this photo shoot for WKorea Sept issue just about fits her.

I just love how she’s able to carry on any look!

When Origami Meets Couture

I found this very fascinating! I’ve always associated origami with home and hearth, with all things quaint, with simple beauty, of things Asian. Now how would it turn out if origami meets high fashion?

Chocolate’s What To Do MV

Chocolate is the latest girl group to debut, with members from US, Korea and China. So they are dubbed then as the ‘global girl group’.

Chocolate

Sigh! So here’s another girl group. I’m steeling myself to give them the benefit of the doubt and see how they fare against the hordes of girl groups cropping left and right.

Anyway, the group is launching their debut single ‘What to Do’ and here’s the music video. So, what do you think? Do they have what it takes to hold it on their own?

I must say I was a bit disappointed, having read all the hype surrounding them and them bagging an endorsement with an expensive clothing line- Nuzzon, they are not exactly that brilliant, more like ‘just ok’ and not a standout, they should have made a better production jobs out of this debut song. But oh well, let’s wait and see

Video: Hilarious Bellies

This is absolutely hilarious! A Japanese TV ad, that had me almost rolling on the floor laughing..I wonder though what’s the commercial for? Perhaps a theme park?

Whatever. Do enjoy!
