F-ve Dolls Far From Toothless

By now everybody has already made all the salient points there are to make about F-ive Dolls' "Soulmate #1." But, being aware that not everybody who reads this blog reads everybody, I've determined to, as a public service, simply restate the points that everybody has already made.

(1) While the riff may not exactly be the riff from "Funky Town," it's awfully similar. (Like maybe one note different.)

(2) F-ve Dolls were until recently 5Dolls, but now there are six members and the group name was changed to "F-ve Dolls," the logic of which I'm sure I don't have to explain to you (which is a good thing, seeing as I have no idea). The lineup has changed over the years.

Watch on YouTube

I recommend that you listen to this track before reading the rest of this post.
(3) The catchy chorus to this catchy song goes:

꽉 안아줘요 꽉 안아줘요
꽉 안아줘요 갈비뼈가 으스러지도록
키스해줘요 키스해줘요
뽀뽀해줘 앞이빨이 쏙빠지도록

which the good people at pop!gasa translate as:

Hug me tight, hug me tight
Hug me tight till my rib bones break
Kiss me, kiss me
Kiss me so my teeth fall out

which seems rather extreme. When the Hangul text is merely transliterated into romanized text, one gets something like,

Kkwag anajwoyo kkwag anajwoyo kkwag anajwoyo
Galbi ppyeoga euseureoji dorog
Kiseuhae jwoyo kiseuhae jwoyo ppoppo haejwo
Api ppari ssogppaji dorog

I'll add as an aside that the phrase "Kkwag anajwoyo kkwag anajwoyo kkwag," as it reaches my English-language ears, sounds a lot like the English words "Fuck, I'm enjoy a fuck, I'm enjoy a fuck."* I'd say this was probably just me, except it's not just me, even if it turns out to be a coincidence.

(4) I was going to call this post "F-ve Dolls Seek Amy" but I chickened out.

( More name changes contemplated )
