Japanese

but I have a bit of Korean, and very very little Chinese...

I really enjoy the Korean language in song...but I havent found a ton of music from there that I like yet...just stuff here and there.

English and Japanese 50/50. I used to be into a lot of Kpop and Cpop back during my Asian music peak (lol. And that was probably 4-5 years ago), and haven't touched the stuff until about a week ago. I've been listening to a lot of MBLAQ and C.N.Blue in the last week.

I just find Japanese music to sound more fluid (the words themselves). When I stopped listening to Cpop and tried listening to it again once I though 'how the hell could I listen to this before?' It's too choppy for me. It just doesn't flow nicely (in my personal opinion as a foreigner).

Japanese. I also have some songs in Korean and Chinese, but not nearly as many. I'm open to any of them though, really.

Japanese by far.

I just listen to some certain korean / chinese mandarin singers. Even though I love the sound of the chinese language!
I used to try out new Kpop singer or bands once in a while but I stopped by now. I am a bit confused with their release system.

mostly Japanese and little Korean. l can't get to to Korean music much like some said way too overrated and Kpop stans are not helping. as for Asian other languages, I don't listen but I'm open-minded to them.

Japanese is top for me, but is very closely followed by Korean.... I also listen to a bit of Chinese, but I honestly can't tell the difference between Cantonese and Mandarin when hearing it. All I know is Mandarin is much more common around here.

Some of those Asian languages listed on the poll though I haven't even heard of.
