I’ve said it before. Twice. A new group from one of the big three is a huge deal. Before WINNER, it had been 8 years since the last boy group to come out of YG, so everyone was expecting something big. And as a huge fan of both BIGBANG and 2NE1, so was I. And then YG announced their evil reality show. Continue reading

The 10 Kpop Boy Groups That I Almost Know (Right Now)
Since I missed last week’s list of the week, it’s been two weeks since the last of these. At that time I listed all the girl groups that I listen to where I can only identify one or a few of the members, or where I’m just generally very uncertain about which one’s which. This is the adjoining post, and it’s, as you would expect, all about boy groups! Continue reading
Review of BTS’s Album “Dark & Wild”
I was so insanely fired up for this comeback. And while I wouldn’t say I’m disappointed, I was expecting a more hard-hitting single. So now I’m giving the album a try, to try to find that super insanely good track that I want from BTS. This is the first time I’m listening through this album, so if you haven’t yet listened to it either, let’s do it together! Continue reading
Opinionated Profile of B2ST
Firstly, I’m sorry about not posting anything on Friday. I had a party to go to (which never happens, by the way) and I totally forgot to prewrite something. But now I’m back! B2ST is a group that has all the potential in the world to be one of my favorite groups. Continue reading
A Quickie Review of Taemin’s Solo Debut
Today was the first day of my last year of high school. And I’m tired, you guys. We didn’t have any actual lessons, but just being there immediatly made me feel emotionally drained. I’m not done with summer! So, frankly, I would like to skip today’s review altogether and just mourn my summer vacation. But I can’t. Because Taemin released a solo album! And being the huge shawol that I am, I have to give you my thoughts on it all. Continue reading
Opinionated Profile of LC9
I was madly in love with LC9 after their debut, and more or less immediately learned their names. Sadly, they’ve been more or less inactive since then, and their latest song didn’t do much for me at all. I’m also sad to know that E-Den is no longer a part of the group. He was one of my favorite members, and I’m sad to see him go. What’s most important is that he’s happy though, of course. He’s always reminded me of Kris, so I guess this was all inevitable. Since he is not a current member he won’t be included in this post, even though if I would love to be able to include him. Continue reading
The 9 Kpop Girl Groups That I Almost Know (Right Now)
I’m back! Did you miss me? Silly question, of course you did. As you might have noticed, I didn’t pre-write anything for when I was away, so it’s been a full ten days since I last posted something. Well, I’m back now so let’s get into this! Continue reading
The Four Big Ones of Red Velvet’s “Happiness”
As I said when I talked about GOT7 the first time: a new group from one of the big three is a big deal. And all of the kpop fandom is watching. SM houses two of my favorite girl groups, and two of my favorite boy groups, so it’s safe to say that I was anxiously awaiting this debut. But what did I think of it? Well… Continue reading
Opinionated Profile of Boyfriend
This is a new addition to my groups and I’m still not sure if I’m really alright with liking them. Absurd aegyo is not my thing, whether it’s guys or girls makes next to no difference. So I’m really hoping that Boyfriend will truly stay away from that from now on, so that I can actually like them. Continue reading
Trying to Untangle My Tangled BTS Bias List
I didn’t know if you guys’d want a post about this, but since it was requested, I will write it! Continue reading
