International Dramas: Romance Tropes that Don’t/Do Deserve the Hate

Hi! It’s Annie! I am going to take the beginning of this to say an early Happy Birthday to Geonhak (or Leedo) of ONEUS. I’ve done an entire post on him if you want to check it out and if you haven’t listened to ONEUS, go do that! They are one of the best andContinue reading “International Dramas: Romance Tropes that Don’t/Do Deserve the Hate”

International Dramas: ‘Hidden Love’

Hi! It’s Annie! Because of the current strike we’ll be talking a lot about K-Pop and dramas from abroad as well as other forms of media instead of current US and streaming media for the foreseeable future! I finally finished watching this drama in its entirety after I had to wait for episodes to comeContinue reading “International Dramas: ‘Hidden Love’”

ATEEZ: Happy Birthday San!

Hi! It’s Annie! As usual this is a little late, but I really do want to say the absolute warmest happy birthday to San right now! San is the most biased member of ATEEZ and that is certainly because he is one of the most eye catching members of any group ever. It’s really difficultContinue reading “ATEEZ: Happy Birthday San!”

ATEEZ: The ATINY Wars

Hi! It’s Annie! I think we can all agree that this most recent comeback is one of the best and most successful from ATEEZ. Not only was all of the music on the album breathtakingly amazing; but ATEEZ hasn’t stopped the hype since the promotion of this comeback began. It is absolutely impossible to becomeContinue reading “ATEEZ: The ATINY Wars”

Superheroes: Why Spider Gwen’s Story Arc is Perfect

Hi! It’s Annie! I’ve recently watched ‘Across the Spider-Verse’ twice. I think it’s safe to say that this is one of my favorite superhero movies right now…if not my absolute favorite. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen such amazing storytelling for so many characters all packed into one movie. But the character thatContinue reading “Superheroes: Why Spider Gwen’s Story Arc is Perfect”

ATEEZ:’THE WORLD EP.2: OUTLAW’

Hi! It’s Annie! The new album has officially dropped and I can say right off the bat that this album is like all of their other albums in one very important way. It also contains some of the best music I’ve ever heard in my life. There’s something about the way that they create musicContinue reading “ATEEZ:’THE WORLD EP.2: OUTLAW’”

K-Pop: Twice at So-Fi

Hi! It’s Annie! It’s been a while but we’re back and now with unexpected experiences! I have been following Twice very very loosely for a little while because of a few songs that I’ve liked but, because I was completely unaware of how versatile they were, I never got completely into them. I’ve been onContinue reading “K-Pop: Twice at So-Fi”

Books: ‘K-Pop Confidential’ and the Reality of Idol Life

Hi! It’s Annie! Before I go further into this post I want to say that not only will this post contain MAJOR SPOILERS for ‘K-Pop Confidential’, but also its sequel ‘K-Pop Revolution’. I also want to place a TRIGGER WARNING here because of the trauma depicted in these books specifically when talking about eating disorders.Continue reading “Books: ‘K-Pop Confidential’ and the Reality of Idol Life”

BTS: Why ARMY is Changing

Hi! It’s Annie! There’s been a lot of tension and confusion in the fandom right now. And by a lot I mean, definitely more than normal. And with this new amount of negativity in the fandom, a lot of ARMY are reasonably scared. I mean, we used to have the reputation of being the mostContinue reading “BTS: Why ARMY is Changing”

K-Pop: ONEUS ‘PYGMALION’ Comeback

Hi! It’s Annie! I would just like to thank ONEUS for one of the best birthday presents I could have ever gotten this year. A comeback the day before my birthday? First a concert near Valentine’s Day and then a comeback almost on my birthday? Seriously, I feel so spoiled by them. And this comebackContinue reading “K-Pop: ONEUS ‘PYGMALION’ Comeback”
