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”

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”
Studio Ghibli: ‘Spirited Away: Live On Stage’
Hi! It’s Annie! This event happened last week, but if you weren’t aware, the three hour stage production of ‘Spirited Away: Live On Stage’ was shown at select theaters as part of ‘Fathom Events’.

Star Wars: Sabine Wren Has Always Been Great
Hi! It’s Annie! Sabine Wren has been my all time favorite Star Wars character since I was a young teenager. I personally get into media more because of characters than anything else, including plot. If a show, movie, book, or anything else doesn’t have a specific character that I feel attached to, it is muchContinue reading “Star Wars: Sabine Wren Has Always Been Great”
ATEEZ: Why These Fandoms are Important
Hi! It’s Annie! I find that when I’m writing about my favorite K-Pop groups, particularly ATEEZ, I often say that I don’t have the words to describe what they mean to me. And while that is most likely true and I most likely will never be able to formulate just how much these men haveContinue reading “ATEEZ: Why These Fandoms are Important”
Books: When the Movie is Better than the Book
Hi! It’s Annie! It’s probably more than well known on this blog that I am very into romcoms. Everything from cutesy romcom movies, to books, to K-Dramas, are usually right up my alley. So, no, I have no idea how it’s taken me this long to watch or read ‘To All the Boys’. Maybe becauseContinue reading “Books: When the Movie is Better than the Book”
Live Entertainment: Things To Do That ARE NOT ‘Medieval Times’
Hi! It’s Annie! I know we don’t usually do posts like this, but this is incredibly important. DO NOT go to ‘Medieval Times’ right now if you life in California. The workers at the Buena Park, California castle of ‘Medieval Times’ are currently on strike due to exceptionally low pay, no appropriate payment for dangerousContinue reading “Live Entertainment: Things To Do That ARE NOT ‘Medieval Times’”
ATEEZ: ‘Limitless’
Hi! It’s Annie! I’m just going to say from the beginning that this is going to be my new summer song. ATEEZ is just so incredibly good at creating sweeping epic songs that inspire hope. I know that Mingi said that this was probably his favorite of their Japanese releases. For me, it would beContinue reading “ATEEZ: ‘Limitless’”
ATEEZ: Happy Birthday Yunho!
Hi! It’s Annie! It is officially Yunho week! And also the week that marks the release of “Limitless”. Overall, just a great week for Atiny. But, more importantly, it gives me the absolute best excuse to gush about my ult bias, the man who stole my heart from the get-go, Jeong Yunho. The bear retrieverContinue reading “ATEEZ: Happy Birthday Yunho!”
Video Games: Mario Bros. Lore
Hi! It’s Annie! I think everyone is more than aware by now that there’s a brand new ‘Mario Bros.’ movie coming out and a lot of people have a lot of opinions on the casting. I know I do! But even though this may or may not be one of the best ‘Super Mario Bros.’Continue reading “Video Games: Mario Bros. Lore”
