K-Pop and K-Dramas: Infantilizing Idols

Hey! Hallie here! This specifically is an interesting problem because it’s something both fans of K-Pop and those who dislike K-Pop suffer from. It’s prevalent in multiple groups as well, though, being ARMY, I tend to notice it most in the BTS fandom. This problem doesn’t stem from using the term “baby” to describe aContinue reading “K-Pop and K-Dramas: Infantilizing Idols”

K-Pop and K-Dramas: Don’t Mess With BTS

Hi! It’s Annie! I’m sorry, but I can’t leave the stuff about the Grammys just yet. Especially not after the new developments from today. Because if you mess with BTS you’re going to get on the nerves of the very protective ARMY, and now we’ve actually seen some of the effects of that. Yes, BTSContinue reading “K-Pop and K-Dramas: Don’t Mess With BTS”

K-Pop and K-Dramas: BTS Didn’t Win

Hey! Hallie here! So today was…disappointing. Actually that’s an understatement. The way BTS was treated this year, just like every year, was outright unfair. The outpouring of support from ARMY, and from BTS right back, made the bad news of today a little more bearable, though. Let’s go through the events of today and recapContinue reading “K-Pop and K-Dramas: BTS Didn’t Win”

K-Pop and K-Dramas: Line Friends Store Hollywood

Hi! It’s Annie! I feel like this blog is slowly being taken over completely by BTS and I really hope you’re not mad at it. This is a very BTS weekend considering the Grammys, though that situation makes me nervous. So I guess here’s a more lighthearted BTS post before whatever happens tomorrow. Most ofContinue reading “K-Pop and K-Dramas: Line Friends Store Hollywood”

K-Pop and K-Dramas: BTS and the Grammys

Hey! Hallie here! The Grammys are on Sunday and many ARMYs, like myself, are a little on edge right now. The truth is, the Grammys aren’t very trustworthy. They’ve already proven this multiple times in the past. They’ve even begun to re-prove this on the days approaching the award show. And yes, I’d say most,Continue reading “K-Pop and K-Dramas: BTS and the Grammys”

K-Pop and K-Dramas: Run BTS 131 and 132

Hi! It’s Annie! I’ve already done a giant post on my favorite episodes of Run BTS but, of course, that was before these last two episodes came out. These were some of the funniest episodes I have ever seen. While I did worry about the boys potentially getting sick from all the water, it seemedContinue reading “K-Pop and K-Dramas: Run BTS 131 and 132”

K-Pop and K-Dramas: Happy Birthday Yoongi!

Hey! Hallie here! Happy Birthday to one of the best rappers, writers, and producers in the entire music industry! Yoongi has accomplished so much throughout his career and still he’s shown amazing humility, wisdom, and compassion. He’s a great artist and an even better person. We’ve talked about his different songs and albums on thisContinue reading “K-Pop and K-Dramas: Happy Birthday Yoongi!”

K-Pop and K-Dramas: Common Misconceptions About BTS Part 2

Hey! Hallie here! The last time I wrote one of these I promised it would be a series, so here’s the second one! The first post in this series was a bit more serious. I talked mostly about the more negative assumptions made about the boys, or negative thoughts people assume most ARMY’s have beforeContinue reading “K-Pop and K-Dramas: Common Misconceptions About BTS Part 2”

K-Pop and K-Dramas: A Breakdown of the BT21 Characters

Hey! Hallie here! If you’re a BTS fan you’ve probably seen the cute characters from the photo above. If you don’t know who they are, however, these characters are the BT21 line BTS and LINE FRIENDS collaborated on. Each character was created by a member of BTS with the help of some very talented LINEContinue reading “K-Pop and K-Dramas: A Breakdown of the BT21 Characters”

K-Pop and K-Dramas: Yoongi’s Back!

Hi! It’s Annie! Yesterday was the BigHit News Year’s Eve Live event on Weverse which, of course, involved BTS. Earlier this week we also learned through Yoongi’s Vlive (Hilariously titled ‘I can’t believe they made me a snowman’) that he would be attending this event and that he wouldn’t be taking part in the performances.Continue reading “K-Pop and K-Dramas: Yoongi’s Back!”
