Plans for 2022
Happy New Year, everyone!!! (A few days late, but what else is new ^^”’) This past weekend was officially the start of my winter break, so I spent New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day curled up under my blankets watching K-pop events like the MBC Gayo and the big SM concert.

New Year, New Changes!
Happy New Year, all! I’m a little late because I wanted to finish my Top 50 of 2020 first (the perfectionist in me needs to keep continuity), but I just wanted to wish everyone a happy and healthy 2021. 2020 was pretty much the worst, so I’m glad we can all turn the page andContinue reading “New Year, New Changes!”
An Irene Fan’s Thoughts on Recent Events
The K-pop world saw its latest media storm several days ago when an editor/stylist posted on Instagram about a recent bad experience with a celebrity.

Katherine Does K-Pop: Version 2.0
