Sundays are for Catching up in the Kpop World.

Music Videos Watched: 

  • Riize - Talk Saxy
    • I can't lie, I saw when this came out but the title was a bit cringy sounding so I was worried. After watching them on MMTG (a Korean YouTube show) I decided to check it out. I think after some long deliberation though that Sohee is my bias. (o゜▽゜)o☆ He is cute and brings good energy, his line delivery in this song gave me high school musical vibes since he has such a fresh energy~~ 
  • WayV - On My Youth
    • So Red Velvet and Aespa are also releasing teasers for content right now and they are giving DRAMA and acting!! SM must be having a movement (well, not including Riize) because WayV brought the exact same energy. Xiaojun, my bias, in particular was bringing the drama with his ragged breathing intro to the mv. He looks really good with his blond highlights for this comeback. 

    • The storyline of the mv has all the members going through traumatic and dark (literally and figuratively) scenarios. I liked the singing in the middle of a crowd fighting scenes, I think that was a good choice.  
  • Epik High ft. Hoshi - Screen Time
Other Content:

  • its live
    • Epik High ft. Hoshi
      • In short - I was worried that DJ Tukutz would just sit on the table behind them, but it was a DJ table.
    • Seventeen - God of Music
      • In short - Seventeen are music masters, and when they get hype so do I. 










  • Pixid
    • Taemin: find the sunbae among the rookies
      • All the videos of the Pixid series are cute, funny, and touching and this was no different. It was funny that all the guests are singers this time around but since they were rookies away from their group it still had a cozy akwardness. I'll be honest, sometimes I try to keep up with Korean in the chat, but I am still learning. Hats off to all the non-native Korean speaking kpop stars out there. These episodes are always special because the stars like Taemin get to get praise that is genuine before showing his face. The dance challange at the end was a nice touch too. I look forward to getting to know the rookie groups!
  • Riize - Siren performance
    • I am way too late to watching this! The high energy is exactly the kind of Kpop that clicks with me when getting to know a new group. In a very vague way it reminds me of when Ateez was KQ Boys. 
  • MMTG - Riize Episode
    • I have been a fan of MMTG for a while now the host (+and writting team) do their research and seem to genuinly enjoy kpop and each of their guests work. Whoevers idea it was to make the maknae Anton a cohost struck gold to be honest. I think it opened him and the other members up to talking more then otherwise. 
    • Favorite Moments: 
      • The Dad Joke competition between Sungchan and Eunseok (especially since they didn't talk much otherwise)
      • The reveal that Wonbin is a 'Dopamine Addict' like me and that he is a meme maker/appreciater.
