My Top Kpop Songs of October 2021
October was one of those months that was filled with incredible albums…yes albums not just title tracks. But I feel like I haven’t been able to fully enjoy each of them. Like I mentioned in my September post, I’ve been slowing down with comebacks to focus on individual comebacks more. Yes, there are certain albums…

CNBLUE Are Modern Day Cowboys With A Rockstar Flare in Their 9th Mini Album ‘Wanted’
After almost a year since their last Korean comeback, CNBLUE returned to the music scene with a new concept and new music.

WOODZ ‘Only Lovers Left’ Narrates A Bittersweet Love Story In The Best Way
Love, heartbreak, passion, confusion, happiness, sadness, it’s all in one album. WOODZ (Seungyoun) Only Lovers Left is a no-skip, keep it on repeat, replay all day, type of album.

VERIVERY Shatter Barriers in Their Powerhouse Mini Album ‘FACE US’
VERIVERY is a group that continually surprised me with each comeback this year. They definitely solidified themselves as a strong rookie group with a new image in 2020.

B1A4’s ‘Origine’ Album Brings Magic Back Into Our Lives
I will start this post by saying I am currently writing this while drinking a cup of warm tea. This is a good indication on the type of album Origine is. If I could describe it in two words it would be: magical and comforting. I’ve listened to quite a lot of albums this year…

From Beautiful Goodbyes to Finding Their Paradise, Pentagon’s EP ‘WE:TH’ Is A Journey of Healing
There are so many things I want to say about Pentagon. The underestimated underdogs of Kpop. Or the nine talented individuals who truly put their heart and soul into their music. The list goes on and on. This year in particular (ever since their song “Dr. Bebe”, which was released in February) I have kept…

Worth The Hype? SuperM’s Album ‘Super One’ Will Definitely Surprise Skeptics
I will start this post by saying SuperM’s album Super One went beyond my expectations. Without realizing I tend to be more skeptical of albums from popular groups. I’m always afraid the hype of the album (and group) never meets my expectations and usually I’ll be let down after listening to an album. However with…
