Throwback Thursday: Papaya – Listen to my Word
Yeah. I went pretty far back. This is the first K-pop song that I downloaded. The video’s got tetris blocks and girls singing. I wasn’t even fully aware of what K-pop was back then. I just thought the song was trippy and cool. To Eli and Rhema, y’all probably were in kindergarten when this…

9 Girls, 9 Dates, In Less Than 5 Minutes
Let’s keep this post rather short and sweet. At Four Minutes and Forty-Seven Seconds… Guys, try not to blush, and if you do so, blush in a manly manner and do some pushups afterwards to toughen back up. Ladies, take notes because it’s time for Charm School. Say hello to Girls Generation when they were…

Ever since this song came out, South Korea’s been on a tear.
What do Baby VOX, S.E.S., Dara, Shinhwa, Black Beat and other k-pop stars have in common? They’ve made theme songs for the South Korean soccer team. Yes, I only watched it at first for Baby VOX and S.E.S.. And Shinhwa. Still, can you believe that this song came out 10 years ago? Right now…

Fin.K.L – Pride : So how do you say “tsundere” in Korean?
In Japanese otaku fandom, the term “tsundere” means a girl that’s sorta mean-spirited or tough, but she’s all soft and gooey on the inside. Basically, you just gotta get through her hard outer shell and get into the creamy center. I really want some Cadbury chocolate eggs….OH. Anyway, Fin.k.l was one of the huge pop…
