CALLING ALL MONBEBE’S!!! (and/or enjoyers of hot and grown men)

……

Today the girls are talking MONSTAAAA X!!! They took way too long to get into this group, as seems to be their problem, and let me tell you Maddie is absolutely freaking obsessed with I.M’s nose, I.M’s hair, that one line where he’s like “LOOK IN MY EYES. STRAIGHT INTO MY EYES.” yah. 

….

If you’re new to THE KDROP Beginner’s Guides, they’re a perfect way to get into a new kpop group (or just hear us gush about a group you already know and love). We hope you love the Elle, Maddie, Nas and Meg’s take on MONSTA X and we hope you learn something about this amazing (and under appreciated) 3rd gen boy group along the way!
