KPOP KORNER

We decided to take a quick tour to learn all about the band of ever growing subunits, members, and chaos also known as NCT, after SM Entertainment announced that they will be partnering up with MGM to create the next all American NCT subunit - NCT Hollywood. In this episode we cover the basic history of NCT's concept and subunits while accidentally exposing our very obvious NCTzen status. Get ready, it's a messy one... Also not @ Laila forgetting her own son Renjun while talking about NCT Dream...

We are exploring the different ways KPOP has dealt with the pandemic; from cancelled tours and shows to the new normal KPOP has created for its fans across the world. Reminiscing on how KPOP helped us personally during lockdown exactly a year ago; we discuss lost jobs, health scares, emotional support KPOP Idols, music, and overall moments that kept us moving forward while having our lives (and everyone else's) be put on hold... and we may have gotten a little bit emosh... JUST A LITTLE BIT.
