Today, we will finally be covering one of K-Pop’s most popular girl groups, Blackpink. We waited to talk about Blackpink because we wanted to know where they were going to land once contract negotiations ended with YG Entertainment. So now that we know what's going on with 3 out of the 4 members, we thought it'd be a great time to talk about them.

If you're aware of the K-Hip Hop and K-R&B scene, then you know DPR Live, currently performing under his government name, Hong Dabin. And if you follow the DPR members, you know the week of January 21 was CRAZY.

So, today we will be giving an update on the Dream Perfect Regime collective. If you're new, we released an episode on DPR back in September of 2022 where we gave an intro on who they are and what they do. And A LOT has happened since then – so much so that we felt that an update was absolutely necessary.

When we saw the promotions for one of Netflix's new K-Dramas, Doona!, we just knew we had to call our friend Jess from Daebak K-Rambles Podcast to discuss it, especially as a follow up to our joint episode on Dream High!
