Was EXID paying their respects, stealing ideas, or... something in between? Is the chorus in SF9's song Easy Love the best part of the song, or the worst? Does Lee Hae Ri need to fire her audio engineers? What even is a Shamisen? All of this and plenty more in Episode 14!

 

PLEASE LEAVE US A REVIEW ON ITUNES!

Sam Kim does something rare: he tells a story with his intrumentation. We'll reveal what makes Sam such a great musician, as well as tell you about one of our favorite songs outside of Kpop by Robert Glasper. Trust us, it's awesome.

If you want to see Sam's INCREDIBLE live performances:

Did BTS earn "perfect?" Our hardest decision since deciding to rate TWICE's album as weak. Oh, and we rated SF9, too! Find out if either of them are even good in episode 10 of The Kpop Show!

 

Oh, and: Andrew has a brilliant idea for the next BTS music video, Rhodri can't ever get the podcast description right, and we say BTS more times in a row than any podcasters ever have before. Also, Andrew explains why SF9 can't swim in the deep end, Rhodri was forced to make the most difficult decision of his podcasting career, and we both still make way too many jokes during the honorable mentions section.

 

We love you. Love us too? Leave a review!

Can Suzy even sing? Maybe not, but Red Velvet can, and they prove it in their latest release, Rookie. Find out if these albums are even good in episode 9 of THE Kpop Show.

 

In other news, Andrew actually follows Kpop now, Rhodri feels bad for Red Velvet, and we cry tears of joy because of Gallant's beautiful voice. Also, Andrew learns he can see the future of Kpop, Rhodri fails at pronouncing Korean names, and we tell too many jokes during our Honorable mentions.

 

Think you can handle it?

Every new Exo release is a gift to the world. In this episode we dug into the composition of their song "For Life" and discovered what we already knew: Exo is amazing.

Of course, we did other reviews as well, and picked out two of our personal favorite releases. We also talked about two of you! It's a more laid back episode, what with all the Christmas/Winter themed releases having just happened.

SHINee's new songs are the most tragic of 2016's Kpop, but only we figured it out.

But first, we thanked one of you. And of course, we have to show you the newest albums, from Mamamoo to Momoland.
