EP 64 - Celebrating Moonbin

4/23/2023
Moonbin is one of our favourite humans, and we wanted to take the time to celebrate his life with you. It’s been an incredibly heartbreaking and difficult week for many of us, and in our grief, we thought of sharing some of our favourite moments with Moonbin, hoping that we would be able to shed a little positive ray of sunshine in his memory. He is one of the sweetest, compassionate, wholesome, and lovable souls. We feel extremely lucky to have been able to witness his incredible talent and infectious smile, even if it was only through a screen. We hope you’re all coping ok, sending all our love to Aroha’s, to Moonbin's family, and to Astro. To Moonbin, we hope you’re shining up there are much as you did on earth, we love you & we miss you 💜🤍 https://entertainment.inquirer.net/495822/musings-after-moonbins-death-why-do-we-cry-over-artists-who-are-unaware-of-our-existence If you have the need to talk to someone please feel free to contact us on our instagram @KPOPKORNERDXB

EP 56 - KPOP in October 2022 Recap

11/6/2022
It's that time of the year... for the ABSOLUTE WORST MONTH IN KPOP. The October Curse is real. So much has happened this month that we literally couldn't cover it all but we tried our best to give you the main news stories that happened, from VICTON and ONEUS losing a member, the usual dating rumors, OMEGA X's situation, tour dates getting cancelled, concert promoters being incompetent... IN CONCLUSION NO ONE WAS HAVING A GOOD TIME. *TW SA and DA mention 19:36 - 20:30 Thank you for listening as always <3 Like our podcast? please give us a rating if you're able to!

EP 55 - KPOP and Classical Music

10/26/2022
We noticed that A LOT of KPOP songs sample Classical music these days... LITERALLY ALMOST EVERY TITLE TRACK! So we decided to explore some of the KPOP that sample the OG sunbaenims; Mozart, Bach, Beethoven and so much more... Turns out this is not new at all, as KPOP's been doing that since the 90s!! Also heads up - we tried so hard to sound sophisticated and cultured in this episode and it just ended up with us sounding like absolute idiots. Therefore we have concluded that we really dont have the brain capacity for a topic as complicated as Classical Music :') BUT WE ENJOYED RECORDING THIS EPISODE AND WE HOPE YOU ENJOY LISTENING TO IT <3 Thank you for listening as always <3 Like our podcast? please give us a rating if you're able to!

Ep 54 - Let's Talk About VICTON...

10/22/2022
This episode is going to be a little different from what we usually do... Marah’s ult band VICTON announced Chan will be leaving the group so we decided to have a little therapy session for her to let all her emotions out... Literally it's mainly Marah crying about the whole thing :') Just to clarify - please dont confuse the sadness over Chan leaving the group with us excusing his behavior. At the end of the day every single person here deals with stress, grief, and disappointment differently, and this is our way of doing it. Dont ever feel silly for feeling a strong emotion about KPOP - KPOP's a source of comfort and form of escapism from every day life for a lot of us, so it gets extremely hard when that source of comfort becomes THE source of stress - emotions tend to get all over the place. So everything you are feeling is completely valid <3 If you want to know more about VICTON check out our VICTON GUIDE!

EP 53 - KPOP in September 2022 Recap

10/5/2022
After missing TWO KPOP MONTHS we are finally back with a monthly recap!!! And what a horrible month to recap. LITERALLY NOTHING HAPPENED... and if something did happen IT WAS AWFUL, but at least the recap was pretty short haha :') We went a little crazy with the monthly recs towards the end because we missed two months in KPOP which is equivalent to 4 business years in the non-kpop Local world.

EP 46 - KPOP in May 2022 Recap

6/10/2022
First of all we want to apologise for going ABSOLUTELY FERAL over the comebacks lol... BECAUSE EVERYONE AND THEIR MAMAS HAD A COMEBACK IN MAY!!! It was a relatively quiet month (except for the Kim Garam situation (CA Bullying) which you can skip 21:00 - 30:00) other than that it was just your average KPOP month; exciting debuts, unexpected goodbyes, e-wordings, and of course some broadcasting company getting in trouble lol.
