It’s next week! Awesome Korean ballad duo Fly to the Sky are united once more and dropping their 9th album on May 20th. Yesterday, they uploaded a 40 second teaser for their title song 너를 너를 너를 [Neoreul Neoreul Neorul; You You You]. It promises to be just as intense and as sad as their past ballads. I can’t wait

I’m excited the album has been released at last. This release was delayed a month because of the tragic ferry incident in South Korea. Such a heartbreaking time, it makes sense why comebacks and albums and other things were delayed. I checked after work and you can now purchase the album in the US iTunes Store! Excuse me while I

Given the recent tragedy in Korea, I think a lot of artists are keeping returns and releases a lot more quietly than they normally would. Standing Egg delayed the release of their new album until this week (I’m excited, I think it’s officially out tomorrow) and Mr.Mr’s return is simple without any huge fanfare. Mr.Mr has been a favorite of

I don’t think this is really in terms for me. I know very well who this group is as their debut song just got stuck in my head from first listen. Not normally a song style I truly like, it followed it’s title to a “T”. The thing is, like many idol groups, A.Cian kind of faded away into obscurity,

It’s May already. That means that in a month, the year will already be half over. O_O It’s been a good year for music so far, hasn’t it? While my music posts used to be purely dominated by idol releases, I have moved more towards indie music. Plus, I’ve been discovering older music, too. That being said, I’m featuring idols

This past month saw rock songs topping my list of favorites, thus the title of this post. I’m getting sick of saying Asian music recommendations every month, so trying something a lil different as with March Music Madness last month. I won’t be covering every song on this playlist, just my top faves that I absolutely must mention. Other songs

Thanks to watching reality shows like X-Man and Love Letter I discovered the group Fly to the Sky, an R&B duo that used to be under SM. They’ve been through a lot in the 10+ years they’ve been together and they have openly talked about their problems in recent years. Hwanhee went into the military at the same time MyName

It’s pretty bad when I have no recollection of purchasing albums. I think I bought Kim Woo Joo’s Before You Sleep when I was just learning about Korean music. I have this habit when exploring music. where I check out related items, give one or two songs a listen and decide then and there if I’d like to have that

Toxic. A Korean band that I have been in love with since their major debut. After falling in love with their debut song “Lonely” and falling in love with their entire mini album First Bridge, I marathoned the first season of KBS’s Top Band. I have also bought all their digital releases to date (excluding OST contributions, I might not

I have actually been listening to older songs or just obsessing over albums from the beginning of the year or later (*ahem* totally had Activity’s EP on repeat DAILY). Plus, spring is slowly making its way in and I’ve been having less time to explore or discover new music thanks to work and life and maybe even a lack of
