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!

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!

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 35 - https://open.spotify.com/episode/5K02A0OZzI4PrPqlE9EFpr?si=467731a608994dda VICTON playlist - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0XAWj3Wdkrt1CpmQ2zYZHR?si=e560a10764ad441d Connect with us!!!! - https://linktr.ee/KpopKorner

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.  Enjoy!

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.  Thank you for listening as always <3  Like our podcast? please give us a rating if you're able to!

This is perhaps our most chaotic monthly recap yet... and we apologize! Not a lot of stuff happened in April yet we still felt like we had a lot to say!

Have you ever heard people talk about certain elements in a song and had absolutely no idea what they were talking about? WELL THEN THIS EPISODE IS FOR YOU! This is a Marah’s very basic beginner’s guide TO A BEGINNER’S GUIDE to KPOP song structure and elements! In this episode Marah will cover some music terminology with examples from KPOP so that when you want to talk about a KPOP song you sound like you know your sh*t. PSA - We are 100% not experts in this subject and this is just information gathered after doing research and asking people who studied music theory. If there are any mistakes please let us know nicely because I (Marah) will cry 😂 Antichorus Playlist - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3ez9nfv3M5ctlgYyCSLYpQ?si=ae2ad78280d845eb https://kaitlinbove.com/elements-of-music https://wmich.edu/mus-gened/mus150/Ch1-elements.pdf https://tunebat.com https://songbpm.com Special thanks to Jon.K & UN3H from AMAK Server Check out Ask Me About Kpop podcast, it's great!
