It's been an exciting few weeks for fans of Produce 101 alumni. A week ago we had former I.O.I member Kim Sejeong's Plant, and now former Wanna One members Kang Daniel and Ong Seong Wu have released solo comebacks on back to back days. Unfortunatly, neither of those aforementioned tracks really left much of mark … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Gravity – Ong Seong Wu
Stray Kids had an incredible 2019, releasing two of the years strongest and most unique singles in Miroh and Side Effects. But inbetween these blockbuster singles, the group have also been releasing multiple album tracks and mixtapes to keep their ever growing fanbase well fed. Most of these songs have been pleasent, but have lacked … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Mixtape: On Track – STRAY KIDS
I've had a very scatter shot history with Winner. While I loved most of their early material with former member Nam Taehyun, most of their work as a quartet has left alot to be desired. I've liked almost all their the songs initially, but only a few have been able to last the test of … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Hold – WINNER
While SEVENTEEN have been releasing some of K-pop's strongest singles in their homeland of Korea, their Japanese work has been much more scattershot. Other than their brilliant high energy 2018 debut, Call Call Call!, they've embraced a much more moody and dark sound. This has impacted both their recent Korean material, as well as their … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Fallin Flower – SEVENTEEN
What can I say that hasn't already been said about Kang Daniel? I mean the guy is a CEO, Produce 101 winner, the nations centre, former Wanna One member, and most importantly god Jihyo's boyfriend. And that's what makes much of his solo work baffling to me. With so much talent at his disposal, his … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: 2U – Kang Daniel
RBW Entertainment's ONEUS were on of my top rookies of 2019, bursting out of the gate with the incredible Valkyrie and an equally potent mini album. Followup Twilight was also great, but further projects such as Lit and 808 never really did anything for me. While they group still provided excellent album tracks like A … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: A Song Written Easily – ONEUS
Well this is one long overdue review. I've known about SixTONES and their long anticipated debut Imitation Rain since its release all the way back in January, but I never really found the time to give it a proper listen. The shortened music video also didn't help my cause. But ever since the Covid-19 outbreak … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Imitation Rain – SixTONES

That’s why every week I will be taking a look back at some of K-pop’s most exciting and iconic tracks that were released before the conception of this blog to shed some light on this … Continue reading Retro Rewind: Come Back Home – 2NE1
During her stint on Produce 101 and resulting group IOI, Kim Sejeong always stood out to me as one of the more interesting members. While she has an incredible voice, it was her undeniable charisma and ability to hook you immediately that really transformed her into a bonafide star. And while her own group Gugudan … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Plant – Kim Sejeong
Eyedi has always been a weird artist for me to properly assess. Her brand of psychedelic lo-fi synth-pop is completely unique within the K-pop landscape, and this often results in a number of singles that are either absolute knockouts, or complete let downs. Last years hypnotic &new luckily fell into the former category, providing one … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: J.us.T – Eyedi
