HEARTS2HEARTS Crunchy heart Medley

IT SEEEEMS "Oh!" is going to be the remake.

A shame because it's not SNSD's strongest song vocally but it is a HUGE hit of theirs, maybe even their biggest after Gee which I think will bring the Korean public to their side for sure.

I can't wait to see more and more of their content! It would not be an exaggeration to say I listen to the Chase on repeat most days and it still feels new, so obsessed.

Enjoy!

Le Sserafim HOT Mini Album

I WAS gonna put this on youtube but naaaaaaah lool

I summarise my feelings at the end at the end but lack of consistent branding is making them feel like they're not doing anything that stands out or feels artistic.

The music video is one of their best though imo. The bsides, i don't know, nothing I'd rush to listen back to.

All of this is a shame cos Crazy was their SWEET SPOT.

I even forgot to rate the album but it's a C- for me.

TXT 1N2D

I warmed up to it eventually but that first game definitely could've been executed in a more interesting quicker way!

I do love that 1N2D have interesting concepts in there with their variety stuff.

This is probably much better than their own variety content so i'll see how the second episode is for sure.

Seulgi, Yeji & Zerobaseone Dances

Seulgi - That choreo was SO impressive, it's a shame it peaked too early but it gagged me!!

Yeji - Effortless performance, I expected no less.

ZB1 - EASILY their best dance practice so far and love how they were dressed. This direction suits them!!

Enjoy!

Jooyeon Masked Singer Performances

How disappointing is this audio?

Honestly if this was my discovery of Jooyeon I wouldn't have been moved at all.

I'm glad I watched the Immortal Songs performance right after because you can IMMEDIATELY hear the difference and remembered why I love him so much cos i was starting to wonder if i'd gaslight myself into loving him?? lool.  The Depth, power and richness is so PRESENT in his voice yet was completely suppressed on masked singer.

I just hope the audience go...

Kazuha Mujin Service

WELL WHAT A PLEASANT SURPRISE!!

This is actually one of my favourite episodes so far because she really has a unique instrument but has MASTERFUL discipline and control over it.

Not all great singers have to belt or have the biggest voices. To be able to command a song with dynamics and emotion whilst incorporating vibrato, range and ease is always enjoyable!

I'd love to hear her sing more R&B and also hear what kind of layers and harmonies she'd do cos I know they'd ...

ZEROBASEONE 1N2D ep 2 & BLUE Recording

This was SOOO funny omfg.

I got some real good laughs in. Their chemistry once again is just sooo effortless and natural. Ricky shined in so many moments LOOL, his personality just shines now with his more fluent Korean.

Hanbin's reactions and variety skills are still second to none! A shame they don't have more content like this of their own!

The recording was also impressive. Everyones vocals have grown so much! Gyuvin really susprised me actually and the usuals did very...

Jennie 'RUBY' Album Reaction

An album.

A masterpiece.

I don't even think she genuinely needs to release anything else after this LOOOL. I've never experienced anything like this. EASILY the BEST solo debut I've ever seen from a K-pop artist.

She is a creative and musical genius, her vision for what she wants to say and express comes across SOOOO authentically it's jaw dropping. Her range whilst remaining cohesive shows how brilliant she is.

I GROSSLY underestimated her simply because of the sa...

SEULGI Accidentally on Purpose Reaction

It's really hard to aritculate what I want from Seulgi but I think Praying is a great start. It's not purely about her just doing r&b but doing something that really works for her and is something only SHE can do.

And filming Yeji and Jennie after only highlighted more of what is missing for me with her.

In this case, when she does it, I'll know. Perhaps it's choreo that's really unique, exciting and innovative. It doesn't feel like she's utilisiling her talents in a way tha...

BE:FIRST Tokyo Dome 2024 Concert

WOW.

VOCALS VOCALS VOCALS!

This definitely joins Stray Kids as my favourite concerts I've ever watched! They LEFT EVERYTHINGG on that stage and gave their all AND the microphones were ON!!!!!!!!!

The setlist also kept things interesting without staying in one vibe for too long, there was such a sense of freedom in how they performed YET they still have disciplined to deliver great choreo moments and stage presence.

My heart belongs to my fellow Taurean KING RYOKI. ...

An Tae Gyu Mujin Service (mostly performances)

Nicole you were right!

Easily the best male vocalist I've seen on this show. He might even have a better instrument than Mujin HIMSELF!! Of course there were many great technical singers here, Seungkwan, Doyoung, Sangyeon etc but this guy has a flawless instrument.

Tons of clarity, freedom but also the most BEAUTIFUL free and soulful vibrato when belting! It makes me want to listen to his music because it's so rare for a rock singer to have such finnesse and soul. I need him to do...

Street Dance Girls Fighter Ep 4

I was feeling really impatient and irritable today, dunno why lol. I just wanted to see the performances and get past all the unnecessary flaff!!

I'm not shocked Lachica got eliminated! They put up a good fight though.

I'll miss Gabee though, she's SO FUNNY omg. 1million and Jam Republic put on some STELLAR performances though omg.

No comments? hmm

Enjoy!

HEARTS2HEARTS Ep 1 & The Chase Dance practice rewatch

LET'S GAUR!!

These girls are SO tactile it's sooo endearing, this is truly the benefit of spending a lot of time together prior to debuting, they're so comfortable with eachother which makes for easy and effortless chemistry between them!

I loved Jiwoo in this, shows that she really is introverted and shows more of who she is when she is with her own people! Carmen, A-na and Ian also were also a joy!

Yuha's confidence ONCE AGAIN showing why she's my bias. I love that she's...

J Hope Hope on the street concert!

Well I wanted to do something new!!

Although I had some critiques and some songs I didn't enjoy I'm SO glad I got to the end and even found songs I adored!

It totally makes sense why he would want to move away from performing as an "idol" and embodying a full on rock/hip hop persona however as one of the best dancers in K-pop, it was a little disappointing not seeing some really full out dance sequences within his own songs.

Same goes for the staging too, he could do pull...

HEARTS2HEARTS - The chase (perf vid) & Debut Trailer behind

My daughters.

There's not to much to say besides, I'm obsessively watching new content to see if i can figure out more and more about them lol.

Pure star quality from them from the JUMP!!

I am curious though how you all feel about Ian being more dominant whilst the leader Jiwoo takes such a back seat in interviews. Ian maybe like that overly eager younger sibling lol.

Enjoy!

ZEROBASEONE 1N2D ep 1

Personalities GALORE!!

Gunwook is absolutely my bias now I think lol. He is sooo confident and witty and talented but tbh everyone had me belly laughing here.

Taerae's impression of Yujin, Hanbin's reaction and Ricky's jokes now that he's more comfortable with Korean. There were just so many killer moments in this whole thing lool.

Gyuvin's smile and joy is SOO infectious man.

I will definitely be watching the next one!

Enjoy!

NCT Dream Rainbow Dream ep 1-3

GOD this was so fucking funny LOOL. I really laughed out loud.

Haechan at the start but also Jaemin just being Jaemin. They're so witty and comfortable and have great senses of humour that's right up my street.

I'm glad I took my time getting to their content.

Chenle was tickling me too. Concert reaction coming soon!

Enjoy!

Kickflip B-roll Mama Said Dance Behind

Chemistry! These guys seem to be have a very comfortable bond with each other and I love it!

I'm excited to see their growth because they also have good vocals and I love that they're not super uniform in their dancing and have their own styles in how they execute the choreo.

I will be watching their other variety content i'm sure at some point!

I kept some of my singing in the end lol but ya'll don't need to hear me having a PEEE.

Enjoy!

Boy Next Door 'Nice Guy' recording & Dance practice

WOONHAK. That is all!!

I love him!! His passion and confidence and for good reason, he delivers and knows what he's doing.

It's wild to me how much vocal talent is hidden in this group that doesn't always stand out in the music but it's fine. I do think their music makes sense for them and I wouldn't want them to do music I like but I think we're getting to a middle ground where the music has some hooks and production I can appreciate!

The dance practice also DELIVERED. Thou...

aespa Whiplash recording and dance behind

Giselle and Karina's voices were MADE for this song!

But Winter and Ningning also SHINED, it can't be denied. The vocals are so solid between the four of them it's always fun to hear.

Winter really was present in that dance practice, it may be the editing but you can't edit what's not there and her passion for checking and fixing the choreo is great to see!

They do seem more introverted here, perhaps they were very busy and just wanted to be focused on the work which make...

Taerae Mujin Service

Ohh this was fun!

I feel like I know his voice pretty well already but it was great to hear it in more depth and pick out the moments that sometimes irk me technically.

His ear for harmony is so REFRESHING and shows how often and easily he harmonises with his members/friends.

I'd love for his voice to feel freeer in the higher belts but tbh I think he's improved regardless in that aspect.

Enjoy!

EDIT: Erm is the comment section not working here or something??????...

NEXZ & P1HARMONY Karaoke

YOOO I HAVE A BIAS IN NEXZ

I'm so consistent too, I can't believe he's the same one from ride the vibe that I was obsessed with. His vocals are SO DELICIOUS (watch to find out who i'm talking about). But also Tomoya has a great voice!!

P1harmony were also great!! Love the songs they got a lot more and Jiung especially shined for me, there's something about him I gravitate towards! Keeho was Keeho as always haha.

Enjoy!

&TEAM Fanmeet 2025

OMGGGGG

How is it possible to love these guys more and more?!?!

Fuma is an undercover assassin, I'm noticing more and more what a magnificent vocalist he is, I hope he gets more chances to shine but I think he's my favourite vocalist now and his name cousin Yuma, EMBODIES stage presence!! What an amazing performer, giving K a run for his money!!

I enjoyed this so much.

Big Suki is an experience, I HAD to watch it multiple times lol. I'm SOO excited to see what they...

Street Dance Girl Fighter ep 3

These kids are sooooo entertaining and also HILARIOUS, especially HOOK hahaha.

There is a sense of competition but in an age appropriate way! So they don't make it SUPER intense like it is for the adults and i'm only catching on to that now lol.

Would've loved to see how they would do a mega crew mission though.

Enjoy!

Zerobaseone BLUE Mini

Their BEST album to date.

We SIMPLY need more from them cos they're starting to really SIT in their bag of their music!!

I really enjoyed this and the subunits. Hopefully we get an amazing full album in the summer or late summer and then one more mini before dis-gunshot

Hanbins vocals MAN!

Enjoy

&Team Failed Variety reaction & Big Suki Fancam

It's soooooo hard to find variety that clicks and is enjoyable these days. No one comes close to RUN BTS or Going Seventeen. The industry doesn't bother to do things that are produced in a way that's REAAALLY entertaining.

It's probably fine to watch off camera, but to react? Nah. And no I don't specifically mean this one which I knew was supposed to be more straight forward and chill, but even the others concepts, they're not as stimulating and I think newer gen groups also don't have...

NCT Dream 'Flying Kiss' Recording!

BRO.

Chenle and Haechan DEMOLISHED this song omgg.

The details and runs and even specific use of vibrato, possibly their best overall vocal performances.

ONCE AGAIN Jisung SHINES. His belts really came through. Man I GENUINELY want him to do a solo, there's soo much potential there and his voice is so sultry and RICH. I pray he does something like V's layover in the future! PLEASE!!

I THINK I'm curious about their variety content now lol finally. Because i think th...

GOT7 'Python' Recording & Dance Practice!

ARGH Jinyoung, the man that you are! He was such a stand out for me through all of this. His execution and sense of pitch and placement is as SMOOTH and appropriate as his dancing!

Yugyeom also once again shined throughout here. He REALLY suited a couple of the songs and honestly hearing them with their fresh takes gave the songs much more life than the end product! Maybe when I revisit them I'll enjoy them a lot more.

It's great to see how happy JayB and Youngjae are this time ...

Onepact Pink Crush Album

We thank God for their voices but the music is ... forgettable.

It's really nice but it lacks identity that matches with their VOCAL TALENT! Especially when other groups who are from small companies can still release amazing music!

Nothing else to say really. Also i miss Jongwoo's old face. Didn't even recognise him until after the fact

Enjoy!

Select SMTOWN performances & SNSD

NCT DREAM/WISH/127, Red Velvet, Aespa, WAYV

I think some of the picks and arrangements were a little uninspired but I will always enjoy seeing juniors cover their seniors songs!

SNSD ATE with the cover, my God Taeyeon's voice is a wonder and it was great seeing Sooyoung and Hyoyeon sing more too! Shame about the song but i'll get used to it i'm sure.

Enjoy!
