RELEASE THE FANGIRL! MAMA 2014

EXO 1

You know, when I woke up this morning and realized I was up early enough to catch part of the 2014 MAMA broadcast live, I was pretty stoked. It’t not every day you get to settle in front of your computer with a cup of coffee and a slice of banana bread and watch so many of your favorite idols perform in one place and I thought to myself, “Oh, what a lovely way to start my day!” I should have known that the calm and peaceful morning I’d been expecting was never going to happen because, well, anything involving K-Pop generally ends in me spazzing.

poor kid

Hey everyone! Hallyu Tanya, Drama Debussie and I are back with our review of the latest episodes of The Greatest Marriage (and yes, we’re reviewing two at once because last week was a pretty major holiday here in the States and it totally messed with our schedules).

Ken, Hongbin, N, Leo, Hyuk 1

Well, it took me a while to get through all my concert pictures but I finally did and, as promised, I’m ready to share them with the world. I hope you enjoy this second set of pictures as much as the first and I hope it brings back as many fond memories of this night spent with VIXX as it does for me. Enjoy!

WHEN A PICTURE IS WORTH A THOUSAND WORDS: VIXX IN CHICAGO (Part 1)

Group 1

Okay, so here’s the deal. I have tons of pictures from VIXX’s concert in Chicago that I will never be able to use because I just can’t write enough articles about them and the concert to warrant using over 1200 pictures, so rather than let them go to waste, just sitting on my computer, I’ve decided to just put them all up here and let you enjoy them as you will. Just so you know, I’ve only gotten through about half my pictures so there will be more coming in the near-ish future but I hate making you wait for them when I have all of these ready to go. So, enjoy these pics of VIXX in Chicago and if you want to know what it was like to actually be at this concert, you can read all about my experience here.

Musings of K-Pop Fangirl: The Dangers of Having an Ultimate Bias

Group 1

You know, when I first got into K-Pop, I was a pretty casual listener. I’d find a group I liked, give them a listen, appreciate their music and move on. It was a simple life, full of good times and great music but as time went on and my love for K-Pop grew, I began to notice that some bands were stealing a bit more of my time and attention. At the time, I didn’t think much of this, as I chalked it all up to being a fan of the music, but as time went on I found myself skipping over different artists in, what I thought, was an innocent quest to find more music from artists that had somehow managed to catch my eye.

RELEASE THE FANGIRL! Stop It, GOT7! Just Stop!

Opening

It’s no secret that this past weekend I’ve been off in Starlight heaven, taking full advantage of a rare opportunity to swoon over my beloved VIXX in person, but now that VIXX has gone and I’m forced back into reality on my lonely side of the planet, I’ve been forced to turn to other loves, to help me cope with the pain of the most excruciating bout of post concert depression I have ever experienced in my entire fangirl life. Continue reading “RELEASE THE FANGIRL! Stop It, GOT7! Just Stop!”
