Which October Comeback Was The Best? [Poll]

6

You know, it’s really hard for me to sit down at the end of a month and decide which album it is that I love them most. Especially when that month has been crammed full of the most amazing comebacks! Trying to decide which album I love the most is like trying to decide which drink to order at the local coffee shop… Each one has its merit and really it all comes down to whatever fits my mood at the moment.

The same can definitely be said of this past month’s K-Pop comebacks. Each one has its merit and each one satisfies my different moods. When I’m in the mood for some good old-fashioned, make my heart skip a beat, 90’s boy-band goodness, I turn to SHINee’s 1 of 1. When I want something a bit edgier but fun, I head straight to Monsta X’s The Clan: Part 2. When I just want to feel a warm and fuzzy, I turn on 100%’s Time Leap and my heart gets all squishy as it swells with all the “I’m so happy their finally back” feels. And then there all the rookie singles, like SF9’s Feeling Sensation, or HIGH 4:20’s “Hook가” or BASTARZ “Selfish & Beautiful Girl,” which are perfect for a quick K-Pop fix. And when I simply want to die, I turn on BTS’ WINGS and wave goodbye to my soul as it departs from my mortal frame.

With so much great music out there, you can see why choosing a single album to talk about can be difficult. The choices really are almost endless and I love them all. Which is why I’m asking you to help me decide which of this past month’s comebacks should be lauded as the best. All you have to do is cast your vote for your top 3 (because who can really choose just one?) in the poll below.

TUESDAY’S TEASE: BTS, SHINee and More

6

Remember all those promises I made, about how change was coming and all that. Well, I’ve decided to start a new weekly post highlighting whatever Hallyu-related thing it is I’m most looking forward to at the moment. This could be anything from an upcoming drama (or maybe just an upcoming episode), or a bias group’s comeback, or maybe an upcoming movie that’s actually going to be shown here in Chicago, or maybe a concert… Really, it could be anything that stirs my fangirl soul, or inspires me to create a countdown clock on my phone. (Because yes, I am that level of fangirl crazy.) Continue reading “TUESDAY’S TEASE: BTS, SHINee and More”

KCON 2016: Zombie’s Adventures in LA – Day 5, Part 2

IMG_6817

Meeting up with Lola after Sunday night’s Red Carpet, we made our way over to the Staples Center, to join in the tens of thousands of other fans in line, waiting to get in. With so many people attending the final concert of KCON 2016, it took us a while to get in and find our seats. By the time we were all settled in, the opening acts had already started which meant we had almost no time to wait before the concert actually started.

KCON 2016: Zombie’s Adventures in LA – Day 5, Part 1

Running on almost no sleep, Sunday was a bit rough but with enough coffee and wild fangirl emotions coursing through me, I managed to not only get through the day without falling over but even have enough energy left to squeal myself silly during the evening’s concert.

KCON 2016: WATCH OUT LA, THE ZOMBIE’S ON HER WAY!

la

Though it’s really hard for me to believe that in less than 24 hours I’ll be in LA, the truth is I will be and that means KCON 2016 LA is only a few days away. I’ve been trying really hard not to let my inner fangirl get the better of me these past few days and I think that (so far) I’ve done a pretty good job. Sure, I might be a little bit excited about the fact that I’m only days away from seeing so many of my beloved groups again… And I might be just a tad excited about being on so many panels this year (4, to be exact)… And maybe I’m just slightly excited about being able to spend the next few days with some of most favorite people in the world… But I really haven’t let all of that get to me too much…  I don’t think… Well… Maybe I have a little bit… Maybe… *ahem* Excuse me for a moment… Continue reading “KCON 2016: WATCH OUT LA, THE ZOMBIE’S ON HER WAY!”

KCON 2016: Zombie’s Adventures in New York – Days 3 & 4

With nothing official to do at KCON until that afternoon, I let myself sleep in a bit on Saturday morning. It was nice, not having to rush straight over to the Prudential Center and I especially enjoyed a nice, relaxing breakfast with my friend. Once properly caffeinated, we gathered up our things, checked out of the hotel and made our way back to Newark, ready to enjoy another Hallyu-filled day of fun. Continue reading “KCON 2016: Zombie’s Adventures in New York – Days 3 & 4”

KCON 2016: New York, Here I Come!

KCON headerAs I’m sure many of you know, KCON NY is just a couple of days away which means it’s officially time for this zombie to start functioning solely on caffeine and adrenaline. WOOO-HOOOOOOO! (Okay, so may I should cut back on the caffeine a little… or a lot…) Continue reading “KCON 2016: New York, Here I Come!”

TUNE OF THE WEEK: BTS “Fire”

group 2

OH MY GOODNESS! When BTS started teasing us with photos and trailers and such, I knew this comeback was going to be lethal but nothing, and I mean NOTHING, could prepare me for eye-popping, squee-inducing, cuss word-provoking, heart-stopping amazingness of “Fire.” Continue reading “TUNE OF THE WEEK: BTS “Fire””

TUNE OF THE WEEK: BTS “Run”

silly boys being silly

I’m sure this week’s “Tune” comes as a surprise to absolutely no one. I mean this is BTS we’re talking about. I kinda have a habit of freaking out over them so naturally I have to squee over this comeback, and “Run” in particular, because HOLY FLIP! It’s so darn amazing I barely know where to begin!
