Okay, so I said that whenever I stumbled upon something that really struck me as awesome and amazing I’d write about it here and Oh. My. Word. Have I found something amazingly fantastic here!
B.A.P ATTACKS CHICAGO WITH A SHOW THAT’S OUT OF THIS WORLD
South Korean hip-hop group B.A.P invaded the northern Midwest Saturday night at the Star Plaza Theatre in Merrillville, Indiana, making their first appearance in the Chicago-land area as stop number three in the U.S. “B.A.P Attack” portion of their LIVE ON EARTH 2014 tour.

K-POP ONE-STOP: April 12-18, 2014
Once again, here’s a collection of this week’s K-Pop MV releases… Enjoy!
Joy O’ Clock “Sweeter”
RELEASE THE FANGIRL! CNBLUE “Still”
In a week overrun with B.A.P feels, it would seem that CNBLUE was getting a little jealous, which is probably not why they released yet another Japanese single this week but I’m telling myself that it is anyway.
MUSINGS OF A K-POP FANGIRL: When Dreams Come True
We all know that being a K-pop fangirl isn’t easy, especially when you happen to be one of the unlucky ones who happens to live half a world away from your beloved idols. We all know the sacrifices we’ve made, skipping sleep to vote for our bias groups as they make their comeback appearances on various music shows… The ridicule we’ve had to endure as those around us scoff at our undying love for a genera of music that makes no sense to them because “you can’t understand the words…” Â And the agony we live with, knowing that we’ll probably go our entire lives without ever meeting any of our idols in person… Â See? Being a K-pop fangirl is rough but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t come with its own set of rewards.

RELEASE THE FANGIRL! B.A.P Live on Earth U.S. Attack
So as I was strolling through YouTubeland last night, looking for new K-Pop tunes, I stumbled across a gem of a video from B.A.P that sent me into a fangirl tizzy like you would not believe. Though the video lacks translation, it’s not difficult to understand what they’re saying as I watched it, I slowly melted into a squishy mess of fangirl goo.

TUNE OF THE WEEK: Eric Nam “Ooh Ooh”
I’m gonna be honest here, I had the hardest time trying to figure out which song should be this week’s featured tune and after much deliberation (with no real conclusion) it came down to me asking my tweenager to decide between Eric Nam and BTS (very scientific, I know) and “Ooh Ooh” was the winner. So here you go, this week’s featured tune… Eric Nam’s “Ooh Ooh”
RELEASE THE FANGIRL! CNBLUE “Truth”
So every once in a while I’ll stumble upon a video on YouTube that just suddenly makes me go all squishy inside and I wanna share all of my fangirl gushings with the world. The problem is, I could never figure out exactly how or where to do that, until now… Welcome to “Release the Fangirl!” From now on, whenever I find something that strikes my fangirl fancy, I’m gonna share it with the world for no other reason than simply “because I can” so if fangirling isn’t  your thing, you may wan to just pass this one by.

MUSINGS OF A K-POP FANGIRL: Beware The Bias-Wreckers!
As a K-Pop fangirl, having a list of biases a mile long is nothing new… Well, at least for me it isn’t. Being a serious multi-fan, I’m always adding new idols to my bias list and I’m cool with that. I spend hours scouring the internet for new bands and comebacks, just looking to add another song to my ever-growing K-Pop playlist but every once in a while, as I’m bopping my way along a new (or even not so new) band will sneak up out of nowhere and… BAM! Suddenly my bias list has a six new members that I never saw coming. Continue reading “MUSINGS OF A K-POP FANGIRL: Beware The Bias-Wreckers!”
TUNE OF THE WEEK: Park Hyo Shin “Wild Flower”
Okay, so I fell a little behind this week, but we’re going to retroactively enjoy my Tune of the Week for last week: Park Hyo Shin’s “Wild Flower.”
Sure, I could post a bunch of screen caps, but rather than overwhelm the simplicity of the video and his beautiful voice I’m just going to tell you to trust me. Go watch it!
