Album Review | BoA - 10th Studio Album [BETTER]

My first ever BoA album - what an experience. This woman has some stable vocals, I can tell you that much!

I re-listened to the album 2-3 times the days after recording this and now have a final ranking for this as well, which goes as follows:
Cut Me Off > All That Jazz > Start Over > Little Bird > Got Me Good > Cloud > Honey & Diamonds > Gravity > Temptatio...

[Reality Show] TWICE: Seize the Light - Episode 8 & 9 (FINAL)

We've already arrived at the end - the final episodes of TWICE: Seize the Light. It was a nice journey to go on with them together. I personally learned a lot about the members and especially face wise thought I could identify them way better than before I started watching this show.

I know I know, I still didn't manage to find them all at the end. But it has gotten so much better. I used...

[K-Drama] It's Okay to Not Be Okay - Episode 6

We're back with another episode for IOTNBO, this time around with episode 6 - finally a leap of faith from the main leads!

I was honestly much much much more satisfied with this episode than with the last one. It really felt validating to see some progress for once and not try to change something but then end up going around in circles once again.

I still stand by the opinion that M...

Reaction | Girls' Generation 少女時代 'PAPARAZZI' MV

Finally am back to checking out more SNSD stuff, has been way too long. I told myself that I should have maybe learned the members better before keeping to react to them but then I slowly realized over the past weeks that even me watching content doesn't help much and I'd need an active comeback from them to study them better. Since that is not gonna happen in the foreseeable future I'd assume,...

[Survival Show] SMTM9 - 'VVS' (Feat. JUSTHIS) (Prod. GroovyRoom) MV

My life is shining like a VVS <3

Time for me some more SMTM9 brilliance, this is a hella good song man.. I keep repeating it all day and although I probably enjoy the original stage, with Miranni & Mushvenom only, a bit more than this final song I still enjoy this one hella much.

If you didn't know this song yet, you're welcome.

[Survival Show] Show Me The Money 9 - Episode 6

Let's gooooo, SMTM9 Episode 6 time! Finally! This took the subbing team some time and I feel them, it's long..

I was overall very happy with this episode. Probably my fav episode so far? And there's actually some banger stages that came out of this song battle. I won't spoil for ya'll what happened in the Reaction but... I got fucking emotional.

Thanks M & M

We're watching episode 6 & 7 of TWICE's documentary! This time around we get to follow them along their world tour stops in 2019.

I found this super interesting to watch and actually quite helpful to learn the members as well. May I finally learn TWICE members? Who knows lmao

[K-Drama] It's Okay to Not Be Okay - Episode 5

Back again with another episode of It's Okay To Not Be Okay! This one was rough for me, I was constantly confronted with the characters' personalities..

I don't know what else to add here. I really hope they will change, but so many of them are inherently toxic in this show that it makes me somewhat mad. There is also little to no sign of change visible yet in that. All that seems to chan...

Reaction | Dreamcatcher -「NO MORE」MV

Dreamcatcher just released their new Japanese Single called "NO MORE" and its MV. This is still more an Animation MV / Lyric Video than a real Music Video.

The "real" MV supposedly comes out soon.

What are your thoughts on this song? I personally was not as connected with this as I am with most DC songs.

Ayy, let's go! Time for another episode of SMTM9. This one took the subbing team a while, that's why I'm only reacting to it now.

I personally disliked a few decisions in this episode. I'm not entirely sure on the producers' reasoning either. It's a bit sad they didn't explain it and in general there were not many "interview scenes" of producers/judges talking this time around. Feels real...

Episode 4 of IOTNBO was probably my favorite episode so far - and a very different one compared to EP 3 in fact..

The story unfolds more and more and we get to know more about the characters' pasts. I would love to watch more episodes of this drama faster, and I might do so once I finish my other ongoing drama that I watch on my own right now - Stranger Season 2.

These were of my two first live stages of 2NE1 I ever saw. The only other one I have in mind right now is their legendary 2015 MAMA performance that I have seen many years ago, maybe even when it came out.

Let's goooo and watch the other cyphers! This episode was packed with amazing raps and honestly this round is probably my favorite out of every season. Every single rapper gets his spotlight (sometimes not as fairly split screentime wise tbh, but oh well -- it's MNET after all) and we get to explore so much nice rap.

I am honestly super impressed with the Dynamic Duo x BewhY team. Almost ...

Continuing the TWICE: Seize the Light documentary, today we got episode 4 and 5!

I really like this series and I feel like it helps me learn a lot about the members personally but also how to identify them better. I hope I can actually tell them apart by the end of this show or at least be way better at it!

Do you like this show so far?
