They're getting older ..."

I know I really worry for them!!! I was also happy when PTD came out and to see that the choreography is less intense.

Omg that's so awesome that you've never gotten the same photocard twice!!! And oooooooooohhhh a message from Hobi!! I really wish I could read their messages and their notes that usually come with their albums. Like on the "Be" cd, i wish I could read their acknowledgements on their poster. Oh well

Hey, I'm so sorry about the book reads!!! Being active has been so hard for me, and I really really wanted to lead the book club read but I've been swamped with AP summer assignments and now I'm in a two-week AP Calculus AB boot-camp, so I'm so overwhelmed right now! I do want to try to hold a book club read, but I am not sure when would be a good time for me and the group. If you would like to lead one, I would be glad to help you plan it and set it up for you! Message me if that's the case!

I got the 'Peaches' version!! I actually realized that I wanted the 'Peaches' version before I got it because I..."

AWESOME!!!!! My sister just bought the Peaches version from B&N and she loves the poster!!!!!!!!!!!!! I want to get the Cream version, just so it's different from what she has.

Which photocard did you get? My sister got the Namjoon one and the message from Jin. She was surprised because she somehow always gets a J-Hope photocard. I know she loves them all, but she keeps hoping she'll get JK one day.

Mesa *BTS 'Permission To Dance'* wrote: "Who preordered the 'Butter' CD??!! I did!!!!!!! I'm SO ecstatic! What about you guys? Did anyone preorder it? You won't get to have a poster that only comes with the CD if you don't preorder it! Yo..."

OMG I DID NOT KNOW THIS WAS COMING OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I won't be able to pre-order it, so hopefully I can run to Target and physically purchase it!!!!!

Are you hoping for the Peaches version or Cream version? I'm sure both will be stunning, but do you have a preference? Orange and yellow are two of my favorite colors, but I'm leaning more towards the Cream version.

Did anyone see Tomorrow x Together's performance on The Late Late Show with James Corden? This was my first time watching TXT perform!! I gotta say, they are very, very talented dancers! So light on their feet! I also really liked the song!

We could mention in the group info that we accept all kpop fans, but have a BTS bias? It's your call

Guys, have you seen their Rolling Stone covers?!! I actually have a subscription and was so surprised to see their group cover come in the mail!!!

Also, their segment on the late show with stephen colbert was hilarious and their performance of butter is amazing!!!!!

Mesa, I don't mind changing it to Simply Kpop! If that's what you would like, then I'm all for it! Fyi I know very little about other kpop groups, but that's okay!! I am fine making a new header, or keeping the same one but just changing it to say Simply Kpop. Let me know!


Sorry i havent been moderating the book club reads, things have been crazy for me lately. Hope you're having a great summer, Mesa!

I know i love this album toooooooooooo!!! I think that it's some of their best work!! The only song i dont really like is DNA Pedal 2 LA Mix, but only because i think the original DNA is superb. It's one of my favorite songs of all time! Singularity, The Truth Untold, and Airplane Pt. 2 are some of my all-time faves as well!!!

Omg i will just observe this discussion from the sideline because i have not actually read english translations for any of their songs so I have no idea what these could be. This will be a good learning experience for me though!!!

Here is the Goodreads synopsis:

A Korean American teen is thrust into the competitive, technicolor world of K-pop, from Jessica Jung, K-pop legend and former lead singer of Girls Generation.

What would you give for a chance to live your dreams?

For seventeen-year-old Korean American Rachel Kim, the answer is almost everything. Six years ago, she was recruited by DB Entertainment—one of Seoul’s largest K-pop labels, known for churning out some of the world’s most popular stars. The rules are simple: Train 24/7. Be perfect. Don’t date. Easy right?

Not so much. As the dark scandals of an industry bent on controlling and commodifying beautiful girls begin to bubble up, Rachel wonders if she’s strong enough to be a winner, or if she’ll end up crushed… Especially when she begins to develop feelings for K-pop star and DB golden boy Jason Lee. It’s not just that he’s charming, sexy, and ridiculously talented. He’s also the first person who really understands how badly she wants her star to rise.

As of today, this book has an average rating of 3.51 with 3,693 ratings and 1,060 reviews. This is a YA Contemporary/Romance ownvoices Korean rep.

Here is the Goodreads synopsis:

The world of K-Pop has never met a star like this. Debut author Lyla Lee delivers a deliciously fun, thoughtful rom-com celebrating confidence and body positivity—perfect for fans of Jenny Han and Julie Murphy.

Skye Shin has heard it all. Fat girls shouldn’t dance. Wear bright colors. Shouldn’t call attention to themselves. But Skye dreams of joining the glittering world of K-Pop, and to do that, she’s about to break all the rules that society, the media, and even her own mother, have set for girls like her.

She’ll challenge thousands of other performers in an internationally televised competition looking for the next K-pop star, and she’ll do it better than anyone else.

When Skye nails her audition, she’s immediately swept into a whirlwind of countless practices, shocking performances, and the drama that comes with reality TV. What she doesn’t count on are the highly fat-phobic beauty standards of the Korean pop entertainment industry, her sudden media fame and scrutiny, or the sparks that soon fly with her fellow competitor, Henry Cho.

But Skye has her sights on becoming the world’s first plus-sized K-pop star, and that means winning the competition—without losing herself.



As of today, this book has a 4.09 rating average with 4,555 ratings and 1,352 reviews. This is a YA Contemporary/Romance ownvoices Korean rep that includes LGBT rep.
