More concerts are being dropped for BTS, Monsta X & Wonho. BTS drops 4 dates in L.A for Permission to Dance on Stage, Monsta X joins 4 dates for iHeartRadio's Jingle Ball tour and Wonho's Spotify indicates two U.S tour dates. Join Jade and I as we process the news, whether we can/should wing it & will they cancel in the end?

Join us for another corner chat where we discuss Ateez & Wonho's newest albums and M/Vs, Monsta X's all English single One Day, their photobook Chillax Mode & I.M's single Loop/Baverse documentary as well as other current events.

Multi-stans... how do you do it? This week Jade and I discuss the current comebacks (Stray Kids) & collaboration releases (Pentatonix/Ateez & Megan thee Stallion/BTS) as well as the forth coming comebacks (Ateez & Wonho) and how much our wallets are screaming. We also discuss other K-pop current events as well.

Jade and I discuss our opinions on what we think should be normalized in the K-pop industry. Openly dating, sticking up for themselves against toxic fans and being treated as humans just to name a few. In true K-pop Corner fashion, we also talk about the fun current events happening.

Welcome back to another lovely corner chat. This time Jade and I are discussing the exciting and unexpected release of Monsta X's Universe Music single "KISS OR DEATH". We then address some serious MBB fandom drama that has been happening lately. *TW: for anyone sensitive to the topic of body image.

Regardless of the subject, all fandoms have their levels of toxicity. However, K-pop communities seem to harbor just as much hate as they do love. Join Jade and I as we talk about the problems of toxic fan culture and fandom wars inside K-pop. Don't worry, to lighten things up we included  some Monsta X & BTS fun talk too!

If you'd like to listen to the full audio recording of my fan call with I.M, here it is! I give a small run down of the fan call experience, but to hear more details about it, Jade and I discuss it at the start of Ep 11 so please check that out. Also, I have included my original song "Always Together" after the fan call audio in case you're interested in the song I was talking to I.M about right b...

Welcome back to another corner chat. Join Jade and I as we talk about my first fan call experience, the MBB 6th gen. membership kit, BTS' 4 photo concepts for Butter and the current announcements and/or changes happening with SM & HYBE. The globalization of K-pop is just beginning.

Corner chat - wrapping up the Monsta X One of a Kind comeback and promotions. Join us as we discuss the successes Monbebe & Monsta x have achieved in this comeback, the live comeback stage performances, the Gambler dance practice video (a MBB favorite), and the physical album art. We also talk about the hot topic published in a recent Billboard article. Eshy, Monsta X and Wonho's U.S manager,...

Join us for another exciting Corner Chat. This time it's exclusively Monsta X. We're discussing the groups' latest title track "Gambler", their 007 inspired M/V, as well as their bad***, brand new, One of a Kind mini album. I recommend having some water on hand because this comeback will leave you parched. 

Corner Chats = endless discussions about K-pop. Apologies for the 3 hour long episode lol. Join Jade and I as we discuss the week's current events: Monsta X's One of a Kind comeback, BTS' all English single Butter, Wonho's Aint About You music video & my lucky up coming Flavors of Love fan call.

The love for K-pop coupled with the power of the internet, allows for fans from all over the world to meet and create friendships stemming from this one commonality. I met Jade through TikTok when I was looking for new guests for this podcast. We hit it off and here we are. Join my new friend Jade and I as we talk about her first comeback season, and her new found love for Monsta x, Wonho & K-...

Is your S/O into K-pop too? Or are they a non K-pop fan like mine? Join us are we discuss his views on K-pop, the genre from a musical stand point and how he feels about having a finace who is "addicted" or "obsessed" with it. A light hearted conversation between a K-pop stan and a non K-pop fan.

Join us in our discussion on whether or not K-pop has changed our taste in music or what we look for in a significant other or just in our beauty standards in general.  *Just a side note in our debate about the Monsta X Right Now bungee jumping debate - Luanne was right lol. 

Episode 4 (per our friends' suggestion) is all about girl groups! We may be a bit biased towards boy groups, but we still appreciate and want to talk about all the talented ladies in K-Pop. Join us as we talk about girl groups we already know, the ones we want to know more about and the overall  difference in treatment between girl groups and boy groups. Please email us at thekpopcornerpodcas...

With the sale of physical albums declining and the rise of digital streaming platforms increasing, why is South Korea so successful when it comes to marketing a product seen as "obsolete" here in the U.S and across the globe?  Join me, Kendra, in a discussion about how K-pop's genius marketing hooks the consumer, creates an entire community and user experience around it, and uses our love for...

Join us for this special mini episode made specifically to discuss, fan-girl, and celebrate I.M's first solo mini album, Duality!  Spoiler alert - if you haven't watched the music video for his title track "God Damn" and don't want us to spoil any of it, I would recommend watching it because we discuss specific imagery and scenes.
