My sister and I made another video. This time it’s a mash-up of 12 of our favorite K-pop songs. We’ve all watched K-pop music videos. Arguably the videos are one of the best parts about K-pop. For almost every top hit, there is a music video to […]
Check out my entry for the contest “I’m Korea’s Biggest Fan”. Korea.net and KBS World are hosting this event and are giving away a trip to South Korea. This video focuses on how I came to love so many great things about Korea. Food, fashion, K-pop, and K-Dramas all […]
G-Dragon is constantly in the media’s spotlight. I mean, he is G-Dragon after all. With his never ending talent, awesomely unique fashion, and wonderfully enjoyable music videos, his popularity in Asia is more than cemented. But things are starting to change.

Last Saturday I had the pleasure to go to a wonderful talent competition in Chicago (well, actually Skokie). It showcased Chicago’s best and brightest Asian American musicians and performers. While I am not Asian American myself, years of learning Chinese and studying abroad in Asia has exposed me […]
When I first saw an Asian pop music video, my response was laughter. I watched because I couldn’t look away from what appeared to be a sparkly train wreck. I gathered my friends around to witness the craziness, all under this guise of “look how funny this is”. […]
I’ve been to many, many concerts. I’ve also taken many, many pictures of Asian celebrities. I know, it’s a bit of a strange hobby, but I certainly enjoy it and I think it’s pretty cool that I can now share with others my hobby. When I first started […]
