First post. Let me introduce myself.

I’m Kyles, and I’ve been watching Running Man for seven years now.

Started off with the best Kvariety show, then eventually discovered Kpop, which I’ve been listening to for four years now.

In the process, I got to know about Kdramas, and ever since I’ve been obsessed with everything Korean.

I got into Running Man cause…Well I have no idea why actually. I only remember searching for the first episode and I kept on watching, even till now. Currently I watch Kvariety shows daily, with current favourites being Knowing Brothers, Running Man(of course),Idol Room and Return of Superman. I also watch A LOT of other shows but to name all of them would be exhausting so I’ll leave that to another post.

For Kpop, the first ever Kpop group I had interest in was CLC, which I heard of from my friends who were already into Kpop. So I started watching YouTube videos of them which led me to my first ever Kpop bias and my first ultimate Kpop group, Twice.

The reason I fell for Twice: Momo dancing to 2PM’s My House

Don’t know if it’s related to me originally liking to dance, but most times I’ve found that I like the main dancers of the group.

So after that I kept stanning more and more groups, with my current faves being Red Velvet, Twice, Stray Kids, Nu’est and Mamamoo

With that being said I seem to stan an extremely large amount of other individuals in the Kpop world and if I had to list them all it would be way too long and I’d probably forget some lol so I’ll just give some examples

People I stan(order by anyone I just think of first):Amber(Fx), Key(Shinee), Yoojung(I.O.I/Weki Meki), Sejeong(I.O.I./Gugudan), Somi, Jackson(Got7), Eric Nam,Jimin from ASC, Chaeyeon(Izone), Changmin(TVXQ), Donghae(Suju), Ten (NCT), Taeyong (NCT), Taeyeon (SNSD), Tiffany (SNSD), Suzy (MissA), Sunmi (Wonder Girls), Junho (2PM), Gikwang (Highlight), Sungjae (BTOB), Bomi (Apink), Jisoo (Blackpink), P.O.(Block B), Hani(EXID), Chungha(I.O.I), Samuel, Jeong Sewoon, Boa, Ailee, Akdong Musician, Loco, Henry, Jisung(NCT), Joon(g.o.d.), Hong Jin Young, Sunny(SNSD), and others I can’t recall(hey a KARD reference)

I know, that’s way too many right? But I love them all seriously so much.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

As for Kdramas, I prefer ones that are light and romantic, so I do my research quite thoroughly usually before I start a new drama to make sure that it has a good ending and/or good reviews. My absolute favorite Kdrama of all time though would have to be Goblin from TVN. From all the dramas I’ve watched this one has to be the best hands down with the plot, cast and their OSTs altogether making the perfect drama. Close second would be Strong Woman Do Bong Soon, I would say I like the plot and cast a tad bit better here, but the OSTs just weren’t as good so overall I’d rate this a veryyyy close second.

As of now I’ve watched a number of Kdramas, with my first one being the Descendants of the Sun starring Song Joong Ki and Song Hye Kyo the legendary couple. The reason I started watching was because it had been such a long time since I had heard of Joong Ki after he left Running Man and I was quite curious of the drama as it gained so much popularity all over the world. I decided to give it a go and here I am now completely trash for Kdramas. Right now I’ve just started Boyfriend starring Park Bo Gum and Song Hye Kyo as well as Clean with Passion For Now starring Yoon Kyun Sang and Kim Yoo Jung, planning to update on those here later on.

                      

And that concludes a not so brief? introduction of the history of my knowledge of Korean culture, hopefully I’ll be able to share my opinions on Kpop, Kdramas, Kvarietys, basically all things Korean(hence the name) here on this blog, and so I’ll see you the next time I see you:)
