  • Doyoung Deep Dive: A Little Light And A Lot Of Heart

    Doyoung has been a kpop idol for over a decade now, and a member of both NCT 127 and NCT U for almost as long. He’s also a part of NCT subunit DoJaeJung with fellow members Jaehyun and Jungwoo, as well as the voice behind a dozen soundtracks, but he only debuted as a solo…

  • RM Deep Dive: A Trek Through Still Lifes, Wildflowers, and Lyrics Across Languages By A Kpop Stan And Her Mom

    Here are my credentials: I don’t know much about ENHYPEN, but unlike what’s usually true, I actually know more about them as people than their music.

    Here are my credentials (one more time): this is a bit of an interesting one.

  • VIXX Deep Dive #1/3: Greek Gods, Voodoo Dolls, and Horror In K-pop
