To hear their criticism NO please Spare all the K-pop groups Criticism is not for me but if it is for you then you do you But them criticizing Stray kids is just not for me Also K-pop music is so good and they are all songs Criticizing the people when they haven’t even met the group THEY SAY THEIR SONGS ARE TRASH I DON’T LIKE THIS PODCAST

this podcast and live show has been my quarantine savior. stephen and all of the callers are hilarious and have a good rapport with each other, and they all have very distinct likes and dislikes, so it’s great hearing everybody’s opinions. i enjoy the fact that there’s almost always someone who dislikes a song or has some critique of it; in the world of k-pop stans, it feels like there’s often a lot of blindly stanning songs by artists you love or bashing songs by artists you hate without thinking about the actual song itself. the callers often talk about the backing track, producers, vocals, performance, and it’s thrilling to hear everyone’s opinions. the live show is such a treat, I look forward to it every week. the chat always has a laugh, and it’s so great to hear so many varied opinions and gain insight into parts of k-pop you might not be as familiar with. i highly recommend joining the discord for tons of content and conversations throughout the week. the community is super loving and tight-knit but easy to fit in with, and has been such a warm place for me since we can’t really see friends and extended family often. shoutout to any of the regular callers, if you read this, y’all are the best. i can’t properly express my appreciation for you, but I hope you understand how wonderful all of you are.

If you’re looking for one podcast that will give you a thorough review of nearly every headliner song coming out of K-Pop, this is the one for you. The opinions are generally fair but tend toward harsh. My advice is to check the timestamps in the description, and if you see a song or group you really like, save yourself the frustration and *skip it.* Even songs they like get a thorough critique, so don’t come here looking for validation of your faves. Obviously, the hosts share personal opinions and impressions. So they’re not always right. Sometimes they praise bad songs, and sometimes they’re needlessly critical. But if you’re going to get upset by that, this is not the podcast for you. Audio quality is mediocre.

Streaming every Sunday now on Twitch! The show/podcast is better than ever. Josh may not be here to co-host anymore, but we have many smart and funny listeners calling in instead. The show is better than ever, and I’ve been subscribed since like 2014!

I listen to them all the time and it’s pretty interesting to see there opinions on songs and Kpop in general. Keep it up! Fighting! 🤟🏻

The hosts are so good! It’s like having a conversation with two good friends. Love it when Stephen’s dog joins in as cohost. Great discussion and I really enjoy their commentary on the songs. My favorite podcast format is when they keep their choices a secret until the recording of the episode. Wish you two would record more often!

This podcast is great. I do wish they uploaded more often. I check every week to see if they’ve uploaded a new episode. With that being said, I appreciate how honest their song reviews are. Some reactors shy away from criticism of songs but these two never hold back.

This has been one of the best kpop podcast out there. I have a top 3 favorite and these guys lead the pack. Funny witty and honest. Hope they come back soon!

This is my very first time listening to these guys, and honestly as a teenage kpop fan, I don’t agree with their opinions, especially about bands like ATEEZ and SEVENTEEN. And I didn’t really come to have my favorite bands bashed at. But I get it, everyone’s a critic. Buuut... at the same time it’s refreshing to listen to and funny. So I’ll continue to listen to more of their podcasts, cuz I feel like I might agree with some of their opinions if I continue to do so. So keep doing you I guess!

I started listening to these guys a couple of days ago, but as I progressed into more episodes I got tired of the “ehh.. she doesn’t really look good like this” or “this was a terrible bside” many opinions but then again this is their podcast and I definitely didn’t come for that but y’all do you

This show is really good and the hosts are funny. I hope this show gets more listeners

Thank you Stephen and Josh for your hard work each podcast! I enjoy listening to you guys and look forward to each new episode. It has been two years since I started listening and I have enjoyed each episode. For me, I feel like they offer a lot more than other Kpop podcasts, because they review not only the band, but also the producers and the even the music itself. It has helped me to discover new music and I am really into Khiphop now, because of your recommendations. Thank you for all your hardwork! :)

I've been listening to this podcast for almost a year now and have been meaning to write a review for them but just never got around to it. After catching up on their latest episodes after they took a small break to return home to America, I felt I owed it to Stephen and Josh to welcome them back home with a review. I should preface this review by stating that I am in fact a hardcore ARMY (BTS fan for those who might still, somehow, be unaware...) and the first episode I listened to was when Stephen and Josh gave their thoughts on BTS's song Spring Day. Needless to say I wasn't at all happy with the things they said about my favorite group's song but I found their comments on the other songs in that episode interesting and kind of funny. So I became curious as to what their opinions would be on other BTS songs, as well as some of my other favorite groups/songs. Now not only have I listened to every episode they released last year in 2017 but have even started to go back to listen to the episodes they released in the years before. Something about the way they apporach their reviews of these kpop songs is fun, interesting and often times really hilarious. And listening to their mostly unbiased opinions on groups that I can be a bit biased towards, has in fact helped me to be a bit less biased about the music releases that some of my faves have put out recently. For example, I mostly agreed with their opinion on BTS's latest comeback song DNA. It was definitely NOT their strongest title track and left me a bit wanting as far as a comeback from the group I love the most. (However I am more of a fan of BTS whole discography so what I found lacking in the title track the rest of the Love Yourself: Her album made up for that. One of the best albums of last year in my opinion.) Like many others in the Kpop community I have no one in my life to talk to about my opinions on new kpop songs so it's nice listening to Stephen and Josh chat about these songs in a way that makes me feel apart of the conversation. They are also good at recommending songs that I know I would have never discovered on my own. There's several songs, including my favorite girl group song from last year, that I would have never known about if it wasn't for these two (It was Deep Blue Eyes by Girls Next Door in case anyone's wondering...) and for that I sincerly want to thank them. I really enjoy their Big Names No Gains section and it's definitely the thing that drew me into their podcast the most. Even though I occasionally have to listen to them hate on songs or groups that I love, I appreciate hearing why they didn't like it or what in particular turned them off about that song. So even though there were times where I wanted to scream at them for not understaning why the song they hated was a BOP, I did find that this past year I agreed more than I disagreed when it came to songs released by bigger names in Kpop. Now for the slight negatives with this podcast. While Stephen and Josh do remain mostly unbiased in regards to liking songs regardless of who released it, they also tend to have similar tastes in music which means they are either both recommending the same songs or songs that sound very similar week after week. I know that its mostly becasue they weren't satisfied with A LOT of the songs released recently (believe me, me too) but I do wish they had another voice in their conversations that could lend a COMPLETELY DIFFERENT OPINION to the ones they are giving. The Kpop Round Tables they've done with other podcasts are the best example of this so I hope they continue with that. But I would like to suggest they think about recuiting someone else more permanently to fill that role. It would definitely "spice up" their podcast a bit. Also I find that sometimes they tend to....well overanalyze music videos. Especially the ones they don't like. For example, I was laughing my head off over their complaints about BTS's Mic Drop video. It was just a video that was made mostly as a surprise gift for ARMY during BTS busy AF schedule and released with no promo whatsoever. Most of us took it at face value as a video that just showed off their choreo (which we'd already seen) with a remixed version of the song plus some cool editing and effects. No one was expecting high class storytelling or super intense visuals for this release. But the way Stephen and Josh went off about it you would have thought they watched it over 200 times in order to complain about each detail that unsatisfied them. All I'm saying is sometimes an MV is just an MV and its totally fine if you dont like it. Just maybe next time, don't spend 20 mins talking about everything you didn't like? (Btw that wasn't the first time they had done it and I find it brings the mood of the episode down a bit even if I do COMPLETELY agree with them lol.) Despite my few complaints, week after week Stephen and Josh deliver a quality podcast that discusses the latest kpop releases as well as occansionally disscusing kpop related news (look mostly to their After Shows for that) in a super entertaining way. No other Kpop related podcast (and I've listened to several) keeps me coming back for more the way these guys do. I highly recommend this podcast to anyone interested in learning more about kpop and finding new music. I will definitely be continuing to listen in 2018 so let's all hope the kpop world blesses us with much better quallity songs this year than it did last year...especially for Stephen and Josh's sake lol. ~J P.S. Sorry this review was a bit long, it was long overdue and I guess I had a lot of thoughts built up over the past year.

It’s really refreshing having people bash... I mean criticize your favorite songs. It’s also really refreshing when you finally agree with Josh and Stephen. Keep up the good work and song bashing. I always eagerly await the next podcast. BTW thank you for finally talking about Loona again.

My friends always say that they have the best podcast recommendations. Yours was something I found on my own and I genuinely treasure it!!!!! I’m able to learn so much more about K pop then I ever thought I would. While I don’t always agree With what you say because I am always a sucker for a BTS song, I love all your thoughts on music, MVs, and more! Freakin love this! If you ever need a buddy to comment on the music, let me know. I am a great person for opinions. At least my friend say so. Sarah

I love this podcast! I don’t always agree with their opinions on songs, but I respect the insightful commentary and reasoning which is always delivered in a witty way. It’s nice to listen to a podcast about KPop that isn’t a bunch of fan-girling nonsense. (don’t let me wrong, I’m a fan girl!) But I’m also a musician, so listening to a good song critique is my jam! Keep it up guys!! You rock! I enjoy every episode even when we aren’t on the same side of an argument. Ha!

Good sirs of TWIK, I have been listening to you guys for a while now (Can’t recall how long), but after your mini hiatus from moving and vacation I realized how much I’m missing it. I tried listening to other podcasts, and granted there are some decent ones, but you guys are hands down my favorite. You guys have great knowledge of kpop producers/composers that actually broadened my library. Love your opinions especially when it comes down to Big Name, No Game. Keepin’ it real with reasons. So kindly keep doing it as long as you can. PS: Hellevator by Stray Kids was written by three of the members (or trainee). With the help of some senior composer It was mentioned in the actual show.

One of the longest running all english korean entertainment podcasts, the hosts of TWIK are kpop veterans who, after living and teaching in korea, review kpop new and old while providing insight into what is successful in the primary market. They admit to minimal musical training and listen to full albums rarely, so a complete review of any and all artists should not be expected. But do expect honest reviews and often alternative opinions.**** Side shows include: The “Kpop Roundtable” which brings on guest hosts that provide an alternate and/or informed perspective. And the “After Show Show” which includes reviews of prominent Kpop producers, random non-kpop related topics and the “Retrospective” which provides an evaluation of a group or solo artist's entire career after they disband or are put on long term hiatus. ****For example they reviewed negatively the song “Power” by Exo labeling it a step back for the group compared to releses like "growl". However as a Exo fan I enjoyed “power” because of its corny fun energy that is reminiscent of earlier b-sides like “run” and “365”. While I disagreed with their negative review of the song, I appreciate their alternate opinions. If you are an extremely biased person, this might not be the show for you. (￣ｰ￣)

They're not afraid of giving their opinions on the music as they see it - a lot of 'reactors' and podcasters will hold back any negative criticism to avoid offending their fans. While their tastes like boy group vs girl group do affect their view of songs, they acknowledge it and still back up their opinions well. Not to mention, their personalities are just really fun! <3

I've been listening to you all for awhile and have been too lazy to write a review until now. After listening to Stephen talk about the journey the podcast took on Kpop Hot Pot, I really wanted to leave a review to say we're not all robots. I always appreciate your opinions and love hearing about new artists from you all. I love your negativity. Thanks for keeping me entertained during my car rides!

I always listen to you guys whenever an episode comes out; although I've only recently started listening to you Kpop (I've only been listening for about a year and a half) it's been great getting to know some artists I would never hear just looking at mainstream music videos. I had been looking for a podcast that made music recconmendations and provided a bunch of songs to listen to; and this podcast is perfect! You guys really brighten my week and I usually always download a couple of the songs discussed,like this week I actually really loved Hyorin and Kisum's release (omg it's such a good song I can't) I totally recconmend this podcast to anyone who is new to Kpop, because there is so much more to discover about this wonderful genre of music. Thank you guys!

Listening to their podcast is like sitting in on a conversation about Kpop that can't be had with people not familar with music. The guys are funny, honest, critical and make effort to introduce less known artists as well as popular ones. Sometimes they ramble a bit or a little cringy (when they oogle a cute idol), despite those moments the podcast is worth listening. Numerous gems, otherwise not discovered on my own, are in my playlist because of them. Good job guys!

Yo! I wrote an itunes review a few weeks ago, but apparently it did not get recorded. Nevertheless, I like this podcast so much that I am more than willing to write another one. One of the main reasons I enjoy this podcast is because it helps me discover some lesser known kpop artists as I continue my journey out of the fangirl cave. I think it’s important for fans to challenge their biases and strive to be more discerning and informed listeners and the discussions presented in TWIK have definitely done that for me. I also really like that Stephen and Josh sometimes have dissimilar tastes in music as it creates a good variety of songs in the lineup. Quite often I find at least one song or artist in each episode that piques my interest. Although I sometimes do not agree with their song choices or opinions, the humor is on point and keeps me coming back for more. All in all, TWIK is thoughtful, funny, informative, and a little bit sexy. I think even non-kpop people would enjoy this podcast! Keep up the good work, guys and thank you :)

Big fan of the podcast. Right now it's kinda negative but that's 100% reflective of the disappointing music put out this year. As a male in his late 20's it's nice to have someone else who likes K-pop that doesn't go down the fandom/staning black holes that make fans loose perspective of their music (sorry Twice fans but Signal sucked). I've found so many new bands and songs (2015 Top 10 podcast re-introduced me to K-I-S-UM who I was sleeping on post Unpretty Rapstar). Do I agree with these two on everything? Uhm no. But if I wanted to only have my own thoughts repeated back to me I'd just talk out loud. They give reasons for why they feel the way they do (love the Big Name No Game section although all of K-Pop is basically there this year) and most of the time I can at a minimum see where they are coming from. Good podcast, give it a chance. If you think it's too negative go listen to old podcasts pre-2017.

Horrible.

Love listening to this popcast. I like their unbias opions and good and bad critiques to the songs and MVs they review. One of the best things with this podcast is they always mention songs I would have never heard before and have now fallen in love with like Rollin by Brave Girls, Hwi Hwi by Laboum, Really Really by Winner and Highlight by Seventeen. Also love how they dont have a filter. I love SM so I pray when all the big groups start coming out with music these guys love the music.

We disagree a lot about songs (I like GFriend Fingertip 🙃) but it's always fun to listen to you guys and love being introduced to new songs through you guys (Oohyo Pizza is my jam) it's refreshing to hear people talk about Kpop without the blindness that comes from fandom. And I 100% agree that if you like something you SHOULD critique it. I also LOVE girlgroups so thanks for always highlighting them. Thanks y'all!

I really like this podcast because you guys just like good music and are unbiasest even to your favs. I also apprciate that you guys aren't some crazy fanboys just priasing your favorite group. I also appriacate that you guys love girl groups just as much as me because most kpop recators and podcasters are more about boy groups, BUT I do wish you guys talked about cute girl groups more like apink, cosmic girls, and lovelyz (some of my favs). Also I think you guys would really like the girl group laboum if you listened to them. ok! looking forward to more rambling :)

I will be honest, I'm a new fan and have only listened to about 3 to 5 of these podcasts. I will say right off the bat that the commentary and opinions are firm, well placed and deserving. I find that the commentary of Steven and Josh are planted and based off good opinions of their own choosing. The only beef I will address(as well as they have addressed in a few podcasts) is that the negativity is at a high it seems. I would like if they did focus more on how they enjoyed certain videos or songs instead of how they didn't enjoy them(and/or what made them less than 100%) No song can be 110% perfect and thinking to believe so will result in failure. All in all I find this podcast to be a very solid choice if you enjoy kpop and would like to hear some new music. 5 stars out of 5

TWiKP introduces me to artists I probably would have regularly ignored. The hosts have great chemistry and know what they are talking about (even if I mostly disagree with them!) Definitely worth your time/downloads if you love kpop or are interested in hearing about new groups.

Josh and Stephen crank out a consistently good podcast that'll keep you up to date with what's new in the KPop world. I've tried just about every other podcast and got sick of them all pretty quickly, but these two dudes do it just about right. I give it 4 stars instead of 5 because they don't talk much about "alternative" mainstream KPop (one happy recent exception: Dream of Circle by Subin) or B-sides (rather than focus on your disappointment in "Knock Knock", why not spend time on "Next Page" which is a pretty neat lil B-side on the same album?). Generally, though, good stuff! Keep it up, dudes!

I’ve been a bad fan, I’ve listened to these guys for about two years now and never reviewed. I went way back to one of Josh's first few eps and everything. I’ll start by giving a shout out to the patreon fans who do what I can’t afford to do. Thanks guys, the audio has gotten so much better because of your donations! As a girl, I don’t always agree with these two, but it’s nice to hear honest unbiased opinions. I personally don’t by or support songs that are crap-tastic because it’s from one of my top group, so thanks guys for keeping it real. These guys are the only reason I have some of the songs I have, and I hope to discover more unknown songs with them. The swearing doesn’t bother me, but I might be bias because some of the songs that got them into kpop got me into it as well. BTW I do recognize that old Rolling song from the main segment of ep 110, and I’m under 25, I sang it to everyone in the house and no one else remembered it, seriously.

This podcast has become a staple of my listening lately - I appreciate the humor and the candor; it's rare to find kpop podcasts where opinions are balanced while still being based on personal preference. I realize that some people believe there is need to justify an opinion with either technical knowledge or nonsensical fandom arguments but, having been thoroughly schooled and approaching my prime adult years, I really appreciate that this podcast avoids both! Hooray! Josh and Stephen have made some good recommendations in the podcasts I have heard, and others recommendations I'm kinda "meh" on - which is a good approximation of my entire experience of kpop. Bonus: the tangents are relevant and don't devolve into gossip. And I enjoy the swearing. And crass humor. Seriously, I laugh out loud a lot - thanks for that guys!

Even though I don't agree with you two sometimes, i still enjoy the podcast and hearing you both discuss. It's fun so thank you!

Typically unbiased and very thoughtful about the songs they choose to give insight on. I always look forward to hearing what they have to say about songs that come out. :)

I finally had to review this podcast- even though I've never done so for any podcast before. Even though there are podcasts I like "better" (sorry guys!!), I still find myself double and triple checking for the next upload from Josh and Steven each week, which I rarely do for any of my podcasts. I'm not sure why I like it so much.... The guys are honest and blunt in their assessments and back their thoughts up with cogent arguments, which I like as opposed to blind bias love. Any Kpop controversy I hear about makes me excited to hear their thoughts, and I've even gone back in time to hear their opinions on things like SNSD's Jessica and Sulli leaving f(X). While Steven does interrupt Josh a lot and sometimes seems like he doesn't really respect his opinion, I do feel as though the guys do like one another. As a female listener, some of the sexual jokes and innuendos are eye-roll inducing but since I follow mostly girl groups (Kpop boy groups "love me noona/I'm so HARD" concepts aren't appealing so....) this podcast does it for me. I also appreciate hearing about new artists and learning about groups I might have overlooked simply bc they aren't "Big 3". Thanks guys! Love from Seattle and this Jay Park/"SO-Once"/BTS fan!

I don't even like K-Pop, but I love this podcast

The show is consistently fun to listen to with the great cast of Stephen and Josh. The more I listen, the more I feel like these two guys are my friends and just like myself. I find relating to them in many ways especially being uncle fans and having dick punching moments while watching certain members of girl groups. As an American, I love hearing their unique perspective of two guys from the US who have chosen to live in Korean teaching kids. Where else are you going to get this? They both have opened me up to new kpop music I would have never found on my own. I don't have many friends who listen to kpop so hearing their views and opinions on music is enlightening and much appreicated. Great job gentlemen. We chingus for life.

I've been listening to this podcast for a while now, and I do enjoy the entertaining banter between the two hosts. They have good knowledge about the K-Pop industry and they try their best to do analysis on the songs and music videos they discuss; however, they lack adequate understanding of songwriting, musical genres, music production, musicianship, vocal techniques, cinematography, film production, etc., so often they struggle with their limited music and filmmaking-related vocabulary, and their comments tend to lack authoritative insight. It can be frustrating sometimes, but if I try to just listen with the mindset of hearing two buddies shooting the breeze over some beer about K-Pop, it's entertaining enough that I keep it on my subscription list. If you're looking for more serious K-Pop analysis/commentary, there's MRJKPOP's professional analysis/review on Youtube, as well as the K-Pop Vocal Analysis website. There are also two new podcasts have more insightful discussions about K-Pop music (K-Pop Unmuted and The Kpop Show), and they bring to the table the kind of serious music critique that Stephen and Josh aren't equipped for. But if you want to just be entertained while learning some interesting facts about the K-Pop groups and idols and industry happenings, this is a good podcast for that.

This is more of a random rant/opinion podcast. If you just want to hear a weekly news show reading out Kpop related stuff, this is somewhat like that, but with more personal commentary thrown in. It's a good way to hear about general Kpop happenings. But what makes this a three star show is related to the technical limitations as well as show hosts delivery. What I mean by this is that more often than not you can't really understand what they are saying for at least two reasons. 1 - the hosts volume fluctuates so much it's frustrating to find a good volume that is loud enough during the faint volume moments without blowing out your speakers during the high volume transients. If they could speak in a consistent tone at a fixed distance this would greatly help. 2 - the hosts mumble a lot. This doesn't help issue #1 at all. It's often very hard to hear what they are saying due to how they mumble their thoughts most of the time. They speak too fast and often in such a way it's more like two friends hanging out rather than a show. Ok, this is great if that's all you want. But as a show this lacks polish and makes it hard on the listener. 3 - intro and outro music is way loud. Be prepared for it. A common mistake amongst podcast producers though. Maybe I'm being too critical but listen to an episode and see for yourself if you will like it.

It's hard to find people to talk about kpop with, but believe it or not, there's a tight-knit community of college people in Alaska that are really into it. Unfortunately me, they are very into fangirling. Too many other podcasts ignore the music and obsess over the people. Josh and Stephen provide a funny and insightful view into what's happening in the Korean pop music scene, talking about the people sometimes but mostly focused on the music. Fair warning: I have yet to agree with any of their opinions on a big name group, but I still tune in every week.

I really enjoy This Week in Kpop, it gives me the chance to discover new songs and I really enjoy their conversations. It is nice to hear people review songs and introduce new songs from less know artists so I wait for this podcast each week/two weeks to see what new music came out. beruktawit

Great way to branch out and hear lots of different artists. I like that they're unbiased, even if I don't always agree with what they say, I like that they aren't just sucking up to fandoms. Keep up the good work, boys!

I love these guys, Stephen watches videos and listens to stuff just so he can inform us, he said it himself, if he wasn't doing a podcast, he wouldn't watch or listen to a lot of the stuff he does( he's doin it 4 us) (Josh does things 2, just don't have anything fresh on my mind other than HELLOOO)*reminds me of Mrs.Doubtfire...lol Not everyone will agree with them, but they give their honest opinion, at times saying how they are sad about what one of their fav groups put out, they don't just blindly love someone because the liked them b4. They've answered ever question I asked in a pretty timely manner, have introduced me to a number of groups I may have never found on my own. I don't agree with everything they say, but more often then not it seems like we r on the same page...they do cover boy groups, but....like me they prefer pretty girls over pretty guys, they are part of my Sunday sit

Keep up the awesome work guys, this podcast is the best thing I've discovered & since my Kpop friends are limited to zero in my life. I really enjoy listening to you guys and feel I'm in an actual conversation with people who understand me. Also great idea about adding the after-show, I really enjoy when the conversation goes off topic and it's just you two talking about life in Korea. Lots of love and support from San Diego,Ca ❤️❤️❤️❤️✌🏻️

Stephen is very very vulgar. I do enjoy Josh's input but no thank. Stephen ruins it.

Living in a place where people only know what Kpop is through Buzzfeed, I am so happy that I have found this podcast. I have discovered many new Kpop songs through here. I also get to hear tidbits of what people think of my favorite songs. The podcasts are always funny and tangenty. I hope they continue to hunor me with their talks of rifts and bass lines.

Living in Korea, I've been looking for a decent KPop podcast for awhile. Took some time to find this one, but so far it easily the most cohesive and intelligent I have come across. Everyone has biases, but the hosts are really upfront about theirs and still seem able to give objective opinions and reviews about the various new releases. In the latest episode they did a great job of breaking down the AoA history scandal, which as a non-Korean foreigner I was having a lot of trouble understanding. Keep up the great work!

I can't wait until you release these podcasts because it is interesting to hear a variety of songs and a different take on them from my own. I also would finally listen to songs I wouldn't look up as well as being introduced to new artists. I especially love your sense of humor. I always find myself laughing during your podcast :D All in all I enjoy the hour or two we spend together.

Warning - probably a longer than normal review... Having been a Kpop fan for almost 10 years and looking for a Kpop podcast to listen to on my long commutes, I found this one when searching on itunes. I am finally leaving a review after hearing the latest podcast about future plans. Pros: - Stephen and Josh have constrasting personalities, which makes for a more enjoyable podcast. Their different personalities play off of each other making the whole podcast more of a conversational tone. I have heard some other podcasts, and unlike those these guys do not sound fake or trying to be too rehearsed. - I like that they have different opinions to provide more perspectives. I don't always agree with what they say, but overall it's great to hear from other Kpop fans that actually admit to what they like about songs. The way they describe songs also is very relatable to me. - Their discussions on different current Kpop topics going on in the media is also enjoyable as well since it's good to get a perspective from a fan on audio rather than having to read an article online. - The song recommendations have been great for me as I don't always branch out of my "popish" bias comfort zone of songs. They have exposed me to other songs that I probably otherwise would not even try to listen to. - Definitely HIGHLY recommend this podcast if someone wants to be kept up to date on the newest songs but doesn't have a whole lot of time (you can keep up while driving!). Cons: - They are definitely more girl group biased, but they at least admit that. What I hope to see more of: - I like that they do have news segments and have discussed controversies, but I guess I would liek to see more Kpop news topics and discussions on those current topics. However, I understand if this is tough to do with a limited amount of time on podcasts. - More guy groups? But I understand that this one may be hard to accomodate as well. I hope they will continue this podcast and to provide more discussions on current topics and artists. I am definitely a fan who falls into the "minority" category that they referenced of a Kpop fan who enjoys listening to actual discussions on Kpop related topics. They help to make my commutes more enjoyable when they post episodes, and it helps me to keep informed on the newest songs when I don't always have time to keep up with the latest news. Overall great work, and I hope continue to listen as long as possible.
