This is a strange era for K-pop… at least when it comes to my own experience. On one hand, there are a handful of acts I feel more invested in than ever, which is the feeling everyone wants as a fan. In some ways, I’m more interested in K-pop than I have been in awhile, but this interest is pretty funneled into the acts I follow. If I zoom out to the industry on a larger scale, the overall song quality is definitely lacking this year and even the standouts don’t necessarily feel like future classics. For this mid-year countdown,…

This global group was formed on SBS series Universe League and their awkward acronym stands for “All-Time Hall Of Famer.” Time will tell if that moniker goes on to be self-fulfilling, but debut track Rendezvous (그곳에서 다시 만나기로 해) gets them off to a strong start. This one’s for the old-school 2nd/3rd generation K-pop fans who miss 3+ minute, melodically-driven songs with a heavy dose of idol angst.…

As 2025 kicked off, BABYMONSTER were still promoting their first album with a series of follow-up tracks. A second album has been promised for this fall (though take that with a grain of salt given YG Entertainment’s track record) and the summer-themed Hot Sauce acts as its opening salvo, released digitally to kick off the month of July. The song takes its cues from 80’s hip-hop and the visual presentation of Seo Taiji & Boys’ early-90’s debut era. These are two touchstones I absolutely love, so Hot Sauce should work better for me than it does. Its bouncy, minimalist beat…
