[MV] CHUNG HA - I'm Ready

HELL YES. DIRECTLY INTO MY VEINS. Had this looping on repeat yesterday when it dropped. Everything I wanted and more. Just a fucking killer performance-focused MV all around. Chungha being a queen doing queen things. Corps dancers killing it. I was cool with 'Eenie Meenie', but this feels more quintessentially her and it's goddamn iconic.

[MV] j-hope (with Gaeko, Yoon Mi Rae) - NEURON

So good! Love Tasha and Gaeko on this. Hobi's whole HOPE ON THE STREET album he released to go with his dance documentary is really awesome. If you liked his Hope World album I'd highly recommend it. Nice collabs in there.

[MONTHLY] Favorites for FEBRUARY 2024

Well dang! Really liked February. Lots of good stuff. IU, Moonbyul, RESCENE, Wooseok, and TWICE could all be up here.

Went with three top picks for the month. BIBI's 'Bam Yang Gang' was an instant delight and I'm glad to see it getting some traction in Korea. That Kiha touch. I also loved the feel of TRI.BE's 'Diamond', which sadly may end up being one of Shinsadong Tiger's last releases, but it's a goodie. And finally this slightly off the beaten path duet with LimJi and LONE. 'Someday' falls into that category of R&B coffee shop vibes, but with some nice energy and pick-me-up to it. Kinda the same realm as SoYou/Junggigo 'Some' or KISUM/Jooyoung 'You & Me'. Solid.

So happy to see Chungha back. This one isn't super my jam, but I like parts of it a lot. The teaser we got for 'I'm Ready' is more my thing and more iconically her in style. Dunno if we're getting a full version eventually.
