Kpop 101

After launching this podcast, we quickly realized something—most of our friends had absolutely no idea what we were talking about. 😅 They had questions (lots of them), and honestly, we love that kind of curiosity! So, in this episode, we’re breaking down the basics of kpop and the need-to-know terminology. And if you’re already a full-fledged kpop stan? Stick around! This will be a fun refresher, and we’d love to hear what key terms we missed. We’re covering everything from what an “idol” is to kpop group dynamics, performance culture, and some of the most unique aspects of the industry—like aegyo, music shows, and the dreaded military service hiatus. Whether you're a curious newcomer or a longtime fan, this episode is your crash course into the wild world of kpop. Let’s get it! 🎤✨
