For lack of a better phrase, Kpop is a big influence on our desire. Whether it is a momentary daydream or some full-fledged fan fiction. The effort and craft these idols and their companies exhibit influence the way we feel, see, and hear them. Give them more skinship, they say and they will pay! Throw in a little queer love and they will follow and tweet and stan. Not everything is a tactic at first but once it makes money for th...

Although it should be a time of excitement and joy, it often tu...

This week we dive deeper into introducing Kpop fans to KHip Hop. Korean Hip Hop and Rap is a big world, and definitely viewed or handled much differently from KPop. Some prominent KHip Hop artist actually started their careers in a KPop group. We discuss former and current idols that are currently KHip Hop artists who are making or made big waves during and after their time in a KPop group. Many of them paved the way for what Kore...

Where they cross the line from being a fan and start to interfere in the idols' personal life. Join us while we dive into the world of idol dating and...

So our last podcast was back in July, early July, and we just packed up and left. Not to leave this behind, but we actually traveled. When we came back, we discussed changes and looked into what Konnect'd need to do to drive our mission and vision for Konnect'd forward. Soon after, we started planning for our first live event, and merchandise and other content related to Konnect'd divisions. The podcast was a weekly topic, but we s...

This week we are having our first discussion about obsession and boundaries with Kpop and fandoms in general. This discussion will focus on discussing beyond obsessive behaviors and taking possessive to a whole new level. Most fans respect or walk the line, but the weird few have extreme disregard of comfort and reality when it comes to Asian fandom participation. Sometimes the fever for Kpop can cross some pertinent invisible line...

This week we went deep. Finally, we had “the talk.” Yes, that talk. We discussed biases, bias wreckers, ultimate biases and bias groups. We came up with some definitions and revealed our biases. It’s not a surprise that all of us are multi-fandom but the results of why our biases are our biases may shock you. This is our most personal conversation about our relationship with k-pop. We also announced that weekly releases are going t...

This week we decided to do a minipod. We talk about Jay Park in honor of his birthday in April. This particular podcast is explicit, but hilarious nonetheless. We explore his music and in particular how Sam and Thandi got to know Jay Park by sharing their favorite songs and the songs that introduced them to him. This podcast could have gone for hours, so we tried to have some restraint. Maybe next year they will do a part 2.
