I'm embarrassed to admit that I started writing this post over two years ago, when I made my first K-Pop friend beyond my own daughters. I only had a paragraph written up until this morning, and it's just as well, as I have found such an awesome tribe over the time since Sept 2018! https://momthek.com/finding-your-people-in-k-pop/

Here's a post I started last week and actually finished in a timely manner. The pressure to roll a few posts out before 11/19 is helping for sure. This one's kind of sad, and I think we can all relate. https://momthek.com/2020-in-k-pop-a-bittersweet-symphony/

Hey what do you know, I actually finished a blog post this week! I'm gonna buckle down and try and finish several more before my 3 yr "kpop birthday" which is coming up this week. Something about milestones makes me reflect and realize how lazy I've been all through quarantine. Speaking of milestones, a recent big one for Ateez prompted me to write this post. The title is paraphrased from that scene at the end of the movie Swingers where Vince Vaughn realizes his best friend has grown up. https://momthek.com/my-little-babies-all-growns-up/

It's D-Day for DKB's comeback!! We've also been given a fandom name today, so I'm officially a BESTIE!!! I love it!! It's not the name I wished for (I tried to summon the fandom name Vision, 'cause you know, it's kind of cool sounding for a group called Dark Brown Eyes) but Bestie is great too, I'm happy to be a Bestie! My love for DKB inspired me to write about how fast I stanned them and groups in general, so please check it out in my latest blog post. I'd love to hear how fast YOU stanned the groups you love, and whether you agree with my theory! https://momthek.com/the-fastest-stan-in-the-west/
