However, I decided to turn it into a video instead because it can show so much more than just words and pictures.

So in case you haven’t noticed yet, this quarantine period has turned me into a K-pop fanboy. I’m sorry if you initially followed this blog for travel and race reviews, but this pandemic has cancelled all outdoor activities for the foreseeable future.

This specific post will be about Kpop girl groups that debuted in 2020 and have caught my attention.
