How to avoid K-pop blogger burnout:

maddieloveskpop:

Realize that the typhoon of words being generated about K-pop by Western media post-“Gangnam Style” is all the same narrative (“the rise of…” “the secrets behind…”) and is therefore not rendering you irrelevant.

Find the other stories you know.

And now that everyone has caught up with the backstory, tell them.

Basically why I continue to stay true to my perspective about K-Pop.

Anonymous asked: have you listened to the KPOP For Lovers mix by killthedjs? I find it very pleasant to listen to, and a little surprising. it's on soundcloud if you search "killthedjsnyc"

Pretty cool mix, but there’s not enough K-Pop music not made by Big Bang :\

Currently DJing in ‘McRoth’s K-Pop House Party’, Come Hang Out

Anonymous asked: what k-pop websites do you think offer news in a generally neutral and unbiased format? thanks!

Koreaboo is a decent place to find K-Pop news. MTVK doesn’t feature as much news as most sites, but it’s a pretty chill place on the whole. You might also find http://www.reddit.com/r/kpop to be helpful.

The rules:

Blog every day in April.

Commitment is key to seeing this thing through. So if you sign up to make your BED in April, then try your best to do it for the full 30 days. These topics are random as hell, so they don’t really require long ass responses. And the idea of accomplishing something like blogging once a day should be a rewarding challenge in and of itself. Or at least it is for me.

Just remember to have fun (!!), and share your blogs! The fun is in seeing what other people come up with for these things (especially for such a lulzy list as this one).

So, go ahead and spread this BEDA around if you’d like. You will be able to find my BEDA posts on my blog (here), and on tumblr.

Now … get to werq!
