Sandeul – My Shy Boss OST (with lyrics)
Confession time: I started watching the series because of this song. Yes, tragic, I know. But I’m unrepentant – Sandeul’s glorious vocals make everything better, and the song appears frequently throughout the series at appropriate moments. It’s a gentle, lyrical… Continue reading

Joy In K-pop – A Monster Thread
This started with a Twitter thread about joy in music – I promised to provide some references in K-pop, then things went pear-shaped and it dropped off my radar. So now I’m starting the year anew and all that. I’ll… Continue reading

B1A4 – 10 Times
This is like the perfect video of the perfect holiday. The MV was released on 23rd April 2021, to celebrate the 10-year anniversary since their debut. Production is sensibly subtle – a good strong beat to keep the rhythm but… Continue reading

CNU/Sandeul – Oblique Line
This is a ‘smoky jazz club at 3:00 am’ sort of song, haunting and beautiful. Written by CNU (pronounced Shin-woo), who gave it to Sandeul for his solo album when he asked nicely (see what politeness gets you, kids?). CNU… Continue reading
