The year of 2018 had many big moments, both historical and shocking! I’ve compiled a list of events that I thought were important, alarming and game-changing within the HallyU community. Here they are in no particular order.
"2018’s Most Groundbreaking And Shocking Moments In K-Pop"Category: MUSIC
Global superstars Gallant and MONSTA X 몬스타엑스 come together for a VIKI original documentary! I saw the below image of MONSTA X 몬스타엑스 and Gallant and knew that something was brewing!
"Gallant and MONSTA X Come Together In A Music Documentary"24K’s 투포케이의 European tour is over! Were you there, or did you miss out? 24K put on an amazing show! Every. Single. Time!
"24K ‘Still With 24U’: 2018 World Tour In Paris – The Rundown"The boys are back, and they never fail to disappoint! 24K 투포케이 will take charge of 7 European cities from 3rd-15th August, and it’s time to get up-close and personal in an intimate fan sign and concert!
"24K is ‘Still with 24U’ in their 2018 World Tour!"I actually found out a few days ago, and silly me forgot to share! Berlin stand up! The Music Bank World Tour is hitting German soil!
"Music Bank Is Coming To Europe This September!"It’s 2018, and I am reporting about a “sexy” and perhaps “inappropriate” music video. Deemed inappropriate in Korea and other countries in the Far East, but most definitely not for us in the west. Customs and social norms fluctuate and differ across all continents, cultures, and religions of course. But is a woman embracing her sexuality and womanly figure so bad?
"South Korea’s Societal Borders Are Shaking: Featuring Jessi"There are many talented Korean-American and Asian-American stars that dropped everything, and left everything and everyone they know, to go and live their dream in Korea. If that’s not striving for the American dream, then I don’t know what is! Of course everyone’s idea of it is different, and your individual “American dream” is personal to you. Yet these stars have worked hard, made their mark and are known internationally on an extremely large scale.
"4th July Special: 10 Asian American Stars Who Have Earned Their Stripes!"If you haven’t been blessed by the sight and sounds of the multifaceted septet, then I don’t know where you’ve been for the past 3 years! MONSTA X몬스타엑스 landed on British soil last weekend (Sunday 17th June), and took the Eventim Apollo by storm! Having attended their first world tour last year, in Paris, I didn’t think that their last show could be topped. But boy was I wrong!
"East Meets West In Musical Matrimony: MONSTA X 2nd World Tour – London"If you weren’t at the K-Music showcase last Thursday, then you missed out! A fruitful display of musical performances laced my ears, as Gonne Choi, Billy Carter and 3rd Line Butterfly ignited the RichMix stage. Evidently, they are three very different bands, but I soon started to see their similarities.
"The K-Music Showcase 2018 : Highlights"Starship Entertainment’s sexy, boisterous and multi-talented male-idol group MONSTA X, are celebrating 3 years since their debut. Their popularity has increased rapidly, and with one world tour under their belt, they’re about to embark on another one at the end of this month! Behind all of the make-up, sharply tailored suits and stage outfits we have 7 men who fought against each other, and 6 other trainees, to earn their spot in the internationally successful septet.
