A bunch of heavy hitters over the past week or so, and I’ve been seeing a bunch of rather ironic fandom arguments over whose songs are more mid than the …

Guno — a Taiwanese former YG Entertainment trainee, former Produce X 101 contestant, and current member of J-pop group BUGVEL (come on with that name, man) — recently spoke to …

In a sad way, an Mnet survival show treating contestants like disposable objects to be used for ratings is basically expected nowadays. And so it’ll come as no surprise to …

Episode 9 starts right where we left off, right after the eliminations of Episode 7. As the newly freed idols shuffle backstage, they receive flowers and letters from... themselves.
