Before BTS, Stray Kids and NewJeans, there was The Kim Sisters, the original K-pop stars who toured the U.S. in the 1960s and appeared on “The Ed Sullivan Show” 22 times.
Samantha Pak wrote about them for @Joysauce, and she also curated today’s Good Life newsletter, which includes stories about the Chinese typewriter, the first Indian woman in space, and the athlete who broke basketball’s color barrier. Find all those stories and more in this @Flipboard Storyboard.
For #TuneTuesday#TheLongGoodbye ... long outros are not really a common KPop thing, however this track is a classic and has a cool dance break outro that you gotta love. And they look like such babies! :blobhaj_heart:
"At the end of the day that left us breathless / We lean on each other / We close our eyes and fall asleep comfortably / Dreaming again / In the slightly unfamiliar tomorrow / That will start over again countless times / I think we will be okay, I think it will be shining / The rainbow that connects your and my heart."
How about some Young Posse for #MusicWomenWednesday .. because it's nice to see a k-girl-group focus on hip hop, and they keep sneaking back into my playlists because their samples are all the nostalgia.
#TuneTuesday asks us to celebrate our favourite album on physical media which is an impossible choice .. I love all my very expensive KPop cardboard! 😂 :blobmeow_heart:
So, I'll just go with the first BTS comeback album I was around for. It's a gem and the art that came with it is so pretty! 💗💟
"Oh, day by day / When some things just won't go my way / It's blurry like a fog in the sky, but there are so many roads ahead / Even if the world spins the other way around / You and I are not losing our way / You and I will be walking straight / Let's go as one."
