Out front K-pop Ajjumma/Kdrama Junkie
I’m glad to see ladies of my Generation
Still Enjoy Great Music from Good looking Guys lol
AfterNoona ARMY Podcast Excels!
I’m a comparatively new ARMY, less than 1 year. I’ve been listening the various BTS-centered podcasts including AfterNoona Army. This pod is fun, funny, thoughtful, but the last 2: Episodes: Aug. 28 & Sept. 6, 2023, have sealed the deal for me.
Hosts Becky & Lia speak out about decisions V & RM have made which seem in dissonance with the parasocial relationship with ARMY they have worked so hard to build.
I’m Grandma ARMY. I LOVE my Boys, All SEVEN. (JK & V bias), but they are each Human, and make mistakes, are imperfect. As are we all.
That this pod is honest enough to raise these concerns, (which I agree with), openly, well, my respect is won. Well done.
Great for fans!
Such a great pod for fans young and old. Really enjoy listening, especially during this hiatus time!
