    • Society & Culture

Correction: We incorrectly mentioned Girls Generation in Korean slang is SNSD, however that is not slang and is the abbreviated format of their name in Korean which is 소녀시대 (Romanized: Sonyeo Sidae)  We apologize for this error.

With this year being the final year of the 2 Brownish Girls podcast, we've decided to also discuss topics we're interested in that's linked to our community. Talica is joined by her brother Mo and friends of the podcast, sisters Allua and Lili to discuss one of their favourite topics ever - K-pop, specifically discussing the correlation between Korean pop music and Pacific Islanders, with a lot of our community being K-pop stans and also famous Pasifika dance choreographers such as Parris Goebel who have worked with Big Bang, 2NE1, CL and Taeyang and Sienna Lalau who has worked with BTS.  We discuss the positive impact K-pop has had in our lives, our earliest memories of it, our favourite groups and choreography and also if we were idols, which agency would we sign with. Join us for this fun filled K-pop enthusiast episode!
