Watching the dramas got me into K-Pop, so now my playlist is 99% K-Pop

introduced me to some really good music
Can't agree with both of you enough on this! I have shazaamed so many songs and honestly am really enjoying listening to not just K-pop but also songs from other solo artists and bands from SK as well as Thailand, Taiwan, etc.
Although not new to K-pop (used to listen to the OGs like Psy, 2NE1, Girls Generation, etc.) and am an avid fan of BTS but have found lot more artists thanks to the shows.
The shipping thing is also new for me. I try really hard not to (not our business if they are dating IRL or just co-workers with awesome chemistry and acting skills) but it's really hard once you start going down the rabbit hole of watching their fan content.
I also love that they bring together people from all ages, cultures and continents together in communities like MDL and Reddit and Discord.
