Been holding this in for months! 🌸 This started off as an idea and I thought, “WHY NOT? Why NOT invite the Nation’s Girl Group of the Philippines and show K-Pop goes beyond with P-Pop?” I’m MORE than happy this came to life. And I’m EXCITED to have PINOY talent grace KCON.

Oh! I wanted to clarify this! There was a special care package curated by me during my time as Betty Boop’s social media manger. However, the pandemic happened and things took a turn. I kept the package though. Knowing one day I’ll be meeting them in person at some point.

ITZY was my first interview in 2020. Now they're my first in 2021. Always impressed by how much they go above and beyond, @itzyofficial takes advantage of the pandemic to produce more content and polish their English skills for #NotShy . Live on @MTVNews

Yunho is Spider-Man. And no one can tell him otherwise. I will back his claim until the next life. Knew that guy was a superhero since the day he squashed a flying beetle during our shoot for tmrw three years ago. #iykyk #ATEEZinNewark #ATEEZ #ATEEZWORLDTOUR2022 #kpop

The anticipation for Nayeon’s solo grows now that it’s been revealed KENZIE and @LDNNoise are behind the lead single “POP!”. Not only that but @destinyrogers participated in composing one of two Nayeon’s self-written tracks, “All Or Nothing”. Let’s go, #IM_NAYEON !

I wanted to follow up with this and say @tiffanyyoung had me bodyroll throughout her whole show no matter the tempo. #LipsOnLipsNY was a night to remember. It was all love and good vibes throughout. It's been awhile since I've been to a show that gave me that feeling.

#LE_SSERAFIM was my dream collaboration for tmrw this year. It happened. And it's here. Despite YUNJIN being unable to join the shoot due to COVID, she did join the interview. This is perhaps one of the most beautiful covers I've seen. And I'm so stoked to be a part of it.

This in-person meet with #TWICE was a long time coming. 2-3 years of Zoom calls, and a move from being Betty Boop’s social manager to a social lead to where I’m at now. But finally, things worked out in the end. Thank you to everyone who read. This story’s a special one. 🙏🏼💗

Hey, American television, or U.S. media trying to get that clout and understand, want to do better with K-pop coverage? Hire K-pop writers and creatives who have the knowledge and know what the fuck they're talking about. It's that simple.

Having the time to go to a couple of shows on this tour, the New York stops were probably the best shows in my opinion. I think we can all also agree they sure hit ✨different✨ when they start breathing American air. Sharon is a prime example.
