For lack of a better phrase, Kpop is a big influence on our desire. Whether it is a momentary daydream or some full-fledged fan fiction. The effort and craft these idols and their companies exhibit influence the way we feel, see, and hear them. Give them more skinship, they say and they will pay! Throw in a little queer love and they will follow and tweet and stan. Not everything is a tactic at first but once it makes money for these companies, then it is used and abused to the point where fans recognize it but can't get enough of it. Today with the ladies of Drunk Kpop, we discuss Queerbaiting in Kpop and how it influences our desires.

I think we all get a little tired of Kpop and its growing community. It's all good. However, have you ever felt like someone is forcing their relationship with Kpop? Not sure what we mean? Come join us for a conversation about forcing a relationship with Kpop through Konnect'd Podcast. Sometimes fantasy is better than the reality.

It's that time of year where music is in the air and international fans are ruining their sleep schedule to cheer on their favorite idols in hopes they take home that big shiny trophy! Yes, that's right, it's awards season! A time-honored tradition where groups are finally going to get acknowledgment they deserve for all the work they did that year, right? Ugh...maybe. Although it should be a time of excitement and joy, it often turns into fights, petty drama, and ruined nights for a lot of people, fans and idols alike. But why does something that's supposed to be such a joyous night cause so many issues? Guess you'll have to listen to find out.

We are back with a new season of Konnect'd Podcast, a K-pop podcast. In this episode, we discuss Konnect'd in 2020 and share what we are working on for 2021. Also, in addition to the new podcast look, we revamped our website. Please visit us at konnectdent.com for more information about Konnect'd Entertainment and Konnect'd Podcast.

Your girls are back and this time we're saying what you guys are thinking, but too afraid to speak on. That's right, we're talking about everything unkpopular. We looked up some topics that people submitted anonymously and let our own personal thoughts and feelings on the matter be known. It may not be pretty, it may not be perfect but come join us as we talk about the unkpopular side of Kpop.

So our last podcast was back in July, early July, and we just packed up and left. Not to leave this behind, but we actually traveled. When we came back, we discussed changes and looked into what Konnect'd need to do to drive our mission and vision for Konnect'd forward. Soon after, we started planning for our first live event, and merchandise and other content related to Konnect'd divisions. The podcast was a weekly topic, but we still felt we need to make some changes before coming back. Now here we are and hopefully back better than ever. If you are one of the few Konnects that enjoyed our podcast, we want to say thank you for listening and enjoying the pod.

This week we are having our first discussion about obsession and boundaries with Kpop and fandoms in general. This discussion will focus on discussing beyond obsessive behaviors and taking possessive to a whole new level. Most fans respect or walk the line, but the weird few have extreme disregard of comfort and reality when it comes to Asian fandom participation. Sometimes the fever for Kpop can cross some pertinent invisible lines. Crossing that unspoken boundary may or may not have unintended consequences. We are sure that most things people do for the love of Kpop are just that, but sometimes people can forget that there is a line.
