I teach literature, writing, and storytelling through K-pop. I am an ARMY ENGENE MOA ONEDOOR P1ECE and an incurable multi with a huge enthusiasm for new K-pop groups. I'd love to connect with other academics who study/write about/or just love K-pop!

I have a theory that ARIRANG has been a part of #BTS' long-term plan from the get-go. In my latest article, I discuss the relevance of the album title with an ethnomusicologist, as well as Korean elders who lived through trauma and found comfort in the folk song song.👇

The sun shining and beautiful blue skies make me feel happy and optimistic about the new school semester ... and then I look outside at all of our cars in the apartment parking lot mired in snow and ice because it's been 15 degrees for a billion days in a row and I'm like 😬

This trend is giving me life. College is cool, knowledge is great. The liberal arts is rad. Being well rounded is the GOAT.
Fund all colleges and universities. We should be throwing money at them. Make it affordable for all. Let people take underwater basket weaving if they choose.

Never mind the jobs you had, tell me five classes you took in college:
1. Marine Biology (we got to go out on a boat!)
2. The History of the Holocaust
3. Logic and Critical Thinking
4. Eastern Religions
5. The French Revolution

As we head into the start of the spring semester, I'm reminded of the amount of students in my Kpop class who encounter Kai's "Mmmh" video and inevitably write in their viewing journal, "xyz thoughts about the theme AND ALSO BTW THIS GUY IS FOIIIIIIINE!" 😂
