12 Reasons Why K-Pop Fans Are Obsessed With K-Pop
KMusic

K-Pop has been a growing topic of conversation for the past few years. When Psy broke onto the American music scene with his hit "Gangnam Style," all anyone could do was play the song and dance. Now, four years later, K-Pop has ceased to stop growing in popularity. Here are 12 reasons why everyone (including myself) is obsessed with K-Pop.

1. The Singers Are Talented

It is undeniable how talented these idols are. They train for years, and then debut with mind-blowing skills, gaining millions of views in just a matter of hours. The video above is of the JYP Entertainment group "Twice." They debuted in late 2015 gaining 20-million views on this video in two months of debut. One member in this group trained for ten years.

2. Fan Base Nicknames


KPop groups have adorably fun names for their fans. For example, Big Bang calls their fans "V.I.Ps,", Seventeen calls their fans "Carat," and BTS calls their fans "ARMY." No matter what group you are a fan of, you'll always have a cool name to call yourself.

3. The Choreography Is Amazing And Undeniable

They even post dance practice and performance videos for fans, showing off their skills.

4. The Fancams

They are a fan's best friend. Who needs to watch the video of all of the members, when a lovely person filmed only your bias?

5. The Music Videos Are Oscar-worthy

From the amazing visual effects to the amazing story lines, the videos are always attention grabbing.

6. Let's Not Forget The Airport Fashion

Idols manage to look flawless even when they depart for a long flight.

7. K-Pop Idols Say The Darnedest Things



8. They're Funny


They have an amazing habit of doing parodies and funny skits on SNL.

9. Celebrities Like Them, Too


Here's Chloë Grace Moretz with girl group, Mamamoo.

Labelmates Psy and G-Dragon with Justin Bieber

10. Collaborations


They even cross over to do amazing collaborations with Western artists.

11. Girl Groups Can Be Whatever They Want


Cute or fierce as fire.

12. When You See Them, Your World Stops


Last but not least, when your favorite groups come together on one stage, the world stops for that moment.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.
