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!

A student completed her presentation on BTS's Save Me by saying "STAN BTS! You all really should! They are so incredible!" 🥲

Since Yunjin featured on Hobi's I Don't Know, I'm not surprised he's doing something with Le Sserafim now 😍

I've only been to Philly for conferences but I've loved it! And Pittsburgh, too!

Sharon Becker @sharonbeckerphd.bsky.social · 2d

It was such a tough choice with Enhypen because I could obviously give every song in their catalog but Helium seems to point at a great direction for them! VVV was a cool edition to The Boyz's sound :)

I would love for a Kpop group to go to Philly because I've never seen a show there!

I could give you a thousand more recs for each one but I'll stick to the newest songs for now! Also: Rob was curious where you saw Wet Leg 😀

Teaching is definitely not easy but watching my students do presentations on Kpop videos and unpacking them in light of everything they've read/watched about S. Korean life and culture is kinda rad, honestly. Fun day w videos by VIXX, Itzy, aespa & yesterday w SVT, RM, & Enhypen among others!

Sharon Becker @sharonbeckerphd.bsky.social · 5d

They are my whole heart! I love them so much!

The way Enhypen spend the first half of their vacation screaming at bugs or recalling how they screamed at giant bugs 😂
