K-pop Mom - The Saga
I was introduced to K-pop through my daughters and their cousins. Initially, I will admit I just simply found joy in their passion and excitement for the genre and got into the bops and beats occasionally, but did not start exploring until I saw the GOT7 “Stop stop it” music video. The opening with Jay B standing on the building got my attention. After that, every time my girls watched practice videos I would ask them to teach me the members. Jay B’s voice was always the most captivating to me but I was always fascinated by how all the members made such unique contributions to each project. My oldest daughter was obsessed with BTS and every car ride was an opportunity for a fact dropping session. Our television was taken over by BTS dance practices, variety shows, and music videos and my living room was filled with sing-a-longs, dancing, and giggles - the sounds of joy. Even now when I think back on it, there is no sound that warms my heart more than the sounds of utter joy streaming
