Blackpink: Light Up the Sky
I know it's only Kpop, but I like it! I recap Blackpink's doc.
Blackpink’s The Show
Not quite ready to leave the world of Kpop, I wrote a review of Blackpink's livestream concert, The Show. Of course it wasn’t live when I did the recap. Plus, the pictures I included are bad quality because I had to take screen shots off of Youtube. Still a good show. Check it out.
