Thanks again for these posts!

Just posting the Stardust group fror this week Lienel with their new single Melty Flowers

Also someone on my tl posted the oricon numbers from today and reminded me of these new boy group releases

WEST-Fate

Kid Phenomenon-One Day

Speaking of LDH they announced the disbandment of MOONCHILD today. They came from the same audition program as Kid Phenomenon and were supposedly a collab with Hybe. Two of the girls dropped out between winning the audition and debut, one girl who was supposed to be like the center went on hiatus for medical issues and hasn’t come back. What a mess.

And thank you so much for always commenting on my posts! 🫶🧡

FATE is so iconic, I still think about the MV from time to time.

Omg Moonchild... all I remember is that they had quite a grown-up concept for their debut even though some of the members were still in their teens. D: What a mess from the beginning to the end.

Thanks OP for these posts!
They're so informative and introduces me to new music and artists!

I listened to Aimyon this past weekend and I really liked her vibe.

[reveriexz]

Aimyon is so good!! Her music makes me feel nostalgic for some reasons. 🥹 (Probably because she reminded me of YUI or miwa.)

Nice picks OP. Loved Toki Asako and Leo! But I also lol'ed outloud at those lyrics to New York, New York. "Her sex reminds me New York" - man c'mon, this city is filthy, that's not the imagery you want!

[reveriexz]

Hehe thank you!! 🫶

New York definitely feels like one of the more over-romanticized city from what I've heard so far! 🤣

Wow I was OBSESSED with Angela Aki's "Home" back in my university days, she hadn't come up in my mind in so long

[reveriexz]

Home was my fave album too! During my first year of uni I had to live away from home and I listened to this album a lot when I missed my family. Rain, Oogesa ni Aishiteru, and Home still bring me tears everytime ;_;
