Stealing this from @AllonsyMelissa, and starting on the first in the month in the hopes I won't confuse myself any more than necessary. Also going to hashtag so all y'all can mute my nonsense. :)

Day 1 - A Song That Got You Into KPop
I first heard this on Matinee Idle - of all places! - in the mid-2010s. Phil had brought in one of his daughters in to talk about KPop to fill an hour. I was a bit meh about her choices tbh π, but I liked this enough to buy it on iTunes. :)
Love Song - BigBang
Day 2 - Favourite K-Drama OST
I don't watch K-dramas at all (nothing against them, it's just a brain/concentration thing), but I've always loved this song. Given how much Wheein says she doesn't like singing ballads, she's so good at them. π₯Ί
Shadow (Yellow OST) - MAMAMOO Wheein
Day 3 - A Song That You Once Set As An Alarm
It's still my alarm... :)
Don't (2018 MAMA remix) - MAMAMOO Hwasa
Day 4 - A Song By A Rapper
ofc I'm going to pick our girl, bcos just listen to her. π₯Ί
Snow - MAMAMOO MoonByul
Day 5 - A Girl Group Song
Going to stun you all by *not* posting my girls. :) Instead I'm going to post one of my all-time favourite Dingos...
The Boots (acapella mix) - GUGUDAN
Day 6 - A Song That You Love Because Of Its Lyrics
How are you?
How are you doing?
Is it the day you've been hoping for?
Like you asked me, I asked you
"I've been doing well"
Without hesitating for a moment
I sincerely hope you tell me
"I'm fine,"
"I'm fine,"
"I'm fine,"
And with that one phrase,
I'm fine too...
I'm Fine - EXO D.O.
Day 7 - A Song That You Found The Choreo Was Easy
I wouldn't say I found it easy as such - I am very much vocal line rather than performance line IRL π - but I am compelled to do the choreo every time the chorus hits. This is fine at home, slightly less so in Asian grocery stores. π¬
Likey - TWICE
TWICE(νΈμμ΄μ€) "LIKEY" M/VThe 5th Mini Album "What is Love?" Spotify https://goo.gl/jVLYYYiTunes & Apple Music https://goo.gl/DKyKZfThe 1st Album "twicetagram" ...
Day 8 - Favourite Debut Song
How young they all look! π₯Ί
Replay - SHINee
Day 9 - A Song You WIll Never Get Tired Of
Written by song-writing goddess Cosmic Girl, loved it with my whole heart the moment I heard it, and a lil bit more every day since...
Finally - MAMAMOO
Day 10 - A Song That You Used To Be Addicted To
You couldn't move for hearing this song when it first came out 2017/18, and it's still a great sound, especially on a lazy, sultry, sunny day...
Instagram - DEAN
Day 11 - A Boy Group Song
The person who originally got me into KPop was a Xiumin-stanning EXO-L, so it seems only right... :)
Groove - EXO [audio only]
Day 12 - A Song About Positivity
Any excuse to post this!
π€ π π€
I Am The Best - 2NE1
Day 13 - A Song With A Colour In The Title
From the legend that is Lee Jieun. πββ
Blueming - IU
Day 14 - A Song From A Group That Already Disbanded
Had high hopes for this girl group, but alas, it wasn't to be. π
Hocus Pocus - BVNDIT
Day 15 - A Song From A Group With More Than 9 Members
This was an easy choice, as I've always had a soft spot for these lads. :)
Oh My! - SEVENTEEN
Day 16 - A Song You Like Because Of The MV
It's completely bonkers and always makes me laugh. It's like panto, but Korean and Wild West. π
Mamacita (drama version) - SUPER JUNIOR
Day 17 - A Japanese Song From An Idol Group
This became a firm favourite when I first started listening to KPop, but bcos I knew diddly squat about the Korean language back then I didn't realise it was actually in Japanese until much later.
Limitless - NCT 127
Day 18 - A Song You WOuld Recommend To A Non-KPop Stan
This was so hard, bcos I don't really know the 5th Gen, and APT, while it's a great song, is more a western pop song than a Korean one? So I'd probably have to travel back to old school, bcos this song just doesn't age...
View - SHINee
Day 19 - Favourite Song From A Sub-Unit
Not my actual favourite (that will turn up in a later entry) but this was one of my favourites from last year. :)
Love Me A Little - MONSTA X Shownu x Hyungwon
Day 20 - First Song That Comes To Shuffle
Bit surprised by this, since I didn't realise it was in my library. π¬ π
Kill This Love - BlackPink
Day 21 - A Song From Your Favourite Era
Mamamoo's four seasons era. The Solar-highlighted 'Blue;s' album was my favourite, altho bcos we had the most useless company known to man or beast, the girls ended up having to promote it's very existence themselves. π
But, anywaaaaay...
Wind Flower - MAMAMOO
Day 22 - A Song From A Soloist
Have to include something from the absolute GOAT solo female vocalist. π πββ
If You - AILEE
Day 23 - A Song That You Regret Knowing About It Late
Saw these lads turn up a couple of times in a choreo compilation and thought, 'Woah! They look really cool!' Googled to learn more, and discovered they'd disbanded two years previously. π
What U - SPEED
