I'm back with my dear Arashi-fan friend and we discuss the newest episodes of Arashi Voyage. Other topics include recent BTS promotions in Japan; what's popular in Japan right now; how idol sales techniques work; what being a global idol means; and how Sho's Hip Pop Boogie still bangs. Music from Arashi, Keyakizaka46, Mflo, Yonezu Kenshi, and more!
In this episode, my dear Arashi-fan friend returns to discuss the recent docu-series from BTS and Arashi. We also discuss the recent BTS promotions in Japan and the type of music that’s popular in Japan right now.
I’ve been a fan of Asian pop culture for over 20 years and want to help bridge the gap between East and West. There is a lot of informal (and formal) gatekeeping that goes on and I’d like to help new fans break through the gates.
