It is a very rare thing to see a male K-Pop artist covering a female artist’s song, much more a girl group as famous and as powerful as Black Pink. Yet, this is something that Gaho constantly slays. Since his debut, he has made four highly lauded and amazing covers of Black Pink that would make the girls run for their money! Check out the best of Gaho’s BlackPink covers here.

Since then, his songs are on constant repeat on my Spotify playlist.
Being a BTS stan for years now, it has always been my dream to purchase and own an album or any merchandise from them. For years since I knew about them and their body of work, I can only watch with longing with a tinge of envy towards other fans who are doing their own unboxing and posting pictures with their BTS merch purchases.
K-pop has been initially popularized internationally by songs with colorful, upbeat and danceable music paired with slick choreography.
