Singer-songwriter Rothy is our latest feature for our Indie Pick. Rothy, a 99-liner made her debut in 2017 with the single ‘Stars’. She signed with record label DOROTHY Company. The only other artist the company has is ballad king Shin Seung-hun. The soloist has been on my radar for a while. I first heard her song ‘Stars’ not too long ...
We’re back with a new Indie Pick and this time we’re writing about Jooboring! Usually, loving indie artists is one of the easiest things to do. However, sometimes it’s also really, really frustrating because there’s so little info out there. The Spotify page can be all over the place, mixing a bunch of different artists together. It won’t stop us ...
We’re back with a new Indie Pick, this time featuring Samui. His style borders on Indie Rock with some folk influences. Also, I’m not talking about the place Koh Samui in Thailand. It’s not the easiest name to research. Samui is a solo artist under his own label that started his career in 2016 with the song ‘Morning After Dawn’. ...
For this week’s Indie Pick we’re writing about Glowingdog. Now, it’s a little bit different from our usual features. I tend to pick mostly solo artists who are really great vocalists. This time however, I wanted to write about the indie electronic producer Glowingdog. It seems that Glowingdog started in 2016 under the label MUN HWA IN but in 2020 ...
We have a brand new Indie Pick, this time we’re diving deeper into the discography of Gogang. Gogang started his career in 2014 with the single album ‘Paint You Black’. Though sadly that’s not on Spotify, I couldn’t find it on Soundcloud either. However, I eventually found it on YouTube Music (which honestly surprised me). Gogang’s a 93-liner and is ...

This week’s Indie Pick is Fromm and I couldn’t be more excited about this one. I’ve been listening to her music from the very beginning of when I got interested in Korean music and I’ve continued to fall in love with her discography every time she releases something new. So let’s dive in! The beginnings Fromm is a singer-songwriter and ...
For this week’s Indie Pick, I really wanted to share one of my all time favorites: CHAI. She has an amazing voice and even better music, so what’s not to love? CHAI (Crystal Yi, Korean name Lee Soo-jung) is a Korean-American singer, born in 1993. She flew to Korea for the competition ‘Kpop Star 5’ where she ended up winning ...
My fellow jazz lovers, welcome to this week’s Indie Pick about Kim Oki. If you’re not into jazz, don’t worry, he has had some really great collabs into different genres as well. Kim Oki is a Korean saxophonist and clarinettist. And broke through in the jazz world with his first release from 2013: ‘Cherubim’s Wrath’. The annoying thing is that ...
Where to begin with Ahn Ye Eun? She’s our new Indie Pick because her latest release ‘OOO’ blew me away to a different continent. Like seriously, this 92-liner has more talent in her pinky than I do in my entire body. Whew! Ahn Ye Eun started off as a participant in Kpop Star 5. And that show has blessed us ...
