We’re back with a new Time Capsule and this time we’re featuring the queens from 9MUSES with their bop ‘Dolls’. ‘Dolls’ is such an iconic track with a sick brass line, greap rap verses and a catchy hook.

Back with another k-pop time capsule, today we’re listening to none other than Rain’s babies, MBLAQ.

There’s a lot of things that are living rent-free in our minds from the classic drama ‘Secret Garden‘; If I have to pick two, it would be Huyn Bin’s sparkly blue tracksuit and Baek Ji Young’s contribution to the OST, “That Woman”. That song is nothing short of ICONIC. Serving as the main theme song, the song got us bawling ...
