#17 - MAISON, released on their 2nd full-length studio album "Apocalypse: Save us" on April 12, 2022. It's the start of the Apocalypse era, probably a trilogy. The lyrics, as I understood them, are basically about human made climate change. Maison is french for house, in this case would be all our house, the Earth. 💞
#14 - BOCA, released on the 5th mini album "Dystopia: Lose Myself" on April 17, 2020. It's the second part of the Dystopia trilogy. Boca is spanish for mouth and this song continues the story about how words can hurt people. It's a really pretty MV and their most viewed one 👄❣️
#11 - SCREAM, released on February 19, 2020 on the album "Dystopia: The Tree of Language". It was the first kpop MV I ever saw, and the beginning of my journey... It's the beginning of the Dystopia trilogy and, while the story is about a witch hunt in the Middle Ages, it seems to be a metaphor for online hate in social media.
let's start the wild ride that is this month of may.

MDMRN Twin 1: Are they supposed to be fighting people?
MDMRNia: What's the word for after the world ends?
Me: Post-apocalyptic?
MDMRNia: Yea, that. This video is like that.
MDMRNia: Did they say save my home in the ocean?
Me: Yes, it's a metaphor for the environment
MDMRNia: People don't live in the ocean unless it's a house boat
Me: No, it's...
MDMRN Twin 1: Oh! No one lives in polar areas except penguins
Me: 🤦♂️
Tales of my kids watching #KPOP music videos with me:

MDMRN Twin 1: But why?
MDMRNia: And whose the person watching them?

MDMRNia Yes. Old abandoned amusement park and Alice in Wonderland.
Me: ...
MDMRNia: That's too many themes.
#Intro time! I hope this is the last intro post I'll have to make. I'm Jess, and I'm a fandom old. I casually follow a variety of fandoms, but I'm heavily involved in kpop right now - talk to me about Stray Kids, BTS, Dreamcatcher, and others! My goal is to learn a new group by the end of the year. I especially love podfic and think that podficcers deserve a lot of love in our online communities!
