Afterschool Enters My List of K-Pop Faves!

 Seems like I'm discovering a new favorite K-pop group about every month, and this month is no exception as Pledis Entertainment group AFTERSCHOOL makes the leap to the upper echelon of my K-pop Obsession!
  Oh sure, I've liked them lots before (as witnessed by my earlier posts about them here and there) but for the most part, they were a band that (though I loved their singles like Ah!, Rip Off and Flashback), it was far more about my infinite love of Lizzy (via Running Man) than about the group as a whole.

  Somehow, the catalyst that sparked this newfound love was when I was trying to find a nice live version of their (awesome) song BANG! to show my friend Car, as I thought it one of their most visually stimulating songs (still do, in fact)... Well, I DID find some live performances, but more importantly, during that quest, I came upon a whole plethora of Afterschool goodness- super cool Music Videos,  Sexy Live Performances, and best of all, a whole bunch of Variety Shows and Specials with ENGLISH SUBTITLES!!! YES!!! I found myself watching everything hour after hour, and it was this (in particular the wonderful MBC show PLAYGIRLZ SCHOOL) that made me learn to really LOVE Afterschool and pushed them over into my Top Ten of K-pop Favorites!

Getting To Know the Girls: Raina, Lizzy, Kahi, Uee...

...and JungA, Bekah, Nana and Jooyeon

  After a time of learning the members both old and new (and being thrilled to find original member Bekah came from my humble state of Hawaii, no less!!!) and falling in love with their entire catalog of songs, I KNEW it was time to go out and GRAB some of their CDs!!! I wasted no time going online and putting together an order of some of their albums, and what you see below is the first of more to come (at least, if my WALLET can sustain it!!! LOL)

My Latest K-Pop Haul, Afterschool style!
