While the romance in “My Girlfriend is the Man!” hasn’t fully kicked in yet, the com in this rom-com is definitely serving. Episodes 3 and 4 brought pure chaos that left viewers laughing their lungs out, gasping for air. And I’m not complaining. From evil Min Joo (Chuu) doing her best to break up our main leads to Ji Hoon (Yoo Jung Hoo) claiming her man by boldly announcing she’s his girlfriend (despite her six-foot-tall, very masculine physique making it a hard sell to his parents), the drama continues to deliver laugh-out-loud moments. Here are four times “My Girlfriend is…

A K-pop act’s title track isn’t always the best song on their album, even if it’s the one most people will hear. Sometimes, b-sides deserve recognition too. In the singles-oriented world of K-pop, I want to spotlight some of these buried treasures and give them the props they deserve. Judging from internet rumblings, the overriding opinion seems to be that BoA’s title track Crazier is okay but the album is much stronger. I share this sentiment, though Crazier does sound the most like a “title track.” The album as a whole has a nice blend of genres that should please…
