Right now, Lovelyz are in the same spot their agency seniors Infinite were in 2016: about a year from their contract renewal date and plagued by an infrequent release schedule. That’s not to say the individual members haven’t been busy. Kei and Sujeong each released solo albums, and the irresistibly-extra Mijoo has become something of … Continue reading

Buried Treasure: Rocket Punch – Summer Punch!
Most of the time, a k-pop group’s title track is the best song on their album. But, sometimes b-sides deserve recognition too.
