by

Sulli’s death is a big thing in the news right now.  Tragic, right?  Of course we’re all very upset about this horrible incident, me included.  Having lost several friends and even a partner to suicide, the issue is quite close to my heart.  However finding exactly the right thing to write about someone’s suicide on a k-pop website is hard.  Kpopalypse is here to give website owners a hand so they can maximise their web traffic heartfelt and entirely appropriate feelings of mourning during this awful time.

Look at this picture of Sulli.  One image is worth a thousand clicks.

Kpopalypse’s guide to dating busty women for Kang Daniel to use when dating Twice’s Jihyo

by

Important dating news recently rocked the world of k-pop, as Wanna One’s Kang Daniel was revealed to be dating Twice’s Jihyo.  However, does Kang Daniel really know how to handle Jihyo?  I think it’s important that Daniel treats Jihyo right, so rather than leave everything to chance, I thought I’d lend a hand with a little bit of help.  If you’re reading this and you’re not Kang Daniel, or also not someone else who is dating a girl of Jihyoesque proportions, then this post isn’t really for you so feel free to consider reading it strictly optional.  Kang Daniel and other interested parties, read on!

Kpopalypse’s super-basic easy-to-follow and not at all condescending guide to k-pop for people who have only ever heard of BTS

by

Perhaps you’re a longtime reader of Kpopalypse blog, or a veteran k-pop fan who knows all about the groups, songs, boys and girls, business deals, shadiness and trufax of k-pop.  If so, you can probably stop reading right now because this post isn’t for you, and in fact you may even find it slightly condescending (which is a long word that you might have trouble spelling, that means “talking down to you like the dumb cunt you are”).  No – instead, this is a fresh new post for all those new fans who have just gravitated towards k-pop because BTS are a thing and have heard that BTS might be a k-pop (but also might not be).  Let’s read on and discover all about this wild crazy new thing called k-pop!

If I insert a picture of BTS here (I’m pretty sure the above is a picture of BTS, Google Image Search told me so), hopefully you’ll click on the article and then you’ll click on my advertising. Hey it works for Billb… oh wait, I don’t have any advertising on this site. How am I supposed to farm BTS fans for ad revenue with no ads? Clearly I haven’t thought this through.
