In this weeks episode we have a special guest with us to discuss the Stigma against being into Kpop, being a Kpop fan. And why is it a problem being of a certain age and loving what you love?
So we sit down with Momma Soju of 57, and discuss everything from the questions we get and also the stereotype that is put onto Kpop fans and the word "Fandom" and "Crazed teenage girls".
Do you get that question a lot? "Seriously? You Like Kpop?"
"isn't that for teen girls"
"It's just a bunch of cute polished artists that can't even sing?"
"How do you understand it when it isn't English?"

From humble beginnings to becoming a global phenomenon, we discuss BTS and their Debut days and how we came to love our Bulletproof Boy Scouts. With the Band being 10 years active we could do a 10 hr episode. But don’t worry, we have decided to do 10 extra episodes just to cover Bangtan in future Boraehae episodes.
