  • Discover what it's like to write with RM on BTS's Comeback Album: 'ARIRANG'

    Welcome back to K-ALL! In this episode, host Angel sits down with the brilliant A.Chic, a Billboard Hot 100 chart-topping visionary and one of Spotify’s "Songwriters to Watch for 2026." From shaping tracks for Jennie to co-writing the soundtrack of the year, A.Chic’s pen is changing the global music landscape.

    But her biggest assignment yet came when she was handpicked as "the chosen one" to collaborate directly with RM (Kim Namjoon) for BTS's highly anticipated return. After an initial high-pressure studio session where A.Chic jokingly thought RM hated her, she received a 3:30 AM phone call that changed everything: RM didn't just want to keep working with her—he wanted her to clear her schedule to help him anchor the emotional heart of ARIRANG.

    Moving their sessions to an open-air house in Santa Monica, a profound trust was born. RM found a rare, safe creative sanctuary in A.Chic, allowing him to pull back the curtain on the intense pressure of the group's legacy, their time away, and his fear of losing their deep connection with ARMY. Moving past the ego, they stepped into "sister mode" and "compassion mode," locking arms to co-write a flawless five-track run: "SWIM," "NORMAL," "Like Animals," "Body to Body," and "Hooligan."

  • Grammy-winning songwriter and producer Derrick Milano joins host Angel on K-ALL to reveal how a secret Los Angeles studio session with BLACKPINK's Jennie and Lisa unexpectedly paved the way for him to co-write six massive hits on BTS's monumental return album, ARIRANG.

    In this exclusive deep dive, Derrick takes us completely behind the scenes of his work with both powerhouse groups. He breaks down the precise moment Big Hit's A&R team heard his work for Jennie and asked the ultimate question: "Do you have anything for BTS?" Derrick pulls back the curtain on the creative process behind the Billboard Hot 100 #1 hit "Swim," the hard-hitting anthem "Hooligan," and the out-of-this-world track "Aliens." He shares what it’s really like to be in the studio with RM, j-hope, Jung Kook, and legendary producer Pdogg. From playing the exact moment his raw vocal ad-libs were kept in "Merry Go Round" with SUGA to detailing BTS's strict studio lunch rules and unwavering humility right out of the military, this interview is packed with untold stories every music fan needs to hear.

    The multi-talented members—Neo, Ryota, Tsubasa, Reia, Mizuki, Yuga, Souma, and Takeru—open up about their challenging survival show roots, their intense training period in Korea, and the deep meaning behind their "all or nothing" name.

The group also breaks down what it was really like working with legendary choreographer Nick Joseph on their debut track "Don't Tell Nobody." Plus, the group shares the wild story behind their track "KAWASAKI" with Big Sean (including a surprise appearance from his dad on set) , the viral success of their "Tokyo Drift" sample , and their massive future dreams—from selling out Zepp tours to headlining the NFL Super Bowl halftime show!

  • From Bad Bunny to Bangtan Sonyeondan (BTS), Ricky (NITTI MUSIC) is redefining what it means to be a global producer. Fresh off the success of BTS’s ARIRANG, Ricky sits down with Angel to discuss the three Billboard Hot 100-charting tracks that changed everything.

    This episode explores the eclectic production of “FYA,” the soul-searching “One More Night,” and the cinematic finale “Into The Sun.” But the story behind the interview is just as remarkable: a K-ALL Reel about BTS’s connection to gospel music bridged the gap between Angel and Ricky, leading to a profound conversation on faith, creativity, and the “insane” talent of the BTS members. Dive into stories of Flume’s experimental stems, V’s natural “band-mate” energy, and the hidden “vocals” Jimin left behind in an unreleased ARIRANG track. We also discuss the emotional impact of seeing 50,000 fans in Mexico City sing BTS’s tracks a cappella and how Ricky’s personal faith journey became the foundation for his success.

  • In this incredibly special episode, Grammy-winning producer Frankie Biggz joins us for a deep dive into the world of Big Ocean and their brand-new album, "The Greatest Battle." But this isn’t just a reaction; it’s a story of destiny. "I was deaf growing up, too." Frankie Biggz opens up about his personal journey with hearing loss and why producing for the world's first Sign Language K-pop group is a full-circle moment for his career.

    We explore the moving connection between BTS and Big Ocean, specifically how a donation from RM (Namjoon) to the Seoul Samsung School for the Deaf inspired member Jiseok to pursue music when he was just a student. Now, as Big Ocean valiantly returns with "The Greatest Battle," we analyze their hits "Alive," "One Man Army," "Back," and "Cold Moon" from a professional production standpoint.

    With BTS's new album Arirang about to change the world again, Frankie and I discuss the "pure souls" of these artists and why their music resonates so deeply on a global scale.

  • This episode features an interview with Big Ocean, the world's first sign language K-Pop group, during a live podcast taping at Stony Brook University's renowned Charles B. Wang Center. PJ, Chanyeon and Jiseok discuss their journey, announce new album "The Greatest Battle," and upcoming tour plans. The group also imparts words of wisdom to young college students still navigating the uncertainties of life.



    The members share that they never dreamed of becoming idols due to a lack of representation for Deaf artists, but they encourage others to pursue their dreams despite difficulties. Big Ocean became the change they wanted to see. They advise students not to wait for perfect conditions to pursue their goals, but to take the first step confidently.

    Their goal is to make music accessible to everyone by using sign language to express lyrics, allowing audiences to 'see' and 'feel' the music, not just hear it.


    Following successful tours in Europe and the US last year, the group is preparing for tours in Europe, the US, Asia and Latin America.

  • What happens when you present K-Pop to a classical music professor? You dive into the history of virtuosity and the psychology of the hater...and you might just earn extra credit!

    Join me for a walkthrough of the presentation that earned me a 125%. We dive deep into BLACKPINK’s hit single, "Shut Down," and analyze its intentional sampling of Paganini and Liszt's "La Campanella."

    This isn't just a breakdown of a sample; it's a look at cultural criticism across centuries. We explore the striking parallels between Niccolò Paganini—the "Devil's Violinist" who was critiqued for being too good—and modern-day K-Pop idols. Whether it's the 19th century or the 21st, true global superstars know how to shut down their critics with undeniable talent.

    In this music analysis episode, we cover:
    -The fascinating history of La Campanella and its transcription by Franz Liszt.
    -How BLACKPINK's message against "haters" channels Paganini’s own turbulent relationship with his audience.
    -Why the intersection of Classical Music and K-Pop offers powerful insights into music theory and music history.
