I was headed for KL, Malaysia at that time and was delightfully surprised at my Korean music options! I was there for official business a couple of weeks ago... yeah, sadly not for any kpop event huh? It has been a long while since I last visited KL so I was feeling amazed at all the hallyu influences all over the place ㅋㅋㅋ.
I didn't really have much free time to go around but I managed to slip into a music store at one mall to check out their Kpop offerings. This extensive spread was impressive.
The magazine stands boast of these Korean-inspired covers too!
The inner fangirl in me was screaming "Manse!!" seeing how Malaysia has embraced this now global Kpop phenomenon. KL also felt like a more welcome place with all these familiar sightings.It's a curious feeling being a foreign fangirl in a location outside of Seoul and my hometown... There is a strange sense of awkward pride and inexplicable amusement ㅋㅋ. This fandom is indeed a big complicated network and there is only so much you can fathom at one time!
