  1. Kep1er Performance - 2025 WORLD K POP FESTIVAL
    youtu.be/Zpb2-PXdJBY?si=Zin46K

    -- Although I always enjoy watching Kep1er perform "Back To The City" and "Shooting Star", I felt the absence here during these songs of Youngeun, Mashiro, and Yeseo. I hope that Youngeun is able to return from hiatus soon, and I also nourish what I recognize as almost certainly vain but nevertheless cherished hopes that Yeseo and Mashiro will be able to rejoin the group.

    -- Chaehyun (3:20) always strikes me as a terrific performer.

    -- The blonde Hikaru (2:53) and Dayeon (3:11) look as good as ever with their shorter hairstyles. I wish more idols had their hair this length.

    -- Dayeon's outfit shows off her figure to great advantage, and the keys are a delightful touch.

  2. Bullet the Blue Sky*

    I went outside 
    to watch the 
    stars.
    
    It is as if 
    all the bullets 
    from the war 
    have been fired 
    into the sky,
    tearing holes 
    in the black velvet 
    for a little bit 
    of heaven 
    to shine 
    through.
    
    Every once 
    in a while 
    the fabric rips 
    as a shooting star 
    races across 
    the sky,
    but then 
    it quickly 
    mends 
    itself.
