How do I first met Korea? Kpop? Kdrama? Kfood? Travel?
It is a story of love first sight, betrayal, pain and finally…
Actually, no. I met Korean Ramyun with 3 others. So, it didn’t end well for me.
The second time, we met at Kdrama. No, my aunts fell in love with you. Again, it didn’t work out for me.
After that, I don’t remember if I met Ramyun, Kdrama, Kpop or Kimchi.
My skin was at it lowest when I met Kbeauty. My skin was bad and I was looking for something affordable that doesn’t burn my skin away. I found Korean beauty channel on youtube. It was Get it Beauty. I learnt a lot from the show even when my Korean was zero. I got some very affordable Korean products that I still use up to today. My first product was actually that Skin79 BB Cream to hide my horrible skin. I got Laneige sleeping mask and it was game changer.
I got into how to take care of my skin type better, choose products because of the ingredients formulation and skin just got so much better. I started a small blog to share about what I use. I am not pretty and so is my skin but it gave me confidence that maybe someone out there also share the same skin problem as I do.
Throughout the years, I met some wonderful people who although I haven’t meet in real life we shares so much the same interest on Korean skincare products.
It helps me to gain confidence in my skin since it does gradually gets better. I learn it is okay that I don't look like Kpop idols but I could still share what I like. It has been 10years since. I am not sorry that I like skincare products and I like Korean skincare products a lot.
The choice is actually really infinite and I always can find something really good even for the low price point. Korean cosmetics companies lead the world by listening to their consumers of what they really want for their skin and not trying to force down what they think we should use.
Not paid or sponsored. It is a video made as introduction to K-Influencer Academy. The opinions expressed here are my own and honest as always.
Don't you want the same beautiful outfits the Kpop idols wore in their music videos?
Korean Music Video has been inspiration fashion trends with their unique style that has many wearable daily fashion style but still chic and cool at the same time.
Here is me taking up the Recreating K-pop MV Outfits Challenge X YesStyle.
I am doing inspired look since I can't get everything 100% as in the all Music Videos.
1. White shirt and black pants
- White plain shirt pair up with wide black pants are really popular in music videos. It gives a strong empowerment image and looking really cool at the same time.

3. Fabric Bow Hair
Bow accessories for hair made appearance in many girls' group fashion. It add to the elegance touch to their overal outfit.
Tweed clothing are really popular and made appearance in many of the KPOP music videos. Tweed is a rough, woolen fabric, of a soft, open, flexible texture and considered as high quality pure wool which is a classic item. It used to get reserved only for the aristocrates in the past. The materials is moisture-resistant, durable and just pretty.
5. Plaid Pattern clothing Plaid is really popular and is seen in many Kpop idols MTVs now. Wear it with jeans, tweed jacket, mini skirts or just as light jacket. They look really cool.
WEEKLY (위클리) AFTER SCHOOL

6. Shorts
This is the summer staple. Many Kpop idols rock that high waist short black pants which is really good for summer and spring. Whether you rock the yellow, denim, blue, black or green those short will always look good.
