I bought a couple of albums on CD, "Waterfall" by B.I and "Beep Beep" by Jessica Jung (Girls' Generation), while perusing Artbox. I love the collectibles that come with the CDs. It's an enjoyable experience playing a disc while looking through the photobook with lyrics written in them. There is a connection to the artist that streaming music can't replicate.

I've been following this awesome South Korean rock band, Rolling Quartz, since last year when I saw them perform in Toronto. The group consists of five members: Yeong Eun - Drums, Hyun Jung - Guitar, Ja Young - Vocals, Iree - Guitar, and Arem - Bass. They just released their new single, "RE.BOLD." They are going on tour throughout the US and Canada including a stop in Vancouver, BC next year.

I was traveling in South Korea and stayed in Busan at Haeundae Beach during Festival Shiwol from October 3-5, 2024. I had no idea this event was happening and saw a great artist, Ha Hyun Sang (하현상), perform. I am a fan.
