Seoulgazing

Life is a journey, and one trip is coming to an end today. On the last episode of Seoulgazing, we look back on the good, the bad, and the overwhelming—and we bring you an exciting announcement! If you're here for the K-Pop content, you don't want to miss this.

Someone once said the Gods must be crazy, and we're here to corroborate that. As part of our best-and-worst series, we introduce to you two Greek deities who fit the bill—more or less. Tune in to hear about soap opera enthusiast and Zeus's worst nightmare, Nyx, and the ladies' choice, “Thigh High” Dionysus. Follow us on our social media!
