WHOOPS, it's summer all of a sudden. The slow month of April, dotted with a couple vacations by the girls, rolled into the even slower month of May with some more time off in June. So, why not wrap everything up into one for Spring 2025? Artists discussed: NCT Wish, UNIS, &TEAM, Katseye, RIIZE, SHINee, Seventeen, UAU (Dreamcatcher), Enhypen, ARTMS, ILLIT, Cravity, fromis_9, aespa, and... Lorde?

Returning from the 2024 recap, Dani and Lotus are back to their regular schedule reviewing the k-pop tracks that caught their attention — one way or another — from the end of last year through February. Additionally, going forward they may mention non-k-pop artists they'd like to bring to your attention, although the podcast will continue to be k-pop focused!Artists mentioned: Twice, &TEAM, XLOV, ONF, Zerobaseone, Lisa (Blackpink), MUNA, and Paledusk.

It's a little scuffed and more than a little late but it's here! Azalea joins Dani and Lotus to reveal their Top 25 K-Pop Songs of 2024, discussing each entry as it comes along in as reasonable an amount of time as they can muster.Support us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/pressedpetals
