Annyeong!

For this blog, since we're nearing Christmas and we're in the holiday season, I decided to talk about some of the K-Pop Christmas music that's been coming out lately. I'll just go one by one and put the track names and the album cover.

First we have EXO's Christmas album, Miracles in December.

  2. Christmas Day
  3. The Star
  4. My Turn to Cry
  5. The First Snow (첫 눈)
  6. Miracles in December (12월의 기적) - Classical Orchestra Version 
They put up a music video for Miracles in December and it's really good so I'd check it out :)

Next we have Crayon Pop who released a Christmas single called Lonely Christmas. It sounds kinda sad but it's actually really upbeat and catchy so you should go search that one too!
