18. Who is your ultimate bias group/artist and why (PICK ONLY ONE)?
シェルビー: Big Bang because no matter how long you have to wait for their next album or song (as a group), the wait is always worth it. They never disappoint you and their songs/performances just keep getting better.
pkimhi: Okay, so I really still have a love for SHINee. They were the first boy group that I was into and they've just matured a lot since I started listening to them. I still like a few of their recent songs and they just really seem to work well as a group.
19. Who is your ultimate bias member and why (PICK ONLY ONE)?
シェルビー: Rap Monster of BTS because I really admire his personality as a rapper. On twitter he shares some pretty deep thoughts and always tweeting about songs he is listening to. You can tell he is really passionate about his work as a musician. He's not the most perfect artist but he's the perfect "imperfect" idol.
pkimhi: Shocker alert, not really... It's Jung Yonghwa from CNBLUE! He composes a lot of the songs on their album like Can't Stop, and the song "you've fallen for me" from the Drama 'Heartstrings' and probably a lot more! Gotta love his skills and voice <3
20. Name your top 5 favorite groups or artists:
シェルビー: Big Bang, 2NE1, BTS, U-Kiss, EXO
pkimhi: 2NE1, BIGBANG, CNBLUE, K.Will, Kim Ye Rim
