Author: Ask Me About Kpop February 16, 2022 Duration: 57:14

We did it y'all! Idols on the podcast!! We were SO lucky to get to talk to rookie boy group BLITZERS before the start of their first US Tour. But before we hear from BLITZERS, we want to introduce you to the group. Tune in for a little 'snorkel' through the members and their last 9 months as a debuted idol group. Then, we interview BLITZERS! Hear their Kpop origin stories (as is tradition), their answers to our burning stage costume questions, and the best thing they've eaten in LA. Next up, a recap of the concert! And finally, we watch BLITZERS most popular mv for our random game! Thank you BLITZERS for such a wonderful experience! You will never ever shake us! Your AMAK 이모 love you forever <3
