K-Pop is known for its catchy beats and addictive hooks, but do you know who's behind the music? Join us as we shine a spotlight on the black producers and songwriters who are making their mark in the K-Pop industry. From Teddy Riley to Dem Jointz, we'll explore how these talented individuals are bringing their unique perspectives to the Korean music scene.

But it's not all smooth sailing in the K-Pop world. We'll also take a closer look at the scandal between Lee Soo Man, HYBE, and SM Entertainment that rocked the industry. Find out what happened, and grab the popcorn.
