The end of the December always translates to one thing to music bloggers: Year Recap lists. I've given up on this a long time ago, as what is my favorite song at the moment, could be #14 tomorrow (yes, I'm flippant. Deal with it.). Instead, here is a list of my most listened to KPOP songs as captured by my BFF, Last.FM. Below this, you'll find my live concert reviews for this year and a full timeline of what I've been grooving to month-by-month. It doesn't get more recappy than that...
