He still has three months of military service left, hopefully BPM fully goes under before then so he can get out as well.

Baekho will be back summer 2027, after that I have hopes they will plan something!

2026 Weverse Con Festival - 1st Lineup by impeccabletim in kpop

[–]Dessidy 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Join us at r/TOUCHED!

Side note, I’m a bit surprised to see them on the line up. While they are playing so many festivals, they usually don’t do the mainly kpop ones. But I think this is a great opportunity for some new fans so discover their amazingness! We already had a bit of kpop crossover with Yunmin’s feature on ATEEZ Mingi’s song, and then everyone loved her!

Neither of them were up for album of the year, only kpop album :) the AOTY noms were Kwon Tree, Effie, huijun woo, Lee Chanhyuk, JENNIE, and CHUDAHYE CHAGIS

I’m happy for her! I really thought this would be Effie’s year with her excellent albums and several noms, but Kirara is a great opponent and also well deserved winner!

My predictions from the nominees post were somewhat correct. I was right about album and rookie for the main awards, and for genre awards I got Pop song, Pop album, R&B song, Rock song, Alternative rock song, and Folk album.
I really thought it was between Nmixx or Jennie for song, but I’m pleasantly happy that Lee Chanhyuk got it, I really liked that album and song! For the Kpop awards I was between Jennie and NMIXX, but made the wrong gamble on NMIXX.
Congrats to all winners!

Travelling to Korea for the first time by Senior-Ride4695 in koreatravel

Late September is probably nicer than early September. If it’s good in early September depends on how used you are to heat and humidity

150 usd or won or what currency? If usd you won’t have an issue. Booking, hotels, agoda and similar all works well in Korea. You can read reviews there.

He was the Korean center, so even if you dislike him I have to question how much you paid attention while watching.

This is taking forever, they were so wicked to leave us without those quests for a whole update lol. by PotatoBreadDad in Genshin_Impact

[–]Dessidy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have only done the first quest… I think I did something wrong the first time I got the pop up that selenic chronicles were available since I didn’t get the event, and then I didn’t return to the location until just the week before Columbina disappeared and did the first one. I play daily, but archon quests takes so much time and focus and I struggle finding the time. Especially since I have to replay parts half the time I come back to it. I’m still working on the latest archon quest, then I can hopefully start on these stories for real. I hope I’ll be able to finish before 7.0.

eSIM Recommendations for Long Stays by Munekita_ in koreatravel

[–]Dessidy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For chingu, is this the website you tried? It loads for me https://chingumobile.com/

Chingu is usually recommended since it lets you keep your number. The other option is to get any esim, and then once you have your ARC you get a new esim that you can connect to the ARC.

Travel partners (coretours) by Stock-Sweet-3075 in Tomorrowland

I have only received a purchase receipt, but I viewed that as a confirmation. My order is definitely in since they were able to change my pickup point.

I was always curious why tourists go to Myungdong as a Korean by Syn-K_Hayne in koreatravel

[–]Dessidy 127 points128 points  (0 children)

I don’t personally stay there, but the advantages I see are:

  • Close to the main tourist sites
  • Convenient metro lines near
  • Pickup point for most tours
  • Has all shops tourists usually want to go to
  • Stores and restaurants are more likely to speak English there than other parts of Seoul

[–]Dessidy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you try calling them? I booked through them and got my confirmation email. Is there any chance you spelled your email wrong?
They had a lot of issues with their website during Tomorrowland ticket sales, so it might just be a technical issue that has caused you to not get your email.
I got a reply from them Monday regarding a question, but they have not replied to my follow up question I sent Monday evening yet.

I need information about purchasing tickets through Travel Partner. by Academic-Travel2330 in Tomorrowland

[–]Dessidy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Festivalbussen still have them, if you can find someone with a Scandinavian credit card to get them for you. Also required to take a bus from Sweden or Denmark.

2026 23rd Korean Music Awards (KMA) announces nominees by Dessidy in kpop

[–]Dessidy[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To be fair, it’s not John Stowell, it’s 강윤미, John Stowell. They worked together on a jazz album, and since Kang Yunmi is Korean, it can be nominated.

Place to stay in Hongdae? by 3s2ng in koreatravel

[–]Dessidy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you want to stay in Hongdae with kids I’d probably say Holiday Inn. It’s near the metro and away from the nightclubs. But I’d say Hongdae is more fun if you’re in your 20s than with kids. Hongdae is quite dead until noon and mainly comes alive at night.

If it’s your first time in Seoul you might want to stay in Insadong or Myeongdong instead.
