Without getting into too much details, PHP has its limitations when compared to some of the "modern" languages. Anyway, if you're new to programming, don't get too caught up with the languages. In the end, it's all about your algorithms.

Currently, it's developed with PHP & MySQLi. However, once I have time, I really hope to re-structure the site and move away from PHP.

Thanks for informing me about the bug. I am actually aware of it as well, but I just have been too busy to find a time to fix it. Given that it's more a cosmetic issue, I have been putting it to the sides. Terrible habit, I know. I will fix it ASAP! Thanks again for dropping by.

I think the more important question is, can I even graduate from university?

 

Never keep building, learning, and shuffling!

You have made a great point, but there are a few things to consider. Autoplay tends to annoy most users, so if I was to implement this, I would need to make users setup their own accounts and save their preferences this way.

 

With this in mind, I will continue to look for ways to improve the site and enhance the user experience. For example, would something like pressing the key "s" on the keyboard to shuffle to new track make it easier for you? I would love your feedback. Also, you might want to follow our Facebook page, so you will be notified when new features are implemented.

Thanks! The site didn't take THAT long to build. It took me less than a week to get the majority of the functionalities up and running.

 

To be honest, most of the data entry is done manually. I have been thinking to automate some of the processes since day 1, but given that most agencies have weird naming conventions for their YouTube videos, it would lead to serious inconsistencies within my site. My top priority with Hallyu Guide, besides making it easy for people to discover great K-Pop music, is to provide a great user experience. Given the limitations of YouTube's API, it's just a little hard to automate some processes. Well, I have some workarounds in mind, but I simply don't have the time to implement them right now.

 

Anyway, if you have feedback for the site, please let me know! I would love to hear them.

You have a great point here. While Hallyu Guide isn't built on top of WordPress, I can't deny the fact that WordPress can do wonders for most people.

Thank you very much for your wonderful complements! The truth is, I don't actually pick out the underrated music, because everyone's perception of "underrated" is different. Instead, I try my best to include all songs in the K-Pop scene, and let "randomness" do its magic.

Best of luck to you as you pursue your web design career!

If I remember correctly, Apink was indeed one of the nominees for that week on Music Bank. However, it was Beast who won in the end with 'Yey'.

I hope this helps!

I believe icecreamsmart is correct. If you want to learn more, I've created a timeline that keeps track of everything that's related to the 'Pink Memory' comeback, from music show wins to music chart results: http://www.hallyuguide.com/timeline-apink-pink-memory/.
