A Summary of Scoops

Times when 17 Carat K-Pop was ahead of the curve!

Here are just some of many examples of times I predicted which artists would be on the rise and interviewed them before their careers skyrocketed!

I interviewed Big Ocean before bigger publications did!

I interviewed BINI years before their debut North American tour!

I also talked to some K-pop and K-rock acts prior to their debut North American tours, including Rolling Quartz, YOUNG POSSE, E’LAST, n.SSign, and UNIS!

I interviewed Isaac Hong the year before his KCON debut!

I talked to TRENDZ before they joined the lineup for the multi-artist “K-Pop Breakout Tour”!

I interviewed WOOAH back when they were still known as “woo!ah!”!

I told readers to keep their eyes on The Faker Club back when the company WAY BETTER was still called that!

I covered some AI and virtual artists prior to that being a more common headline!

Lastly, I talked to many K-pop group members as they began striking out on their own, including JINNY and DENISE from SECRET NUMBER, Yerin from GFRIEND, MIYA from GWSN, JUNHEE from A.C.E, HeeJin from LOONA, and more!

I’ve interviewed more than fresh faces…

Some of my favorite interviews have been with long-time icons in the world of Korean music, including Jaurim and Kim Wan Sun!
