Liz, Orchid & Rooster/The K-popped! Trio


WHO are the Darevils?
They are Liz, Orchid and Rooster and they make the K-popped! Trio.

I only know Rooster personally. Maybe I've met Liz & Orchid as well but I'm not sure...hmmm. After returning from US, Rooster got herself into an ad agency. After 2 years working with her, she decided to fly away, literally, in 2007. I haven't seen her since...sob :’(

WHAT is K-popped!?
“K-popped! is a blog dedicated to all things Korean. And when we say ‘all things Korean’ we mean everything – from movies to music, cuisine to fashion and even language and culture.

Above all, we do our best to monitor the rise of the Hallyu (Korean wave) in Malaysia. Did you know that every other local channel airs a Korean drama? Check out our K-popped! tee vee thread if you don’t believe us.

We also realise that in Malaysia, Korean entertainment news is basically catered for the Chinese-literate crowd. Since we are illiterate that way, K-popped! is a sensible way to bring Korean showbiz news to the English-literate masses, not only in Malaysia, but in the Cyberworld as well.”

WHY did you all do it?
“Liz and Orchid started blogging about Korean stars at their respective personal blogs after being K-popped! at a Rain concert, which Liz had won front-row tickets to.

Eventually, we decided to dedicate a blog to our rapidly-growing new-found passion. And so, K-popped! (k-popped.com) was born in June 2007.

Shortly after, Rooster was roped in to give K-popped! its ‘look’ and to share her passion for all things edible.

The blog serves as a gateway for us to break away from the monotony of our day jobs. It has also allowed us to dream and try for something bigger. But that’s one more darevil story we’ll leave for another day." ;)

WHAT's K-popped!'s advice to people who dare not?
Rooster: “You’ve only got one lifetime. Get to it!”
Liz: “Keep dreaming big because one day, something will come true ;-)”
Orchid: “Just like going on the flying fox, launching off is always the most difficult part. The first step is always the toughest. Just take the plunge and enjoy the ride.”
