I so rarely listen to music unless I happen to be driving a distance in my car and then it is to the 60's, 70's and 80's music. I think it is great that Spotify is including all the music from different countries.

So fun to learn what is popular throughout the world. I finally got to see some KPop videos when I went to dinner at a Korean restaurant. Very entertaining!

I've never listened to K-Pop before, it's a genre of music that's untouched by me.
