Ep. 211: SMTOWN Summer Albums

Happy Summer! For this week's episode, we're taking a look at the 6 summer 'family' albums that SM Entertainment released between 2002-2009. Who was featured on these albums? What did the songs sound like? How much fun do you think they all had wrestling in the pool? Why haven't they done one of these albums for 13 years?!? All those questions and a lot of very cheesy summer music ahead!!The two hundred eleventh episode of Ask Me About Kpop aired on July 7, 2022.
