This is a radio show that offered foreign pop songs instead of K-pop.[6][7] However, the songs of Kpop singers are introduced when they reach the Billboard charts such as Psy's[8] and BTS's.[9]
Sometimes, requested songs related to specific events appear, for example, when Meatspin was popular in South Korea in 2008, Dead or Alive's You Spin Me Round (Like a Record)[10] and Yes' Roundabout, which was the ending song when the first season of the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure anime aired in Japan in 2012.[11]
