Korean Music Recommendations - Non-idols (Part 2)

Been 8 months since my last music recommendations post! I keep wanting to do an idol version but I'm just so busy (and lazy) all the time.

I'm on a 1 week break now, after which it'll be 3.5 months before my finals. Sounds like a long time but it's actually really near.
I haven't been watching much dramas either because I had an OSCE (Objective Structured Clinical Examination) test in January, and then Chinese New Year celebrations in February and an Anatomy Spot Test just recently. It's been a very busy couple of weeks. And I've been hooked on Produce 101 lol! Started watching for Kahi, but it's really quite entertaining and addictive. Will do a post on it when it ends in April.

Korean Music Recommendations - Non-idols

People always judge me when I tell them I like Korean music because they always associate it with typical K-Pop - mindless noise and repetitive hooks. But there is a side to Korean music that not many people know about. K-Pop also has some really good hidden gems, but I will cover these in another post.

So here's a post about some of my favourite songs and artists recently, with a focus on non-idols.
I usually don't intentionally go finding these songs, but happen to chance upon them while reading forums or blogs.
