It's been a year since this beautiful community was created, but I think we grew up a lot. KS staff decided to have a retrospective to see what happened during these 12 months. We had up's and down's, active times and quiet times, but now we can celebrate! Here are a few of our most important moments:

EVENTS WE HAD

3.02.2019 - 20.02.2019: Nominees
25.02.2019 - 5.03.2019: Voting
29.04.2019 - 3.05.2019: Winners
During this event we voted for the best songs of 2018. It was a big project with lots of videos and a new voting platform involved.


41000

02.03.2019 - 08.03.2019
To celebrate International Woman's Day we posted everyday one thread to appreciate the most iconic women of the Kpop Industry.


40920

06.04.2019 - 06.05.2019
Our Game of Thrones inspired event celebrated the last GOT season. It was one of our biggest events, since users teamed in 9 families and fought for 'the iron throne'. Each participant got a family badge and each family had to collect points through different actions:




40997

19.04.2019 - 20.04.2019: Sign ups

During this event users had to hunt easter eggs in different threads on forum. Users with the most eggs were the winners.

This was a small event to appreciate the mother idols in kpop.


40994

During this event users were able to pick songs and make their own playlist for a given scenario.


40992

27.05.2019 - 02.06.2019: Suggestions
03.06.2019 - 07.06.2019: Voting
During this event users had to create their dream duo and suggest everything from concept to name, style and debut song.


40993

06.06.2019 - 11.06.2019
Users had to answer different kpop related questions to earn points.

Happy Anniversay KS, it's been half a year since I joined this the best kpop forum in the world n it's been great fun.
The staff n users r so awesome n even tho I may be KS' greatest lurker (who still posts a lot smh), I've enjoyed interacting/reading/
stalkingbrowsing so many interesting threads/conversation with so many great KS members starting w/Miyeon, notthatmarko (who really rubbed me irritated me the wrong way at first, maybe cos I dint get his snarky way then.) also bulletproof, goyo, Reo, RainbowDevil ok I'll stop here cos there's too many users in just six mths. I've loved every second of being part of KS community in my own limited way. N learned from the users here abt more great kpop ggs tat I wouldn't hv anywhere else.
Here's to KS' 1st anniversary n many more to come in the future.
