'Mirotic' is a newly coined Korean term meaning 'forever trapped in a maze, a feeling of being wrapped in love with no way out'. This word summarizes nicely how good music makes you feel, and South Korea has some of the most unique and catchy hip-hop, R&B, electro and pop music in the world. This blog's purpose is to introduce that music to the lovers of these genres who do not yet know South Korean style.
