INTRO TO K-POP: "In 2010, I was at my oldest brother's home when I found SHINee's 'Hello' music video on YouTube," Medeiros said. "I got addicted to it right away. My earliest K-Pop memory is probably the first time I saw G-Dragon's 'Heartbreaker' music video, I remember that I didn't like him at all. I was so blind back then."

WHAT MOST PEOPLE DON'T UNDERSTAND ABOUT K-POP: "I think that they don't understand the work that our idols went through to prepare for their debut," she said. "The Korean groups that don't succeed make me sad, because all of them trained for years."

FAVORITE BAND: B.A.P

WHY B.A.P: "They debuted two years ago and they can still always amaze me," Medeiros said. "Their songs always have a message that the members want to spread around the world. When I listen to their songs I feel I can forget about all the problems around me. It feels like it's just me and their music. That's why I love them."

FAVORITE B.A.P SONG: "One Shot"

WHY: "This song is about not missing our only shot to do what makes us happy, about not giving up when even the world turns its back on us," she said. "We have to seize the opportunity to do what we really want to. We can't bow to those who are against us. We have to fight for what we want right now because you might not get a second chance."

FAVORITE SOLO ARTIST: G-Dragon of Big Bang

WHY G-DRAGON: "As I said before, I was so blind back in 2010!" Medeiros said. "After SHINee, I started to listen to Big Bang. The first song I got into was 'Tonight.' When I saw who the leader was, I was like 'no way.' After that, I fell in love with Big Bang and started to listen to all of [Big Bang frontman] G-Dragon's songs. Today he is my idol, my number one idol. The way he produces music, it's just amazing, incredible. He's a true genius. I really love his work, so much that I don't even know what to say."

FAVORITE G-DRAGON SONG: "Such a hard question," she said. "I love all his songs, but if I had to choose one, I'd probably choose 'That XX' or 'Who You?' Don't do this to me. I really have a lot of favorites when it comes to G-Dragon."

K-POP FUTURE STARS: "K-pop fans should keep an eye on Bangtan Boys (BTS) and Topp Dogg because I think that they have a lot of great music up their sleeve. They really deserve our respect because what they do is awesome. BTS hasn't even lost their underground touch, which I love. I also think that fans should listen to M.I.B."
