Spotify Launches Free Tier in South Korea, Unlocking K-Pop for All

Published

on


Spotify is removing barriers for South Koreans to access unlimited music from BLACKPINK, BTS, and more by launching a free tier in the country. Previously, only the Premium subscription was available since Spotify’s South Korean debut in 2021. Now, users in South Korea, the world’s seventh-largest music market, can enjoy the ad-supported free tier.

Spotify’s free service offers unlimited music streaming, though ads will play between songs, and some features, like audiobook access, remain exclusive to Premium. Spotify’s General Manager for Asia Pacific, Gautam Talwar, highlighted the potential for increased audience reach and artist revenue through this launch.

K-Pop’s popularity on Spotify has skyrocketed, with the ‘K-Pop ON!’ hub growing by 5,600% since 2015. While some advocate ending free streaming, Spotify continues to believe that it helps convert users to paid subscriptions.

‘Dating Doesn’t Mean I’ll Cook for You’ — Simi Sanya

Published

Nigerian influencer and media personality Simi Sanya has made headlines after sharing her views on cooking for your partner.

She stated that just because a woman is in a relationship with a man does not mean she has to prepare his meals.

“You can’t tell me to come to your house over the weekend and be cooking for you because we’re in a relationship. Was that the plan? No? Didn’t I tell you before?”

She then used her marriage as an example, sharing that she doesn’t stress herself in marriage. She said she sometimes cooks spaghetti or yam and eggs for her husband, and he does not complain.

She added that people do not have to stick to traditional relationship roles for a modern relationship to work.
