Welcome to our first full episode of HALA chat!

Each week we attempt to discuss the latest in ATEEZ happenings but mostly go on a series of wild tangents we make a valiant effort to bring together in the end. If you're not a kpop fan and somehow stumbled into this podcast, ATEEZ is an 8 member boy group from South Korea. Their fans are called atiny, and we are atiny.

Things we chat about today: individual Instagrams have arrived, atiny complain again, pro-chestnut leanings, the glory of Mawazine, Jongho wearing a full sail, ATEEZ fanservice, gate-keeping our small company origins
