On November 15th, KpopStarz passed the million mark on the Facebook page.  Over the last few weeks, our Facebook followers have grown approximately 3% week on week.  This is proof that more of our readers are turning to us the primary source of K-pop news and entertainment on Facebook. 

At KpopStarz, we celebrate accomplishments like these with our heartfelt gratitude.  As more of you are choosing us to be one of your core providers of K-pop news, we spend some time to take in what this all mean.  And to us, it means we need to work harder to deliver you K-pop news and editorial content in as timely as possible.  And of course, we take time to thank all of you for giving us your time and support.

Nearly a year ago, our KpopStarz offices in New York was hit hard by Hurricane Sandy, and nearly stopped our operations then.  Today, we continue to bring you your much-awaited K-pop and entertainment stories. Since then,  we didn't only recover from the near-fatal blow to our operations, but also we have risen to be the #1 provider of K-pop news (according to audience measurement provider Quantcast).  We couldn't have achieved that without you.

To celebrate the 1MM milestone, here are our stats in our celebratory week:

-Number of people interacting on all our posts per week: 250K

-Countries from which the most active people are from: Philippines, Indonesia, Malaysia, Vietnam, Thailand, Mexico, United States, Peru, Myanmar, Korea

-And our top stories based on Facebook interactions:
