Transcript excerpt

I thought Kordes was the first all Asian K pop group. The first time they showed up on my free page, I was like, what the fuck? They made a K pop group around the concept of being a Asian? And then I did some deep digging, and no. They're literally all, like, ethnically Asian. I feel like this is worst iCarly cast.
