    This website, http://www.soompi.com is an Asian Kpop website that focuses on Articles, latest news, and shopping in and around the Asian marketplace.  In my Economics class, I work with 12th grade seniors and we study not only American economy topics, but other world regions, too.  This website was discovered when I was searching for an outlet for my KPop Dance Club dancers.  Many of my Economic students are part of this club that dances after school weekly, and goes on fieldtrips that focus on the Asian culture.  It becomes fun when students are part of social clubs or sports.  I have found that students who are involved with extracurricular activities tend to have better grades and a more positive outlook on their lives because engagement in the right direction fights off fatique and anxiety.  Soompi. com has a cool vibe and my students love the articles and music that the website highlights.  One of the features advertises some Kpop bands who are touring at venues in and around Los Angeles.  

    I would highly recommend this website to any mature middle or high school student who enjoys the Asian culture.  Students can stay on top of the latest trends and be ready to dance to their favorite music.  Shopping for Asian styles and food can be obtained through the site, too.
