Perhaps not the most insightful comment, but I was always like "Why did the name 'K-Pop' stick when 'Seoul Music' is right there?"

Super funny written, just confusing spoken. (Unless you're not the one being confusing or confused; then I could definitely imagine this getting padded into a "Who's on first"-quality bit)
