January 2026 Schedule
🕑 Added 2026-01-02 22:45:58 +0000 UTCHappy New Year everyone! Here’s the schedule drop for January 2026.
Kulture Study & Bonus Drops are back.
After a break in December, when comebacks and debuts virtually slow, we’re back with more Kulture Study videos this month and hoo boy we’ve got Apink, DK x SEUNGKWAN, ALPHA DRIVE ONE, and much more already on the horizon for this month. So stay tuned!
AWARD SHOW REACTIONS
Since I can’t control what award shows release what videos when it caused a bit of a mix up in the December schedule. People were asking where certain award show reactions were, but they had not even aired because broadcasting stations did the Japan ones weird. So to clear any mix up I’m just reserving Tuesdays as “award show reactions” and I’ll just be checking out what is out and available at the time!
FLAGSHIP GIRL GROUP SERIES?
It’s been a few months since our last poll so I’ll be running polls again for our flagship girl group series which will premiere in February. The question will be: GG variety or SWF? Boy group survival shows will be ending in February, and I need a break from survival shows, so I’ll be going back to boy group variety for a bit. SWF I assume is not a “survival show” in the typical idol group sense so I don’t have issues with it; just want to gauge what our general audience here would like.
PATREON TIER changes in February.
So I tried something in 2024 ~ 2025 and it apparently only greatly confused new Patrons coming in. And now with livestreams and movie clubs, discord perks in our rotation, I’ll be updating our tiers.
DRAMA & ANIME CLUB FIRST tiers will be eliminated. I have been signaling since last summer that these tiers will be eliminated at the end of the year, and so this is your 30 day advance notice!
There are two few people in this tier to keep them active and it only adds to the confusion. K-POP FIRST tier will stay but tier perks will be re-clarified and all the tiers will be rebranded to make the separation much more distinct.
I’ll be going back to my old system of just FOUR core tiers which seemed to cause less confusion.
SPRING (formerly K-POP FIRST)
SUMMER (formerly GROUPY)
AUTUMN (formerly GROUPY+)
WINTER (formerly GROUPY FIRST)
Full breakdowns and explanations of tiers will be coming out in its own post at the end of January. This will really only affect FIRST tiers, and for other tiers the only thing changing is the name of your tier.
NEW ANIME & DRAMA CLUB
With our Haikyu!! journey officially wrapping up with the movie, we will be taking suggestions for new anime series to replace it (do not leave suggestions on this post, a separate post will be made) and subsequently, a poll will be held for it.
Same goes for Drama Club! With the end of Alice In Borderland Season 3 we’re going to need a new series to take over so a suggestion post and a separate poll will take place this month as well!
Looking forward to all of your suggestions…!
FINAL THOUGHTS
Mmmm 2026 is going to be a very important year for me. I’ve made a lot of personal life decisions, some of which is private and some of which I will share later on. But the past two years have felt like a hibernation to re-tool, re-wire, heal and evolve myself.
I’m still not perfect, but I have spent the past 6 months taking steps to foster more of a community on this Patreon, something I’ve been wanting to do a while, and this next year I’ll be taking even bigger and bolder steps for my work, career, and dreams.
I will greet you separately about all this later in podcast form, but for now I just want to encourage you all a wonderful new year. I mean that more than I’ve ever meant it.
“Happy new year” is just a phrase people say but this year truly feels like a refreshing step forward for me. I feel the most whole I’ve ever felt, and I am finally ready to become the best version of myself. I extend that same pool of vitalizing mana unto the rest of you as well.
May this year be yours to claim.
Let’s be happy :)

PD, Seungkwan has his own MC show on YouTube now and for the first episode he had Lee Know on it. I really loved seeing their chemistry together so hoping you could check it out 🥺

Hey PD! If you have time, you should look into the video teasers for ENHYPEN's upcoming comeback The Sin:Vanish (January 16th!). Kind of like how they've had concept trailers in the past, this time they've split them up into four chapters that also act kind of like a highlight medley of sorts since you hear snippets of some of the songs. Each one is only about 2 minutes long, and there are these really cool / creepy short interludes that go along with them too. The sounds, the styling, the visuals, and overall production is all such a treat. They've been doing a lot for this comeback, and the commitment to storytelling makes me really excited to hear the EP. I think if you eventually do a listening party for the EP, this could help add some context and hype to the story!

Haechan had one live stage for "CRZY" for one of the Year End 'Award' Shows (KBS). It was a short performance of "Talented" and then "CRZY". But he also had a full special performance video of "Talented" before then, too.

Happy new year everyone! Also, PD, I do have to say that your efforts to foster more of a community on here have not gone unnoticed. I've been lurking on this Patreon on and off for a few years now, and the difference is kinda crazy. Been loving the changes, even though I'm not super active in the chats and whatnot 🙂↕️
maria_yah
SAME! I didn't even notice it on the schedule before seeing your comment and now I'm stoked!
Aine
Yes! Both EPs were amazing ❤️
Beth LaRue
Happy New Year. Another group with a January comeback is Enhypen on the 16th.

Taxi driver yess!! Im so excited for this journey!!
hypr
nmixx variety!
Candice Gde
Happy new year PD :) wishing you the very best! I am a bit confused about when posts unlock for which tier (for example I am waiting for Business proposal ep10 to unlock for me), I hope these changes will clear things up :) English is also not my first language so that might be why!
atlas
selfishly hoping for the return of some bg variety 🤞 happy new year!!
atlas
i cant hold pack my nitpickiness im so sorry but technically runext actually won the second poll with a tiny margin (practically a tie) and the first round was a tie so PD just chose SWF. I don’t think the timing or the survival show itself was ever considered a hard guarantee, I think it was mostly gauging interest
Alex
can't wait!!!
km
happy new year pd! as a long time patreon subscriber, your growth in the last few years was lovely to witness! obviously there will always be bumps along the way but i’ve definitely noticed a positive change on here, especially with interaction with the community through things like the chat channels. Here’s to a great new year and i hope you enjoy a restful and healthy start to 2026!
Chris Walker
Exo variety content or old album/concert reactions would go crazy :)
billie27
I'm a bit confused.. SWF was officially announced to start in January a couple month ago... and now it is pushed back eventually to February if people want it over GG variety ?? Thats not really fair.. What was the point of doing TWO polls to vote for SWF then 😫

TAXI DRIVER
terry
SWF
