IU Releases “You & I” Music Video
http://www.soompi.com/news/iu-releases-you-i-music-video

I know this is not really K-pop news, but I just read it and I wanted to share it. It's incredibly how advanced Asia is. In Asia are things that, at least in my country, we only dream of, or see in sci-fi movies.

This is an article about a new kind of robot created in the Phillippines to teach South Korean students English. You should read it, it's really interesting, or at least I thought so.
