00:00Hi Playlist fam, I'm Joshua Kim and this is Playlist Slambook.

00:09My name is Joshua Kyle Sun Myung Chu Kim. My father gave me that name, I'm part Korean,

00:15or you can call me Kim Sun Myung. My nickname, some people call me Joshua,

00:19some people call me JKM, your choice. My interests are music, of course, and on the

00:25side I am a software engineer, and it's kind of weird to say, but yeah. I also do rock climbing

00:32and badminton. So my songs are more of everyday struggles. If ever you felt lonely, if ever you

00:41lost your motivation, or you got burned out from recs, from work, my songs are for you.

00:47To go easy on yourself and love yourself, even if it's just a little. My favorite genres are

00:53very wide. My taste ranges from IU, K-pop, Twice, to Kendrick Lamar and Eminem. So take your pick.

01:03I also like jazz, funk, I love Laurence, John Bellion. My favorite artists, I would have to say,

01:09are Jason Mraz, John Mayer, and Sara Bareilles. So sila yung pinaka influence ko over the past

01:16years. Songs about positivity, about loving life, about making the most of every moment.

01:22Ang go-to karaoke song ko, Thanks for the Memories by Fall Out Boy. So, you know, I like to do pop,

01:28but sometimes I like to rock out just a little bit. Pero medyo napapaos ako. When I'm happy,

01:33I sing. When I'm sad, I also sing. One thing people don't know about me is that I am Korean,

01:40Chinese, Filipino, American. So a little bit of, a little bit of everything. Some people call me

01:46United Nations. It's okay. Yeah. And so if you enjoy K-pop and you enjoy OPM, maybe I'm the

01:53artist for you. Who knows? If I wasn't in the music scene, I would be a programmer. I do AI

02:00programming on the side. So I don't know, take your pick, programming or music. Thanks, Playlist

02:05fam. Please don't forget to follow me on TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, at Joshua Kim Music.

02:12So I'll see you guys there and hope you hear more of my music. And for more OPM
