Amanda Brennan, head of content insights and socials at Tumblr said in a statement to Billboard: "Tumblr has been dedicated to acknowledging our K-pop community since our first Year in Review in December 2013. We've chosen to branch out with an official hub to celebrate all things K-pop now as we've seen K-pop fandom become part of more people's daily lives. We want to recognize these fandoms and this community by operating a home base to highlight the best of the best in the community."
