HAPPY TIMES! #5: Trevor’s Wota Awakening and Fire Syndrome Frenzy

Jeff Krueger

In this fun episode of Happy Times, Trevor realizes he’s a full-on “wota” (idol superfan) obsessed with AKB-48’s Mayuyu. Jeff and Trevor dive into otaku culture, exploring the “Top 10 Types of Otaku” and the quirky world of idols. Trevor hilariously shares how his simple life turned into a fandom frenzy, thanks to Tokyo’s marriage app, “Tokyo Futari Story.” Expect laughs, J-pop vs. K-pop talk, and a look at Trevor’s struggle with Korean Fire Syndrome (Hwa-Byung), all packed with Japanese pop culture madness!
