Welcome to Neon Rewind. Neon Rewind is a curated time machine archiving the golden era of the 70s, 80s, and beyond. We dig deep into the untold stories behind the artists who redefined music history, from the roots of Rock 'N' Roll to new century streams. Back in 1983, a massive wave of the 2nd British Invasion hit the global music scene. Beyond the ocean, in Seoul, South Korea—a place then isolated from global pop culture—a young boy’s radio captured the haunting melody of Culture Club’s "Do you really want to hurt me." That exact moment of awe and cultural awakening is where our journey begins. This is more than just a playlist channel. It is a personal, historical record of how a youth in South Korea lived through and cherished the global soundtrack of an era. 🌌 Subscribe to Neon Rewind and take a late-night drive back through the golden history of pop. 📬 For deeper essays and cultural stories behind the music, subscribe to our Substack (Link below).
