Ever since stepping in the Quebec City Citadelles locker room, Demir Bellona quickly figured out that he and Song Ju-Gong would become friends. The adjustment to the foreign environment could've been scary but both players bonded over their love of Kpop. Since being drafted first overall, Demir Bellona had the privileges of setting up the pre-game playlist in the locker room. The idea was simple, to craft a great sounding Kpop playlist from the two most popular groups in Korea while trying to pump up the team. It's pretty obvious by looking at the song titles that the recurring theme was to build up this invincible aura around the team that hasn't wavered since the beginning of the season. There might only be a single player on the team that can understand the lyrics, but so far there hasn't been any complaints about the song choices.
1. Twice - Set Me Free
2. Twice - Perfect World
3. BTS - Mic Drop
4. BTS - We are Bulletproof: The Eternal
5. BTS - Not Today
