Some days are absolutely hectic and require an enormous amount of willpower to get through. On these days, we look forward to the laidback afternoons or quiet nights in the comfort of our own home. This personal time could be spent with one of our favorite books and some comforting tunes that keep us warm inside and out.
Welcome back to another edition of Kpopmap Mood Playlist. Through this series, we put together a playlist of songs across various genres including K-Pop, K-Indie/Hip-Hop/R&B/Rock, ballads, and so much more. These songs are specially arranged according to a specific mood. We hope to introduce a wide range of artists and genres for your listening pleasure, no matter what mood you might be in.

This week's Mood Playlist is dedicated to anyone looking to get away from the heavy stresses of reality and dive into the plot of a riveting, new book. While we can always read in silence, sometimes music is required to put us in the perfect mood and set the atmosphere for prime reading conditions. Then, when these qualifications are met, we can fully immerse ourselves into the story unfolding in our hands.
