There is a trend in social media platforms called “What song are you listening to?” As it seems, it is quite a simple challenge. A host asks random people the question above in certain places, such as a city, a campus, or a building. It has gone viral because the host asks absolute strangers with no idea if the stranger would talk to them, which is interesting. The UOS Times decided to ask this question to the students in the University of Seoul (UOS) campus.
