I (Kenneth) was in secondary school when American Idol became a phenomenon. We would watch the show and come to class the next day, engaging in deep discussion on how the contestants fared. In fact, we’d even sing and recreate the performances of our favourite contestants in between lessons.

Such was our love for the show that after it finished its season around May each year, we felt a sense of emptiness over the next couple of weeks.
