Y Campus Express is a 3-hour show specifically made for the students. On YCE, they get to keep up with what’s happening on all the campuses in the country and are updated on brand new music, latest trends and cheats codes on how to survive the semester.

Here is a breakdown of segments on YCE.

History

Pop Central was introduced in 2018 to celebrate 10 years of YFM, born out of the growing popularity of Korean Pop globally and a plea from KPOP fans in Ghana, especially fans of KPOP group EXO, to hear their favourite Korean songs on the radio.

Pop Central began airing on the 4th of November 2018 as Pop Up. In preparation for its first episode, the show set a record with its first Twitter poll accumulating about 102,000 votes, over 12,000 retweets and 7,000 likes in 24 hours.

Segment

Pop Central is known for its “KPOP TOP 12” playlist which sees 12 Korean Pop songs played based on Twitter polls or requests.
