After 2022 it's gotten virtually impossible for smaller ggs to hit it big

ADP replaced KIOF at Kcon and we know what the driving force behind their removal was. Last week or the week before that Tarzzan got exposed for saying the N word and he hasn’t issued an apology, his label hasn’t acknowledged it and I see a lot of Redditors defending him. Compare this to how KIOF was treated, they even apologised multiple times. Tarzzan seems untouchable and unscathed, why is that? Is it Annie Moon’s money and influence or is it classic misogyny. Before anyone says “but it’s different” yeah you’re right, 1 livestream vs someone who’s been appropriating black culture since he debuted. It is very different and he seems to be getting away with it. He even turned up to kcon LA in corn rows . submitted by /u/DumbDumb1000 [link] [comments]

Kpop is selling a fantasy of perfection and yes that includes looks. They're literally called idols. There's plenty of music out there for people that don't care about visuals. I love kpop but I'm not delusional that my favs all got their jobs because they have the most talent, especially not when it comes to vocals. I'm not defending toxicity, I was raised that if you have nothing nice to say then you shouldn't say anything at all, but if all you care about is music and dance there's plenty of other avenues for you to pursue those interests. submitted by /u/tyrico [link] [comments]

Maybe I just have been paying attention to kpop socials last year or the years before, but it feels like damn near every group is having a tour this year. I've seen some people speculate that because BTS might be touring next year that labels wanted to hurry up and get their tours out before they get overshadowed, but I don't think it's that simple. Were these tours just overdue anyway ? submitted by /u/MochaMilku [link] [comments]

Like the title said so basicly the only Korean about KPop is the industry and the groups is based in korea because let's be real here their training system come from Motown record a label that created the Jackson 5 and their Idol system come from jpop idol industry. there's nothing from KPop that uniquely them its all taking influences from other country entertainment industries most spesificly those 2 that i mentioned before. submitted by /u/Icy-Bass724 [link] [comments]

I know size order is more visually appealing, but the nagging feeling of the albums of different groups and eras all over the place is slightly hurting my mental health 🫠 submitted by /u/WilliamVII [link] [comments]

I've been thinking about how a lot of new groups lack formal greetings (i.e. "One in a Million! Hi, we are TWICE!" or "Connect! Hi, we are ENHYPEN"). So, I tried to come up with some for new 5th generation groups. "Dusk to Dawn! Hi, we are All Day Project!" "Get up! Hi, we are RIIZE!" "Knock, Knock! It's BOYNEXTDOOR!" I would love to hear if you guys have any other ones that you've come up with for groups without greetings! submitted by /u/corn-in-a-can [link] [comments]

I keep getting video after video on my feed talking about their Golden performance,and dang people are being hella rude. im just gonna preface this by saying i dont stan them, and have barely interacted with any of their content I really just cant stand the hate toward these young girls. People were complaining about their lipsyncing and many comments people were making were "if u cant sing as an idol, then dont be an idol", "whyd choose a song they cant sing", "theyre just dancers atp", and other rude remarks. While to an extent this is true, because as an idol, yes, you should be able to sing live. These girls (to my knowlegde) are ROOKIES. I hughly doubt theur company allowed them to a) choose what song they wanted to sing, and b) choose to sing live or not. I fear this is just peopke trying to create a hate train for a new gg. The hate for Illit, Sserafim, and Itzy is dying down and now they need a new victim. It just hurts me to see how these girls are being treated for decisions they most likely didnt make.

It's such a good song, vocals are amazing and the girls look absolutely beautiful. The song itself is such a banger, it sounds nostalgic even. Please give more love to artms. submitted by /u/AdEmbarrassed3205 [link] [comments]

The first group I was introduced to was BTS, and that was my first (and for a while, only) ult group. Five years later I have many ult groups and I’m doing the teaching. I’ve been getting my friends into Xikers, it feels like a torch was passed (or I’m returning the favor since they taught me some as well). 🥹 submitted by /u/CeCeAlexus [link] [comments]
