Controversial Take: Illit 6th member

I found a good third party site that actually does a proper job compiling every new release by artists I follow, unlike anything Spotify seems to bother doing themselves. Except old Twice songs seem to be rereleased on random compilations every other week! "Vatertag Sommerhits" "Platinum Pop" "GO WITH THE FLOW - Pop" "Summer 2025 - 100 Top Songs" "Some Great Pop" "Fresh Out" "Kesä 2025" "pop pulse deluxe" And on and on and on. So frustrating. Aespa aren't quite as bad but they seem to have a bit of this too, from the groups I've added so far. At a certain level of popularity does every K-pop group do this?? submitted by /u/bravetherainbro [link] [comments]

Run to you - SEVENTEEN -An absolute 10 out of 10 for me. It reminds me on Haikyuu so much and its so yearning-anime coded. I love love it so much Orbit - The8 Ft. JinJeBeWater - Minghao is one of my most anticipated artist. He has such a unique but pleasant music taste and he has been consistent with his sound across all of his recent releases, while also experimenting. I love everything about this song, and the music video is gorgeous. ExtraL - Jennie Ft. Doechii - This song just makes you move, Doechii is amazing in it, and Jennie's raps and flow shine so well. And its just such a nice song to vibe to. This is maybe the song that made me take Jennie seriously as an artist. Stupid Idiot- HxW (Hoshi Woozi from Seventeen) - They really brought back the fun non-serious songs for me. This song is just so so good and light and goofy without being cringey. Its just two friends having fun with their music and it really comes through as such a silly goofy but incredibly well made fun song Run- BTS - I always find my way back to this song. Its so reminiscent of a scene from a climactic moment in a movie about youth and heartbreaks and its just such a good song, lyrically, musically, everything about it just works. Thunder- Seventeen- This song just works for me. I love it so much and havent been able to randomly burst into Alo Alo (Also the scoups fancams may have played a significant role in shaping this 💁‍♀️ Standing next to you- Jungkook- another banger. The instrumentals are so good and he sounds amazing. Just an overall really catchy and well-done pop song _WORLD- Seventeen- I just love me a good light fluffy Seventeen song and this is another banger. Also happens to be one of the very few choreo hook steps i can do (and the stages for this song are such a vibe to watch because they all enjoyed performing it so much) SET ME FREE- Twice - I think no one Kpops like Twice and we need to respect that. Shake It Off- Mingyu- It took me a while to let this grow on me because one of my pet peeves is lyrics mumbling which this song has throughout. But Mingyu just pulls it off and i just vibe to this so much Like Jennie- Jennie - This song convinced me to listen to the rest of the album. And it did not disappoint.

From a 1pm Friday release, to a Flo Milli feature and also an extra english version, its clear that SM is aiming for billboard. What do you think about it, and will it succeed or not? submitted by /u/KillerKingKobra [link] [comments]

Just curious about what this reddit thinks, because it's not a question that's asked often (it often focuses on songs and skills instead). submitted by /u/Lost-Investigator266 [link] [comments]

I hope this doesnt get reported. Ik katseye is popular but their traction on twitter is crazy. I saw some people saying its hybe payola but I think it's stupid that hybe would waste money on twt likes. The same goes for tintok too tbh they get crazy views and likes despite having only 7M followere compared to some groups with like 20M followers. But Twitter is insane for example: Twt of megan playing with a dog, no caption: 829K views but 84K likes(on twt its different even some mega memes dont hit 50K) This twt saying megan looks like someone: 4.8M views and 71.7K likes and the subsequent she looks like mbappe: 3M views and 132K likes The most sus thing is that their actual account and posts can barely crack 30K likes so im confused. submitted by /u/kpop-girlgroup- [link] [comments]

Every time a company reveals someone below 18 or 19 (if you're referring to Korea's definition of a minor since 18 is still a minor in Korea), people would criticise the company for allowing a child to debut and criticise the people who support underage trainees/idols. K-pop isn't the only industry that debuts minors. Child stars all around the world also exist. The entertainment industry has always debuted minors for a long time, and K-pop is no exception either. BoA, Sohyun (ex 4MINUTE), Suzy (ex Miss A), Jiyoung (KARA), Taemin (SHINee), Jisung (NCT), Jongseob (P1Harmony), Leeseo (IVE), Jiheon (fromis_9), Ni-ki (ENHYPEN), Junghwan (Treasure), Kyujin (NMIXX), and Suhyun (AKMU) are examples of idols who debuted as minors. Instead of raising the age limit to 18 or 19, we should protect underage celebrities from online harassment, sasaengs, and physical harm instead of banning minors from debuting. If you want a safe world for minors, we should stop cyberbullying them, stalking them, and hurting them physically. People are hypocrites, they say they want to shield minors from haters, stalkers, and bad people in general, but at the same time, they also do awful things to underage celebrities. If you think boycotting groups with minors is going to stop minors in K-pop from debuting, then you're wrong. No matter how much you try, it won't work. Companies dgaf whatever you say to them. Every entertainment company, including K-pop companies, would always debut minors 95% all the time. HYBE, SM, JYP, YG, and other companies also do it. Their future groups would definitely have minors. Also, many people are just jealous of celebrities who are younger than they are and are more successful than they are. Some people can't accept that people born in the late 2000s and 2010s exist. These people are not toddlers, and they have already reached puberty. You're just getting old. 2010 was 15 years ago. submitted by /u/LiminalLullaby [link] [comments]

30 Day K-Pop Challenge! Day 9: What’s your favorite song from a subunit? submitted by /u/LackOfDad [link] [comments]

yesterday (28/6/25) was the first day of kim seokjin of bts solo tour. it was heavily related to his variety show, run jin thats kind of a branch from the og show, run bts. when it was first announced, i was kinda ???? like how can u make a concert like a variety show where the attenders can be involved MORE than singing fanchants and cheering but god he proved me wrong. the way the concert started without vcr but instead just a random countdown that made armys panicked and all of them just started to wear the poncho seokjin provided (with his face on it) was so funny and suddenly he appeared on stage and said 'DOJEON!' (which is his trademark in run jin and everything wont count if he didnt say it) and he pushed a button on stage. after experiencing dday concert, hots concert and now run seokjin concert, i realised that bts really deserve the title as the biggest group in the world. they sang their heart out while engaging with everyone in the audience and also with online viewers. no one was left out. truly felt like i was there even when im cheering in my room on my bed. after he sang the opening songs, the first activity he did was connect, army (if im not mistaken) which he gave armys 3 clothing sets to choose from for him to change into for his next stage. it actually depended on how well seokjin can guess the words given to him (basically its like charades, army will act and he will guess. he literally pulled out a binoculars on stage😭) (the costume that he changed into was a taekwondo outfit he wore in ep 34 of run jin) in between of changing clothes, instead of vcr he made a karaoke session for army and the song was chosen by the roulette tht he spun before he went back stage. the second game he did was him guessing what song army sang (if he gets it wrong he will be hit by a tray) and being the angel he is, he actually purposely got the last question wrong so he got hit by the tray to make armys happy. the other thing that made me amazed was when he played the piano for two ballad songs with zero backing track. it was only the piano and his voice. so good!! i do think that he was inspired by coldplay concert (which he attended as a guest for 2 days) and im so glad he did it this way. yena being the concert guest was also a very significant moment for me. as someone who knew her since pd48, never in my life i imagine her and a bts member collabing and perform together on stage! her voice and seokjins are blended so good and the chemistry was off the roof!! the last thing i would like to point is when seokjin came off stage to let one army sing the opening of moon. the moment itself was so wholesome because the army was so nervous so she kinda slipped while singing, but instead of laughing seokjin gently encouraged her to sing again with more confidence. hobi, tae and joon going to the concert and having fun with each other also a plus for me. i just love them so much. honestly i cried like 6 times yesterday because i feel so touched, so proud and a little jealous because i didnt get to experience it first hand. there's another concert today too and i cant wait to have fun like yesterday too! this concert is so seokjin-esque and as a seokjin biased since 2016-2017, it was like a dream come true. i remember sometimes being a little disappointed when his line distribution was on the lower side but now he's having his solo concert tour. im so looking forward to upcoming bts albums and tour as ot7 too. submitted by /u/nininwa [link] [comments]

I was thinking like songs that have a bittersweet vibe to them they symbolize hope, or living life for the last time they kind of sound like a kiss off to fans. submitted by /u/TastyCookie23900 [link] [comments]

Basically idols that are so uniquely gorgeous and stunning that go beyond the uniform standard of what typical idols look like. For me it’s TXT Hueningkai. Even his full name sounds kinda “royal” like a prince’s name (Kai Kamal Huening) I understand when fans mention being so stunned by him when they meet him in person others: Twice Sana, Le sserafim Yunjin, Zb1 Zhanghao, Bts V submitted by /u/DullMaintenance8958 [link] [comments]

This is a response to antis who judge “talentless” idols and wonder why they have fans. I’ve seen a lot of comments like “Why does X have fans? They can’t dance/sing and has zero stage presence.” But what if these idols have a likable personality? What if these idols are nice to fans/everybody? What if these idols are humble and does a lot of charity work and save orphans from burning houses? I totally support idols who are good people even if they are not the most talented and I can understand why they have a fanbase. submitted by /u/taejinkook28 [link] [comments]

SM def has some of the best vocalists in Kpop, but not every member in every SM group is on that level. Just bc a group is from SM doesn’t mean every member can sing like a main vocal. Their main vocalists are one of the best, but they’re not no.1 in the industry or the best of their generation. In H.O.T., S.E.S., and Fly To The Sky, only Kangta, Bada, and Hwanhee really stood out. The others could sing, but they weren’t anything special. The only SM group where every member had strong enough vocals to be main/lead vocalists were TVXQ (OT5) and the only SM group where every member had strong enough vocals to be main vocalists is CSJH The Grace. Even then, Sohyang, Lena Park, Naul, and Ock Joohyun from Fin.K.L are more noteworthy compared to Bada or Hwanhee. Haeri (Davichi), Lee Younghyun (Big Mama), and Sandeul (B1A4) are stronger vocalists than Ryeowook, Luna, Taeyeon, Jonghyun, Onew, Junsu, Jaejoong, and Yesung. Lee Younghyun is about even with Kyuhyun, and Jung Dongha is better than him. Hyolyn (SISTAR) is better than Luna, Taeyeon, Jonghyun, Onew, Junsu, Jaejoong, and Yesung. All of Super Junior (OT15) can sing, but only three or four members really stand out (if you include KRY and Zhoumi). SNSD is a strong group vocally, but only about half are truly great singers, with Taeyeon being the clear standout. SHINee has an excellent vocal line as well, but it’s mostly Jonghyun and Onew who carry the weight. Everyone in f(x) can hold a tune, but Luna is the only one who is exceptional. Big Mama as a group is vocally stronger than TVXQ, CSJH, Super Junior, SNSD, SHINee, and f(x). Ailee, Shannon Williams, Uji (BESTie), and Dia (Kiss&Cry) are all better than Wendy. Ailee and Shannon also have stronger vocals than Chen. EXO has good vocals across the board, but only Chen, D.O., and Baekhyun are truly exceptional. Even then, Eunkwang (BTOB), Dohyuk, Uji, Dia, Shannon, and Ailee can outsing D.O. and Baekhyun. Roy Kim, Seunghwan, and Rockhyun are on a similar level with them. Seungkwan (Seventeen), Minseok (Melomance), Hweseung (N.Flying), Janghyun (Vromance), Inseong (SF9), Hyukjin (FAVE1), Jaehwan (Wanna One), Yonghoon (ONEWE), Jamie and Yerin (15&), Haena (Kiss&Cry), Solji (EXID), Solar (Mamamoo), Linzy (Fiestar), Kim Dohee/High.D (Sonamoo), Yuju (GFRIEND), Bohyung (Spica), and Sejeong (I.O.I/Gugudan) are just as good as Taeil and Doyoung and all of them are stronger vocalists than Jaehyun, Jungwoo, Chenle, Haechan, and Renjun. As full groups, Mamamoo, BTOB, Kiss&Cry, and 15& are stronger vocally than Red Velvet, NCT 127, and NCT DREAM. Parc Jaejung (MSG Wannabe), Minwook (Newkidd), Mingyu (DKZ), KCM (MSG Wannabe), and Teo (DKB) are stronger than Xiaojun. Lee Mujin, Jongho (ATEEZ), Woobin (Cravity), Jooyeon (Xdinary Heroes), Jaeyun (TO1), and Junhyeok (TNX) are about equal to Xiaojun in terms of vocal skill. Nayul and Yerim (12dal), Lily and Haewon (NMIXX), Jungwoo (BVNDIT), and Swan (CRAXY) all have better vocals than Ningning. Seungeon (EVNNE) is better than Jaehee, and Taerae (ZB1) is right up there with him. In fact, Taerae has stronger vocals than Sohee. Jaehee is arguably the second strongest vocalist in 5th gen after Seungeon. Sohee is in top 5. As for H2H, I need to wait for a few months before I can comment. I'm tired of Pink Bloods constantly trying to downplay amazing vocalists that aren't from SM. It's true that SM has the best vocals among the Big 4 but that doesn’t mean they are the best in the entire industry. There are idols that are from mid sized or small companies/lesser known idols that are better than them. Pink Bloods on Reddit don't want to admit that NMIXX is better than Aespa in terms of vocals. submitted by /u/__beryl [link] [comments]
