Does anyone else feel like some newer K-pop groups go heavy on ‘emotion’ but it doesn’t always land?

I listened to a debut track that felt super earnest and emotional — almost cinematic. Made me wonder if this emotional route works or feels forced for rookies. Thoughts? Cuz I’ve seen a few groups debut lately with concepts leaning more into ballad/rock, very 'sentimental' type vibes — not the usual EDM or dance-heavy stuff. Is that too niche to stand out in 2025? submitted by /u/CitySquare132 [link] [comments]

4.437. ARrC has to be one of the highlights of 5th gen BGs

  • reddit.com language

I preface this by saying that my ult group is Billlie, and both groups are under Mystic Story, so i withheld my comments for the most part on the first couple releases because I wanted to make sure it wasn't just me wanted them to be great for the sake of being the "younger brothers" of my ults. They just released an EP today called HOPE, and once again, every song on it is straight gas 🔥 I loved every song they'd released before it, but i really was trying to temper my expectations and my biases, but damn... they haven't missed at all in my book, not once. If you haven't listened to any ARrC, please go check some of their songs out, the quality is qualitying 🤌 submitted by /u/WhoaShenanigans [link] [comments]

  • 1 month ago schedule
  • reddit.com language

Unpopular opinion I think…I LOVE the weekly favorite visual posts on the sub but sorry if this is repetitive will delete if you guys tell me I promise :) Anyways since I was a kid I LOVED fairys/faes its my hyperfixation my favorite creature EVER like it was my birthday theme for 9 years straight not even joking. So anyways my question is which idol radiates fairy/faerie vibes like is straight up ethereal something ethereal its breathtaking and you can just say they are a pretty fairy/faerie how ever you classify im not going to talk about the history or fairys vs faes and all that stuff we will be here for years but anyways if you want give your best picture that represents it and something even more fun give them fairy/fae names( hope that isnt bad im not aiming to change or disrespect their name just a fun little thing to do )SO EXCITING .:) Mine is mai from izna which gave me the inspo to post this .shes so pretty her fairy name would be maieina not changing her name but adding a fairy touch:) submitted by /u/Ambitious_Leg_734 [link] [comments]

4.441. it’s not criticism. it’s just obsessive. weird.

  • 1 month ago schedule
  • reddit.com language

lately the talk has been about snark subs and i wanna say something too. this is my opinion, sure, but honestly, it shouldn’t even have to be said. it should just be the standard. I get the original idea behind them. sometimes things are cringey or overhyped and people want a space to talk freely. cool, whatever. but somewhere along the way, it stopped being about criticism and just turned into straight up hate. like body shaming, slut shaming, ED jokes, dragging people’s faces, energy for literally existing… y’all okay? not trying to be dramatic but some posts actually make me feel sick. and it’s not just one sub anymore. i’m starting to see more and more places slip into that same vibe. and the weirdest part is how personal people make it, like these idols hurt them directly or something. they don’t know you. they’re not thinking about you. they’re living their lives. and you’re sitting there writing essays about how much you hate them? kinda embarrassing honestly. like yeah, there are artists i don’t like either. not everyone’s my vibe. but i don’t make it my whole personality. i just keep scrolling. it’s not that deep. obviously, if someone’s done something actually bad, i get the criticism. but hating someone because they’re popular or wear a certain outfit or smile a certain way? please be serious. none of this is helping anyone. it’s not even fun to read anymore. it just feels… heavy. weird. sad. and a little too parasocial from the other side. maybe go outside. touch some grass. pick up a hobby. support artists you actually like. because this constant cycle of hate? yeah. not it. submitted by /u/Traditional_Rain9724 [link] [comments]

4.444. Most successful companies on the Produce/Planet series by number of debuting trainees so far (pre-Boys II Planet)

  • 1 month ago schedule
  • reddit.com language

Or, which companies have had the largest number of trainees make it to the debuting group of the Produce/Planet survival shows? Which idols came from the same company? Boys II Planet is airing tomorrow, so I thought I'd post this before it changes in a few weeks!! + I added some data comparing this list to companies sending trainees to Boys II Planet :) Please note: Some of these companies now go by different names, have moved, or no longer exist. The names used below are what was used during the airing of each show, but companies that changed names between shows are still grouped together. Like, a huge portion of these idols are now under different companies, this is not a source of where they are now. They're listed with the company they were under when they participated on their shows. This is just for fun and for the sake of simple (and hopefully interesting) data. Obviously, in no way is this an accurate measure for how successful companies are in general (especially considering rigging happened during Produce... but with that being said, higher ranked companies doesn't necessarily mean companies that rigged more votes) There's a high likelihood of mistakes being present, please don't hesitate to correct me if needed! Entertainment companies listed alphabetically if tied, trainees listed in chronological order of the show they were on -> their final ranking 1. Yuehua Entertainment - 6 trainees Choi Yena (Iz*One) - P04 Cho Seungyoun (X1) - P05 Zhang Hao (Zerobaseone) - P01 Ricky (Zerobaseone) - P04 Kim Gyuvin (Zerobaseone) - P07 Han Yujin (Zerobaseone) - P09 2.

I love designing things for people so I’ve decided to make some custom lock screens of idols for fellow stans (they will be free)! If you want one, comment with your style and favorite colors and any additional details you want to add. Then reply to yours comment with up to 4 pictures you want me to use. I will dm you to let you know it’s in the making and then again with the finished product!

  • 1 month ago schedule

AKMU is not a "traditional" kpop group, some argue that they aren't kpop at all ( Don't wanna get into all that ). Sibling duo of musical prodigies Lee Chanhyuk and Lee Suhyun who became a household name in South Korea, still are. Honestly they have so many great songs, Lee Suhyun is one of my favourite voices kpop or otherwise. submitted by /u/DiMpLe_dolL003 [link] [comments]

4.449. i wish 4th and 5th gen idols have businesses

  • 1 month ago schedule
  • reddit.com language

Since I followed Jpop last year, it's a shock to me that most rookie idols have businesses. And I'm not talking about the nugu ones that have no choice but to do side hustles---I'm talking about rich kid idols with a decent amount of popularity and fans. They even actively promoting it on their Instagram accounts. I mean, how can they have time for their business while promoting as an idol, and is also a shock that their company allowed them to do it. Too much freedom... and I wish Kpop idols could do this too. submitted by /u/Miserable_Seat_9226 [link] [comments]

Make sure to explain why you like it :) Here’s a few of my favs: VIXX’s The Scientist - Obsessed with this one right now. Incredibly clean dancing. Those constant formation changes, wow. Everyone standing out as a competent dancer. And N. Just N. He is EVERYTHING. Seventeen’s Mansae and Aju Nice - You can just tell they’re having so much fun in these. They’re a joy to watch. Vernon and Jun getting into a brief butt smacking war in Mansae (you gotta watch both Hide and Seek ver to see the full thing lmao). Pentagon’s Spring Snow, adorable goofing around and having fun, cartwheels and piggyback riding. Also Round 2 because lol. submitted by /u/Lilac-Soul [link] [comments]
