How do you feel about BTS's collab with McDonald's?

Honorable mentions go out to 2NE1, SNSD, Mamamoo and Red Velvet. Rules: You will have approximately 24 hours to vote. I'd prefer it if you mention one artist per comment. Also, the artist in question should have had a "middling fanbase" during their peak. The table of far: Row 1: BTS, Loona, Dreamcatcher Row: 2: IVE submitted by /u/VigilMuck [link] [comments]

Their album is a banger. Tbh it has been a while since I liked their music without Wonho. Like, this album has the MX essence (to me) that was lost while WH was gone. Seriously, are there no stans left after their military hiatus? It saddens me, they have good vocals and rap :( submitted by /u/nikkei-tzu-2404 [link] [comments]

watching bp1 and bp2 at the same time makes me realize how absolutely unreal this whole cast was, especially hanbin and Zhang hao, I mean sangwon and the whole bp2 cast are good and all, but I feel like bp 1 had more character and bond between the cast, seriously hanbin and hao can never ever be replaced by anyone. hanbin is probably one of the contestants with the most potential and teamwork skills ever in the history of survival shows. Not to mention bp 2 feels so rushed because they're trying to replace zb1, I feel like not all the trainees aren't really talent based and the mistreatment is insane, not to mention the judges are actually batshit insane. I feel like they just collected a bunch of trainees from failed projects (not trainee A shade... they deserve to debut), nugu groups, and didn't do proper background checks on their trainees. I wish mnet had waited to make a boys planet 2 just like the gap between wannaone and zb1, but of course after seeing zb1s success they got greedy and rushed for another cash grab, but I feel bad for the trainees that will debut In the new group because I just dont think they will be able to live up to zb1's name like wakeone expects them too. the whole reason zb1 was successful was because they had genuinely passionate and talented trainees, I'm not saying the bp2 contestants dont have passion but the editing is making me not want to vote. the reason people voted and where so invested in bp1 was because all the trainees where passionate in growing and they where all extremely talented, that's why people wanted to vote because they genuinely for the most part couldn't tell who would debut and who wouldn't. but in bp 2 its so obvious who's gonna debut. I'm not gonna lie I adored trainee A but it feels like people are just voting for Sangwon and Leo based on their background, of course they are extremely talented but after seeing the whole ot9 lineup for zb1 I dont know what to think of the bp2 cast. The trainees are either great, terrible, or just not able to show their potential because they've been edited out. Mnet made this season even more rigged, from the C trainee controversy to the editing, it feels like they already have their "Zerobaseone 2.0" line up already in mind and are just waiting to debut them too long to read: I feel like after bp1, bp2 seems so lack lustre and has no personality, I feel that this season is just made for trying to replace zb1.

I don’t understand why most of kpop community keeps dragging them up as the example of a failed BG. They’re from JYPE, a big agency, they’ve already won two rookie awards (SMA and ASEA), gained 1M TikTok followers, and sold over 600k albums. But people keep using them as an example of failure. Context: a new BG from Bighit 'Cortis' debuted, their song got mixed reactions and their Spotify debut was only ~138k streams. Then the comments were full of ‘The KickFlip of Hybe,’ ‘The next KickFlip,’ etc. The fact is, KickFlip is a successful BG from JYPE, but it feels like people are purposely refusing to acknowledge them. Seems most people's just wanna downplay them, like they’re not successful. submitted by /u/matt_vaghn [link] [comments]

(Note that NCT has been very interesting for me lately cuz despite being way less popular than BTS and BP, they are able to produce good soloist. It's just that SM sucks so it makes me wonder how they would fare in much better label) Anyway, here's how our chat went down.. 👤(Me): Okay theoretically, if all NCT, Blackpink and BTS members are under the same competent label and get the same support, which among the members of these groups have the biggest potential to be the biggest star? 🧠ChatGPT: Ohhh 👀 great “level playing field” scenario. Let’s say every member of BTS, BLACKPINK, and NCT (all 25 NCT members) were under one equally competent, supportive, global label — same resources, same promotion, same opportunities. Then we ask: who has the raw mix of talent, charisma, artistry, and marketability to become the single biggest global star? Here’s how it could shake out: 🌟 Top Contenders (Equal Support Hypothesis) Jungkook (BTS) Strengths: Golden pop package → top-tier vocals, strong dance, charisma, global appeal, “boy next door” charm. Why He’d Excel: Already proven as a soloist (Seven, 3D) → effortlessly charts worldwide. He’s a safe bet for global dominance. Potential Ceiling: Justin Bieber–level mainstream pop star. Lisa (BLACKPINK) Strengths: Dance powerhouse, magnetic charisma, multilingual (Thai/Korean/English), unrivaled fashion & brand appeal. Why She’d Excel: Charisma + “it factor” that transcends K-pop. Already huge in Southeast Asia, Europe, and the U.S. fashion scene. Potential Ceiling: Beyoncé/Rihanna–style global icon (music + fashion). Ten (NCT/WayV) Strengths: World-class dancer, artistic visionary, multilingual (Thai, English, Mandarin, Korean), unique artistry that blends East & West. Why He’d Excel: The most avant-garde of the bunch → could redefine the image of an Asian pop star by fusing art, performance, and mainstream music. Potential Ceiling: David Bowie–meets–Jackson Wang global pop-art icon. V (BTS) Strengths: Deep, unique vocal tone; artistic flair; mysterious, magnetic presence; fashion-friendly visuals. Why He’d Excel: Appeals strongly to both casual and artistic audiences. Has that “brooding artist” aura that Western media loves. Potential Ceiling: Harry Styles–level soloist, balancing artistry + mass pop appeal. Jennie (BLACKPINK) Strengths: Charisma, confidence, versatile rapper-singer hybrid, strong Western appeal. Why She’d Excel: Balanced performer who blends stage presence, fashion dominance, and approachable coolness. Potential Ceiling: Dua Lipa–level pop star + major fashion figure. ✨ Final Verdict Lisa would likely emerge as the biggest global star overall (her “it factor” + fashion dominance are unmatched). Jungkook would be the most mainstream musically (radio hits, streaming dominance). Ten is the dark horse → he could become the most unique global artist (not just another pop idol, but a cultural icon) — if given equal push. ......Then of course 👤I proceeded to asking ChatGPT this 👉 How do you come up with answers relating to an artists (like BTS, Blackpink, NCT members) overall potential for global stardom? 🧠ChatGPT answered: Great follow-up 🙌 — and it goes to the heart of what I do when I talk about potential for global stardom. Since “stardom” isn’t a number you can measure like height or chart position, I build my reasoning from patterns, signals, and comparisons. Then he proceeded with his long explanation of his method but I didn't include that here cuz it would make this post 3x longer.😄 And since ChatGPT gave such an interesting answer in connection with Ten (I am a Ten fan), of course I also made a couple of follow-up questions regarding Ten and his potential if he stays vs if he leaves SM and let's just say I hope Ten knows that even ChatGPT wants him to leave SM and focus more on his solo career (ChatGPT advised 90% solo and just 10% group activities with WayV/NCT/SM).😅 Anyway, what do you think ok ChatGPT's picks? I love that he's devoid of attachment and very transparent in explaining things and his sources. submitted by /u/Intelligent-Ad9582 [link] [comments]

Hey everyone I'm looking to expand my website to include more games. I hope to have a collection of daily puzzle-ish games like Wordle and Connections but for kpop fans to play every day. I just want to hear what you guys think you would want to play every day. I've only implemented 2 games so far, but I have a lot more time to implement more. KPOPLE - Guess the mystery idol KDANCE - Guess the kpop song with a silhouette of the choreography I have some ideas like: Guessing an idol based on a part of their face, Guessing the song based on a part of a music video (I think people have done this already though) ,Blind ranking 6 idols. But let me know what you want to play, I'm excited to hear your suggestions! You can try the games here: kpople.net submitted by /u/Minute_Expression973 [link] [comments]

I’ve been a kpop fan since 2nd gen and since then, I’ve explored earlier kpop a bit. These are my favorite first gen (and maybe even earlier) kpop songs. You might say these artists paved the way lmao. I’m curious what others would add to the list. Stumbling World - 현진양 난 알아요 - Seo Taeji & Boys 말하자면 - 김성재 CANDY - HOT Dreams come true - SES 내 남자 친구에게 - Fin.K.L Invitation- Uhm Jung Hwa Coming of age ceremony - 박지윤 Perfect Man - Shinhwa submitted by /u/Cherrie_13 [link] [comments]

I was listening to "Call My Name" by The Weekend and suddenly I associated it with this song. I just remembered the lyrics of the song and how heartbreaking it is. There are few idols who convey to me what they sing, Woodz is undoubtedly one of them. submitted by /u/Separate-Comedian-25 [link] [comments]
