Hyunah’s instagram caption is so disturbing but it’s also the reality of ED culture in korea

Mind you, this was released back in April 2023. In the midst of all the fame Golden is getting, the #1 streaks that don't stop, there is an anomaly of a song that keeps charting for over a year now. It's been on Melon weekly top 10 for about 40 weeks now. It holds the record as the #1 longest charting song by any male act and overall 3rd longest in history. The song originally released in April 2023, but it started charting only after a year, around October 2024. Exactly one year it has been. And it went for a long and steady ride. It's pretty surprising coz the genre is Rock/Alt + Ballad. And given the fact that he is only 29 years old and grasping that audience who primarily love slow Rock and emotional ballad, when we have an overcrowded genre called Kpop. Also, Lim Young-woong is another anomaly by himself, but even one of his records were broken by Drowning. The song entered the charts after a viral performance on "Immortal Songs" led to a "reverse-sweep" phenomenon that began in October 2024. Bro enlisted in the military and came back, while his song is still charting. How cool is that. submitted by /u/Daddy1007a [link] [comments]

If you don’t mind me asking, where are you from? I’d love to hear why K-pop is so popular there or if it’s still kind of a niche thing, what made you personally get into it. submitted by /u/Fresh_Economics_715 [link] [comments]

I mean like mind blowingly good. It can be about the dance, vocals or stage presence or all three preferably. To me nothing will ever come close to Jonghyun performing y si fuera ella. No kpop idol will ever reach that level of stage presence and emotion. submitted by /u/iminkneedoflove [link] [comments]

I know about other groups, been knowing about kpop for a decade now but I dont like male groups and I dont care for other groups other than Twice and IVE- because I like to focus on one group only instead of having too many on my plate and not knowing every group as well as i can/ not focusing on them? I find many of the male kpop idols repulsive and childlike to me btw? but girl groups are cool, but as I've said, I only actually like Twice and IVE? I don't care/ I honest dont like the bigger ones like BTS/ EXO/ Blackpink etc??? TXT is also not my taste... submitted by /u/aerona_angel [link] [comments]

honestly I miss "We Got Married" and just idol interactions in general. everything gets blown up into rumors nowadays so theyre too scared to interact 💔 also I love that whenever this clip of minhyuk and nayeon resurfaces all the new fans are like "what was nayeon doing with soobin?" 😭😭 submitted by /u/0x1trinity [link] [comments]

I'm curious and trying to understand better whether she's stronger/as strong as dancers like Julie/Natty (kiof), or such. I haven't been able to find a lot on it and i was wondering if anyone could help, possibly with reasoning. thank you so so much! submitted by /u/my_shroom [link] [comments]

The dancers: Chaeryeong, Yeji, Ryujin (ITZY) Hikaru (Kep1er) Kazuha, Kim Chaewon (LE SSERAFIM) Karina (aespa) Jiwoo, Kyujin (NMIXX) Even if you can only rank 1 or 2, I would really appreciate it! i find it so hard to differentiate and I'm trying to understand better :)). Thank you so much submitted by /u/my_shroom [link] [comments]

I feel like every idol has that comeback where the stylist just doesn't miss, for me that was Yena's comeback "Being a good girl hurts" every performance was just such a look! I also loved the styling during Aespas "Supernova" all the looks were so fun and fresh! What comebacks stick out to you the most in terms of styling? submitted by /u/0x1trinity [link] [comments]

às vezes eu sinto que o kpop perdeu a alma. antes tinha dor, caos, identidade — cada grupo tinha um universo, uma história, um som que só eles faziam. hoje tudo parece bonito demais, limpo demais, previsível demais. sinto falta dos conceitos sombrios, dos raps pesados, da energia crua que fazia a gente arrepiar vendo um mv. agora todo mundo é “boy next door”, todo mundo sorri igual, canta igual, se veste igual. não tô dizendo que tá ruim… só que tá vazio. eu quero de volta o estranho, o diferente, o intenso. o kpop que fazia a gente sentir, não só assistir. Agora tudo virou “clean boy”: música leve, conceito colegial, sorriso ensaiado, estética de comercial. Não é ruim, mas é tudo igual. Sinto falta daquela sensação de “caramba, isso é diferente”, daquele peso emocional, da ousadia. Parece que o K-pop ficou com medo de ser estranho — e ser estranho era o que o tornava especial. Será que um dia o dark, o alternativo, o experimental vão voltar? Ou será que o K-pop virou de vez um produto de vitrine? submitted by /u/strawberry867m [link] [comments]
