I love watching idols and dancers sneak in as many hearts as possible at the end of promotions

The subreddit is mostly uncensored as long as people follow the rules. Generalizing statement about Korea, Korean society, etc or most other countries are not acceptable except under the following standards: The only claims that are acceptable when generalizing Korean society in this sub are those that bring up generalizable stastical claims by the standards of the international statistics institute. Not only do the vast majority of stastistics you can find on the internet about Korea not up to this minimum, basic standard but this requirement includes having ample sample size, blocking by relevant demographics and sometimes even double blind tests. So if you make a generalizing claim, your wording must be properly formatted and links to the relevant studies provided. In other words, the standard for making a generalization is very high in this sub. Not to mention the wording for your claim has to be properly made. Anyone who has taken a college level statistics class will know what I am talking about and we may even require you to provide the confidence level interval if it's relevant for your study. If you cannot meet these standards, I would just avoid doing it in general. submitted by /u/Kpop_Love_Forever [link] [comments]

I've seen people claiming that because she's not Korean, her solo songs are not Kpop. Lisa was in Korea for a long time, and heavily involved in the Kpop industry (AND STILL IS). Just because she's spending more time overseas now doesn't change where she came from. submitted by /u/SpecSlayerSC [link] [comments]

K-pop isn’t actually getting “worse,” it’s just getting boring because the new wave of stans made it boringggg everyone’s too busy policing vibes, overanalyzing every idol’s breath, and turning every comeback into a stan war instead of just… enjoying the music?? like when did liking more than one group become a crime? now it’s all “who’s the it girl,” “who’s the main visual,” “who’s flopping,” “who’s charting” — like girl… when’s the last time you even streamed a b-side?? 💀 K-pop used to be fun, messy, and creative — now it’s spreadsheets, fanwars, and fake woke takes on Twitter. bring back the chaos era when people actually liked music and not just their fave’s brand deals and also??? a lot of people keep saying “keep K-pop Korean,” but then get mad whenever a member doesn’t know how to speak English?? like?? the irony is insane submitted by /u/ShipArtistic4139 [link] [comments]

For me its All Day Project. They just reheated Kard nachos with a hint of homophobia , nepotism , and racism. Their debut was a meh. I dont even understand the hype behind them to. this is just a over budget kpop group that skipped media training and their company is just Annies parents and overworked execs. submitted by /u/Ssqpphirc1111 [link] [comments]

For example, Itzy's Loco instrumental could be in an action movie. Maybe some could fit well in science fiction or fantasy, or a drama or whatever. You could either bring up other types of media such as video games. Or what would best for a rave. submitted by /u/SpecSlayerSC [link] [comments]

Just wanted to share this with yall! this was my senior capstone project for college :) it’s a dance film made up of kpop and jpop covers! submitted by /u/YoruBloo [link] [comments]

One thing that's always bothered me about K-pop (and a lot of pop music in general) is that the singers usually don't write the songs, or even get a say in the process. Are there any K-pop groups out there where the members write a lot of the songs, or participate more in production, etc.? submitted by /u/_specialcharacter [link] [comments]

I try not to spam my reactions here but I really enjoy this song and want others to know about it ❤️ submitted by /u/DdogPlaysGames [link] [comments]

I would say Jimin and Jungkook from BTS! V and Jin are the official visuals though. Also Soyeon from G-Idle. She's genuinely so attractive I was actually shocked when I found out she wasn't the main visual. Han from Stray Kids too. submitted by /u/Sea-Republic8892 [link] [comments]

This has almost every group/song ive listened to and enjoyed! It hasnt been updated a lot in a while, but anyways! Go for it! submitted by /u/Jjong_Hariibo [link] [comments]

I genuinely don’t understand how xlov is gender neutral(understand being the operative word). Like I love me some xlov music and I’ve been with Wumuti since day 1, but I don’t get their concept. It honestly seems like they are trying to portray a specific gender, so I don’t get really get the “neutral” part. This is mostly a terminology thing and not me having a problem with their concept, I look at them and I don’t see gender neutrality, I see femininity, which, imo, is far from neutral. I guess I just have a very different of what gender neutrality would look like, anyways, I’m def open to corrections and yall’s 2cents submitted by /u/Mobile-Structure5702 [link] [comments]

How do you define whether a group is truly underpromoted, or just not resonating with a larger audience? And what does proper promotion look like in a market this saturated and fast-moving? are music show stages enough? Is a tiktok "viral" video with 3M views considered good promotion if no one outside the fandom is checking for the group? Does buying subway ads count as promo, or is that just fandom noise? At what point do we say it's “lack of promotion” rather than maybe the music didn’t connect, or the group didn't attract enough people? What do you consider a well-promoted comeback in 2025-2026? Are there any recent examples where you thought a group got everything they needed promo-wise and still didn’t take off? Or vice versa, comebacks with barely any push that ended up thriving? Sorry if this is all over the place, I'd just love to hear more perspectives on this. Most of the groups I follow aren’t from the Big 4, so I often find myself thinking about these things. Sometimes it’s obvious that the company dropped the ball, but other times it’s less clear (at least to me). Yet fans still default to blaming the lack of promotions or a “bad promo strategy,” and that leaves me more confused. I know luck plays a huge role in success, but it’s definitely not the only factor, and I think we oversimplify the conversation when we pretend otherwise. submitted by /u/CrownDaysThieves [link] [comments]
