KPOP groups who could have a cult-like fandom

all I can say is the audacity😐 submitted by /u/cuntseok [link] [comments]

I know it's different for each kpop idol/group. But just in general? I know most kpop idols initially have a debt due to the training. I'm guessing their agencies pay for venues and stuff. Does it take a year or so generally? submitted by /u/bobbdac7894 [link] [comments]

I really new to K-pop and I’ve never posted here before, so if I’m doing this wrong or if I’m not supposed to put this here, just let me know and I can delete it. So, like I said, I’ve never really dived into K-pop before, but I found cherry bomb by nct 127 by chance and that rap section goes crazy hard. I’m desperate for more. Does anyone have any recommendations for K-pop songs/groups/etc that rap like that? I also think I’d like songs that are generally high energy with addictive hooks, so would Is happily take any recommendations for stuff like that too. Thank you! submitted by /u/Small-Peach6759 [link] [comments]

There's a part in the choreo where Wumuti sits on Hyuns leg and it's been censored multiple times. This is water fest where the camera panned to the other two members during that part but they're not the focus of the choreo then. submitted by /u/xlov_mother_muti [link] [comments]

So here's the rules Any gen is allowed Only members who aren't from the big 4 (SM, JYP, Hyde, and YG) Only one member per group Please only nominate one person and try to just upvote instead of putting the same idol multiple times Roughly 24 hours voting but I have a job so it won't be perf, sorry submitted by /u/xlov_mother_muti [link] [comments]

I’ve been a kpop stan for a long time now, I’m currently really into BigBang and the members’ solo music and content. Through GD’s show Good Day, it was pretty much my first actual exposure to the group Seventeen via BSS. They were so funny and charismatic and I somehow ended up coming across a lot of SVT content on my social medias to the point that I already know and can identify half of the members by name. Now I’m not opposed to listening to their music, honestly I’ll likely end up listening to their discography eventually, but right now I just really enjoy watching their group content. This same situation has happened to me before with Jackson Wang, I absolutely love him as an individual but I’ve never really listened to his or GOT7’s music aside from songs I happened to listened to on the radio. Has anyone else been in this situation? I don’t think I’ve ever come across anyone that stans a kpop artist for their content and not their music lol 😅 submitted by /u/Fancy_Breads [link] [comments]

Okay I know this is probably really random but I watched bang chans live from the other night and im happy that he was setting boundaries with all of the crazy “fans” that there have been recently but after hearing him it literally made me so upset that I don’t even want to be a part of that fandom anymore. I literally don’t want to be associated with STAY because it’s lowkey embarrassing at this point. Idk if I need to step back and take a break from K-pop or what cause I love stray kids so much but the fandom is honestly really ruining it for me. I don’t understand why people just can’t act normal. submitted by /u/Sydneyruthhh88 [link] [comments]

I still can't believe it. They were one of my favourite groups and I also saw them live. I can't help but think RBW did them dirty not capitalizing on momentum gained from Zombie and Sweet Juice. Insanely talented group with a fantastic discography, they will be missed dearly 😭 It sucks personally for me as that's now two groups I've stanned that have been hit with the disband hammer recently, the first of which was Loossemble. I'm... just so sad rn 😞 Official article: https://purplekiss.co.kr/community/board/63563c9c60351124ac4aeb29/post/68902231b582593cac5764b0 Translation from DeepL taken from Purple Kiss sub: Hello. This is RBW. First of all, we would like to express our deepest gratitude to all of you, Plory, for your continued support of PURPLE KISS. We would like to make an official statement about the group activities and future plans of PURPLE KISS. First and foremost, we apologize for the short notice. This November, Purple Kiss will be ending its group activities. As much as we care deeply about the group, we and our members have had long and serious discussions about how we envision our future. As a result, we have come to a conclusion that we respect each other's opinions and support each other's dreams. Although the group's activities are coming to an end, we plan to continue with our planned activities to repay the support and love we've received so far. Moving forward, Purple Kiss will be with you for the rest of the year, starting with the English album release in late August, followed by Japanese promotions, a tour of the Americas, and a concert in Korea. We've shared countless moments with Purple Kiss over the years, and we'd like to thank the six members for all their hard work and dedication. There were days that were clumsy and imperfect, but every moment could shine thanks to the members who shared their passion with us and Plory who always cheered us on from the same spot. We would like to express our deepest gratitude to Plory who have always loved Purple Kiss with their affectionate gaze. Thank you. submitted by /u/FanCaracal [link] [comments]

I've been thinking about Kpop from a more business/industry perspective lately and Jennie from blackpink seems to be a great case study especially now that she’s launched her own label, Odd Atelier. It's pretty cool to see a Korea based artist expand into global activities at this scale while maintaining full creative control. So I'm curious how the management structure behind someone like Jennie actually works. Here’s what I’ve been thinking: 1. Domestic Team Structure Around Jennie (Tentative Picture) From what I can tell, even though OA is technically a one artist label, Jennie still seems to rely on the Kpop support network. schedule managers, personal assistants, hair/makeup teams and long time stylists who’ve worked with her since the blackpink days. OA’s based in Seoul so that crew likely handles most Korea side logistics from TV appearances to brand deal coordination and the paperwork that goes with them. The music side feels less set in stone. I haven’t come across any clear signs of a fixed in house production team like the big agencies' A&R departments. But I may be missing a few things so happy to be corrected if I’m wrong. It looks more like she taps a rotating group of producers and topliners, keeping one or two familiar names for continuity while bringing in fresh collaborators each project. That flexible setup would make sense for a soloist at her level but I can’t say for sure without insider confirmation. 2. Dancers, Choreographers, and Touring Crew We know Jennie does her choreo with IG@silvergunnnn but the performance side is bigger than just the choreographer. She seems to travel with a fairly steady pool of backup dancers so there has to be some structure behind them. What I’m not clear on is who actually manages those dancers once a project kicks off. Do they have a separate tour crew coordinator handling dancers, rehearsal spaces, visas, and day to day schedules? If anyone has insight on how soloists usually staff out their live crew especially the dance side, I’d love to hear it. Maybe I’m lumping things together but it feels like choreography, dancers and touring logistics could each be its own lane. Happy to be corrected if I’m off. 3. Her Global Management Then there’s ALTA Music Group, which recently signed on to manage Jennie’s overseas activities. That arrangement really has me curious. How exactly do ALTA and Odd Atelier split the workload? OA looks to be scaling up fast and has already brought in staff with solid international experience but Jennie’s kind of global reach is huge. Partnering with ALTA seems like a smart play, my guess is ALTA handles things like international booking, western media outreach and industry networking while OA focuses on creative direction and core brand decisions. Does alta take the lead on all activities outside korea, or do you think it’s more of a case by case setup? 4. The Future of Odd Atelier as a Company Looking at OA’s website, I get the feeling they might plan to sign other artists someday. if that’s the case, the company will need a more structured, scalable system like artist development, in house production, A&R, PR, touring staff and so many things. Fast forward 10 or 15 years, OA could look very different once their roster and global footprint start to grow. Anyone here know how global management really works for kpop idols doing their own thing like Jennie? Kinda dying to hear the inside scoop submitted by /u/Total_Raccoon7667 [link] [comments]
