i’ve gone through 35/154 ! which is way less than i expected so far , but its hard!! i’ll also share my favorite albums/eps so far! everything here is 100% subject to change i’ll probably shuffle things around a lot as i listen more. the tiers are in order too, so for example, 9muses is my favorite in the top tier, while brown eyed girls is at the bottom of that same tier. ⚠️ just because a group has one of my favorite albums doesn’t mean i think their entire discography is the best ⚠️ top 10 kpop girl group albums/eps (so far) Fe3O4 Forward — NMIXX The Billage of Perception — Billlie Assemble24 — tripleS Heart Attack — AOA Love City — 9muses Drama — aespa The Blue — APRIL Dreaming — APRIL Very Berry — BerryGood Pink Blossom — Apink (sorry if i messed up any album names, i was rushing 😭) tier explanations basically no skips → almost every song is high quality, with a lot of variety across the discography. no real weak tracks. amazing → most songs are good, but either the sound isn’t very diverse or they just didn’t click with me as much. average → about what i’d normally expect from a group. sometimes one standout song bumps them up (e.g. blackpink — “as if it’s your last” saved them from going lower). bored → very little variety, feels like the group hasn’t really built a unique musical identity yet. what is this → not my style at all. usually messy instrumentals or bad mixing. submitted by /u/BusyTomato9539 [link] [comments]

why are k-pop stans recently so obsessed, chronically online and hateful. don’t get me started on the the performative hate waves they love to embark on. when i liked k-pop back in 2015 is was so peaceful colourful and fun, now i can’t even go online without being slapped in the face with fan wars, chart obsessed people, getting mad over the tiniest things, telling idols to delete themselves. body shaming, saying idols are ugly, spreading HUGE misinformations. Genuinely…. im so tired of this im sorry but i think k-pop fandoms has turned from what used to be a safe fun place to the worst group of people and im so tired of it all. like TOUCH SOME GRASS. i have NEVER looked at a group and gone “wow i hate them” they are all good artists and music is subjective, jf you don’t like the song MOVE ON. don’t hate !!! idols are allowed to date, idols are allowed to drink, smoke and guess what they are allowed to have their own opinions too !! not everything in the world is black and white and sometimes i think people need to direct all this hate and passion to the people who MATTER aka governments, leaders, ACTUALLY BE PRODUCTIVE. ok bye rant over submitted by /u/sonotmeanttobe [link] [comments]

┏━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┓ Hey everyone, I hope you all had a good week. My week was pretty good as we’ve had some cooler days; in a few weeks, autumn will arrive. We did get some fantastic tunes that helped move the week forward, and I kept having them on repeat. I’m excited to see what the next month will bring for music, so with all of that out of the way, let’s jump into the music and see what the artists delivered this week. ┗━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┛ https://preview.redd.it/om9q8dd917mf1.jpg?width=1536&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=430bf4c36d6b0d3bf8597da04f8adfaefed03b3e Other Korean Releases of the Week: August 26th 이렇게 하자 (with 소섬 (SOSEOM)) - Yoon Jong Shin Yoon Jong Shin is back with a new single for his monthly series, which he does every year. For the new single, he teams up with SOSEOM. Synths and guitars open up the track, bringing a city-pop feel. The vocals are smooth, blending wonderfully with the instrumental. The hook is pretty relaxing as the vocalist delivers some sweet vocals during that section. It’s cool to see Yoon Jong Shin teaming up with an independent singer. I like the vibe of this tune as it almost reminds me of the 2021 track he did with Miyu. https://preview.redd.it/gwbenljr17mf1.jpg?width=600&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=424b9b595f314b1634643aaaee4b34cc45cc82f0 »»————- ★ ————-«« August 27th Elevation - Lun8 Lun8 released their first Japanese album, one I was excited to hear. Most of the album has already been pre-released, so I’ll be talking about the new songs. "We Just" is the first new track, bringing in a funky-pop vibe that fits the group's vocals wonderfully. I’ve been having this one on repeat as it’s been getting stuck in my head, and the rapping adds to the vibe. On the opposite side of things, Motley Crew is a different vibe a the instrument goes for this strong vibe. The backing track reminds me of those dark boy group songs that I enjoy. The vocals from Lun8 hit hard as they keep pulling me back for more. The hook is one of my favorites as I’ve been having this on repeat just like We Just. Riding High brings in a sweeter vibe that works well for the group. I’m glad the group debuted in Japan cause their Japanese songs have been on repeat since we first heard them. Elevation is a great Japanese album from a Boy group. https://preview.redd.it/cs2pyd9227mf1.jpg?width=900&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a43b778e7181560523a66a418b8bc8bce2edfa9d »»————- ★ ————-«« Non-Korean Releases of the Week: Disco Nap - Shania Yan This week, when I was on Instagram, I was recommended an Indonesian singer called Shania Yan. I found her original music reminding me of Disney Channel meets anime music. Her new single, Disco Nap goes for a funky-synth-pop tune. The sweet vocals blend with the bouncy beat that helps create the catchy melody. The hook explodes for this catchy moment that will be stuck in your head. Shania’s voice fits the instrumental and the lyrics she is singing. I feel like this tune will have to grow on me, but at the moment, I’m enjoying what she delivered to the table with her new single. https://preview.redd.it/yxc1hred27mf1.jpg?width=354&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=786aa6955eecf600493d82a012c0fa7a5ae7b595 »»————- ★ ————-«« Lastfm Weekly Roundup (August 22nd - August 28th) Artist: Twice https://preview.redd.it/hr6kpl2l27mf1.jpg?width=640&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=768504c79f5529af09fd5d285ec26b08127ec627 »»————- ★ ————-«« Album: IVE Secret - IVE https://preview.redd.it/plo2op4s27mf1.jpg?width=640&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=24fa0cf681fa97566dfccc296ab51bcab575fc5c »»————- ★ ————-«« Song: Dear, My Feelings - IVE submitted by /u/Maltifandom23 [link] [comments]

It's always "i like __ but not their fandom" but are there any groups that you can't seem to get into or like but their fandom is so sweet so you like the fandom more? For me it would be izna, i don't really like them because i'm not interested in their music but i like izna fans submitted by /u/Artistic-Network-247 [link] [comments]

I'm completely aware of how incredibly parasocial this is and that it's a cultural thing as well, but there are so many moments in different types of content (variety shows and such) where members of kpop groups are praised for being a good son/daughter for doing xyz or someone mentions being so thankful for their parents and stuff, that it always makes me - someone who doesn't have a relationship with their parents and came from a difficult home life - wonder whether that's actually true for all these idols? Even the parents who seemed to not be supportive of their kids career choice have come around (obviously the perception of this is very much shaped by confirmation bias, but still!) and the ones who seem to have stage-parent-y type parents also don't really seem to mind (from what we're shown publicly at least) idk, I know it's probably a cultural thing to not really talk about this kind of thing, but I'm curious if there's anyone in a situation like that in kpop (that we know of) submitted by /u/apenguinwitch [link] [comments]

Winners from last time: Jihyo (twice) Irene (red velvet) Karina (aespa) IMPORTANT: Remember how on day one I said that the max amount of people from each group is 1-2? Well since twice is a bigger group I went with two and we have already reached the max amount of twice members. No twice votes will be counted anymore. This week’s is the center. submitted by /u/No-Recording-3274 [link] [comments]

I have a playlist for just my ult group and then a playlist for every song that is not from my ult group. Then I have a playlist for every song, which is those two playlists combined, and named as such (not the name but for example "ult group + non-ult songs") All this has created a mental block in my head of sorts where I view my ult group music and non-ult group music as two fully separate distinct things. I also view all my non-ult group music as just one thing. Because of this, I kind of feel like I grow to resent my ult group music a bit. Because in my brain, when I listen to my ult group, I feel like I am locking myself into listening to only one group when the alternative is to listen to every other kpop song ever created. This is all because I only view kpop songs as one of two things, from my ult group, or not from my ult group. This leads to me listening to my ult group less than I normally would actually like to do. Also, since I am more familiar with my ult group music, I am more likely to skip it because I feel like I am wasting my time and stopping my self from listening to the entire vast world of kpop (all music that isn't my ult group) as I already know this song so well. Ik this sounds really stupid but idk how to get over this mental block. I still like having the playlists I do and I don't want to change them. Was just wondering if anyone else ever experienced this? submitted by /u/SnooOranges829 [link] [comments]

Only last festival (for titles) is different from others. No hate obviously. submitted by /u/Stan_aespamygirls [link] [comments]

The companies put in their contracts that the trainees cannot share things from their training but some trainees shared some seriously horrifying and concerning things, while mentioning that some companies arent like that. With this, these companies don't get backlash for what they do and can just continue freely doing it. I'm at loss about what to do. I don't want to support an industry like that but I also don't want to stop liking Kpop as a whole submitted by /u/Guitarbox [link] [comments]

Hi, I just want to share my K-pop story. Back in high school, the first K-pop song I've ever heard was Nobody by Wonder Girls. That was actually the first time K-pop hit the international charts here in the Philippines. After that came Super Junior and Girls’ Generation, but the group that really blew up was 2NE1, mostly because of Sandara Park. She was already loved here, so her debut made K-pop even bigger. Then SHINee and BIGBANG started dominating. But once I got into college, I kind of drifted away from K-pop. But I'm still aware of the new big names back then like EXO, BTS, TWICE, Momoland, BLACKPINK, and etc, their songs are everywhere. But I wasn’t keeping up like before. Fast forward to recently, me and my friend watched LE SSERAFIM live here in the Philippines. That was huge for me since I never seen a K-pop group live, I instantly became their fan. Then one day, I was listening to Blue Flame on YouTube while cooking, and autoplay played "The Chase" by "Hearts2Hearts". That song hit different, it instantly pulled me right back in. Now I’m all in for these girls. I will definitely support this new group. I’ve watched their vlogs and some of the stuff they hosted, they’re genuinely fun. My fave is Juun. She’s got this gentle vibe while having a fierce look. Like, she’ll freeze you with her stare and then melt you with her smile. And her dancing? No joke. Rookie by name, but she’s already on par with the seniors. I really hope Hearts2Hearts became big and maybe even become the new face of SM someday. submitted by /u/Effective-Bar2198 [link] [comments]

I’m honestly not super up to date with the whole HYBE/NJZ thing. All I know is that they left HYBE and rebranded as NJZ. But like… what’s next for them? With all the hate going around, losing most of their partnerships, and not having a proper comeback since last year, it kinda feels like they’re stuck. Do y’all think they’ll ever manage to bounce back to their old popularity, or are they just gonna slowly fade out? I really wanna believe in them, but the future feels so uncertain right now. submitted by /u/Optimal_Ad_6536 [link] [comments]
