No this is not a shitpost nor was it meant to be on kpoopheads, I being 100% serious. Just hear me out. What do people do with stocks? They trade or invest. How are stock prices determined? Through the market forces (demand and supply). Now let's look at photocards. People buy photocards the market being places like weverse, mercari, ebay, etc. Just like how there are multiple stock exchanges. What determines the prices of photocards? Demand and supply. Case in pout the photocards for the most popular/biased member will usually be more expensive because they are in high demand but low supply vs the photocards of the least popular/biased member are usually cheaper. Or regular album pocas are relatively cheaper vs POB pocas or pocas for a specific event like from a brand collab are usually more expensive. Or a specific example with XG they usually only have like 2 pocas in their albums and hardly sell pocas separately so their pocas are now usually more expensive. Why? Because they've been growing in popularity and there aren't many pocas so fan are more willing to buy aka market forces in action. Also investing, I don't know if people do this but they could. Buying a less popular member's photocard while it's cheap and then reselling once they get popular is technically an invest with a good roci compared to what you bought it for. Stock prices usually fluctuate and the same could be said for photocards. If a member was less popular and starts going viral and becomes more biased their photocard prices will usually rise. Or if an idol was popular and they get into a controversy then their photocard prices will probably drop (i don't trade but I'm hoping that's what's happening to Taeil's photocards). The difference between stocks and photocards is mainly that you can't make passive income from photocards but they're pretty similar. I conclusion stocks=photocards and we're all technically trading bros. submitted by /u/ElectronicPianist857 [link] [comments]

12. This is the first time i saw a song enter flo top 100 first before melon

Correct me if im wrong but to my knowledge flo is a lot harder to enter than melon top 100. So the fact that the song enter there first before melon top 100 is quite odd, But I'm not kcharts expert so i could be wrong. submitted by /u/Party-Confection417 [link] [comments]

13. Were Kpop positions ever a thing?

  • 2 hours ago schedule
  • reddit.com language

I know that things like Center and Leader were announced officially (like for Twice or IZ*ONE), but I can't seem to find any "definitive" sources that say whether someone is a dancer, visual, vocalist, etc. It seems like this is a more subjective category. Have these positions always been determined by fans? How do we determine that? Growing up I was sure that Jihyo was the main vocalist or that Momo was the main dancer, but finding anything official for most groups has been pretty hard. I just wanted to know because I wanted add a category to my kpop wordle game that used an idol's position as an identifier but not sure the best source to use. submitted by /u/Minute_Expression973 [link] [comments]

Stray Kids’ comeback dropped today and the lyrics are the same as always. “Awards,” “spotlight,” “fame.” They keep singing like they’ve got some enemy, but honestly, they’re just fighting with themselves. I really wish they’d switch it up with their music and lyrics, it’s getting kinda boring. submitted by /u/loftseok [link] [comments]

28. A new idea on how to define K-pop as from a new fan

  • 4 hours ago schedule
  • reddit.com language

(A disclaimer I am no expert in any of the topics and am just a guy with ADHD, a hyper fixation and a vision) We have all seen the most common definitions of K-pop As Korean popular music, Korean idol music and as an industry. Now of these are all true to extent but I don’t feel they capture what make K-pop, K-pop in full. There is something that is always discussed when people talk about kpop but I have yet to see it bought in the the discussion of the definition of K-pop And that is concepts. So I would like to propose a new definition of K-pop as a conceptual performance art As I feel a lot of these previous definition have fallen short in taking into account the conceptual and performance aspects of the genre Concepts and why they matter I believe what makes K-pop special and so engaging is its ability to convey a concept or emotion through music and performance despite the on paper linguistics barrier many people have towards the genre. Yes this is done through the music, lyrics and singing but also through the choreography and expressions, styling and sometimes set design. The latter aspects to have the ability to elevate and express the concept of the song more clearly and make us appreciate it better. I am sure we have all had that song where we listened to but were only sold once we saw a performance of it or a song that musically isn’t your usual cup of tea but you adore the performance And this not a new thing this has been there since the beginning and is still here till now I will now discuss and highlight this through a certified classic ‘Candy’ by H.O.T and a recent release ‘Surf‘ by NCT Wish with the same core concept of cute but with different flairs. ‘Candy’ has cute energetic upbeat almost funhouse feel while ‘Surf’ has cute cool summer beachside vibe To study them I looked at the MBC top music 19961207 performance of ‘Candy’ and the Mnet 250814 performance of surf Now how do they display their respective concepts Music ‘Candy’ has a lot of upbeat bouncy sounds and a repetitive drum beat ‘Surf’ makes use of ambient beach sounds and motifs that people associate with the vibe Singing ‘Candy’ the singing is happy sing songy ‘Surf’ has soft smooth singing Rap Both songs have a rap section with is used to add layers but isn’t to quick so it still fits comfortably into the song Lyrics I can’t comment on the lyrics of ‘Candy’ or ‘Surf’ without translation and as I wanted to focus on how the concept is displayed regardless of language. Outside of that I soul like to highlight the use of surf in ‘Surf’ as the the soft sound help display the cool relaxed vibe Choreography ‘Candy’ the choreography is bouncy has multiple cutesy highlight parts Surf makes use of waves to convey the flows vibe of the song Expression ‘Candy’ uses happy expressions ‘Surf’ makes use of both happy and cool relaxed expressions Styling ‘Candy’ has oversized tracksuits soft colourful fabric with accessories like the iconic oversized mittens reminiscent of cartoon characters and the fluffy bucket hat as well as earmuffs, bobble hat, goggles. ‘Surf’ goes with white clothes which give that pure bright vibe, the choice of shorts, some layer outfits with long sleeves, the large socks, open caps that remind me of tennis /country club clothes Set design I am unsure if the set design in the background of ‘Candy’ was for the performance specifically or the show as a whole ‘Surf’ has a set the is reminiscent of resorts in places like Hawaii, Florida and the Caribbean with surfboards palm trees water on the backing screen a beach bar Now in both songs these elements come together to create a clear cute feel along side the addition flairs of each these are my basic observations so if you have more to add please do I hope to hear your thoughts on this and have discussions facilitate the exploration of this idea and see it applied to more songs submitted by /u/ARG_obesessed [link] [comments]
