Today we go three big releases (Ateez - In Your Fantasy, Blackpink - Jump, Twice - This Is For) and 2/3 of the songs are all in english and Jump is mostly in english. What happened to the KOREAN pop I was promised? It's okay to make all English songs sometimes, I understand but the reason why I got into k-pop is because it's not like western music. What happened to real k-pop? I feel like we are losing the spark. Does anyone else feel this way or am I alone? submitted by /u/Direct_Tumbleweed607 [link] [comments]

I was looking at their posts from whiplash vs dirty work and maybe I'm reading too much into this, but the girls just don't seem to like this new concept very much. With whiplash they all looked cvnty, but it also looked like they were just feeling the whole concept in general. With Dirty Work they're still cvnty, it just feels a little more forced? I'm not sure if I'm wording this right. submitted by /u/short-asian-gal [link] [comments]

I have always heard that YG groups are dominant in YouTube and I think that used to be the case till 2023, after that Youtube changed it algorithm to favour shorts creators (The top 50 YT subscribed channel have atleast 5 channels which only upload shorts). This algorithm change hurt music videos the most, Kpop being so reliant on YT for reaching new audience through their glamourous music videos and dominating it with 100's of millions of views with fans mass streaming them made it seem like kpop was on an upward trajectory but after that algorithm change kpop industry got hit the most. Also YouTube has cut down on bot views meaning one can only watch a video max of 5 times (as far as I remember reading about this 2-3 months ago, I don't remember where I reading it) so I think kpop fans should slow down on this mass streaming because it's not adding any views and you are wasting time. One another thing to add don't comment "emoji" is also a very dumb thing, emoji does not freeze views, YT has just changed the algorithm to favour shorts to compete with TikTok and in the wakeup of short attention span of people. Now coming back to the topic YG groups were dominant force on YouTube as they YG had the main kpop market SEA on lock with people mass streaming the videos but now that mass streaming is filtered as not views by youtube and does not add to streams YG has resorted to insane amounts of ad views. Just as SM created this best vocalists in kpop superiority for their fans to brag about, HYBE with best performers in kpop to brag about, YG stans had most amount of YT views superiority that they used to brag about and this was also the selling point of YG groups. Now that Youtube has favoured short content over long form content YG has to rely on insane amount of ADS to maintain because this was large part of YG fans culture, being dominant on YouTube. I understand doing it for Music videos, Babymonster Hot sauce has insane amount of ads, but for dance practice video you cannot tell me this isn't their way still maintaining this facade of YG groups are dominant on YouTube. Izna label and TBL groups also uses a lot of ads, TBL also hides likes on their channel like you cannot be more obvious. I think all the kpop labels need to stop buying ads because in all honesty ads don't bring in much fans but a good song or a good album with your traditional promotion tactics, like performing anywhere for fans for free during album promotion, even 1 free show in 2-3 countries just like how popstars used to do it will bear better results and increase fan engagement than this tradition of buying insane amount of ads to maintain this facade. Facade why? Because this not bearing results in ticket sales, Stacy and Babymonster ticket sales were on sale as low as 40 usd because they were not selling out. While one tour that just got announced has queue of over 100k on ticketmaster, that group could literally sell out stadiums in all venues and it's their 1st tour. All this is because of great marketing by their team and not pumping money in ads but actual traditional marketing, I am not going to name the group because than it would seem like I am trying to drag other groups and uplift that group which is not the intention of my post. I just made this post because whenever I see a kpop music video fans are in the comments talking about let's stream, do not comment emojis, here to stream after sleeping like it's some kind of job (crazy thing is it's counting as bot views and not registering lol) Also there are certain group of people dragging some groups for ads (izna comments are filled with such drags), some (itzy) for low views while YG is maintaining it's facade and it's their fans dragging group for views while YG is running insane amount of ads. submitted by /u/tooshydooshy [link] [comments]

But, some people from a certain fandom are shitting on TZUYU saying that its misogynistic that she credited a boy group for the global success even though Twice just released a song for all the ladies around the world who have gone through injustice. So ig from now on, crediting any male even if they have done something that deserves to be credited is misogynistic submitted by /u/hellhound_1505 [link] [comments]

I've seen many times that, when someone says they don't like a song that is out of the ordinary (Jump, Gnarly, Sneakers...), there is always someone telling them "it's a shame you can't see the funny side of the song" or that people "don't understand funny music." "People doednt understeand fun music" well, people has different tastes. For example, I loved Cheshire from Itzy/Signal from Twice and other people hated it. Its not "not understeanding fun music" or "being plain and boring" its having other tastes. Stop using the term "fun music" to spread hate when someone says something that goes against your tastes. submitted by /u/_issio [link] [comments]

KPop Demon Hunters’ Songwriter Reveals Music And Song Inspirations One of the tracks written by EJAE and her writing partner, Mark Sonnenblick, has been getting a lot of attention for its sound and meaning behind the music. The song “Your Idol,” sung by The Saja Boys in their demon form, highlights the fandom’s obsession with them. She reveals the track was inspired by EXO’s songs “MAMA” and “Obsession.” EJAE recalls receiving the instrumental track from THEBLACKLABEL and executive music producer Ian Eisendrath with the EXO references and began working on the lyrics – with THEBLACKLABEL songwriters KUSH and VINCE. https://www.forbes.com/sites/laurasirikul/2025/07/01/kpop-demon-hunters-songwriter-reveals-music-and-song-inspirations/?utm_source=chatgpt.com submitted by /u/abraacadabrau [link] [comments]

It is so weird but idk why I want to watch it again and again. It's funny I can't help it🧍‍♀️. Plus the scene in the second chorus when everyone is vibing and stoping according to the beat, it's so satisfying. Also the cgi thing gives it dark color which looks cool but weird at the same time. Idk man I am starting to like the mv. I have never liked blackpink mvs that much cause of lack of transitions and uniqueness and their mv sets have always been pretty but This one is weirdly satisfying to me 😃 I always liked mvs with this ai concepts like this, aespa's supernova also had this weird ai thing and I liked it too. submitted by /u/Klutzy-Advisor2003 [link] [comments]

I am just a girlie excited to know their songs are inspired by Exo's music! As a kpop stan since 2008, my young heart is filled with joy that more older groups are getting recognized and having comebacks! And just how much kpop has grown since then! submitted by /u/naymerz9 [link] [comments]

As a fan from their very first concept photos to fully embracing them after their first Comeback (Run) with new member Hwieseo, I dont understand their nugu status. What do we have here? A 4-member group with a good name & concept (healthy girls, physically and mentally, that evolved into a nostalgic sound), and star quality training backgrounds. Main Vocalist Hwiseo was a Source Music (Gfriend, Le Sserafim) trainee, Main Dancer/Rapper Yel was a JYP trainee, and our two Lead Vocalist/visuals came from YG, Seoi, and WM (Oh My Girl & Izones Lee Chayeon) Riina. I've linked some solo performances if anyone wants to get a better idea of their individuality. Riina & Hwiseo participated in Queendom Puzzle, with Hwiseo winning first place and debuting in the project group. Imo, she secured her win with her opening performance of Tomboy. This came after their big hit with 'Rose Blossom'. Im a firm believer though that they have better songs and should not be hovering at 'nugu' level. I highly suggest any stage performance of 'Run' - my favorite of their title tracks and their stylist ate down bad with their sporty styling. Have we talked about their style? Please take a look at some of their concept photos for Rose Blossom. Urban summer fairies??? Im sat. After Rose Blossoms success they worked hard to establish a nostalgic sound that i think fits their voices so well, while still having fun and youthful songs to blend their energy and enthusiasm. They have 2 lovely lofi style lyric videos for Deeper and Thinkin Bout You, I honestly wish more kpop groups put out these kind of videos for the aesthetics and vibes. Then they had such a good string of high nostalgia summery songs. Two really stand out to me: Seoul (Such a Beautiful City) And Let it Burn And this leads me to my final point. Their current comeback has a mini album and they are currently promoting 2 songs from it, Summer Was You and Good For You. The rest of the mini album, like all of their music, has been a no skip album for me. I highly recommend their performance videos because their dancing is so high energy! They have really fun variety show content and YouTube content. Im happy to make any recommendations if anyone wants to know more. Happy Summer! submitted by /u/EatMoreMango [link] [comments]

I am working on a deep dive about JYP the king himself. His newest performance with that crazy skin tight pink jump suit rlly just made me want to know everything about the guy. I wanted to know, what r your fav jyp moments? either meme or a real performance. He does have some truly iconic (both good and bad) moments. His career is insane. submitted by /u/Present_Ad_6538 [link] [comments]

I noticed that every survival show series (that I know of) started with the girl group competition. Produce 101, Girls Planet 999, My Teenage Girl, Universe Ticket are all the first installments of series that went on to their boy group counterparts. Why does this happen? The only exception to this I can think of is I-Land, but that one's kind of weird because Enhypen and Izna aren't exactly sibling groups. submitted by /u/chesiredeservedmore [link] [comments]
