for me, it's the oldies thinking that every kpop is either BTS or ENHYPEN(they are not pronouncing this right btw) submitted by /u/Fit-Entertainer9733 [link] [comments]
So this Korean youtuber, who basically had no subscribers before, uploaded a video about her experience at aespa’s recent kickoff concert in Korea. She seems like a big concert-goer who attends a wide range of shows, both kpop and non-kpop. She spent a surprising amount of time getting ready for the show, dressing in a futuristic look that perfectly matched aespa’s concept (she absolutely nailed it!) Honestly, I wish more people would show up to concerts with that kind of creativity. She also got to see Karina up close and praised her visuals, saying, “Out of everyone I’ve ever seen in person, she was the most unreal.” After she got home, she shared her honest thoughts on the concert. Long story short, she said she probably wouldn’t attend another aespa concert again. One of the main reasons was the excessive lipsyncing. As a casual listener, she was most excited for the big title tracks, but most of them were pushed toward the end of the show. The first hour and a half was filled mostly with b-sides, and a lot of them weren’t performed live. She said she ended up just staring at the big screen the whole time. Her quote was, “How’s this different from a music show?” What made it worse was that she had gone to a Day6 concert just the day before, and she’s not a fan of them either, but she had an absolute blast. The contrast between the two concerts was huge according to her. She acknowledged that some people might excuse lipsyncing because idols dance a lot, but said that her past experiences at concerts like 2NE1 and WINNER were totally different. Those groups gave high energy, live performances that really left an impression. All in all, she found the aespa concert boring. Too much lipsyncing and not enough energy. She said it felt more like watching a long music show featuring beautiful girls rather than a concert she could enjoy as a casual fan. It felt like a waste of money and something only hardcore stans would be able to enjoy. The only real highlight for her was getting to see Karina up close. This video has been gaining a lot of attention in Korea, now sitting at nearly 600k views, which is quite surprising considering she had no following beforehand. I think aespa’s recent GMA performance might have contributed to it going viral. Just for context, the concert she attended happened a few weeks before the GMA stage. As for me, I’m generally fine with a few lipsynced performances at concerts. If the choreography is super intense, I can understand it. But when most of the concert is lipsynced or the AR is loud enough to completely drown their voices, I feel like it’s doing the audience a disservice. I really hope the girls are able to deliver stronger, more engaging shows for the rest of the tour. Here's the link to the video if anyone is interested. She included English subtitles too. submitted by /u/GainImpressive8183 [link] [comments]

Can include soloists and group members whether they’re still currently active or not. They have to have debuted between 1990 and 2009. Whoever has the highest number of upvotes on their most upvoted comment wins the round. BoA won the fourth round with 33 upvotes! Next up we’re looking for the center. submitted by /u/nipplequeefs [link] [comments]

So I recently been discovering groups that aren’t considered mainstream or from the big 4 companies. LET ME JUST SAY ITS HONESTLY A CHEAT CODE TO GET THE DREAM KPOP FAN EXPERIENCE ON A BUDGET! My experience going to a seventeen concert was a bit overwhelming. There were long lines and you have to arrive hours just to even get a chance at merch and that’s not guaranteed you’ll get anything. Not to mention the cost of the ticket and merch literally is months of my paycheck just for a basic seat not including the few shirts I got. Everybody was rushing which means you yourself have to move fast. And the chaos around me worn me out. I loved the concert but the process of it all was draining for me. But I recently started stanning Oneus and went to their concert AND I GOT MY MONEYS WORTH! Not only I got a seat really close to the stage (well auditorium) but I was also able to afford the highest vip tier which included so much stuff (signed merch from all members, 1-on-1 photos, group photo of just me and the members, high touch, a lanyard, and merch line priority). All of this was less then my seventeen ticket. Not to mention because they had a smaller audience the members themselves walked down the aisle and were dancing with the fans(2 members were right beside me)! Their energy and hearing them live so close was such a surreal experience I thought I never truly get to experience such a concert since I used to only really listen to bts and seventeen. And did I mention the merch being affordable and available is a bonus?! I don’t have to stress fighting with people over them and not break my bank as badly compared to others. I hope Oneus gain popularity as they really deserve it, but a selfish part of me is loving not having to plan anything ahead. I just went to the counter, bought what I want, and enjoyed my show peacefully. ☺️ I loved it so much that I started looking into other groups and so much hidden gems are being over looked! There are many groups that have amazing artists but are buried under bigger groups due to lack of resource for exposure. I loved so many songs since I don’t really like the trend of mainstream at the moment. Not to mention it brings back the nostalgic memory of scrapping the web for videos with English subtitles and the happiness you feel when they finally upload a video after a while (if you were in 2nd gen kpop you know exactly what I mean 😂) If you are interested I say give it a shot. I think everybody should at least find one none mainstream group and get that Kpop concert experience you always dreamed. submitted by /u/Frosty-Honeydew- [link] [comments]

It's just comedic at this point. I'm not out here defending this huge company because why would I, but I just think it's crazy that people seem to have such a hate boner for hybe that they'll go and blame every controversy ever on this company. Hybe sucks ok, so does sm, so does jyp, so does yg. All these companies have their faults because they're huge companies that at the end of the day only exist for the sole purpose of getting as much profit as they possibly could. Hybe happens to be the biggest and most succesful company out of these right now, but at this point they are also so big that I think people forget that most of the 'decisions' made by hybe are done by the smaller labels under them. Hybe just happens to be the name of the company in one, but there are like dozens of companies under the name that are the ones pulling the strings. Blaming hybe 'the company' for decisions made for a specific group would be like blaming the president of your country for a mistake your local town mayor made. Or even worse because often hybe gets jabs when the controversy doesn't even have anything to do with a hybe artist, which would be like blaming another country's president for a mistake your local town mayor made submitted by /u/Due_Improvement_5699 [link] [comments]
I would actually say that the KPOP community would be better if people would just accept the fact that people have different music tastes and it is possible for someone to like everything their faves release. I believe that statement in the title is just you wanting people to acknowledge your statement as a fact and only your preferences are valid which I don’t believe to be true. And I know some of you will look at my user and be like, “Of course a STAY is saying this”, “It makes sense now”. I’m not just saying this as a STAY, I’m saying it in general. There are going to be ppl who love all of TXT songs, ATEEZ, Enhypen, BP, TWICE, BTS, and more, whereas there are a lot of people who don’t. There can be well-liked songs like ‘Ditto’ by NJZ (best song ever btw), but there are a lot of people who don’t like that song just the same. You telling someone that a song sounds bad and they don’t agree, doesn’t mean they’re stupid or theyre brainwashed. “Just because a song charted well doesn’t mean it’s good” — to you. I’m just saying that it would be best if we’d just stop each other for our differences. submitted by /u/skzshyperver [link] [comments]

If you’re a global K-Pop fan, chances are you’ve had this moment: headphones in, music blasting, heart swelling—then your eyes land on the Romanized lyrics. Eoduwojin apgilsoge? Yeongwonhi kkaejil su eomneun? Balkge bitnaneun urin? At first sight, Romanized Korean looks almost alien—English letters twisted into strange combinations that don’t behave the way English does. “Eo,” “eo,” “eu,” “ui”—they appear familiar but sound nothing like what you expect. And yet, millions of fans around the world sing them out loud, fumbling at first, then slowly finding rhythm. Why? Because Romanization is the bridge. It gives us something to hold onto before we dive into Hangul itself. I wrote two articles in a news media how to read romanized Korean words. http://localhost:3001/insight-articles/golden-lyrics-part1.html http://localhost:3001/insight-articles/golden-lyrics-part2.html #how-to-read-romanized-korean #lyrics-golden #kpop-demon-hunters. submitted by /u/Nicklee0345 [link] [comments]
