WINNER: ITZY ❤️ Next! BEST DANCE PRACTICES

I'm 53, I have always been a pop girlie, always been a music lover and I am a trained opera singer. I came in to Kpop late in life (49) and haven't looked back, I'm over all enjoying myself inside the world I used to think was silly and only something children liked. I have been to three concerts, two in a wheelchair and one in a walker (yay mobility progress!). At Ateez, I had people coming up and offering to help if I seemed stuck or 'in the way' but never rudely, same at Stray Kids, had people help get me to the doors and up to our seats, all Atiny and Stay and they were great. Went to see P1Harmony in ATL and, keep in mind, this is not a slight on the group, they and Ampers&1 were fantastic to see, one of the best shows I've been to. Here I am in line, behind another disabled person in a mobility scooter, also an older woman, both of us keeping up with and in no way slowing down the line, when out of nowhere this girl about 5 groups of fans back starts loudly ranting about how the arena staff should "kick all the f**king grandmas out of the line" and generally just bad mouthing how inconvenient she finds having us 'ugly disabled and old people in her videos of the concert" This went on until the staff did finally come get us, not to 'kick us out' but to speed us through the line. (which was not her doing and should have happened sooner but the staff at gas south were a bit overwhelmed with 6 lines to sort through) This isn't okay. People around her did call her out and IDK who you are random p1ece but I love you. Kpop is music, music doesn't have an age limit you can gate keep, neither do concerts. Disabled people, old people and people you might not find aesthetically pleasing have every right to buy a ticket and go to the same things the able-bodied, young or genetically blessed can. The age thing is never going to go away in the fandom of an industry that considers women "old hags" at 27, so that, though not okay, is at least not a surprise but the nasty ablism was something else and at no time is acceptable, particularly when all we were doing was existing in the same space as you. Also, tall red-headed kinda horse faced girl, 5 people caught you on video, Gas South has had it sent to them as has FNC. FAFO. submitted by /u/diaphoni [link] [comments]

I mostly follow girl groups but feel free to share your takes on boy groups too. Surprises NMIXX - "Fe3O4: STICK OUT" (last year) was somewhat of a letdown compared to "BREAK", but "FORWARD" the best of the three. "High Horse", "KNOW ABOUT ME", "Papillon" are all crazy good songs... "SPINNIN' ON IT" is maybe my favorite song of theirs, can't wait for their full album. ILLIT - They've stayed true to their concept (which is a breath of fresh air). "bomb" is every bit as good as "Super Real Me" which says a lot. They haven't settled for releasing generic stuff. Hearts2Hearts - "The Chase" is awesome. The other songs feel a bit safe in comparison, but still very high quality. SM really knows what they're doing, super promising group. Honorable mentions: Yeji, Minnie, Seulgi, RESCENE, ARTMS, BIBI, ifeye, FIFTY FIFTY, KPOP Demon Hunters (fun movie, hope we get more of them) Letdowns Blackpink - I'm more confused than anything else. I really expected they to prepare something really special after all this time, but they released an OK song with an MV full of awful AI. And unless I missed some news, there's no album announcement yet? izna - I'm rooting really hard for them as I had a lot of fun watching I-LAND 2. But their songs still haven't delivered. They feel generic/formulaic and the group doesn't seem to have much of a concept or identity. Losing Jiyoon doesn't help at all :( aespa - "Supernova", "Armageddon", "Whiplash" was an all-timer. I think most people agree that "Dirty Work" and "Rich Man" are a downgrade from those. Still have high hopes they'll get better songs in the future. Honorable Mentions: IVE (same as aespa, ok songs but we know how good they can be), MEOVV (too early to tell, but not liking what they've put out) To be seen fromis_9 - Glad they're back and seem to be very popular. The music feels like a downgrade but the title track was good. Katseye - They're the best attempt a global group I can think of. The members are all really fun. Glad they've got the pass to say crazy stuff and swear, etc. instead of being held to the same standards as K-Pop artists. Hope they get better songs in the future. KiiiKiii - "I DO ME" was a very poor start for me, but "BTG" and "Dancing Alone" are great songs. They feel like something new. submitted by /u/MinHeeJeans [link] [comments]

My city in Southern Brazil is having a children’s day celebration and they have a live band that is playing Golden and Soda Pop. This was so unexpected but now I’m jealous of those kids 😭 submitted by /u/Maevenclaws [link] [comments]

These groups are often doing really intense choreography for long periods of time. It requires a lot of training and skill to sing with stability under that kind of physical exertion. Obviously some idols can pull it off, but not all. And there’s already backtracking to help give fullness of sound. If occasional lip-syncing happens so they can breathe or not make the show unlistenable, I don’t care. I’m watching or attending for the full experience, not to critique vocal technique. And when live singing is great it’s that much more impressive. I’m sure I’ll get argued with here but it’s okay, I’m not sensitive lol submitted by /u/Carridactyl_ [link] [comments]

I think Izone tbh.. I kinda started them when their contract was ending which lowkey made me sad 🥹🥹 submitted by /u/hearts4him_ [link] [comments]

Timeless, beautiful, Kpop songs that make you cry, or make you feel deeply? Spring Day by BTS would be the one for me. What about you? Please include the group and song name. submitted by /u/AlessandraAthena [link] [comments]

This question came to mind because I asked some of my friends who aren’t big K-pop fans which idols they know, and they said Jungkook 💀. When I asked what they knew about him, they said they’d seen his pictures on billboards and knew he had tattoos, abs, and that he gives off fboy vibes. Some also said they knew Jimin and he seems cute and sweet which I think is accurate :( That honestly shocked me because, to me, Jungkook seems so cute and sweet as well! Like, yeah, he’s definitely attractive, but still like wtf?? So it made me wonder: is there any K-pop idol who you think is perceived really differently by the general public compared to how fans actually see them? submitted by /u/Sea-Republic8892 [link] [comments]

┏━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┓ Hey everyone, I hope you all had a good week. My week was pretty good, as I’ve been listening to a lot of tunes that helped make it better. One thing that made this week even better was getting tickets to see Twice in New York next year, which I’ll be going to with one of my friends. I’m still excited for my friend to see a kpop concert for the first time. Now, let’s jump into the music and see what the artist has released. ┗━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┛ Disclaimer: Sorry for the short episode last week. This week’s episode is due to Chuseok, a time when many Korean artists refrain from releasing new content. https://preview.redd.it/h43582m5riuf1.jpg?width=1536&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d0e4269c8a7967d52d9b06946ceae21aff27fee5 Best of the Week: Take a Bit (Feat Moon Sujin) - Trade L My favorite thing this week comes from my favorite R&B/rapper, Trade L, who dropped another album this year that has been on repeat, but one song on the album takes over my week. Trade L Teams up with Moon Sujin as he helps SEIN with the composition of the instrumental. Trade L’s voice is so autotuned over this slick R&B beat that keeplling me back for more. I love the way Sujin comes into the track, adding a smooth transition to her section. I wanted to mention Miss Cali, another favorite of mine, with this slick and bouncy production with a bit of glitchy vibe to it. I’ve been having this album on repeat this week as it’s been getting stuck in my head. https://preview.redd.it/kj6cwb4kriuf1.jpg?width=660&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ccf37ac7edb06bd7efb34c665ff4ecbe97397e3a ━━━━━━━━☓ ━━━━━━━ Other Korean Releases of the Week: October 6th 흰수염고래 - QWER Female rock band QWER returns this week with a new single that opens with an acoustic guitar melody. The vocals enter the mix, hitting hard as they blend seamlessly with the other band members. One thing I love about this tune is the emotion and the melody that are a perfect pair. The percussion starts to come into the second verse as the vocals get even stronger with that emotion that I’ve been loving since the song started. QWER has been putting out some fire tunes since their debut, and this new single is another excellent piece in their discography. https://preview.redd.it/1ei56i9qriuf1.png?width=1200&format=png&auto=webp&s=f2d57898ecd4b77dfcec92d92171db02103a6184 ━━━━━━━━☓ ━━━━━━━ Weekly Lastfm Roundup (October 3rd - October 9th) Artist: Twice https://preview.redd.it/91vhd1i0siuf1.jpg?width=1581&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9984c9c5b475a113e02dfc0a7036de6a654a258b ━━━━━━━━☓ ━━━━━━━ Album: I Got a Fire - Pat Barrett https://preview.redd.it/vy4hpfe6siuf1.jpg?width=400&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6ac3aa554404e99b60909380682f1d6753f08633 ━━━━━━━━☓ ━━━━━━━ Song: AVOCADO (feat.

This is not a Stray Kids hate post nor does it have to do much with the quality of their music. I am not a stay but am a big fan and defender of their music. After spending time with and observing many different fanbases, I have noticed a disproportionate amount of Stays have a superiority complex when it comes to the quality of the group's music compared to other fanbases. Note: I am only talking about the perceived quality of the group's music compared to other groups, nothing else. I wonder why this is. I ult TWICE and I personally think they do have the best discography in K-Pop, however, I would not exactly say I have a superiority complex about the quality of their music. I can recognize when they make weak songs, when other groups make better songs etc. I don't think their music is inherently better just because it is TWICE. I hope you can kind of understand the difference. Most K-Pop fans think their ult group's music is the best but that is not the same as having a superiority complex when it comes to the quality of their music. Many have that too, but Stays just seem to have way more and way more serious cases of it from my observations. My leading theory is just that Stray Kids makes music that is so different than most K-Pop, that their music can always be seen as better just based off the fact there is no real group to compare it to and "beat it". Your always first place when your the only one competing. What do you guys think? again this is not about whether their music is actually good or not, so please no hate. submitted by /u/SnooOranges829 [link] [comments]

All Music shows are important but let's aim for the ones where the members MC, to make it extra special, that would be Music Core (Dohoon as mc), and Inkigayo (Shinyu, as an upcoming mc). The streaming platforms for International 42s is Stationhead, there might be more but Stationhead is the one I'm familiar with, connect your premium Spotify or Apple account and stream with other 42s. Streaming is by far the most important category as Digital sales can reach up to 50% of the final score, please log in on Stationhead. For Koreans 42s, the streaming apps used are MelOn, Genie, Bugs, and FLO, only available in Korea.
