Hello I’m a new K-pop fan who’s been at this for a month or so but has fallen hard for 5th gen boy groups (high key obsessed I have even been working on a set of playlists of every single song by a 5th gen boy group organised by debut date and year) but has also has had lots of fun listening to older bops that I was introduced to primarily by survival shows. submitted by /u/ARG_obesessed [link] [comments]

Chinese K-POP idols tend to get a lot of hate from both Korean and international K-POP stans, so would diaspora Chinese idols get less backlash? Since a lot, maybe even most, of them don't have Chinese citizenship and obviously no ties to CCP would they be less hated or would they be picked on just for being ethnically Chinese? As far as I know the only diaspora Chinese K-POP idol is he-who-must-not-be-named from EXO but I don't think he was that popular in Korea and it's hard to judge since he's the only one. There's also Amber from F(x) and Mark from Got7 who are both Taiwanese-American but (I think) Taiwanese idols seem to be more accepted by Koreans, so I don't know if they should count in this discussion. submitted by /u/Willing_Permit_263 [link] [comments]

I’m kinda tired of seeing younger idols debuting, especially female idols. They really should get older idols as they can do more with them and more people wouldn’t be weirded out seeing a minor do certain concepts. Also, it would be refreshing seeing older idols for once. submitted by /u/Resident-Pain-2676 [link] [comments]

Hi guys! I wanted to share mine with you. This thing made me realize how there's a lot of groups I don't know. Jeez... haha. On the "not my type" list is mostly groups I don't know or I don't have an opinion about them. Also, I did my rating based on how much I enjoy(ed) their music not on controversies or things like that. submitted by /u/Quejumbrosam [link] [comments]
What I’ve noticed is when Sana speaks English, she slurs every word and you can’t really understand what she’s saying. It’s really apparent on ‘Queen of Hearts’ and ‘This Is For’. She has a good tone, but I wish she would work on English pronunciation. submitted by /u/wieqo [link] [comments]
Lately I’ve been watching a lot of old SHINee content, and Minho sitting silently in the back during all their rookie-era press is kind of bizarre given how loud he actually is. He and Key have both talked about how they were told to basically sit down and shut up during their very early years, as the agency wanted SHINee (and especially Minho) to have more of a mysterious image. To my knowledge, this has fallen out of fashion over time, but I’m curious about other well-known or just publicly acknowledged examples of an agency “assigning” a personality to an idol, especially ones that were obviously very different from their real personality. It’s both a little dark and very funny to me. What other idols have talked about this? Are there other examples? Does it still happen now, and to what degree? Thanks!! submitted by /u/barbiethebuilder [link] [comments]

I understand that with most small and mid tier groups the agencies are 100% in charge of which brands the group will promote. But for bigger groups, do they get a say in it? Given that different members can have different opinions on promoting a certain product, does the company have the final say even with big groups? Ive always been interested in how much brand deals play a role in k-pop. I think for individual deals it makes sense cause it's probably 80% the company and 20% the idol's say in it but for group ones what happens if a few are really against it? Is it just part of their contract to advertise anything their company signs them up for? submitted by /u/PrimaryTomato3310 [link] [comments]

I recently DJed a mix here on SoundCloud that includes primarily 3rd through 5th gen K-pop from some of my favorite girl groups with villain / god complex vibes! submitted by /u/tedendipity [link] [comments]
