AllDay Project has had one of the biggest debuts in kpop domestically in recent years. Theyre one of the few rookie groups to have their debut song go no.1 on melon. Pretty sure I saw a picture of the members at a gucci event recently and in general have been blowing up in sk. Honestly this has been one of the biggest shocks for me cause I wasn't expecting a coed group let alone a tbl group to have one of the biggest debuts of all time. I know internationally theres a lot of mixed reactions with the members especially tarzzan and idk how big theyre going to get or if this will be a kiof pt2 but im genuinely shocked with how well the group's done in sk. is it just the music? a lot of rookie groups have a similar yg hiphop sound like babymonster for example but what made Famous and even Wicked so big? also is this going to start a new trend of returning back to 3rd gen hiphop heavy music after the current 5th gen sound thats filled with more easy listening boy/girl next door concepts? submitted by /u/PrimaryTomato3310 [link] [comments]

For reference, I got in to K-Pop around 2019/2020, I only stan BTS, but casually listen to many other groups including Twice, Blackpink, TXT, Shinee, STAYC, Le Sserafim, and NewJeans. As you can imagine, when I discovered BTS, Twice and Blackpink it's like it opened a whole new world of pop music for me - the Western influence was there but the sound was still very distinct imo. I would say around the end of 2022/start of 2023, after K-Pop experienced a huge international boom, I felt like the music started sounding a lot more globalised and less distinctive from Western pop music from my perspective - and I'm totally open to being wrong about this. BTS also started enlisting, and I wouldn't call classify their solo music as K-Pop. I know some people find it a problematic phrase, but simply from a sound perspective, I felt like was losing the K in K-Pop, and though I still followed the genre and found songs that I liked, I was definitely less invested than I was initially, and also sharing the music less. I don't know whether I just oversaturated with K-Pop back then, whether the K-Pop sound has somewhat returned, or whether I've just gotten used to the more global sounding K-Pop, but for some reason I'm really starting to love and be fond of some of the newer outputs this year, and it's making me want to explore K-Pop again, some of the tracks I really love are: Katseye - Gameboy, Gnarly (not my favorite, but I love how experimental it sounds) All Day Project - Famous, Wicked Girlset - Commas Ateez - Lemon Drop (love the dance more, but the song's not bad), In Your Fantasy (love this track and it's really making me want to listen to more Ateez, so I'm open to any recommendations from Atinys Plave - Way 4 Luv (adding in because I just recently discovered them). Since my curiosity has been peaked again, I wonder whether there are rookie groups people have been getting into and would recommend, I'm not familiar with many of the rookie groups currently. submitted by /u/Rookie18 [link] [comments]

I guess it depends whether they choose a stadium or arena but i have a feeling they’ll do arenas. Older kpop groups tend to underestimate their fame especially globally and always end up performing at smaller venues. My guess is VIP tix - floor = at least 1k-1.5k? Since gdragon’s solo world tour right now the floor tix went for $750. resale went up to 2k. Maybe for nosebleeds it might be $150-$200 ish? I’m trying to save up NOWWWW, im not missing out on this once in a lifetime opportunity lol This year is almost over already so big bang’s 2026 tour feels so close 🫣🫣🫣🫣. im a HUGEEE VIP and i can not fucking waaaait submitted by /u/Which_Mammoth9402 [link] [comments]

I love seeing curly hairstyles in Kpop; we don't see curly hair nearly enough in my opinion, so let's share some of our favorite curly and wavy looks! Photos in order: Minnie from i-dle Tzuyu from Twice Seohyun from Girls Generation Suho from Exo Mingyu from Seventeen Yeosang from Ateez submitted by /u/Kmadd25 [link] [comments]

Every time i see an “unpopular opinion,” its not so unpopular lol its a very popular opinion. does anyone have an actual unpopular & controversial opinion about Kpop? Mine is that people claim to be so worried and concerned when kpop idols visibly struggle with ED but turn around and call Twice jeongyeon fat every week and tell her to get a new stylist when its her body that y’all dont like. not her clothes lol 90% of the kpop fans claim they dont agree with the strict diet culture yet fatshame the hell out of jeongyeon, AKMU suhyun, Red velvet Joy & IVE liz (back in the days) etc. THIS is why kpop companies are never going to stop destroying idols health and force ED onto them because they SEE how y’all be acting when an idol gains a little bit of weight. The truth is that most of y’all wouldnt even be into kpop if they werent underweight-skinny, skin bleached and have plastic surgery head to toe. submitted by /u/Which_Mammoth9402 [link] [comments]

I’m in my early-mid 20’s and personally everyone around my age absolutely love new jeans lol i also live in socal and we have a HUGE kpop community here. i’ve genuinely never met anyone who doesnt like new jeans but on the internet it seems like such a crazy amount of people hate them & cant stand them which is really shocking to me It seems like it’s mainly because of the whole legal case they got going on, which most people my age just doesnt keep up with things like that or care tbh So genuinely curious, i wonder what the average age group of the new jeans haters are submitted by /u/Which_Mammoth9402 [link] [comments]
