Yumeki is my bias in Boys Planet 2 and here’s why more people should support him.

Ever since the hallyu wave + the rise of kpop groups from 2016. We can clearly see in recent years how the rapid increase of idol groups debuting has become. I've noticed in recent years how the entertainment companys are constantly debuting new groups but they are forgotten after few years and get less and less promo. submitted by /u/shadow_scar1122 [link] [comments]

Why are people still voting for and supporting minors to debut in idol groups? We’re talking about kids who are 14, 15, 16 years old entering one of the most intense and toxic industries, where they’re expected to perform at adult levels, handle extreme schedules, and endure nonstop scrutiny online. In today’s cyber world, even adult idols struggle with the overwhelming number of comments, hate, pressure to be perfect, and overexposure. How can a literal child deal with that? Some of the idols who debuted at a young age have spoken out later about missing out on childhood friendships, normal school life, and even their teenage years because they were pushed into the spotlight so early. They had no time to grow up like regular kids. That’s not something you can ever get back. It’s honestly wild to me that we’re normalizing it cheering for them, calling them “icons” or “naturals,” when in reality they’re just too young to be thrown into this kind of spotlight. There’s a reason we have age limits in most professional fields to protect people from harm they may not be ready for. I’m not saying they can’t train sure, if someone wants to prepare behind the scenes while they grow up, that’s great. But debuting and being marketed publicly, sometimes even in provocative ways? That’s crossing a line. Shouldn’t there be a clear age limit like 18+ for debuting in idol groups? Would love to hear your thoughts. Am I alone in thinking this? submitted by /u/Renebae1991 [link] [comments]

I am always on the hunt for more kpop/kband music to listen to soooo here I am! Please comment ONE SONG that you love which you think is underrated or slept on! It can be a random bside, a Japanese release, a nugu group/soloist, a title track that didn’t quite soar, or anything in between. There’s no criteria or genre restriction so feel free to throw anything out there! It would also be fun if you gave a little blurb about your submission’s artist especially if they’re pretty unknown. :) I’ll be adding everyone’s submissions to a Spotify playlist so I can try to always listen to something new! Please only send one song, I will skip your comment or ask you to pick one if you send multiple! There won’t be any repeats, so I’ll try to reply to you if someone already submitted your song! I would love for this to be a nice collaborative playlist for everyone in the sub! Here’s the link to the playlist if anyone is also interested in saving it. To start us off, my addition is going to be DROP TOP by Soojin! For those who don’t know, she’s a former member of (G)I-DLE/i-dle and has since debuted as a soloist (and she has a cb and tour coming soon!). Thank you kpoppers 🫶 submitted by /u/rnagikrnike [link] [comments]

I sang half of them lines cuz it's a duet, you can duet me on Smule sing with me ect. Anyways, watch me outsing them vocalists with belts, whistles and extremely complex riffsnruns. Yeah I'm flexing, Gospel background btw. Enjoy. PS: Some flat notes and incomplete runs because it's raw unautotuned and I didn't bother wasting my braincells to make it perfect or intentional.

This could be a spicier topic so let’s keep it respectful please and try not to be offended!! Let’s chat in good faith and take all of these comments with a sense of humor, cuz we all know those outside of the kpop sphere just don’t get it like we do ;) Has a non-kpop fan friend or family member ever commented on something within kpop without a filter, whether it’s good or bad? Because they come from an outside perspective, in my experience they tend to be more brutally honest lol… For example: My non-kpop friend said kpop boys are not manly-looking enough for her so I took that as a challenge to find one she’d find attractive. I showed her a pic of San and she said “no he’s ugly” and I nearly cried lmao. 😭 she was exaggerating cuz she’s my bff but it hurt my soul. Same friend, who is Chinese and knows of Lay from a Chinese non-kpop perspective, described him as cringe and dumb. 😭 Neutral comment from another friend: “who’s that vampire?” (Referring to Vernon in a stage performance. Lol idk why.) Showed another friend the mv for Aju Nice: (referring to Jun) “he looks like he’s trying to cosplay a white guy.” Me, Jun biased: that’s just what he looks like 😠 My mom: “he’s cute (referring to Jin in Dope mv) but I can’t really tell them apart.” submitted by /u/Lilac-Soul [link] [comments]

We all love our fav groups alright? But let's be real rn, what's something they do that icks you no matter what. I mean, we certainly can look away when we need to and they don't really have to change it for us lol, but when you see it.. you cringe nonetheless. I'll start. This goes for a lot of boygroups (unfortunately), but the group I stan also does this. It's when they change the dance to be more "manly" when they're collabing with girl groups. Like.. embrace the choreo please 😭. It's just a dance. Dancing like how they do aint gonna take away your masculinity. It's literally more fun to see male idols embracing the choreo like a boss. submitted by /u/Apprehensive-Turn230 [link] [comments]

I am kinda curious. From 3rd gen to 4th and newer gen K-pop groups like SEVENTEEN, NCT, TWICE, Stray Kids,... which idols do you think have the potential to become actors/actresses? Like... I know Dahyun from TWICE is the leading female in You Are the Apple of My Eye, and Jun from 17 is an actor in China... It would be kinda amazing to see some SVT members in some comedy love, high school drama or Stray Kids in a thriller, psychological drama (this just came up into my head based on their content and their music that I have listened to)... submitted by /u/LongjumpingPage6168 [link] [comments]

I'm a Baltimore resident who couldn't go bc of my work schedule. But like, our trash collection has been on modified schedule for the past few weeks minimum bc the heat is an active danger to city workers' health. Hell, all of DMV has been dealing with 100⁰F weather for the past few weeks. So hosting a concert in this situation was already negligence towards the health of everyone in the venue. The water situation is gross negligence. So, here's the deal: JYP site has a contact form on their site. Use the "reporting issues on business ethics" option and write about your experience in DC. If you have footage and/or medical treatment records, offer to supply them. Mention that the concert has made local news that are Google indexed. Describe the actions of these partners as "damaging to the brand and grounds for personal injury lawsuits in US" to trip JYP lawyers' spidey senses. Live Nation is a monopoly, so they can prob eat the personal injury lawsuits from concert attendees. But we can try to pressure the label into pursuing legal action against them and stadium management. And maybe they can make Live Nation compensate DC ticket holders. submitted by /u/Unheroic_ [link] [comments]

Guys, I need to gush with people over XLOV. They are truly blowing my mind with this concept. First - the songs. 1&only is genuinely such an amazing song - it's sensual, groovy, and has the magic that takes me back to second / third gen sound. Their vocals are also distinct and sound amazing. My only gripe is the lyrics (papi chulo?) but they are camp in the way I love kpop lyrics to be camp, so I'll let it slide. The genderless concept is groundbreaking. It honestly is. They have told fans at fansigning they truly don't care what gender you refer to them as - they embody so much feminine AND masculine energy, seem incredibly confident in themselves and just ready to break down a huge wall that has been in this industry. I feel like they are the queer rep I have always longed for - true, genuine queer rep. Their concept may be genderless, but their concept isn't queer - THEY are queer, and so it feels so much more authentic. EDIT - Also, they have expressed that they won't ask people to do challenges with them, because they understand how their choreography can be viewed and don't want other idols to feel uncomfortable. This is a whole convo in itself. Also, they are heavily involved in their own artistry! From concept to styling to even music production. They are doing this because they feel empowered by it. But what has me most floored right now is the choreography. I'm sure most have seen 1&only - it's gone viral everywhere, and is what drew my attention in. I don't know who they hired for this, but they absolutely nailed it - every member shines and it suits the song perfectly: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A5udJg2vAi4&t=1s But what I need to talk about because I cant find anyone on reddit talking about it, is the choreo for Bizness: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AzpMVYZZqdU&list=RDAzpMVYZZqdU&start_radio=1 Here's a live performance of it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=prR9miCSDlg&list=RDprR9miCSDlg&start_radio=1 This is the definition of when amazing choreo can SELL a song. The transition from "stay out of my business" to "dance" - ICONIC. Gosh I am just gushing over them. Have you checked them out yet? Thoughts? submitted by /u/hanniehae1005 [link] [comments]

Jessi is finally set to drop a new song. What is everyone's thoughts on it? Teaser link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6H1-B7HX_sE For me I think based from what is in the video, that it will be a diss track with several nods to her portrayal in kmedia recently . The MV teaser is giving and the tone seems to be similar to What Type of X or Nunu Nana, and so far i quite like it. However, the question is how will the kmedia and k gp react? Do you think she will face a backlash again? submitted by /u/MasterHospital [link] [comments]
