English is not my first language, so I apologize in advance. While watching K-Pop Demon Hunters, there was a moment that caught me completely off guard: a few seconds of the song “Come Back to Me” by Deux played faintly in the background. It happens at minute 11, and the music is audible for about 8 seconds. It’s quick, layered under dialogue, and easy to miss — but for those who know the song, the voice and melody are unmistakable. It was such a brief moment, but it made me stop breathing. Who were Deux? Deux (듀스) was a groundbreaking K-pop duo active from 1993 to 1995, made up of Lee Hyun Do and Kim Sung-Jae. They were among the first to blend Western-style hip hop, R&B, and new jack swing into Korean pop — a sound and aesthetic that would later become fundamental to K-pop as we know it. Their style was bold and streetwise, their choreography ahead of its time, and their music resonated with a generation seeking something new. Songs like “Turn Around and Look at Me (나를 돌아봐)” remain iconic, especially among early K-pop fans. Who was Kim Sung-Jae? After Deux disbanded, Kim Sung-Jae launched a solo career full of promise. But just one day after his solo debut, he was found dead in his hotel room at age 23. The autopsy revealed traces of a veterinary tranquilizer. His girlfriend at the time was arrested as a suspect, later convicted, and then controversially acquitted. The full truth never came out. His sudden death remains one of the most tragic and mysterious chapters in K-pop history. Yet despite the silence around his story, his influence continues. He was a visionary artist with rare charisma and vulnerability. Many younger idols and fans may never have heard of him, but to those who remember — he is unforgettable. Why that scene hit so hard What moved me wasn’t just the song, but when it played. It happens just as the protagonists step off the stage, leaving behind the bright lights and entering the darker, unseen parts of the performance space. To me, it felt like more than a musical choice — it felt symbolic. That quiet shift — from spotlight to shadow — mirrors the life and legacy of Kim Sung-Jae: someone who once shone so brightly, and then disappeared under circumstances that still haunt us. Maybe it was just a coincidence. But if this was a deliberate choice, it was a gentle, hidden tribute. One that says: we haven’t forgotten. Has anyone else noticed this moment? Do you think it was intentional — or just a beautiful accident?

Maybe that’s the reason I like it as it’s been the first solo bts release to catch my attention. I came across the song on social media,mainly from dance challenges and I thought it’s quite catchy. I feel like it’s an upbeat version of lisa’s rockstar. Both songs have similar vibes to me along with their music videos. I don’t know how to explain and it’s not meant as a drag either,I just feel like the songs are in some way connected to each other musically . I loved rockstar and I’m glad to find songs with similar vibes. I honestly wish j-hope goes down this route even though I noticed from reddit threads this song wasn’t as well received as his previous ones (which I haven’t listened so I don’t have an opinion). The choreography is also really good. I wish I could learn it but it’s really difficult and I’ve never danced in my life. The dance challenges really drew me into the song submitted by /u/Alive-Pitch-9180 [link] [comments]

ITZY. Yes, I know- MBMB for this. But hear me out: what if the recent debacle with ITZY is part of the new BLU:M strategy for them. They’ve reached a point where literally anything they put out is going to be heavily critiqued online—whether it has GP appeal or not. That much should be clear by now. So what if they’re leaning into that narrative instead of fighting it? Take the latest MV—minimal ads, but 90M+ views on IG. That kind of performance spike doesn’t fully make sense, and it’s become a talking point online. Maybe it is organic. But if it’s not, maybe it’s a deliberate play to generate more attention. The more people say “ITZY is flopping,” because of this, the more people are paying attention. Even hate engagement is engagement. And individual members (Ryujin, Yuna, even Yeji) seem to be positioned more clearly now for solo trajectories—Ryujin and Yuna with acting, and possibly Yeji with her next solo comeback. Individually the hate is minimal and they have great reputations in the industry from what we can see. ITZY have a strong stable fanbase, post-sneakers, which acts as a buffer. The “group flop” angle is being used to subtly shift the focus from the group as a unit to the individual brands. Because there is no way in hell, ITZY or management don't know what ppl say about them online. What I think is that they will continue to make music catered to their own fanbase, but do random things like this to stir hate and stay relevant as "flops". Disclaimer: I am not saying they are "flops" but going of mass opinion online. Just an idea , but curious what others think. Do you think this is a stretch, or is there some logic here from a PR/social media standpoint? submitted by /u/Glum_Significance834 [link] [comments]

Yes i want to stan them again because i really love their music and their concept, but hadn't been interacting with them since what happened with the live, and i just saw that Julie made another apology video, and i'm not an african-american so i wanted to know what the ppl who were hurt by this thought about this and did they accepted the video as an apology cuz i had exams at that time and couldn't see what ppl thought. submitted by /u/Mountain_Web_8772 [link] [comments]

The rules are: 1. The soloist must be a part of (or at the time of the song release) an active group that has comebacks, goes on tours or promotes as a group(E.g BTS, Blackpink) 2. Can be a song that they covered rather than their own (e.g Enhypen Jake - I don't think i'm okay) My personal favourites are 1. Raise y_our glass (original) and Last Christmas (original by Wham!) by Huh Yunjin (Le Sserafim) 2. All of me (original by John Legend) and What other people say (original by Demi Lovato and Sam Fischer) by Pharita (Babymonster) 3. Look alive (original by Joyner Lucas) by Asa(Babymonster) 4. Fine by Taeyon (SNSD) 5. Hard to Love by Rosé (Blackpink) 6. Maria by Hwasa (Mamamoo) submitted by /u/AvocadoFun3905 [link] [comments]
