I’ve used both for years, and I’ve come to a firm conclusion. YT Music is the superior platform compared to Spotify. Both have their UI issues, so I won’t get into that. The biggest and most important difference between the two is their shuffling algorithm and YT Music completely clears Spotify in that regard. I don’t know who modeled Spotify’s algorithm, but it’s just not good, it's SO basic. YT Music, on the other hand, actually caters to your taste much better and gives solid recommendations, something I can’t say for Spotify. I’ve discovered so many songs and artists through YT Music that I never would have found on Spotify. Another huge plus is that you can add videos and unofficial released songs on YT Music. I love me some great covers idols have done. Oh, and no ads on YT is nice too. When it comes to Kpop, I’d give the upper hand to YT Music. What about you guys? Which platform do you usually listen on? I’d love to hear different opinions on this. submitted by /u/Acrobatic_Prize_7749 [link] [comments]

Saw Victon Subin in the center in What I Said mv and was captivated by that gaze. Had to find out who he was immediately. Anyone ever experience this? Doesn’t have to be a visual moment, could be a vocal moment or a meme even. submitted by /u/Lilac-Soul [link] [comments]

“We want our artists to try out the blockchain system behind Modhaus’s platform ‘COSMO’ and also give them a chance to invest wisely. This new way of paying artists will be the first of its kind in the global entertainment industry and a step toward the Web3 era.” Modhaus also recently launched “Objects,” special photocards that mix physical and digital features. Fans can get and keep these cards through the official COSMO app, and even trade them with each other. They also set up a system where money earned from Objects is counted separately and paid to the artists first. People see this as a meaningful step to fix unfair payment issues that have been a problem in K-pop. Modhaus said artists will get their payments in Bitcoin or Ethereum, based on the profit split agreed with them. what? submitted by /u/tresnosliramu22 [link] [comments]

Despite the large number of debuts in the past two years, I've noticed some of the rookie groups are struggling to even get 100-200K spotify streams for debut. Ex: IZNA Mamma Mia - 110,579 TWS Head Shoulders Knees - 85,172 Hearts2Hearts Pretty Please - 193,665 KiiiKiii Dancing Alone - 77,973 Even though the rookie era is supposed to be the most explosive time of general interest, it feels like most groups are struggling and haven't broken through outside of maybe having a dedicated fandom. This comes in sharp contrast to 3-4 years ago when Spotify debuts were 800,000 - 2 million for new groups. 800,000 is very rare now and even semi-established groups this year are only hitting a target of 400,000 - 800,000. The exceptions are HYBE groups which have always had wide audience reach since they have BTS in their ecosystem and the leading 4th gen girl groups Aespa, IVE, and LSF. Besides that, the only true hit we've had this year is Golden which is from an animated show, not a kpop group. Why do you think idol groups struggling to capture interest so much right now? Personally, I've heard complaints that the music isn't innovative and I agree. I miss provocative projects like NCT, Red Velvet, WJSN, Newjeans, Seventeen, Winner, Loona. It felt like kpop groups had more defined brands before. You could define them in a phrase like "girl group that has fresh innocent nature-based concepts and aesthetic formations" (Gfriend) or "boy group with easy listening tropical EDM/trap songs" (Winner) or "group that has cheeky songs poking at female objectification with various metaphors" (EXID) but now it's harder to distinguish concepts. For example, how would you distinguish the concept of BND from RIIZE or IDNTT? Other times, the groups simply feel like remakes of a company's previous groups like Hearts2Hearts with SNSD, MEOVV/Babymonster with Blackpink/2NE1, Treasure with iKon, etc. Personally, it gets to a point where I don't feel that much excitement about comebacks from different groups because I either don't understand their vague brand or it feels like something I've already seen before. The most innovative things kpop companies doing nowadays is just trying to cut corners or find new business models with AI. The other thing is simply localization and fusion groups. Instead of looking to create something with broad appeal, they try to nail down a target demographic. There are also dozens of survival shows. Even big company debuts need a survival show nowadays. It seems that the goal right now is to maximize efficiency instead of artistic experimentation. Why do you guys think kpop companies aren't taking risks anymore while debuting rookie groups at a faster pace? These groups are still being promoted at music shows and variety shows. They are doing tiktoks to promote their song and hope it goes viral but despite these efforts, the interest is not there and it's hard to find a promotion strategy that actually works. Is kpop just going to keep dying or what would it take to change this current landscape? submitted by /u/hulumantra [link] [comments]

I remember K-Pop idols being asked the same question and most of em say flat out say no. Are they in the right? Or are they wrong to deny them their dreams submitted by /u/No-Vehicle1562 [link] [comments]

Bang PD’s tax fraud case isn’t getting the reaction that the Bunnies and Mys expected. They’re kind of freaking out about it, but the truth is no Hybe group fandom really cares about that man, he’s actually widely hated by all fandoms. I don’t know where they got the idea that people adore him. BTS literally has a diss track about him (made pre-debut). As for the idols having pictures with him, it’s simply because he’s one of their bosses (if you’ve read anything about Korean work culture, you know what I mean). That doesn’t directly mean the idols like him... It seems like they wanted Hybe idols to show support for him, the same way NewJeans show support for Min Hee-jin, which thankfully didn’t happen. They also expected this to ruin Hybe’s reputation, but in reality it didn’t affect the company at all. If you don’t believe me, just look up Hybe’s stock values. K-media even reported that this is very unlikely to happen, since the company’s groups are doing well both in and outside of Korea, and with BTS’s comeback coming up, their stock market will stay strong. So to me, this all just looks like a setup to generate more hate towards Hybe idols (who have nothing to do with this). It’s basically them being mad that Bang PD didn’t try to use the company’s artists to gain the public’s sympathy like… certain people did. submitted by /u/Visual-Ad7631 [link] [comments]

genuine question about other groups: are they having their clothes rip often? I don't keep up with a lot of groups, but Seventeen literally keeps having wardrobe malfunctions at concerts/stages. I know they're a high intensity group that are always jumping, and I guess technically it's not necessarily that constant of a rate, but every few concerts fans will report "someone ripped his pants onstage" and it's usually Mingyu and reportedly it happened to him again at a pre-recording lmao. Maybe in the last year when I started following SVT consistently, I can count like 7 incidents off the top of my head, which might not be a lot for how many performances they do and how many of them there are, but I don't know how many is expected. Anyway are my guys just cursed or have there been other groups experiencing clothing issues? I'm not asking anyone to embarrass their idols or cite specific incidents, I just kinda wanna know what the issue might be and how the clothes are being sourced. Also, if it's a consistent issue considered typical, or if there's been an increase in malfunctions in recent years you've noticed. submitted by /u/SomeRaceHorseName [link] [comments]

Mingyu and Scoups just released a unit album, and during its promotion, Mingyu has said, that he was actually hoping to have a solo album. Hoshi and Woozi (who released a unit album before enlistment) also expressed wanting to release solo albums and right before Jeonghan and Wonwoo enlisted, they too released a unit album, but ALSO expressed some confusion over being teamed up for a unit. Seventeen is over 10 years old, they rake in money for Pledis, and have generated profit and kept Pledis afloat since 2020. So its quite odd Pledis is pairing them off before enlistment to put out unit albums, that the members, seemingly...didnt really want? This is confusing business strategy to me..but also weird approach to artist management. Wonwoo, Mingyu, Jeonghan are some of the most popular members-they could sell blank CD's. Pledis is now 80% owned by Hybe so they have the financial and physical resources to produce these solo albums..but have confusedly, not done so What do you think the reason could be? submitted by /u/127ncity127 [link] [comments]
