Though I’m greater fan of J-rock, K-pop is becoming more and more popular. Which artists do you prefer? What do you think of the K-pop scene? Are there any singers you would like to introduce? What do you think of the antagonistic rivalries between fans of different groups?
I love this video—the song, video concept, dance, colours and costumes all work together well. The song is by Lee Suhyun (from the brother-sister duo AKMU). Though it is called ‘Alien’, the song is really about developing self-esteem.
These days, I have also been listening to MAMAMOO. I like their song Wind Flower best. It is about recovering after a heartbreak. This video is set in Hong Kong and is influenced by the cinematography in the films of Wong Kar-wai (e.g., Chungking Express). Most K-pop is influenced by R&B, but this song is seems more heavily influenced by soul, so I wonder if it might sound a little old-fashioned to younger people. I like the way the four different singers have their own singing style, personality and image.
How about the boys then? Let’s go for Dyamite by BTS. It has a retro funk sound that reminds me a little of Uptown Funk by Bruno Mars. There’s so much positive energy in the song and video.
Let’s listen to IU!
These days I like some less famous artists like Minsu, Kim Sawol and So Se Neon
How about you? What are you listening to these days? These days, it seems that a lot of performers (e.g., the members of New Jeans and Baby Monster) are having their professional debuts at a young age. What do you think about this trend?

My favourite kpop group is Stray Kids and my bias is Felix. I love Felix’s deep voice very much. Felix is a very happy person overall and i really think the nicknames ‘sunshine’ and ‘happiness’ fit him so well. My favourite song of Stray Kids is Miroh, the chorus is really addictive to me. As the third world tour of Stray Kids is coming, I’m really looking forward to go to their concert. Wish me good luck on buying their tickets!
listening to kpop is now one of the popular trend within teenagers. girl groups such as NEW JEANS , IVE ,AESPA have gain lots of fans no matter in asia or european countries.we can hear kpop when we walk along streets or entering shops.
now let mke share one of my favourite kpop music, which is a song by BOL4(some). this isn’t a common song from popular groups. but when i listen to this song i feel relaxed and the lyrics are quite interesting. it mentioned a relationship between a girl and a boy , they are not couple but they do things thatonly couple do and text each other nonstop.
this is a song that i will recommend to all kpop lovers and non-kpop lovers
Personally, my favourite Kpop group is Kep1er. I love them so so much! They’re all willing to work so hard for their dreams and are amazing people. Allow me to say, they’re one of the most synchronized 4th gen girl groups. I just wanna say that they’re hilarious, watching their content truly make my day. The girls have a special bond with each other and consider the group as family which is really sweet. I really wish they were a permanent group and can stay tOgether fOrever (as their song says). It’s sad that they may not have much time left as a group, I hope I can see them at least once irl before their contract ends. Also, I’ve actually never met another Kep1ian which is…sad (again).
Anyways, STAN KEP1ER FOR CLEAR SKIN-
Well, my favourite k pop group is Seventeen, they dance well and sing well. K pop music makes me feels relax some times and forgot about what am I worrying. about.
seventeen is a fabulous male group which are famous for their dance. 13 of them dance the exact same dance and can synchronize the moves which is very amazing and professional
Same! I also love seventeen. They are so talented, and they are self-producing idols.
I have been a K-pop fan for quite a long time since 2018. My favourite team is Seventeen. Although they are called SEVENTEEN, there are just 13 people in this team. They are divided into three teams: vocal team, hip-pop team and performance team. They are all good at both dancing and singing so I think they all can be called ‘Ace’.
For me, chasing stars has always been about them giving me strength or accompanying me through low moments. Such is the case with Seventeen. I love the way they come together to have fun and how they always try hard. Like they say:
※”We started from the basement and built a tall building”
They encouraged me a lot when I was down. When I listen to their music, I feel that all the stress is gone and I am not lonely all the time. Seventeen are always staying with Carats. They are the light in my life and I’ve never regretted being a Carat. Hope they can be healthy in 2024 and won’t be sick and injured anymore!
It’s wonderful to hear about your deep connection with Seventeen and how they have been a source of strength and companionship for you. I am also a carat; since 2020, they have been company with me since the COVID time. They embody the spirit of hard work and unity, constantly inspiring their fans with their talent and dedication. It’s heartwarming to know that their music has the power to alleviate your stress and bring you joy, reminding you that you’re not alone. As a carat, I believe both you and I hope their journey continues to shine brightly in 2024. Keep supporting them and cherishing the light they bring into your life as a Carat!
Nowadays, K-pop is very popular among the world. I am also a fan of K-pop and I would like to share one of my favourite Korean girl group with you.
My favourite K-pop girl group is IVE. This girl group is formed by six members: Gaeul ,Yujin, Rei, Wonyoung, Liz and Leeseo. The leader of this group is Yujin. They debuted in 01/12/2021 with the song Eleven. Afterwards, they released the song Love Dive, After Like, I am, Baddie, etc. My most favourite song are Love Dive and I am. In the song Love Dive, IVE has shown some difficult dance movements which proves that they have great dacing skills. In the song I am, they can sing the high notes with their beautiful voice which also shows their strong vocals. Because of the catchy melody and the dancing , I was attracted by IVE immediately, just like ‘Dive into IVE’(Their slogan ).
My bias in IVE is Wonyoung. In my view, she is really a perfect person. She has the gorgeous visual, the positive attitude, also very kind and diligent . However, she is one of the idols that receiving the most hate speeches from netizens because she is really famous and popular, and they are jealous of her. Although she has been received a lot of hate, she can still keep a positive attitude. I really like a sentence said by her: You are you, I am me. This sentence represents that we should not affected by the criticism that are false. Therefore, I love her so much and she is also my role model .
Any Dives here?🙌🏻❤️
Oh my gosh!! I finally successfully found a dive in Form 2! I am a Dive also. I like the music by Ive and I think they are really hard-working and pretty. I love them so much!
My favourite k-pop group is Le Sserafim ( bias is Kazuha ). They are talented and they really put great efforts in their concerts. They faced many challenges before, such as the problems of the members, the copying problems, and the bad comments from some people. But they can still stand out and show their abilities and team-spirit. Also, I liked TXT recently. Both was got forced by my friends!
I also like Le Sserafim very much. My bias is Chaewon. She is really cute and has a good vocal. Also, the main reason I like chaewon is because she is a former of IZ*ONE. I am a WIZ*ONE( IZ*ONE fans) and the most favourite song of IZ*ONE is fiesta. It is a great song with a fantastic melody and amazing dancing. I strongly suggest you to watch their performance of fiesta. My bias in IZ*ONE is Wonyoung who is also a former of IZ*ONE. She is now in IVE and she is now one of the famous idol in K-pop. Hope you will like Wonyoung too!
I also like Le Sserafim very much.I saw their concert in last year.It was fantastic!I love them so much.My bias is sakura.I think she has been in the industry for 12 years and has rich stage experience, but she is not lazy because of this.She also takes good care of his teammates and takes his fans seriously. She is my role model.
My favourite kpop girl group is Le sserafim. I loved their style but I appreciate their hard working more though. They are hard working with practising and keeping themselves fit. Many people just see the beautiful stages of the idols, but easily ignore their hard working. I hope every hard-working person can get what they should have.
I agree to you . Le sserafim is really a very good and hardworking k-pop girl group. I love them too. And their songs are really powerful and brainwashing.
i agree to you too! But actually I like Ive more as one of the members is my favouite K-pop idol! She has great talent on singing and dancing which she is the vocal of the team.
I agree with you as well, Yolanda. I think the songs of IVE are fantastic as well. Jang Wonyoung and An Yujin are my bias in IVE, they are so pretty and their songs are brainwashing ! I am looking forward to seeing their concert in July, I must go and see them !
i agree with you too! Their new songs, Smart and Easy, are really brainwashing!
Yes same! Le Sserafim is powerful, or the other way is they’re cute too! Their songs were really cool, and my favourite song was Blue Flame and Unforgiven!
My favourite K-pop group is LE SSERAFIM. I love Chaewon and Eunchae the most. The members in this girl group are so beautiful ! And their songs are amazing as well, I love the song Unforgiven and Antifragile the most. I hope they will have concert in Hong Kong in the future, I am looking forward to seeing them and I probably a FEARNOT.
One of my favorite groups is Le Sserafim too. I really see their efforts, and I agree with you that they have tried their best to train and keep their voice stable:)
I am just getting into KPOP like, one year ago. SEVENTEEN is my favourite KPOP band because they are SO talented! They write, compose, AND produce their own songs, thanks to musical genius WOOZI, who is my ultimate bias~ Not to mention they have awesome choreography, and songs with touching messages~
OK so let me introduce SEVENTEEN first. The group consists of 3 subunits— vocal, performance and hip-hop. There are 13 members, S.COUPS, WONWOO, MINGYU, VERNON, HOSHI, THE8, JUN, DINO, WOOZI, DK, SEUNGKWAN, JOSHUA and JEONGHAN.
S.COUPS, WONWOO, MINGYU, VERNON are in the hip-hop unit, HOSHI, THE8, JUN, DINO are in the performance unit, while WOOZI, DK, SEUNGKWAN, JOSHUA and JEONGHAN are in the vocal unit. So why are they SEVENTEEN when they have 13 members? Because 13 members+3 units+1 group= 17 (SEVENTEEN)! By the way, their fandom name is CARAT, which means ‘diamond’!
I love WOOZI, HOSHI and DINO. THEY ARE SO TALENTED! WOOZI is the musical genius and vocal king, while HOSHI and DINO are dance machines.
My favourite songs include their debut song PRETTY U, My my, Don’t wanna cry, Together, Ima- even if the world ends tomorrow, and their newest song God of music (yes, I know, that’s a lot of songs)
Anymore CARATs here? 🙂
I agreed with you. I started to get into K-pop because of my friends and my tutor. They like Blackpink and other girls K-pop groups at first. However, I changed my favourite K-pop group from Blackpink to seventeen and new jeans. Although all the girl is pretty in new Jeans, I love seventeen more.
In 2023 summer holiday, I watched one of the c-drama, and I think that guy is quite handsome. I try to search online and find that the name of him is call Jun. Later on, I discovered that Jun is from the K-pop group called seventeen. And that holiday, I follow their Instagram accounts and watched their videos, listening all the songs. At that time, almost every reels from my instagram is about seventeen. However, my favourite bias is Jun.
I don’t know why I like him so much. Maybe I think he’s so hard-working, he is from China, that’s why I can see that drama and know him. He is an underage film star.
He has to learn a lot Korean and stay at Korea all the time.
My favourite song is Super, rock with you, Kidult and Hot. Their all songs are so catchy that always want to dance when I’m listening the song. Their vocals are really so good, although they are all mans, they can sing the notes so high. Their singing skills and dacing movement are really so ferocious. The lyrics is very meaningful.
I was so touched when they got different awards. When I felt lonely or sad, i will listen to their songs and watch their videos to make myself feel better. I hope they all are happy and healthy always.
Recenty, many kpop groups came out, such as Le sserafim, New jeans, Nmixx. i love Le sserafim the most. Because they sang and dance well. Also, their friendship is very good, their vlog on youtube is hilarious. My favourite song is Antifragile, the song is strong and melody was wonderful. Overall, Kpop is very popular in these days, I hope there will have more new groups.
Yes I really agree with you! Kpop is definitely the leading trend right now, especially many talented 4th genertion groups debuted these days. My favourite girl group is also Le Sserafim! The girls are really born to perform. They have very stable vocals and can carry many challenging choreographies. And I love how they delivered the message of being strong!
Cant deny that kpop has become a famous and important job scope nowadayssss. Students are talking about kpop and you can always find automatic suggestions for kpop. Lesserafirm which you mentioned is becoming more and more famous!!!!! Im totally brainwashed by their songs. If you are a veteran of kpop, you must know gidle, izone, kiss of life, IU, 17 etc. We can all get energy and encourages from the lyrics. Definitely cant live without kpop!!
K-pop is definitely a popular trend nowadays between teenagers. I have been a K-pop lover since 2021. Besides their visual, their vocal and performance makes me admire them. I used to follow a lot of K-pop groups, but BTS is the one and only favorite group for me.
From being a swag-wielding hip-hop group, BTS has grown to be very versatile artists with a deep, underlying message in every song. For instance, their songs don’t simply tell you to love yourself and face your fears but that it’s also important to acknowledge negative feelings. Apart from their music, the group has also been active in raising social awareness as in the Love Myself campaign with UNICEF. They’re role models and a source of inspiration for people of all ages. K-pop isn’t just random songs and performances that makes people feels happy, it means a lot more to me.
I love BTS too. I love RM the most. He is the leader of BTS and he sings very good. He is creative, imaginative, and empathetic.
When I saw the topic, I Clicked on this page without hesitation. Watching the passage and various comments that share their opinions, I am on cloud nine to see many like-minded students online. I’m definitely a K-pop fan! Now, I’m going to share my experience and some comprehension of the whole K-pop culture.
First, let me introduce the basic ideas of K-pop. It is a king of Korean culture, including styles and genres from around the world, such as pop, hip hop, R&B, and jazz. However, nowadays, the most popular one is the pop song due to its simple melody and various style.
There are usually two types of musicians: singers and idols. What are the differences between them? First, although they both have to sing songs, singers can simply focus on singing while idols have to handle singing and dancing, sometimes even rapping. Second, idols pay more emphasis on interaction with fans.
In K-pop, the company act an important role. There’s a type of person called scout in the company, who find some talented people and convince them to be trainees. During the trainee process, the company will arrange various courses, and depending on their performance, formulate the direction of their debut (whether they will become an idol or a singer, solo or form as a team). After that, their songs making, endorsement Resources and stage performances are all arranged by the company. Therefore, I think a company is a key to determining the life of an artist. If you want to become an artist, do some research carefully and choose your best company!
How do we call the persons who exhibit strong interest or admiration for the artists? We called them fans. Fans can be roughly divided into three categories. First, normal fans, people who show occasional interest in the artists, will listen to their musical work. Then, huge fans, whose will start to focus on the schedule of artists, such as the variety shows they participated in and the stage. They will also buy albums. Last, loyal fans, who may probably buy their artists’ all albums, and will start to make supporting goods, buy their merch like light sticks, banners and endorsement products, and join concerts, tours and fan meetings. The more the fans like their artists, the more time and money they spend. Personally, I’m a huge fan!
In this industry, fans, artists and companies are connected and form a circle. Companies nourish artists and support their debut; artists improve their strength and bring out good works; fans spend their time and money to support their artists, giving capital to the companies so that their artists can have richer resources. Certainly, there are also other roles in this industry, for example, advertisers and music program producers, promoting the development of the entire industry.
Now, after introducing the ideas of K-pop, I want to talk about some artists’ hardships that most people would probably don’t know about. Since I have less understanding of singers, in this section, I would only talk about idols.
When we talk about idols, most people’s first impression of them is popular, have a good appearance, and are rich. After watching the following passages, you may change your mind.
Before you become a popular idol, you have to put many efforts.
Nowadays, the average age of trainees is 12-16 and most of them were underage when they debuted. That means they have to maintain their study and training exercises simultaneously. When I was worried about homework and quizzes, a group of young people who have similar age to me, had to rush between school and the practice room. I feel deeply sorry for them.
You know what? The total population of South Korea is only about 52 million, but the number of local trainees has exceeded 1 million. In the end, only about 1% of the trainees can make their debut. Because of this small chance to debut, the trainees practice very hard every day. Former JYP(One of the biggest companies in the K-pop industry) trainee Kimberly reveals her trainee schedule: start dancing every morning at 9:00 a.m., training for a minimum of 12 hours a day. How tired it is!
Their efforts do not only last for a short period but many years. For example, the company JYP Entertainment has over a hundred girl trainees, but a new girl group will come out only every three years, for about 5-9 persons each time. If you can’t debut, you can only have two choices: stay in the company, keep practicing and waiting for at least three years, or leave the company. Jihyo, a member of JYP Entertainment’s girl group TWICE, had been a trainee since she was 8 years old and practiced for 10 years. They dedicated the whole youth, in exchange for the dream come true.
Don’t think the idols will have a better status and don’t have to be hard-working after their debut. After their debut, they have to prepare for every return, making new songs and dances, to reach a higher standard than before and satisfy their fans. Some popular idols, especially those who come from big companies, have to handle the various itinerary, such as endorsement commercials, MC for variety shows and music shows.
The most tired one of the itinerary is the worldwide tour, which has to travel around the world and open concerts. Over one-third of their time is spent on the plane during these few months. Dozens of concerts have to be carried on, with most of them being over 3 hours. Apart from that, idols have to practice their songs and do a rehearsal for the concerts, which almost spent all of their remaining time. Joshua from SEVENTEEN could only sleep for two hours per day during the tour. Therefore, please abandon the perception that idols don’t need to work hard!
Idols have done a lot of efforts to return the fans. However, some fans let them down. Not only don’t they form to support idols, but some of them may also hurt them.
Sasaeng fans are one of the scariest people in the world, who stalks or engaged in other behaviour constituting an invasion of the privacy of idols. When idols appear in the airport, you can always see a lot of people waiting there. They will run by their side, photoing them and touching them, which makes them feel uncomfortable. This is only one of the examples of sasaeng fans. They will get idols’ information by illegal means, phone calls them, stalk them and even break into their house. Because of their harassment, idols need to wear a hat and mask when going out to avoid others from recognizing them, even if he is not sick and no pandemic is occurring.
Besides, there are also anti-fans. Contrary to sasaeng fans, anti-fans do not worship and love idols but are people who with hatred toward them.
On the internet, one of the characteristics is anonymity, which means they can write anything without any responsibility. This feature benefits the anti-fans to scold and slander the idols. They conduct personal attacks on idols, including personal insults and body shame. The latter especially affects idols’ healthy since idols will do body shape management in unhealthy ways because of anti-fans’ deformed aesthetic treatment. For example, a normal person has a BMI between 18.5 and 23.9, but most of the idols are lower than this average, such as IU, who is underweight with a BMI of 16. She used to eat only one fruit, a potato, and a protein drink all day. It’s terrible! I feel sorry for idols who suffer from body anxiety due to body shaming.
Anti-fans in reality is even more terrifying. They are not hiding on the internet anymore, but hurt idols in the reality and caused substantial damage to them. Some idols have received death threats many times, causing psychological problems and fear of going out for activities. This seriously affects their daily life. An anti-fan mixed all-purpose glue in the juice, pretending to be a makeup artist, and enter the performance venue. She gave this toxic juice to Yunho, the captain of “TVXQ”. After drinking it, Yunho vomited violently and needed to be sent to the hospital for treatment. Honestly, I hate anti-fans very much. They are selfish and display their negative energy on idols. I hope there won’t have anti-fans anymore.
Last, is the misunderstanding about idols’ salaries. Are all idols very rich? Definitely not.
As mentioned earlier, the company will arrange various courses for idols. A staff member of YG Entertainment said that the company invests at least 100 million won (about 600,000 RMB) in a trainee a year, including the rent of the dormitory, meals, transportation, language classes, and acting classes. Since it is an investment, there will be a return. Before earning enough income to cover training fees, idols cannot receive any salaries.
After paying off this debt, the idol’s income will also be limited. For SM Entertainment, 90% of Korean activities, and album revenue is for the company, and the idols can only receive 10%. After that, the group income has to be allocated to everyone in the group. Korean group NCT has 23 members in total, I’m really worried about their income.
The popularity of idols is very different, which affects the salary of idols. According to the statistics of the South Korean Council Finance Commission, 90%of the revenue of their popularity is only 8.7 million won in annual income, which is about 4 months of the salary of normal workers. Many people show BTS and BLACKPINK, the two most popular groups in K-pop as a measurement of idols’ salaries. However, there is only one BTS in K-pop and only one BLACKPINK in K-pop. Since it is called the top, it is what ordinary idols cannot be achieved. Therefore, don’t misunderstand this concept again!
Overall, the difficulties idols are facing are unimaginable. If you are K-pop fans, please love and care about your idols more. If you aren’t, I hope you can know more about K-pop through this passage. I have written so many that I have to stop here. If possible, I may write another article and describe my bias group in detail!
K-pop is getting more popular day by day. Many K-pop songs are known by everyone in the world such as ‘Nobody’ which is sung by Wonder Girls, a K-pop girl group which is under JYP Entertainment. And I am one of the K-pop fans. I have been a K-pop fan since I was Primary five. My favourite K-pop group is Blackpink.They are the members of a Korean idol group which debuted on the 8th of August,2016 called Blackpink. Jisoo is the oldest member of Blackpink. She is Korean and she was born in South Korea. Jennie is the main rapper in the group. She had studied in New Zealand for 5 years since she was 8. Rosé was born in New Zealand and she was raised in Australia. Lisa is Thai and came to Korea in 2011. She is the main dancer of the group. I like them because they sing and dance very well and they are so cool on stage and they look super awesome. Also, I appreciate their effort. They had been trainees when they were small. Some members even left their homes to go to Korea for training.
I am a Blink too! I really love Blackpink as thy are brilliant. They are always the best Kpop group in my heart. Jisoo has the most beautiful face and she is a very hard-working girl. Rose is the best singer and her voice is soft and wonderful like an angel. Lisa is a fantastic dancer with a perfect body. Jennie is a cool rapper with a cute face like a wild cat. The four of them are special and there is no one better than them in my heart. I will love them forever. Blackpink in you area~~~
Kpop trend starts to be popular in these recent years. Since the COVID-19, I have lessons in my home and I have more time to use my electronic devices.I got to know K-pop by listening to their musics. My favourite K-pop group is Twice. There are 9 members totally, and I love tzuyu, the maknae most. Because she is really beautiful! They have many songs which are catchy. For example TT, Cheer Up, What is love? I even learn a bit Korean by just listening to their songs! There are many other popular K-pop goups and artists too, for example BTS, Blackpink, IU, æspa. I really drunk in their musics and choreography!
I seldom listen to K-pop songs. But it interested me during watching the good of K-pop that you wrote in your comment. That great that you can learn things during listening to K-pop. Hope you love your favourite K-pop group forever!
I am a big Twice Fans too! I appreciate them all and I love Jihyo the most. Her voice is powerful! If you would like to, we can share our thoughts and opinions on Twice together:)
The Kpop trend is now being popular day by day, many of my friends have started listening to Kpop songs for several years, including me! My favorite Kpop group is Blackpink which has four members: Jisoo, Jennie, Rosé, and Lisa in the group. Their songs are so amazing that I can’t get those earworms out of my mind. Except for a group or a band, solo artists of Kpop are also popular over the world, such as IU, BoA, ChungHa, Zico, etc. Hope that there will be much more people who are going to get in touch with Kpop songs and artists!
I agree with you that K-pop is very popular these day. Since my friends have started listening to K-pop music. I found that the music is very energetic. I can always gain energy from the powerful beat. Therefore, I always listen to K-pop when I feel upset. Also, the choreography of the music is always cooperating with the rhythm, which is one of the biggest characteristics in K-pop, I think they are literally a perfect match!
I am a Blink too! I really love Blackpink as thy are brilliant. They are always the best Kpop group in my heart. Jisoo has the most beautiful face and she is a very hard-working girl. Rose is the best singer and her voice is soft and wonderful like an angel. Lisa is a fantastic dancer with a perfect body. Jennie is a cool rapper with a cute face like a wild cat. The four of them are special and there is no one better than them in my heart. I will love them forever. Blackpink in you area~~~
K-pop is definitely a trend right now-especially for teenagers. Same for me, I’m also a k-pop fan. My favourite k-pop group is BTS. Their fans are all over the world, no matter in Asia or other countries. In America, they are even as famous as the foreign singers like Billie Ellish, Ariana Grande, etc. Why I like them is they always spread joy and happiness to the fans. Some of the songs are cool and some of them are touching and inspiring, which can fulfill the desires of different fans. My favourite song from BTS is ‘Life Goes On’. It is a song released during Covid-19. It was made to encourage people to go on during the pandemic.
Expect for k-pop groups, k-pop individual singers are also very popular. My favourite k-pop singer is IU. She is very talented. She has taken part in a k-drama called Hotel del luna. But most importantly, she is not only a singing, but also a song writer. Her songs are amazing,especially’ Blueming’. It is very hard to sing because a lot of high notes is in the song. However, due to IU’s talent, she can easily reach those notes which is mind blowing.
K-pop has already influenced tones of people. Their songs also inspired us. I hope more people can know about k-pop and fell in love with them!!
Although I’m a Korean myself and I have heard of K-pop from my primary school friends, the first time I got into K-pop was when I was in Form. 1. One of my friends was really into K-pop and she strongly recommended me to listen to K-pop music. And that’s the start for me stepping inside the world of K-pop.
My favorite group is a girl band called BlackPink(블랙핑크). There are four members in this girl group: Jisoo, Jennie, Rosé and Lisa. This girl group is under YG entertainment, one of the top 3 agencies in Korea, which also produced many popular K-pop groups, such as AKMU(악동뮤지션), Bigbang(빅뱅), Winner(위너) and much more.
BlackPink debuted in 2016, 8th August. Their first song is Boombayah, coming along with Whistle. Their mega-hit song is their song “Ddu Du Ddu Du”, which was released in 2018. It has already reached more than 1 billion views, setting the record as the first K-pop group to reach 1 billion views in YouTube. They have released a total of 10 official music videos until now as a group. Among all of these, I like their song that was released in 2019, “Kill This Love”also a incredibly popular song. The music is very addictive, the rap parts for Jennie and Lisa is also very cool and full of charisma. Also, the sweet angelic vocal of Rosé and the charming vocal of Jisoo are fascinating. The sets inside the music videos and also the clothes that the BlackPink members wore are also impressive. To sum up, the music video was perfect.✨ Jennie has also released a solo song called “Solo” in 2018. Her solo was also a fantastic song. Not only her rap skills, but also her vocal skills were amazing. I highly recommend you to listen to this song when you are free. YG Entertainment also announced that Rosé would also release her solo song soon. I can’t wait to listen to it! 🤩
My favourite member in BlackPink is Jisoo. She is full of charms. She is a strong person and doesn’t show her pain in front of others. She always thinks of her fans and is a warm-hearted person. She is also very pretty! It is confirmed that she will take the female leading role in the K-drama “Snowdrop”
in 2021, and I am full of expectations for her debuts as an actress.😁🎉
Lisa comes from Thailand and also was born there. She is a talented dancer and dances very well. She takes part as the main dancer and the lead rapper in the team. She is also very kind and cute!
Lastly, I’m going to talk about Jennie. She has a big interest in fashion and also is the ambassador of the famous clothes brand Channel. Her visuals are also very attractive and she takes part as the main rapper in the group.
BlackPink has made many records in the K-pop industry and is the most famous K-pop girl group in Korea for now. They have also collaborated with Lady Gaga and Dua Lipa, two artists active in the USA. I am looking forward to their next music video and I hope I can really meet them one day.😁
Fighting BlackPink
Any Blinks here?💦😊
I am a blink too. I love Jisoo the most as her face looks very cute. I can stop looking at her every time I saw her in the internet. Blackpink is really a fantastic K-pop group!
I am a fan of K-pop. I love many K-pop groups. For example BTS, NCT and Twice. But my favourite group is BLACKPINK. BLACKPINK is a South Korean girl group formed by YG Entertainment. BLACKPINK composed of four members Jennie, Lisa, Jisoo and Rose. I love BLACKPINK since 2019. That time I heard a song called ‘Kill this love’. This song was very powerful then I fell in love. The songs I like the most are ‘Lovesick girls’ , ‘As if it’s your last’ and ‘stay’. I suggest you guys to listen. My favourite member is Jennie. She is very pretty and cute. She has her own song ‘solo’. Her voice is perfect and her rap is powerful too.
BLACKPINK IN YOUR AREA ~ 🖤💖😗
Blink here too!

My sisters are K-pop fans and they often listen to K-pop music. Soon after, I also became a K-pop fan. Nowadays, I love listening to K-pop music the most. Also, my friends also love K-pop too. Therefore, we always talk about that. My favourite boys group is NCT. NCT has an unlimited number of members and they have 23 members now. They can all dance and sing very well. They have been divided into multiple sub-units and I love NCT Dream the most. My favourite girls group is CLC. I think they are really talented. I love listening to their songs very much. I hope that there will be more people know them.
Oh my god! I also like NCT too. I also like listening to NCT’s songs. I like their song ‘Resonance’ the most.
I am a K-pop fan too! my favourite
I am a fan of K-pop. I know K-pop when I was 5 years old, the kindergarten used Girls’ Generation’s Oh!as a song for the graduation ceremony. I started listening to K-pop at that time. When I was primary 3, my good friend and I became fans of TWICE together. In primary 5, we became fans of BTS and our relationship became better and better. Now, I still like BTS and I also like IZ*ONE too. It is because I watched the talent show⟨⟨Produce 48⟩⟩. Whenever I listen to K-pop, I always feel very happy and although my friend and I are not in the same secondary school, we always talk about K-pop, so the relationship between us remains the same. I think that if you like K-pop, you can promote the relationship between people!
I also like BTS. I love Suga the most. I think he is talented. Also, I love their songs so much especially ‘Life Goes On’ and ‘Black Swan’. Although I still not become army up till now, I’ve found their personal charisma. Therefore, I think I’ll become army soon.
I am a wiz*one and once too! They are my bias girl group. Unfortunately, IZ*ONE disbanded. Their last song “Panorama” is my favourite song of IZ*ONE. Now, I love Twice and LE SSERAFIM the most! I looped antifragile many times these months.
In recent years, more and more people have the same topic – K-pop. I first heard of K-pop when I was in primary school. However, when I really started paying attention to K-pop was just a year ago. I watched a Korean Drama called “Hotel Del Luna”, and I think that the actress of the main character has excellent acting skills which attracted me very much.
After that, I found that she has both identities of being an actress as Lee Ji-eun and a K-pop singer with the name IU. She urged me to know more about K-pop. The song “Eight” brought out by IU and Suga from BTS is one of my favourite songs as I love the melody very much and the message which the singer and songwriter want to express is impressive with such sentiment.
In the early 2020, the stage of Blackpink “How You Like That” drew my attention again. They gave out a powerful and professional performance.
All of us have experienced a very hard time in 2020. For the time being, the song “Life Goes on” of BTS brings out an inspirational message – “Although the world has stopped, our life is still going on, there are still a lot of hopes, and the original life will go back again, as if nothing happened” that made me deeply impressed.
Hope there will be much more amazing works brought from K-pop.
I also like these artists! What a coincidence! I really like “How You Like That” and “Eight”. They lyrics in “Eight” are really well written! I think I will try to watch “Hotel Del Luna” when I think I can handle the parts where the ghosts appear🥶. Another drama that I recommend that IU is the female leading actress is “Moon Lovers”. It’s also a great drama.👍🏻
I am interested in K-pop. I remember that I first touched K-pop when I was 1 years old. My friends suggested that I listen to some songs which were sung by a South Korean Boy and Girls group . Then I tried to listen and enjoy. After this, I fell in love more and more with K-pop. My favourite Girls group is BLACKPINK. This group is formed by YG Entertainment, consisting of members Jisoo, Jennie, Rose and Lisa. It debuted in August 2016 with their single album Square One. The songs I like the most are “How you like that” and “Lovestick Girl” I think the rhythm and speed are very compatible.
My favourite Boy group is BTS, it is also known as the Bangtan Boys, is a seven-member Boy band that began formation in 2010and debuted in 2013 under Big Hit Entertainment. The septet-composed of RM, Jin, Suga, J-Hope, Jimin, V and Jungkook. The song that I like the most is “dynamite”. There is so much energy in the song.
I really appreciate that these two groups have a very high potential for singing and dancing. They always need to have some live shows and cause some pressure on the performance they did. But they still could get over the pressure and hoped to get the higher performance and let people see. I will learn from their attitude.
BLINK😗 I love BLACKPINK very much. Their songs are famous. They were amazing. My favourite song in BLACKPINK is ‘Lovesick girls’. I love BTS too. Jung Kook is my favourite member. I hope I can chat with you more about BLACKPINK and BTS.
BLACKPINK IN YOUR AREA! 🖤💖
I have loved kpop since I was six. At that time, my sister was a big kpop lover. Since I wanted to catch her attention, I chose to love kpop with her. In these six years, I had known a lot of idols but I think BTS is the best group I have ever met. Not about their appearance or their strength, it’s just about their message.
They created their worldview called BU story. In that world, BTS faced a lot of ruptures such as family and friendship. The stories were unsolved so that we can guess what will happen. It is quite interesting for me to imagine those scenes. Seeing other fans explain their opinions, it seems like watching a book. I wonder why there are a lot of talented fans in this world!
Also, they use their music to be our mentors. BTS told us to love ourselves. I think none of the teachers would tell us about this but they did. They higher our self-confidence that we can do everything we want legally. Whether our faces, where we form, our gender identities, our socio-economic status, we can accept and speak out.
In this despite the pandemic period, they told us to keep hopeful and consociate to face this pandemic. BTS used their experiences and voices to encourage people around the world to be positive in this period. They shared their difficulties from COVID-19 such as the world tour is cancelled to feeling hopeless and despaired. But then, they remembered their community and fans so they got power to produce music again. In this situation, BTS encourages people to face all difficulties just like them. “BTS will be there with you.”
At last, I am attracted by their personality. Although they are the worldwide top star nowadays, they are still very kind. They will help the staff to fix the wire. They will also help to clean the stage after encore. Getting this fame, they still use many efforts to finish their work. Their music is more healing in the albums. I just want to say, they still know about their original intention–debut because of loving music.
I would like to say, they are my teachers instead of idols. BTS had healing my heart when I was in despair. Maybe they will take BTS out of their lives, but I don’t think I will forget them, definitely. I love them, starting from their appearance, attract by their talent, stay with them because of their wonderful music messages and personalities.
BTS is super perfect!
You are such a Army! My favourite BTS song is “I Need You”. Although it has been quite a while since it was released, I think it’s great!
I also like k-pop! I remember that when I first touched k-pop is because I had a dancing exam in P.E. lesson in primary school. The teacher let us find our own song, then my group found k-pop songs.
At last, we found GFriend. They made their debut in 2015 and there are six members in the group. Let me briefly introduce them.
Sowon – The leader of the group and the main rapper.
Yerin – Face of the group and lead dancer.
Eunha – Lead vocalist
Yuju – Main vocalist
SinB – Main dancer
Umji- Lead rapper, English responsible and maknae of the group
My bias (favourite member) is SinB, the main dancer. Firstly, I think she is very pretty. Secondly, she dances really well. She dances very powerfully in the lively songs while elegantly in the lyrical songs. She is the main dancer and she has to teach the other members the movements of the dance. She is really patient with them and hopes to make everything perfect. She performs herself naturally in front of the fans but not pretentious. When she is on the variety show, she always laughs loudly, but she is very cute at the same time.
Other than that, I very much appreciate Yuju, the main vocalist. I think she sings really well, especially the high notes. Her singing technique in k-pop is one of the very best. Besides, she is very talented. Other than singing and dancing, she also plays figure skating, rhythmic gymnastics, pole dancing etc. She is really a wonderful girl!
Hope you will know more about GFriend!
I know G-Friend as well! I think they are all really talented since I have watched a video .That video is about they dance with a blind fold ! Surprisingly , there are no mistakes ! Everyone is so concentrated too. After your introduction , I want to learn more about them !
I am a fan of K-pop. My favourite boy band is Seventeen. Although it is called Seventeen, there are only thirteen people. Their entertainment is very poor and was carrying debt when they debuted. However, they use their ability and work very hard to promote their band and attract more and more people to become their fans. They make their entertainment, earn a lot of money and become rich. They create songs, design the dance movement by themselves. They use songs to tell us about their story and what they want to say. Their story motivates me to try my best to do everything and don’t give up even if the situation is bad.
However, I think K-pop idols may still promote some bad values on their fans. They may blindly follow what their idol does. Korea is famous for wine. Therefore, there are K-pop idols who are brand representatives of wine. They may also think drinking wine is good because their idol drinks too or want to support their idol. Their fans may buy and drink a lot. It may affect their health. Also, some people will buy the concert tickets illegally from scalpers. The fans always compare their idol with other idols. Some may start a war of words on the internet or argue with friends even in the street. Some may even cause cyberbullying.
Although I love K-pop, I think we should think about what is right or wrong and don’t blindly follow what your idol does.
I love SEVENTEEN too! They dance very neat and powerful. They are united like a family which I want to learn from them. I am also proud of the talent on composing of Woozi!! Also his voice is unique and he is charming lol. However, my bias is Joshua haha.
Talking about k-pop, I think everyone will be the first to think of the very famous male group -BTS . However,the first one that i think is Wanna One . They are come from a talent shows -produce 101 season 2 in 2017.They debut on 7th July.Their first song is call “energetic”.I really like them because they very hardworking to pursue their dreams.Also they are very handsome.My favourite members is a boy called Park Jihoon.My favourite song is call spring breeze.Although they have already disband,I will not forget everything about them.
Oh! I also think Wanna One is good.They are handsome and energetic,that makes people happy.But have a sad new is they were disband.🥺🥺I hope I can watch the whole group of performances on the stage later.
I think BTS also good.Their songs are really amazing !I cannot stop myself to sing their songs.Also,they are handsome and their dancing skills are brilliant.I really love them!
I am a fan of Wanna One too.I love Kang Daniel the most as he is soooo handsome.The last song “Spring Breeze” is so touching and it calls out many unforgettable memories between members and Wannable.
Wow! I’m also a great fan of Wanna One… too bad they have already disbanded.😞😞 My favourite song if “Energetic”, the perfect song you need when you feel down!
Actually I’m not really obsessed with k-pop. I’ve just listened to few songs of GFriend and Twice. I think they’re really charming though. But I think it’s a bit wasting time and money because people who are in deep love with k-pop will buy lots of albums of them without any reason. Also, they spend time on their idols’ information and watch their mvs. I think it’s quite wasting time though. I don’t mean that obsessing with k-pop is bad, it has advantages also. It will lead you to make more friends and have more things to chat with them. People shared same interests and same idols will become good friends usually. It’s true. But anyway, I won’t be those big fans of k-pop, never!😂🥶
Good taste Winky! I think you must like Red Velvet also since you like Twice and Gfriend! Their songs are very charming and they are so beautiful too! Haha so what theme of music you like? I hope you can reply me lolz:))
I am buddy also! I think GFriend is very charming and stylish. Besides, I quite agree with you that some fans waste a lot of time and money on their idol such as watching their MV and buying their albums. However, when you see the views of MV is high and you have collections of their albums, you will feel really satisfied and proud of them. Anyway, we should get a balance between supporting them and our time or money.
On 21st April, 2019, It could be an ordinary day for others but for me, it was the day I became an ARMY, a big fans of Bangtan Soneondan ,B!T!S!
I’ve known BTS since last year summer because the new MV “Idol” was released and my friends was an ARMY and let me to see. I thought it was quite very weird! However, I went to Japan with my family and I watched MAMA on the airplane. The last performance was Bts, and I was attracted by my bias Kim namjoon (RM) because of his handsome face and two dimples!!!!! He is so cute but his IQ is 148! Haha Can’t you imagine a cute person has high IQ😚😚I love other members too because everyone are so charming and talent! Their songs were made by themselves and use their talent to be famous: sweet voice, handsome face and tidy dance. Bear joonie,worldwide handsome Kim Seokjin, Min Suga PD nim, your hope hobi, mochi mochi Jiminie, four-dimensional taetae and golden maknae kookie!
/I’M LEARNING HOW TO LOVE MYSELF/
I am also a big fan of blackpink and iz*one. My bias are Jennie and Hyewon . One is debuted with girl crush style and one is love to eat lol!
Do you love K-pop? Please tell me and comment below!
hey shanice you are right! although im not a fan of bts, but i still think they’re handsome though🤭. is there anymore songs for recommending to us? hope you will reply me soon😏
I have been a big fans of Bantan Soneondan(BTS)since this year.They change me a lot.Maybe many people think our kpop fans are just wasting money on idols.But when I am watching the people I love,that feeling is really can’t express.
2019,February, I meet this seven boys,Kim Nam Joon, Kim Seok Jin,Min Yoongi, Jung Ho Seok, Park Ji Min,Kim Tae Hyung,Jeon Jung Kook.And I start to find more information of them.They debuted in 2013.They was just 15,16 years old that time,is the most happiest time in our life.They start to performance on the stage,is really hard for an teenagers being that.They practice 14 hours every day.And try to give a perfect performance to us.I really respect them.
2017,2018,2019,this three years, the received Social Artist Award in Billboard Music Award. They win Justin Bieber!Also,their new album is the top1 album on the Billboard album rank although the language is not English. It was a big success og kpop.It means music is a language that all people can know.They also performed in the Grammy Award(the biggest music ceremony over the world) last year.
The success of them isn’t lucky,is depend on how hard they work on.
Thank you,BTS,I am so glad that I meet you guys in my life.
Love myself, love yourself!
I have liked BTS since 2016.They are a incredible and amazing group,they also take care of their fans ‘ARMY’. ARMY is strong and there is getting more and more people to join this big family. BTS is not famous when they were debuted. They are getting more and more famous by their own hard-work. Maybe some people would think they are not handsome or somewhat, but they live really
hard and please give them what they should deserve. At least we should respect what they have done. Although they may not be the most perfect group in the KPOP history, but I believe they are the greatest in most of the ARMY heart.
*We purple you(*๓´╰╯`๓)
It’s been five months since Bangtan Sonyeondan entered my life.
Five months since I stumbled upon this endearing K – pop boy band.
Five months since I met Kim Namjoon, Leader Mon who speaks fluent English and constantly destroys things — including ARMYs’ hearts with those cute dimples of his. His philosophic ‘ sexy brain ‘ and outstanding leadership skills never fail to amaze me.
Five months since I met Kim Seokjin, the fake maknae who is addicted to puny dad jokes and well known for his windshield wiper laugh. His care and thoughtfulness towards others warms my heart.
Five months since I met Min Yoongi, the tsundere who sleeps 48 hours a day and never misses a chance to put his savage tongue technology on display. His passion for music and endurance when confronting obstacles encourage me to pursue my dreams and never give up.
Five months since I met Park Jimin, the angel who is basically the epitome of seduction onstage and a cute mochi offstage. His genuine love for all his hyungs and dongsaengs inspires me to become more selfless.
Five months since I met Kim Taehyung, the four – dimensional teen who regularly spaces out, lights up a whole room with his adorable boxy smile and bubbly personality. His strong bond with ARMYs and his gratitude towards them teach me to always remember and cherish those who have helped you.
Five months since I met Jeon Jungkook, the golden maknae who seldom uses honorifics when speaking to his hyungs and the most powerful ‘ muscle pig ‘ in the group. His versatility and extreme dedication to every single performance make me understand the importance of handling everything you do with all your heart.
Five months since I met my ultimate bias Jung Hoseok, the ball of sunshine who treats dancing as his everything and never fails in brightening up the mood / get scared by something. His frankness when admitting that not all of J – Hope’s smiles are sincere behind the 24 / 7 cheerful facade and deep message for ARMYs makes me realize that I have to speak myself, embrace myself, be myself and love myself.
7 boys.
6 other continents to visit.
5 years together.
4 vocalists.
3 rappers.
2 sides to their seemingly smooth road to success.
1 group which changed the world.
Bangtan Sonyeondan, borahaeyo. Bangtan Sonyeondan, fighting.
I surprised that you are also an ‘ARMY”-fan club of Bangtan Sonyeondan,BTS,the most popular k-pop group in the world.Bangtan Sonyeondan have entered my life since 2017,when I was listening to one of their most popular song that is recommended by my primary school friends,Fire.I was totally amazed by the sound effect and the unexpected high note.After this,I was ‘addicted’ to this as known as ‘brain-washing’ and I started my ARMY life until now that I am listening to their latest song,Boy with Luv!
Being a ARMY is good and BTS is the greatest for us! They are hard-working and they have done good job til now.
*LOVE IS NOTHING STRONGER THAN A BOY WITH LUV
I am very surprised that you are a fan of BTS! It’s very glad to see a person whose ultimate bias is Hoseok (‘m crying). Since I am also a fan of BTS, I totally agree with your point when you first met them. They are so talented that they can be the worldwide top star nowadays. I hope we can learn how to love ourselves with BTS together. Let’s be an army till BTS disappears in our life!
I love k-pop very much.I have a k-pop idol too.In past,I am not interested in k-pop.I even think the male idols in k-pop look like female in the past.However ,I love a k-pop idol who called bts now.That is unbelievable!
Why I would change my idea?I think it is because k-pop is so popular.Many people talk about k-pop.Then,I started to touch that. finally I become a fan of k-pop.
PS k-pop is so good.
In fact, I’m not interested about K-POP in the past. I remember, I firstly heard about KPOP song is Wonder Girl’s . It’s a really a good song. However, my favorite KPOP groups are TWICE and BTS. They’re both good. TWICE is very cute and beautiful but the most important is TWICE is very hard-working although they’re successful. TWICE’s members are very kind too. Myoui Mina is one of the members of TWICE.She had signed the agreement when she was sixteen years old.The agreement is about organ donation after death. I love TWICE so much! BTS is the TOP in the KPOP as we know.They rely on their own efforts to received many awards.Their hard work paid off. BTS and TWICE deserve the honor.
Well… I have to admit, I am kinda new to K – pop. I’ve been obsessed with C – pop in the last few years instead, and the only Korean pop song I’ve ever heard of then was TT – which I was NOT very interested in. However, a video I saw on Youtube two weeks ago entirely changed my mind. It was a video about the most brainwashing songs of 2018, but there was some sort of technical problem with it and several MVs of the recommended songs couldn’t be displayed properly. And one of those songs was BTS’s IDOL – the very one song which changed my life.
Out of curiosity, I searched IDOL on YT – and fell heads over heels in love with BTS. The rhythm, the energetic beat, the positive lyrics… everything was so perfect. I wonder why I wasn’t hypnotized when I searched their song DNA a few months earlier. Anyway, all the members are perfect ( ahh Kookie stop being my bias wrecker… ), but the one and only person who immediately impressed me with his charm was J – Hope 😍😍😍. I know that J – Hope is the least hot, and some people think he looks like a horse ( though I don’t think so ), but his warm smile and toothy grin practically melted my heart throughout the whole MV. Hobi is a rapper, dancer and he sometimes does vocals too. He is the ultimate sunshine and HOPE, as he introduces himself, of the group. He is always optimistic about things and he loves goofing around, entertaining the others. He’s a PURE GENIUS when it comes to conjuring dance steps ( alongside Jimin – ie, another extremely talented dancer and vocalist ). The others are really fantastic too, they all have great charisma and amazing abilities – Namjoon / RM, leader, GOD OF DESTRUCTION and native English speaker ( his English is really fluent and – take this: he’s a SELF – LEARNER ); Seokjin / Jin, Worldwide Handsome, kinda like a nanny to the other members cuz he’s the eldest; Taehyung / V / Tae Tae, REAL Worldwide Handsome ( Not kidding!.. He actually got awarded as the most handsome worldwide by America TC Chandler in 2017 ); Yoongi / Suga / Agust D, Swag Master, miraculous rapper; and last but certainly not least… ( drumroll please ) Jungkook / Kookie / my bias wrecker XD, Golden Maknae, totally adores his hyungs and loves teasing them.
Guess I got a bit too carried away… Anyway, IMO these guys are just so sweet and cute!! They deserve to own the success and fame they are getting~ However, out of selfishness I still hope that Hobi can get more love from ARMYs since he’s quite underrated 😢 So…! These are my opinions on K – pop ( umm only BTS I guess 😂 ) Which K – pop group do you love? Who is your idol and who is your bias wrecker? 😈 Comment down below!!!
I have always listen KPOP too . It is very interested for me to listen another places’ language music , like,Korea.I am interested Korean KPOP.
I listened to Kpop song since I was primary 3.well,my favourite kpop group is Mamamoo and CLC because they are very talented and very good at singing,dancing,rapping etc. Also,their song is very catchy and amazing that you should listen thrie songs and performance!Besides,one of the member in CLC is a Hong Kong people(Elkie)She has her first solo song in these month!
Well…a lot of people in now days are also fall in love with kpop ! But… still a lot of people do not know what is kpop
kpop,for long name is Korean pop,every year have more than 100 of kpop group debut and every year will have at least 1 big competition for kpop female/male group!
This sound interesting ,right?However, being a kpop star you need to practice for a long time !A short period of practise time is 2-3 years ,some of the kpop star have been practicing for 10 years or more for debut!!!
so being an kpop star is not easy !For us ,we sould support them more and listen moe of their songs!
I have listening to k-pop when I was primary 4 and the first song I heard is PICK ME,as known as the brain-washing song of the first season’s theme song that after you listen to this,your brain will just have the sound of ‘Pick me,pick me,pick me up!’,still now I can still remember!I listen to this song because I opened the TV and switched to Jade 2 and it is playing it.After that,I have seldom hear k-pop songs.Some years later,my friends recommended me to listen to a song from the popular k-pop boy group,BTS’s Fire.I was totally amazed by the sound effect and the high notes.After this,I was addicted in k-pop songs.Now my favourite boy group is SEVENTEEN and my favourite girl group is MAMAMOO.💜💜
I start to like listening to K-Pop about 5 months, so I don’t know many groups. But my favorite Boy Group is BTS , “I Need U”,”DNA”,”Waste It On Me”,”Fake Love”,etc. Those are my favorite songs of BTS. Also, my favorite Girl Group is Twice. The songs of Twice such as, “Yes or Yes”,”The Best Thing I ever did”,Cheer Up”, etc are my favorite songs of Twice.

I have been interested in k-pop since a big hit from TWICE, the most famous k-pop girl group in Korea. I love their song -TT so much, since the catchy wordings kept playing in my mind. And now, I am a fan of one of the most famous k-pop boy group in Korea – WANNA ONE, I love them quite a lot since the series of produce 101 of season 2 appears. I was attracted by Ong Seong Woo when I watch the show. At that time, he always did something funny to attract the audience like rewriting some lyrics in a funny way. My favourite song of WANNA ONE is Spring Breeze because this song is their last song since they will disband at 31/12/2018. Which is your favourite song? Leave a comment below !

I am a fan of K-pop. My favorite K-pop is BLACKPINK since their songs are very cool, it make me feel so high. Also the songs could express the feelings. When I have free time, I will listen to BLACKPINK’s song and I would feel relaxed and it won’t let me feeling yawnful. I think most of the K-pop scene can make the people integrating the song’s feeling, so that why I like listening to K-pop.
I like Kpop very much.Once, I listen to my favourite girl group songs such as the group GFRIEND and Twice. It is relaxed for me to listen to their songs every time. In every different songs,they have different style.So I will never feel bored when listening to their songs.And also their songs is very matches with their MV.So that it is the mainly reason for me very like the kpop songs.

I love wanna one most because their music make me feel energetic. I think k-pop is good some k-pop music can make people feel happy. But some fans will addicted in following their idol and they will spend a lot of money and time on k-pop. Therefore I think people should not overdo it.
II am always a big fans of K-pop. And my favorite k-pop groups will absolutely be TWICE, which means that I am a once.
TWICE is the nowadays most popular k-pop girl group in Korea, which always make a big hits when they comeback. I always watch their’s song MV in the very first moment. From 2015, which their first song released, I immediately like them very much. In 2016, they comeback with the song CHEER UP and TT in April and October respectively, and makes a very huge success in Korea. They then gets a lot of prize and champions in the music show. How strong they are!
In 14 of december, 2018, the last day of MAMA rewards, they are rewarded for the ‘Song of the year’, ‘Best female group’,
‘Best Dance Performance Female Group’,’Worldwide Fans’ Choice TOP 10′ and ‘Favorite Dance Artist Female’. I will be a forever ONCE!

i hate kpop before 2017 but after i know two groups call Blackpink and Mamamoo ,i have change my mind.their songs were so good.Blackpink have four member which is Jisoo(the oldest and the prettiest member)Jennie (the ace of the group)Rose(the vocal and I love her most )and Lisa (good at dancing and the youngest)I think their songs are very powerful and dance are sharp.Mamamoo have foup members too ,Solar(the oldest ad vocal),Moonstar (the rapper and her voice is very deep )Wheein,(vocal and love her most )Hwasa(the youngest but look so charm)actually ,they can all sing very well so i like them and their reality show are very funny.Both group”s songs are very high quality ,i suggest you go to youtube to listen their songs!
I interest in K-pop since I have watched ‘sixteen’–a talent shows that organize by JYP. TWICE is establish by this show. I was attracted by Jeongyeon when I were watching this show. Her short hair is very cool. And she is very helpful too, she always helps people when they are in need. Jeongyeon has long hair now. At first, I think I will feel strange when she has long hair. However, when I have seen her long hair, I found that I was totally wrong. She becomes very beautiful and sweet. I like her so much. What is your favourite K-pop star? Leave the comment below!
I love k-pop too. I think the music is very good. I feel energetic after I listen to k-pop music.
I think Jeongyeon is cool too and I almost prefer BLACKPINK because their songs let me feel so exciting. K-pop can let people feel happy:)
Do you interested in K-pop?I love K-pop very much. I am a big fan of BTS. The reason that I love them very much is because of the aim of their song. Their song focused on the problems among teenagers nowadays and the sistuation of the society. Their song always can express the feeling of the public.
What is your favourite member in BTS.?Me, is V! Comment below and tell me your favourite BTS member.^-^
I like BTS too. Their songs are meaningful. However, I like Got7 more. My favourite member is Jackson Wang. He is a Hong Kong people. He can speak many languages and good at sports. I am proud of him.
Aack… V, Worldwide Handsome 😏 I have to admit that V is really attractive though. His baritone is.. I don’t know, plain SEXY. However, I still think that Hobi will forever be my bias as he’s the one who made me stan BTS 🤩 The funny thing is that I’ve been considering Kookie as my bias wrecker ever since I’ve been able to recognize him and V 😂 Probably because he’s such an adorable baby
I have been a K-pop fan for four years. The groups I stan are GFRIEND, EXO, BTS and SEVENTEEN.K-pop in 1990s was not that popular in world but it becomes more international now. Like BTS, they got Top Social Artist in Billboard Music Awards 2018 in May. K-pop is full of excellent vocal, dance, rap, visual and talented artist!
In vocal, there are some well-known good singers like Chen@EXO, Taeyeon@Girls Generation and Yuju@GFRIEND. The highnotes they sing are totally amazing! Their voices are so unique! To check the real voice of singers, some people even make MR removed. GFRIEND and MAMAMOO are well received.
In dance, GFRIEND is famous cause their dances are really difficult. But they dance it synchronously! BTS and SEVENTEEN dance really well too! And there are even some harder things -2 x faster dance (create by GFRIEND’ s fans-Buddy), dance without hands (from idol room), random play dance (from weekly idol) and relay dance (from m-net)!
In rap, I don’t notice it in usual but I still know some talented rappers. For example, the rapper line of BTS (J-hope, SUGA and RM) and Zico@Block B. The songs I want to recommend are I Am You, You Are Me (by Zico) and MAMA (by J-hope).
In visual, there are many good-looking K-pop idols. Like V (Kim Tae-hyung)@BTS, he
got the first in The Most Handsome Faces of 2017.And Cha Eun-woo @ASTRO, he is called ‘genius of face’ in South Korea. Also, Irene@Red Velvet and Tzuyu@TWICE are well-known of their beautiful faces too!
I am not a K-pop fan since produce series is launched.Then I got completely obessed with it. I watched all three of produce series and my favourite one is season two.I am a fan of WANNA-ONE ( The idol group ‘produced’ by produce 101 S2)My favourite member is Daniel Kang.He is so cute and handsame!!!!!!My favourite song of WANNA-ONE is Beautiful.It is so appealing that I’ have listened to it not less than five hundred times .😂😂But there is a sad news that they’re going to disband on 31/12/18.
Hope that they will continue to be fanous after returning to their own company.Bye Bye!
Is Famous😂
I have watch produce 101 S2 too. My favourite song of WANNA-ONE is energetic. I think this song is very catchy. After I have watch the mv once, the melody keeps playing in my mind, and I can’t forget it.:)
The great news is that Kang Daniel is going to solo debut soon 🙂 I’m glad he succeeded in suspending the contract with LM at last. Congratulations to all Wannables and Daniel stans~
I like K-pop very much now but I hated K-pop before. Why? Let me tell you. When I was small, I didn’t like both J-rock and K-pop. I think they were so fake and annoying. However, I changed my mind because I saw a show called BTS Run! which is hosted by BTS. I think they are very nice and I started to hear some K-pop songs. The songs was brilliant and I enjoyed to listen to them. And now, my favourite K-pop group is called Blackpink, which was debuted in 2016. They are formed by YG Entertainment and consists members of Jennie(Main rapper and vocal), Lisa(Main rapper and lead dancer, also maknae),Rose(Main vocal) and Jisoo(Vocal and the eldest). My favorite song of them is Playing With Fire and the link will be posted in the below!
The reasons that why I love them is because they are very talented. All 4 of them can play the musical instruments and actually Lisa can be a vocal too , she is a rapper tho. Also , their cute reactions are also their charm.
Now some of the people still thinks that Kpop is not realistic and they don’t like us , the K-pop fans. I really want to tell them how wonderful is it and it deserves us to spend some times on it. Of course , we cannot addict in it and it is not good for us.
I hope you will watch the MV and know more details about these four amazing girls!:)
I love Blackpink too! Mt favourite song is As If It’s Your Last, and my favourite member is Rose. She sings really well and I think she is quite pretty.
I share a similar experience with you! I used to find K-pop really annoying as I think the faces of each member are the same. But after listening to BlackPink’s Boombayah, I turn to enjoy their music! By the way, it is great to know that you love Lisa too!:-)
I am a Kpop fan from form one till now. People always ask me why do I love Kpop songs but not cantonese songs. Let me tell you why now !
Firstly, the Kpop songs are quite brainwashing and i love most of the melodies. The songs can express a message with different topics about our teenager’s daily life. They are more related to our daily lifes.
Secondly,many students love listening kpop songs and talking about them. So talking about kpop is also a way to communicate with friends and classmates.It may help uis to meet more new friemds too.
Lastly, I think listening to songs and make you feel more relax and comfortable, you can listen to songs you like when u feel blue or even you are gathering with friends happily too!
But just not to addict into these popular culture and don’t be controlled by Kpop, and treat listening to kpop songs and be a kpop fan as an interest, it will be fine.
I am a quite “old” Kpop fan. I got into Kpop since I am 4 years old. I remembered when after school, I will watch the music videos from some Korea group in youtube first XD(so I always get scolded by my parents) I listened to GIRLS’ GENERATION and WONDER GIRLS in that time. Then in my junior primary school life(p.1-3)
, I focused on my study so I stopped listening to Kpop. And in my primary 6, my classmates started to listen to Kpop and maybe because of flock psychology, I started to listen to Kpop again. My favorite group now is EXO, BLACKPINK, WINNER, SUPER JUNIOR and GIRLS’ GENERATION. I see the improvement of their music and Kpop has become more popular than before. Moreover, there are more groups and songs that I have never seen before. However, there are more fan wars, car accident about the idols. Even the antis’ actions have become more furious. For example, a crazy fan poor some acrylate adhesive(super glue) into TVXQ’s member Yunho’s water and his stomach bleed. Although a lot of awful things happened, it cannot affect the fandoms. I think the teenagers can learn something good from the idols, such as their grids. Most of them have been trained in few years to become a pop star. Although they afford a lot of pressure every day every time(afraid spending a lot of time to practice. But still cannot debate), they don’t give up. And some of them are polite, like g-dragon, he bows every time after the performance finished. Also, when other groups get the award(whatever they are his senior or junior)he will stand up and clap for them. I think this can let the teens follow them.
it should be grit not grid
btw I know a lot of group in Kpop and if u have interest in them, you can reply my comments and ask questions below.
EXTRA: My first listen to girl group and boy group’s songs are WONDER GIRL ‘nobody’ and SUPER JUNIOR ‘sorry sorry’. They are very catchy and brain-washing and I recommended you to listen to them:)
It should be ‘I think she is successful ……’,not ‘succes’
I love k-pop since 2015 because their songs are great.I REALLY LOVE CLC,since one is a hongkonger(ELKIE) and i find that her birthday is the same as me^_^.I think she is succes because she can debut in Korea and says Korean fluently
Here is the link of their now song {Where Are You?}
I love kpop since 2015 because their songs are great.I REALLY LOVE CLC,since one is a hongkonger(ELKIE) and i find that her birthday is the same as me^_^.I think she is succes because she can debut in Korea and says Korean fluently
This sounds cool ! Hope you can learn more korean and the local culture in Korea 🙂 I think you should add more contents like why you like kpop besides the hongkonger to korea. well done ! keep it up !
I’m not a big fan of k-pop but many of my friends like k-pop so I can often hear some k-pop star’s singing and dancing like EXO, Girl’s Generation, TWICE, Bigbang. Although I am not some crazy fan ad know really clearly about them, I will still listen to their songs. I appreciate the effort the people have paid. I have heard many stories that the K-pop star practice all days and nights to work for a show. And the dancing of k-pop groups is really good and uniform. However, some of the k-pop fans are so crazy that they may scold other star’s fans or even sneak into the star’s house. This makes people feel bad about k-pop stars because managing their fans is also their jobs. Also, I believe that the develop of k-pop culture let more people know about Korea this country. This may help their economic as this culture can attract some fans to visit Korea. And there many products of k-pop now like the yes-card and posters in Hong Kong. So k-pop also bring benefits to Hong Kong actually!
Actually, I am a fan of TWICE. However,I am not those who are crazy. Somehow, I think the K-pop songs are very brainwashing, like CHEER UP and TT. The melody of K-pop songs always appear in my mind, and I will sing them softly. Although I don’t know what the girls are singing, I can still pronounce the Korean clearly. It is amazing! >o<
The K-pop stars are teenagers' idols. They are pretty/handsome, with attractive body-shape…Of course everyone wants to be like that! Therefore, people love them. They think their idols are wonderful and perfect. *v*
Besides, K-pop is popular among teenagers, mostly. The MV dance steps are easily to be remembered.. The fans must know the dance of their idol. : P
Moreover, I love Korean TV drama too! ＜3
I am a fan of Twice. I like K-pop because my friends danced and sang the song of Twice one day in my primary school, they told me that the songs of Twice were wonderful so I listen to their songs when I got back home at that day. Even I did not know what were they singing, I was attracted by them! Since then, I love k-pop.
Listening to k-pop is my favorite now. I feel relaxed when I listen to their songs! They are always charming in my heart!
In fact, I am a fan of EXO. I like k-pop very much because whenever I listen to it, I will sing and dance with the idols. It makes me feel happier and more relaxed. That’s why I like k-pop.
When I was still a primary school student, I didn’t know much about k-pop. I listened to English songs and I like One Direction. Then one day, one of my friend started to listen to K-pop and asked me to listen to them. As I couldn’t understand what were the Korean idols singing, I was not interest in it at first. However, I love it and listen to it every day. It is awesome.
For me, I would like to introduce EXO and BTS. It is because their sngs and music videos are great. I like the mv of ‘Overdose’ from EXO and the mv of ‘Not Today’ from BTS. They are fantastic!
I don’t know a lot about j-rock. I like k-pop now but I used to hate it.I have known it since I was primary 4. I used to think the people who like it is crazy and their academic result is poor.
As what I have heard, k-pop is popular for many years and had ‘invaded’ many countries. But the time of most of the people like to focus on a group only last for a short time because of the trend. Super Junior, it has been very popular before but now there’s fewer people focus on it. The time changing is quick in this period ,Girls Generation,Apink,AOA,Bigbang,EXO,BTS,Twice,etc. Some of them are hot now and the remaining are not as many fans as before. There’s also many causes expect the trend, such as bad gossip, military service or their appearence are not attractive anymore.
To be summarize, the ‘lives’ of the k-pop singers are usually weak and short , so that their entertainment companies try to use the stars’ power as much as they can, to earn money , how curel! The contend between them are also ‘bloody’ and causes the other members’ unsatisfied, like 4minute, they were seperated finally.
I really love k-pop very much.I didn’t know k-pop until primary grade 3.My friend recommended me to a song of girl’s generation–oh！. So i started exploring k-pop.I think k-pop is brilliant and spectacular.i really admire many of the k-pop groups.My favourite groups are Girl’s Day ,AOA EXID and G- DRAGON.I also like K.will ,he can sing very well .All the idols practised very hard before .All of them deserves what they get know.They didn’t give up during the tiring practise period .That’s why i really admire all of them!
I agree with your view about k-pop. I focus on many, but especially BTS, Bigbang and EXO. Their songs are lively and the beats are strong. They dance well and matches with the songs perfectly. Some of their songs are meaningful and criticize the unfair in the society. Also encouraging, such as being optimistic.
I like BTS because of my friend’s recommend. After I heard thier songs, especially Dope, I become thier ARMY(fans name).Their dance practices are pretty cool, the steps are complicated.Their rappers are very very attractive! Bigbang, they are very special, they don’t have a fixed states in this group.Their songs are highly recommended, even spread through the other side of world. Each of their vioce are unique. EXO, the handsome boys, but also their vocal are great. Some of them come from China, they must practice a lot for korean and the environment.
Although in these years, the Bigbang members need to leave for the national service, I will still love them. Also the conflict between the pre-EXO members and the company can br sloved. Hope my favourite groups can do better and better in the future.
Same as you, I know K-pop until primary grade 3.@-@I agree what you say. Idols really practised very hard in order to give out a wonderful performance to those audiences.
Do you love BTS? My favourite group is BTS. Their song is really amazing. I suggest you to listen their song. I believe you will love their song too.*0*
I like K-pop very much. When I was small, I didn’t like both J-rock and K-pop. I think they were boring and useless. But one day, my friend recommend me to listen to several K-pop songs. I changed my mind. I thought the songs was brilliant and I enjoyed to listen to it. Nowadays, I like many groups in K-pop such as Apink, Got7 etc. Their songs are fantastic and they have a excellent dancing skills. Eunji is my favorite singer in K-pop. She is beautiful and sing very well. I like her very much. There were many singer in K-pop. Different people like different singer. I think we should respect everyone’s ideas. There should not be any antagonistic rivalries.
I love Got7 too. My favourite member is Mark. He is so handsome. The song of Got7 is so appealing and attractive. My favourite song is You are. I have listened to it for many times. The location of mv is in Hong Kong!
Well, in the present, K-pop is a part of our life.(Maybe most of the adolescent) Everyday, schoolmates and friends, even my family are dicussing K-pop! When we walk through the electronic shops, most of the TVs are playing the show or mv of K-pop. K-pop is blend into Hong Kong already. The social norm is we accept this K-pop atmosphere. Also, the Korean stars become the idol of the teenagers. But sometimes they are too engross in K-pop. I always hear my classmates humming the K-pop songs when we are learning. K-pop are very heat in this society but also pay more attention that K-pop will not affect your life.
I think that k-pop is really heat nowadays . i am a big fans of APink. I like them because i think their dancing skill are really high and i think their voice are really good .One of my favourite songs of them is “No No No”.In this song they can show off their skill .Also ,they have a beautiful voice .so I think that K-Pop is fantastic .
K-Pop is getting more and more popular in different places, especially in Hong Kong. Everyone has their own idols. I am also a K-Pop fan. I like EXO and f(x). They are both in SM Entertainment. Their songs and dances have their own style. Some people may love the other teams from the different company or even different countries. Sometimes a part of their fans even disturbed and argued with others. I think it is the freedom of loving which group or member. We should respect others’ choice. Beside,we can also find the strength of other groups. I believe every stars has paid so much effort to their songs and shows for their fans all over the world. We should support them cheer for them.
K-Pop is very popular. It is not only popular in Hong Kong ,but there are many fans in the other country. Like me, I am a K-Pop fan too but I like Bigbang and 2NE1 most. These two group are both in YG enterainment. Unlike the other groups, they have very diffrent style. Not just in their music, but also in their clothes! Somebody can’t accept their style because they think that they are so weird. But I disagree with them because this is the part that I appreciate most.The y have the courage to try new things and refresh the imprreesions of their fans towards them. There ware surprises everytime in their new songs. All of them paid a lot of effort to make remarkable improvement. Besides, their music is brilliant. They are talented composer. The products are fabulous. They lyrics are touching and it can arouse reosnance.
Personally，I like K－pop and J－pop very much ．Nowadays，more and more teenagers like to listen to K－pop．I am also a big fan of K－pop，I like EXO and Apink very much．EXO and apink only released their group recently． However，their popularity spread over South Korea quickly．Especially EXO now they are almost as popular than Bigbang．Although，I don’t know anything about Korean language ，I think the lirics makes people infatuated with it．People might think the idols entertain us just to earn more money．In my opinion，the idols work very hard every day to appreciate us and make us feel happy．Therefore，I feel really grateful to the idols．Fighting！To all the idols in Korea．
K-pop is a popular trend and more and more people are interested in k-pop . In fact , I am also a k-pop fans and I am an EXO-L and Sone.
Many people has misunderstand the reason why we are addicted to k-pop . We always talk about it at school. We always listen to their songs or even sing them out . Of course one reason must because those idols are handsome and pretty . Many people hate them as they think they have plastic surgery and look unreal . But what I want to say is that they may have plastic surgery , and what we concerned is not only their outstanding appearance . We appreciate their hard work on practicing dancing and singing and performing a brilliant stage to all of their fans .
They are so brilliant that you should not think that all idols become idols just because they want money and become popular . Actually many idols are having a very good result at school or even their family is very rich . They become an idol just because this is their dream – to sing and dance in front of their fans .
K-pop is really popular in the world these few years, and I am one of the fans of k-pop too. They affect people’s life, just like what Jessie said, and changes our fashion sense, the food we eat, and even how we manage our time.
My favourite groups are EXO and SHINee. They are both under the SM company and are really handsome,let me introduce them to you.
For SHINee, Jessie has introduced some information about them, a I will make a few remarks. Their music and dances really attracts our eyes and ears, and they are famous for wearing tight pants to dance, though I don’t really know why. Some of their dances are arranged by a famous choreographer, so each of them are difficult to dance but brings us a visual enjoyment. My favourite member is Minho, because he is cheerful and is good at sports, which can fill up my weakness as I am really bad at sports.
For EXO, there were 12 members in total. They were Suho, Baekhyun, Chanyeol, D.O., Kai, Sehun, Kris, Xiumin, Luhan, Lay, Chen and Tao. However, Kris and Luhan left the group and there are only 10 members left. They are good at both singing and dancing, which is shown by their performances on stage. Each of them has other talents too, such as wushu, playing piano, playing guitar etc. At first, my favourite song is 365, but it gradually changes to First Snow. The point that they can cooperate well even with a large number of members really amazed me. My favourite member in this group is Suho, the leader of the group, because of his kindness and care for other members in the group.
Actually, I also like CNblue very much, but I won’t talk much about them because the content that Sophy has written made me paused for a second before deciding to let her take the role. My favourite member is Kang Min-hyuk as I have watched the Inheritors and I really like his performance.
In conclusion, they have paid much time and effort on their job and I admire them for this.
Nowadays, kpop is spreading all over the word. It affects many people.Also, I am a die-heart fan of kpop. Among all the groups and solo singers, my favourite group is SHINee and Infinite. Although they may not as famous as some groups like SJ and EXO but they really can attract me.
First,let me talk about SHINee. There are 5 members in this group. They are Onew, Taemin,MInho, Jonghyun and Key. The group name is taken from an English word ‘shiny’. It symbolizes SHINee will shine on every stages and performances. I love their dance very much. The dance is usually unique and fantastic! Like ‘Dream Girl’ ,they try to use mic stand to perform and they create many special dance with the mic stand. Also. they could really control the mic stand well. I love it very much.
Another group that i love is Infinite. It has 7 members. Although they may not be so handsome, they are famous of their uniform dance. They practise for long time and cooperate with the group members well. I love their songs very much, for example ‘paradise’, ‘back’ , ‘be mine’, ‘with’ etc.
I think they are not just doing well in dancing, they also good at singing. They have many songs that don’t contain dancing but they sing well. I love the main vocal, Kim Sungkyu very much. I think his voice is really good.
Some people may think kpop idols are famous because they have good appearance but actually they have spent a long time to practise so i think they have gave up a lot.
For me,I am a big fan of kpop. Kpop becomes more and more popular among the world. The wonderful performance on stage, the eye-catching MV and the handsome or pretty face are the reason why I like kpop. I like kpop since this summer. Although I have watched many kpop MV or shows before summer, I still not interested in kpop. But after I saw this group’s performance, I became a kpop fan. Now I am going to introduce them— CNBlue.
CNBlue is my favourite boy group. It’s different from the other kpop groups because they are a band. They are not showing their dance and I must say,their dancing skills are very bad. They are good at playing musicial instruments. They belongs to FNC Entertainment, which also call “Fish N Cake”. It’s really funny. And their fans name is BOICE.(Blue+Voice+= Boice) At the beginning , I thought that the group name was really strange.It’s different from other groups. After searching them, I know that CNBlue refers to Code Name Burning Lovely Untouchable Emotional. It’s a long name,right? And you must ask,what belongs to Burning, Lovely, Untouchable and Emotional? It’s refer to the four members from this group. ‘Burning’ belongs to Lee Jong-hyun. He is the lead guitar and the vocals. He has a great guitar skills and handsome face. I think he is the most quiet person in this group but always argue with the maknae( the smallest person in the group) for some silly question. Their conversation is extremely cute and amazing. ‘Lovely’ belongs to Kang Min-hyuk, he is the drums. He is good at playing at drum set but also sings song. He sings the OST of a Korean drama ‘Heartstrings’ in 2011. But his voice is not good as the other members,so he becomes to play the drum set. He has te cutest face in the group. His small eyes is a symbol of him. ‘Untouchable’ belongs to Lee Jung-shin. He plays bass guitar and a rapper. He is the smallest member is the group,which is call ‘maknae’ in Korea. He is also the tallest member in the group. He has a model figure,long legs and handsome face. He always says jokes in the shows and daily life. At last,here comes my favourite member, it’s ‘Emotional’, Jung Yong-hwa. He is the lead vocals and the rhythm guitar. He is also the oldest of the group so he is the leader. He is the only 1980s member in the group which borns in 1989.He has a beautiful voice. Although he is the shortest in the group,he stills has 180cm.So tall! He has a good performance in many Korean drama or shows,for example ‘You’re beautiful’,’Heartstirings’ and even ‘Running Man’! He is the guest that perform in the show for the largest time!
CNBlue’s songs are really good.They have amusing melody and well-matched lyrics .My favourite song is ‘Can’t stop’ and ‘I’m a loner’.
At last,I think kpop will be more popular in the future and I will keep support them.
It should be like this …

Oh no ! Why can’t I post them these two are different from the original one …TAT
When did I addict to K-POP? Umm…was two years ago.I remember that I weren’t interested in K-POP at that time,however,everything has stated to change since I watched the music video of Super Junior—Sorry Sorry.Their dance is really cool and their voice is very attractive. I like the leader of dance most because he is very charming and hilarous.He is Lee Hyuk-Jae,Eunhyuk. Suoer Junior is the most popular K-POP idol group and I am proud of being one of their fans—ELF. ELF means Ever Lasting Friends.This unique and meaningful name is created by the leader,LeeTeuk.I love their attitude,their voice,their apperance,and their happiness. I love K-POP! (*˘︶˘*).｡.:*♡
*Super
I am inspirit~~^^
I like K-Pop rather than J-Pop.I am a super fan of Super Junior,SHINee,F(x) etc, so much that I can’t really type in here.I remember that the first time that I get in touch with K-pop…..seems to be last year.The first song that I listened was’ From U ‘(Super Junior).It ‘s really touching that I can’t stop crying for 5 minutes…HAHA!SHINee is the group that I appreciate the most.They have come to HK in July for performing the HK Dome Festival.That day is raining.Many fans of SHINee,BoA,Henry…..has taken a shower during the show.When the members of SHINee were dancing excitedly on the stage,the weather became very bad.But They still keep on dancing but has no notion of stopping!They respect their work and fans.This kind of sprit is rarely appear in this world…That’s why I love them so much~~
Although I AM NOT A K-POP FANS, I still want to share my experience of supporting idols. Please forgive my impulse for replying a K-POP topic as a J-POP fans. I still take a deep breath and post my comment bravely as I really want to express my feelings of supporting my favourite idols and the inspirations they have given to me.
As I know that no matter which country do the combination belongs to, every member in the combination will try their best to perform their best side to the fans. No matter they are Japanese or Korean, they also put lots of effort and tears in practicing their dancing or singing behind the scene. Some of the combinations even builds up a strong and powerful sense of belongings the team spirits. They treat their members as their family members because they really experience a lot with their precious members— they have come across many obstacles together. When their group is not hot, they keep striving their best in order to sow off themselves to get more support. When one of their groupmates gets hurt or injured, they encourages him/her and tell him/her that they will wait for him/her to stand up again. When they get hotter again, they stand on the same stage, holding hands,saying that they will be together forever…. All of these makes me moved no matter they are Japanese or Korean combination,as their team spirit and love behind is really touching.
My favourite Japanese combination is ARASHI. As this topic is about K-POP, so I am not going to elaborate their information. However, I want to talk about how they inspire me and what do I learn from them. They are not very handsome. They do not have excellent dancing and singing skills that can shock you. But they have a kind of irreplacable and rare bond that can make you be proud of them. When their member is trapped into gossips, they support each other. When their members have opportunities to step out of Japan, they congratulate him and say that he is the best. When one of their members is injured, they support him and promise that they will always stand by his side…There are so many touching events that can sow their deep bond and these are all the reasons for why I support them.
I remember a lot of scene that can make me cry. They are all the beautiful memories that they have brought to us. One of them read his letter to his members, cried and promise that they will become the top someday… On their 10 anniversary concert, when their leader talked about his feelings and thanked to their fans, he said that he won’t cry but he actually cried already….They hole each hand, promise that they will stand on this stage, singing their thankfulness to us for hundred years..Lots of these unforgettable become a part of myself,and also a part of my whole-life treasure.
I don’t know whether I will continue support them when I grow up or get married, but I am sure that the beautiful days will not fade out and this love will keep in my heart for hundred years, just like the song they sing to us. They have given us a lot of positive energy, happiness that motivate us to work as hard as they work and encourage us not to give up easily. Going to their concert has also become one of my target too. Now, I will strive for my best and work harder to achieve my goals. I hope one day, I can go to Japan to attend their concert, singing songs with thousands of fans that have the same feelings as mine, wiping off my touching tears and having one of my unforgettable time which will be in my heart forever.
K-Pop is being very popular throughout recent years. Some of the students even place their Korean idols, portrait in their pencil bag or on their mirrors. They are keen on talk about their favourite Korean pop stars, or discuss which team is better.
Sometimes I wonder why there are so many people having a crush on them. I am curious about how do the pop stars attract their fans. As I was waiting for an opportunity, I heard a song from a popular team by chance. Although I didn’t finish listening to the whole song at that time, I thought the song is kinda good. It is rhythmical and lively, so maybe it can heip to bestir ourselves.
After that, I clicked a video and hoped to see how the singers performed the song. While I was watching the video, I could feel the enthusiasm and confidence passing from them. I believed that they have worked very hard on practising their singing and dancing. I appreciate them very much since they hoped to bring the best for everyone.
I really wish that K-Pop singers will bring good songs and happiness to all of us everywhen and everywhere. Add oil to all of them!
The first time I knew about K-POP is in the last year. Once, I saw a introduction music video of Kara, a very famous South Korea combination, on the home page of Youtube. I was attracted by the eye-catching screenshot and title so I clicked in to see it at once. Therefore, I knew that I had become a member of K-POP fans.
I think there are really many good combinations in South Korea, such as T-ara, F(x), Bigbang and Super Junior. Although they are all very outstanding, I prefer the Girls Generation most. Girls Generation is an excellent and well-known group, not in South Korea only, but also the whole world. It is a combination with nine beautiful girls (Taeyeon, Yoona, Jessica, Yuri, Sunny, Tiffany, Sooyoung , Hyoyeon and Seohyun) which have their own strengths and charming places. For example, Hyoyeon is the best dancer and Taeyeon is the best singer in Girls Generation. There is one thing that makes me feel surprised—- they have debuted for almost six years but are still very popular and stand on the top of the female day groups! However, after I became one of the big fans of Girls Generation, I realized that people love them not only because of their beautiful faces, but also their hearts, the pure and fiery hearts that loving and striving for the best music. I am very moved to see their efforts nowadays when I have a deeper understanding of Girls Generation.
Many of my classmates and friends love Girls Generation just like me. I hope they will become hotter and hotter in the future and more people know about the music of South Korea and love them.
I very agree that K-POP is more popular nowadays.When I was a primary student,I didn’t thorough know the things about K-POP . But,I changed during my primary summer vacation.I started to know more about K-POP when I was watching a Korean programme called ‘The birth of a family 2 ‘ . In this programme,every morning will have a alarm clock to make the artists wake up, and the alarm clock is not ‘ ling ling ling…’,it is the songs of the famous group such as girls generation,super junior and 2AM . When I heard it , I felt the strong beats in the song and I enjoyed very much . I started to discover what is K-POP .
My favourate artist is 2AM. They have called the ‘Korea beautiful voice male group’.Their songs are lyrical,their songs made me feel very relaxed~Their songs are softed but have some strong beat. 2AM has four members: the leader–Jokwon(He is so awesome!!!!) ,Lee Chang Min,Lim Seul Ong,and also Jeong Jin Woon. They melted me when they are singing.I like their songs ‘I did wrong’,’Never let you go’and ‘ I wonder if you hurt like me’ the most since they have a pleasant melody.Their soft,beautiful voice melted me everytime!!!
I want to know more about K-POP and Korea,I will know by the internet and by some of the books that introduce about Korea.

Wonder what will happen to Tara now that they are 1 member short!?
Huayoung is isolated by the others
I totally agree with that k-pop is being much more popular nowadays.It seems that it would be a big hot issue in the society, especially between teenagers.As I see, J-pop and Taiwanese music was the most popular in our class. Seldom people talks about k-pop.
However, k-pop idols are now the main topics between us everyday! How amazing this is.Not only in Hong Kong or Asian country, k-pop spreads all over the world, even in western country such as American and French.
For me, I don’t really like j-pop or k-pop before but after I watched a musical drama which acted by korean idols, I was totally trapped in it.Not only because of their amazing outlook, their performing skills are fantastic!Korean idols all need to practise about serverl years before they debut for training their singing and dancing skills.Only the most outstanding one can debut.Therefore, they would practise very hard in order to get a chance to debut.
My favourite idol group is 2PM.They are called ‘beast idol’with totally six member and two of them are from other countries.I love them because their songs have strong melody and often with fantastic dance.Their teamwork and cooperation are amazing during live performance.Everyone of them works hard on their music, their MV and dancing steps are sometimes created by them.Also, I appreciate the good relationship between them.They seldom argued and they love each other very much.They are as close as a family.

In recent years, K-pop has became a popular topic in Hong Kong, especially among teenagers. As many of my friends recommended K-pop to me, I had a try on K-pop music and I loved it at once. Now, I am a K-pop fan too!
My favourite team is Girls’ Generation. There are 9 members in Girls Generation, Taeyeon, Jessica, Sunny, Tiffany, Hyoyeon, Yuri, Sooyoung, Yoona and Seohyun.I love them all very much. Not only because of their beautiful faces, the biggest reason is that they have great connotation and are talented. All of them know many different languages and good at different categories. They dance very well and their beautiful voices are just like the sound from the heaven! Also, their songs are very melodious and easy to remember so i always hum them when I am free.
Moreover, I admire them a lot. They have paid great effort to practise the hard dances and songs in order to perform perfectly and not let their fans to be disappointed though they are really tired. Finally, their hard work is acknowledged. More and more people aprreciate their success.
In addition, they really love Sones, the die-heart fans of Girls’ Generation, and try their very best to protect them. Once, the leader of Girls’ Generation ,Taeyeon, said to the anti-fans of Girls’ Generation,’ Please don’t hurt Sones! You can hate Girls’ Generations but not Sones!’ I was fully touched when I listened these words. It is really warm and proud to be a Sone!
Besides Girls’ Generation, I also love CNBlue, F(x), T-ara and others K-pop team. It is because I believe that they all work very hard to make their dream come true. Their spectacular dancing and singing skills are without doubts and K-pop is really brilliant! I hope more people will love K-pop and appreciate their effort!
K-Pop is very popular in this few years. Many people love K-Pop very much. I am also a big fan of K-Pop. I love the artists of SM Entertainment, especially Super Junior, SHINee, Girls Generation, f(x) and BoA. It is because I think their songs, dances and rap is excellent. Let’s me introduce one of my favourite groups!
Super Junior have thirteen members, they are Leeteuk, Heechul, Hangeng, Yesung, Kangin, Shindong, Sungmin, Eunhyuk, Siwon, Donghae, Ryeowook, Kibum and Kyuhyun. However, it only has 10 members now. It is because one member, Hangeng dropped out and And also, one of its members, Heechul went to army and he would come back in 2013. The fans name of Super Junior is ELF. That’s mean Ever Lasting Friend. It’s made from the leader of Super Junior, Leeteuk.
There are some small groups of Super Junior. They are Super Junior-M(Mandarin), Super Junior-Happy, Super Junior-T(Trot), Super Junior-K.R.Y(Kyukyun.Ryeowook.Yesung).
There are two new members of Super Junior-M and they are not the members of Super Junior. They are Zhoumi and Henry. There are eight members of Super Junior-M. They are Sungmin, Eunhyuk, Siwon, Zhoumi, Donghae, Ryeowook, Kyuhyun and Henry. They usually sing of Chinese songs. Super Junior-K.R.Y are formed by Kyuhyun, Ryeowook and Yesung. They sing very well. I love their songs very much. I think their songs are very pleasant.
Super Junior-Happy and Super Junior-T are very funny and always make people laugh. Super Junior-Happy usually attract children and Super Junior-T usually attract adults. Both of these two groups have six members. The members of Super Junior-Happy are Leeteuk, Yesung, Kangin, Shindong, Sungmin and Eunhyuk. Also, the members of Super Junior-T are Leeteuk, Heechul, Kangin, Shindong, Sungmin and Eunhyuk.
Each of the members also has their strength. For example, Kyuhyun, Ryewook and Yesung are good at singing. Shindong, Eunhyuk and Kibum are good at rapping. Sometimes, Leeteuk, Heechul, Donghae will also help them to rap. Eunhyuk, Donghae and Shindong are good at dancing. All of them are very excellent!
There are also many groups that I love, but it is too many. Let’s talk up to here!
K-pop is becoming more and more popular; many people would like to support K-pop rather than the music of their own country. I am a big fan of K-pop too. I am a fan of 2PM and 2AM. These two teams are both under the same company, JYP Entertainment, but they have different style of performance. 2PM is a dance troupe. Their songs are usually with strong beat and rap. On the contrary, 2AM’s songs have beautiful soft melody and they are good at singing love songs.
K-pop is really all the rage now. As we can see, lots of idols in Hong Kong or Taiwan would like to have songs which close to Korean style. People usually choose Korean music CDs but not others. Teenagers will try to learn the dance of Korean music and try to follow the news of their idol. Idol’s every action is affecting teenagers too.
To me, I think K-pop is awesome and I will try to know more about Korea culture but not only there music. Overall, I hope that K-pop can be the hottest music ever after and I will support it too!

In these years, when you go out you can see a lo9t of teenagers hearing music. A lot of them are hearing K-pop. Actually, I’m not really a big fan of K-pop. However, I like hearing K-pop as well.
In nowadays, K-pop is affecting Hong Kong. Almost all teenagers are fans of Big Bang, 2PM, Super Junior, etc. Local pop music is also affected by K-pop. Many songs are copying the Korean style. Some groups also dance as Korean groups.
Many people like K-pop because the stars are handsome and beautiful. They want to learn Korean, how to dance as their idols and a lot of things about K-pop. This has a serious effect of our local culture.
I hope I can have chance to know more about K-pop in the future.

In this few years,K-pop music becomes more popular,especially among the teenagers.Why there will be more and more people love the K-pop music and the Korean stars?Mostly I think it is because of the airiness tempo and the strong beat.Also,most of the Korean stars are very beautiful or handsome.They are good at dancing, singing and rapping too.
Actually,I am a big fans of Big Bang.This is the idol team first debuted in 2006 in YG Family.This team included five members:G-Dragon,T.O.P,Taeyang,Daesung and Seungri.You may also call me V.I.P( the fans name of Big Bang)I think they are very talented, charming and handsome.They almost do not have any weakness.Big Bang’s songs have many different styles,some are strong-beat,some are smooth. And all of them are my favourite.
I think the most talented one should be G-Dragon.He is the leader of the team.He can compose songs,rap, sing well,dance hip hop,remix songs.He will also choose the suitable and fashionable clothes for himself. So I think he is the most talented person in the team.Also,I admire T.O.P because his rapping is very well.And he has a very handsome face.There are the main reasons that I appreciate him.Sometimes T.O.P will act in the movie.His acting is very great also.
In conclusion, I hope that everyone can understand K-pop more.I am not pushing you to love K-pop, but at least you should not say K-pop is rubbish.Because every Korean stars have their own values and they try their very best to perform on the stage.In my own stand,I think K-pop in awesome.And I hope that the legend of K-pop can spread to the whole world and last forever!
I used to be a J-Pop fan especially the Vocaloid Family. However, I just become a big fan of CN Blue! I watched a Korean variety show which called Running Man. A lot of artists are invited to join the exciting competition, including many teen idols like Girl’s Generation and BIGBANG. Jung Yonghwa from CN Blue is also one of them. I like CN Blue not just because they are very handsome, but also their voices can make me feel warm. CN Blue usually sings love songs. Although I don’t have this kind of experience, I can feel the sweetness of being love and the loneliness after breaking up. My favourite songs are ‘I’m A Loner’ and ‘Banmal Song’. The style of two songs are totally different and they are very famous.
Apart from CN Blue, I also prefer f(x) and 2PM. Both of them can dance very well. There is also a singer which can dace very well – PSY. His popular song ‘Gangnam Style’ and the humorous dance which has been highly praised. 246 million of people watched the MV . It has been shared on the internet by numerous celebrities including T-Pain, Katy Perry, Britney Spears, and Tom Cruise, covered by others such as Nelly Furtado and Maroon 5.
Being a K-pop fan, I really hope that I could have a chance to learn Korean!!!:)
I think K-pop has a quite large influence to many Hog Kong people. Firstly, many Hong Kongers admire Korean stars such as Girls Generation, Big Bang, 2PM etc. and buy theri CDs at once , it surely affects Hong Kong local music. Secondly, there are many Korean shops, restaurant in Hong Kong these few years, I think this is aslo the influence of Korean pop music.Many people love Korean music more than local music,because there are many elements in a Korean song and also there are many types of song that Hong Kong music cannot provide ,such as electronic ,hip hop etc. An other cause is that Korean teen idols are mostly very beautiful or handsome , they also good at dance, rap ! Actually , I quite appreciate Shinee and Girls Generation, their songs are mostly very fast ,after listening to them, i will feel happy usually!
K-Pop is very hit in Hong Kong in a few years. There are a lot of fans of K-Pop groups. I’m a K-Pop fans too! My favourite team is Girls’ Generation. And I’m one of their SONEs. I love their songs and dances very much. They dance very regularly. They are very beautiful too! And most important is, their voice is very mellifluous.
As a SONE, I’m so glad that they have a very big achievements, that is that is having Japanese version for their Korean songs, in order to have more support from SONE in everywhere in the world. But unfortunately, some people are anti-fans of Girls’ Generation. I’m so sad that those people are hurting my idol. They said that the members of Girls’ Generation had cosmetic surgery when they were young. They even made some fake photos of Girls’ Generation after the so called cosmetic surgery. I think those people are not respecting them.
Although I love Girls’ Generation and Samsung’s product, I don’t know how to read and speak Korean. It is a pity that I don’t know this language because I can’t understand what is actually telling me from the song. K-Pop songs are having good rhythm and melody with the lyrics. So although I don’t know how to speak Korean, I still can sing the song. It is one of the reasons that I love K-Pop too!
Except from Girls’ Generation, there is still one singer I want to introduce to you. His name is PSY. He is a 34-year-old singer in South Korea. Recently, he had a new single song called ” Gangnam Style “. The dance in the music video of this song is very funny! I am trying to practise this dance too. And this dance is very famous. His official music video’s click rate have two hundred and forty million! This can show how popular is his song. PSY has a nickname in South Korea. It is “The Prince of Concert”. You will be very excited if you are one of the audiences of his concerts. There are many fun games. If you think PSY is not very hot or famous, then I can tell you that you are wrong. It is because every time when he is going to have his concerts, some famous singers, actors or actress will take a video to support and congratulations him.
Fans of different groups sometimes have argues. They are debating about the group that the support is better. Actually I think this kind of debating is stupid and useless. It is because we are all loving K-Pop and supporting our idols. There shouldn’t be any discrepancy between us. We should stand together and fight against some people that hate K-Pop.
I hope K-Pop can be spread out to the whole world and there are K-Pop fans in every corner in the world!

I am not a K-pop fan,but I have to agree that K-pop is become more popular nowadays.Lots of my classmates like K-pop.And I really don’t know the reason.Ｍaybe there is something attract them.I found that Ｋ-pop is always have a group of singers.Such as Girls Generation,Super Junior and FT Island.There are many members in the group.Maybe this is one of the Ｋ-pop’S characteristic.Although I couldn’t understand what Ｋ-pop’s song are talking about,I think the rhythm and the melody of K-pop is quite good.
K-pop idols took a lot of hard work to get on the performance stage. Let’s try to know more about K-pop!

Recently I am really into K-pop. My best of the best K-pop band is Super Junior, followed by MBLAQ, 2PM, Miss A, Girl’s Generation and so on. Every one of the 13 members from Super Junior is unique and absolutely handsome. I think that actually they are all-rounded that I don’t understand why those antis would hate them. Their songs are addictive and the melodies are catchy. Their dances such as ‘Sorry sorry’ and ‘Bonamana’ is popular once it’s released. I love them very much.
I found one thing when I was starting to love K-pop is that all K-pop songs and idols are osculate: Songs must be easy to remember and in wash-brain style, so people will be addicted. The dance must be those very cool ones. Although a lot of people opposed to K-pop, I can only say that once you get into this K-pop world, you will start loving it<3
I am a huge fans of Girls Generation.I know that there are many anti-fans of Girls Generation.And I am really angry of it.Some of the anti-fans are disagreeable.They always says that Girls Generation did the plastic surgery.They even post some fake photo of the members in the old days.They don’t have common sense.There are a lot of photo to show that Girls Generation didn’t do any surgery.And the anti-fans only follow their mind to anti Girls Generation.
Some of the anti-fans open some Facebook group of page to attack Girls Generation.They always post a lot of fake news to ”prove” that Girls Generation is bad.But when you look at the SONE page,you will know that the fake news is only a scene of some TV show.
Some of the J-POP fans are really radical.They always say Girls Generation is bad or cyber bully Girls Generation.Fans of Girls Generation (SONE) always be kind to them and didn’t talk anything about that.Some of SONE are a bit radical but not as radical as the J-POP fans.I saw a case is that a group which is anti-K-POP.The member of the group post a photo is that a friend of the member vote for K-POP and vote for anti J-POP.Then all of the Facebook group members start to cyber bully she and also cut off the friendship with she.I think it is necessary for cutting of the friendship.
Girls Generation and other K-POP star give out a lot of time and health for being a star.They are not only famous in Korea but the whole world.For example,Girls Generation develop in Korea.When they become the Queen of singer,the develop in Japan with some Japanese songs.They gain a lot of good comments.I got another example of being famous in world.Girls Generation release a new song call The Boys.There are Korean,English and Japanese version.When Girls Generation release the Korean and English version,they got a lot of good comments in Korea and also the whole world.But once the release the Japanese version in Japan.Some people in Japan or J-POP fans started to judge about the pronunciation of Girls Generation.I know that Girls Generation got some wrong pronunciation of Japanese but they are Korean and they only want to share music to all people in Japan.People really don’t know how hard to be a super star to shine in the world.
Hope the anti-fans can enjoy K-POP and the K-POP fans also can enjoy some good J-POP music.The fans of J-POP and K-POP should be peace.

That’s right. K-pop is more and more popular nowadays. When I was young, I think that K-pop was not very good at all. But when I listen to K-pop this year, I really fall in love with K-pop, especially Girls’ Generation.
I remember that the first song I listened was Girls’ Generation’s “Gee”. It is a attractive song and I started love Girl’s Generation.
As a fans of Girls’ Generation, I watched their MV billion of times one day and started to search their information to know more about them. I am so surprise that Girls’ Generation is the most popular K-pop group. They all good at dancing and singing. Also, they started to act this two year! I am looking forward to see their acting.

I really like K-Pop especially Super Junior !They are totally amazing.
I first came across K-pop when I was in Primary Six. My classmates were always dancing ”Sorry Sorry” and ”Nobody”.I didn’t take notice of K-pop very much then.I am now Form Two and I fell for K-pop at the beginning of the term.My friend came to my house and we were listening to songs on Youtube.She loves K-pop so I decided to try and listen.We listened to Super Junior’s “Mr Simple” “A-cha”,Kara’s “Step”,Beast’s “Fiction” and lots more.Since,I began to fell for K-pop. I watched Super Junior’s MV for many times a day and I really like SJ’s Donghae!Super Junior is one of the best and most famous K-pop group.They are great in singing,dancing,holding shows, acting and lots more.”Extravagent Challenge” is a good example of SJ members Donghae and Siwon acting as the main characters.
All of the members work very hard and they treat E.L.F.’s (SJ fans) very well.
TeenTop,Kara,SNSD,BigBang and many other K-Pop groups are also very nice.Bigbang’s new hit “Blue” was a wonderful song.
I hope more people will listen to K-pop and not anti them.
K-pop is awesome!

I love K-pop. My friends all know that I’m a super fan of Girls’ Generation. As a huge supporter of K-pop, I would say Korean Idol groups do deserve overwhelming popularity after years of tough training and competition. But there’s really no need bringing up this ‘rivalry’ thing among different groups and between J-pop and K-pop. In fact, nobody is perfect. We all have different strengths and weaknesses, so do our idols. Then what’s the point of bashing other groups when our beloved idols aren’t perfect? Think about what others would say when we do this! Surely our idols don’t want this also because that just make they ashamed and hard to get along with other groups. As devoted fans, we all appreciate our idols and love them with all our hearts. That’s what we should focus on instead of criticizing others, right? 🙂
P.S. K-Pop isn’t just about dance-pop, its ballads are also impressive! I love solo singers like Park Hyo Shin and Baek Ji Young. Go and check it out~

I like both J-Pop and K-Pop too. I love Girls’ Generation, Super Junior, 2PM, Hamasaki Ayumi, Koda Kumi and f(x). K-Pop is really becoming more and more popular not only in Asia areas, but WORLDWIDE. On the video-sharing website, Youtube, almost everyday most viewed videos are K-Pop music video. The main views, through the statistics from Youtube, are mostly from Japan, the United States and South Korea itself. The popularity of K-Pop is spreading over Japan, the USA, Singapore, Malaysia, China and Australia. It is quite a weird phenomenon since the languages of these countries are comepletely from Korean, but K-Pop is now more popular than even the local pops. Taking Girls’ Generation as an example, they are surely the most popular K-Pop group recently, as they can even release a debut English single of ‘THE BOYS’ in the USA, and top-charted on the Billboard charts for a few weeks. It shows how popular K-Pop is in the USA, the largest music market in the world. The hottest boys’ group, Super Junior, also open their market in China and debuted a Chinese album. Girls’ Generation, 2PM and Kara has made a big success in Japan, cause J-Pop is becoming less popular than before,Girls’ Generation, TVXQ! and Kara even can perform on the traditional singing competition among the singers in Japan, which has never been letting Korean singers to perform on. This year’s Mnet Asia Music Awards also was held in SIngapore, which Girls’ Generation and Super Junior became big winners, only Koda Kumi, the only Japanese singer in the ceremony, can get an award. Besides, China and Australia both hold the Korea-China Music Festival and K-Pop Music Fest in Sydney, showing how big is the influences of K-Pop worldwide. I am a local-born Hong Konger, but I am totally addicted to K-Pop, for my point of view, I think the major reason for the international popularity of K-Pop is its powerful beats and easy-listening melody, and usually comes with some dances. I personally not mind its language, but its melody, that’s why I like K-Pop and J-Pop, just like the other people around the world. One thing people should know is that the composition of K-Pop mainly is not from Korean composers, but from the USA’s, or other foreign composer. So, its success among worldwide is not just luckiness, but the quality of it and the foreign people can accept the melody of it because it’s from foreign composer, for example, Wonder Girls’ ‘Nobody’ and Girls’ Generation’s ‘THE BOYS’, they both from foreign composer, and they both get big successes in the world. I think K-Pop’s success is because of the artists’ hard training and effort. Super Junior and Girls’ Generation’s members both started their training at the age of 11, when they were studying at primary schools!!! But lastly, its success may also because of the ‘idol phenomenon’. After investigating, you will discover that in every group or solo singer, there are maybe 1-3 handsome guys and beautiful girls (it’s quite subjective, but somebody think so). Their success maybe because of their fashion style or beautiful faces. But conclude all, it is a must that they, including the artists themselves, the workers in the company, the composers, or every single person that has helped them, have paid much effort to make K-Pop popular, and they are public-known people, must have someone support them or anti. them. But, K-Pop must have its special features that attracts people and that’s why it becomes so popular, not just because of luckiness or ‘idol phenomenon’ and that’s my opinions.

That’s true. K-pop really became popular these years in Hong Kong. Especially after the songs ‘Nobody’ and “sorry sorry ”, which were sang by wonder Girls and Super Junior respectively, had spread to Hong Kong, more and more people would like to follow the Korean idols.
I have a Korean friend. She loves the culture of her own country very much and of course the pop music too. We needed to prepare a performance for a graduate camp when we were P.6 and we chose to dance. It is the first time I listen to K-pop since it was the background music of the dance. Their MVs were usually matched with those neat dancing steps. I was amazed by the unification of their steps as I had never seen that appear on Hong Kong singers. Therefore, I started to concern about K-pop although I rarely listen to music before. I liked Super Junior-M before because they tried their very best to learn Mandarin and that is why there is an M after Super Junior. They want to spread their music to China and they have been successful. However, I don’t like them now because I think they only have good dancing skills and nothing else (I don’t judge a singer by their appearance). The songs sang by them are all about love. It is empty and meaningless to sing so many this kind of songs. They should use their influence on teens or public to do more meaningful things. Anyway, they are hard-working and I still appreciate them.
On the other hand, antagonistic rivalries between fans of different groups are so ridiculous. There are many factors of a singer who would be famous. These factors are not only due to their appearance but also the efforts they have put in. You can’t ignore it. No matter how bad a person is, if he/she try their best every time continuously, he/she would probably improve and become better and better! Just give some time to them and point out their weakness in a proper way (Not to simply ANTI them). Otherwise, there would be so many rivalries against each group and that will probably be a confusing problem for the groups as they can’t work together peacefully. As a whole, try to understand others and appreciate the strength of different groups.
Recently, I came across something called “MR Removed” videos. These are videos of live performances (mainly of K-Pop stars) with most of the background music digitally removed. The idea is that you can then hear the singers’ real voices more clearly. I just watched one video by the Wonder Girls, and the performance was atrocious. What do you think about these “MR Removed” videos?
MR… It’s probably what K-Pop idols are most criticized of. Indeed some of performances are horrible, but think about this: they are dancing to heavy beats while singing! I’m not trying to defend them, but let’s just say that leaves them room for improvement^^
I think we should be really careful about the “MR Removed” videos as some of them may be fake.🧐Some of them may be made by the haters or fans of the group so they may adjust the vocals by themselves.Therefore, I want to share with you a group that sings live in their performance so you don’t need to watch the “MR Removed” videos ,iKON, a boy group with 7members, 5 vocals and 2rappers.👏🏻 You can hear clearly every iKON members’ vocal in their performances, even the mistakes they make.😂iKON is really a group of talents as both dancers ,singers and rappers. 😍I highly recommend you to watch one of iKON’s live performances!
Oh, I am so impressed by Tracy’s comment. As I had been her neighbor for about a month, I see how K -pop affect her. When I saw that she wrote about “the handsome guy”,I burst into laughter, as I know about the handsome guy she mentioned.
I believe that it is a nice topic to discuss as you can find another K-pop fan. Recently,especially these few months, I’ve been feeling that K-pop music is all around me. My sister played them at home, Tracy sang the songs during lessons and recess, the CD stores played them, even the girl who sit next to me on the MTR train listened to K-pop music, and played them so loudly. I think my life have been “invaded” by Korean music.
I don’t listen to Korean music. But I think the most tempting is their dancing. There is no doubt that they are all amazing dancers, and most of them have a trim figure. However, I think that not every member or party can bring out their own character. The way they act, the impression they given to people, look very much alike.
K-pop music is becoming more popular. However, if they want to stand out from the parties or even to become world-wide popular, they must carry their own character, but also keep the tradition and speciality of Korean music.
Choi Siwon is very handsome.(the handsome guy)
Tracy told me.
In recent years,more and more teenagers are crazy for worshipping the singers or artist in Korea.in their eyes,the artist just like gods.They pay a lot of time and money to buy the CDs,magazine and something like photo album.Usually,they are quite expensive at all.It is ecause of the transportation charges and the value of limited eddition.But the teenagers still keep on buying them.So you can see how much influence K-pop has.
I do like Korean artist also because of their fantastic dance and songs.They are really attractive.Their fans can be found in every places .The group ‘2NE1’ is one of my favourate.They have enormous potentiality.There is a meaning in the name.It means ‘to anyone’.The leader ,CL,knows English,French and Japanese well.It leads the lyrics of their tracks have different style.CL is responsible for songwriting in groups.Also, she is a rapper too!Bom is main vocal.She has an attractive face.I like Dara the most.She was a actor before.Her voice is sweet!For Minzy,i think she is the most talented dancer among all the Korean female singers.Her dance is awesome!
2NE1 has many followers in the world.The followers always imitate their dances in MV and upload to youtube.Actually,the members are not as beautiful as the other singers in Korea like ‘the girls generation’.But they pay more and more than the others.They never rely on their faces to gain popularity.But they do a lot on the effect of stages,the designs of clothes ,the dances and the songs!I really show appreciation on their works.
Of cos!The others deserve to be appreciate too.They lead the trend of world in different aspects,for example the style of songs,the accessories and especially in the clothings!
“I want nobody, nobody but you…” The song “Nobody” sang by the Korean artist, Wonder Girls, was so popular in Hong Kong a couple of years ago that we could almost hear it wherever media players are available. I guess this piece of music help Hong Kong people get familiar with the K-Pop and gradually become interested in it.
However, I don’t really get to know more about K-Pop by the promotion of “Nobody”, but through the discussion about the Korean singers among my classmates. Whenever there are new K-Pop albums are released, many friends of mine who are K-Pop lovers, will usually refuse to have lunch in order to save money for purchasing them. Later, when they’ve got the album, they will be absolutely obsessed with the songs and keep on singing them in every recess. This shows that K-Pop music can sometimes drive people mad, haha!
In fact, I’m not a great fan of K-Pop. I reckon that the most important feature of a song is the lyrics. I personally think that it is quite meaningless for me to sing along by just memorize the pronounciation of the lyrics without any understanding. Therefore, as I can neither speak nor write Korean, so I rarely listen to K-Pop. Recently, I listened to a song named “Mr. Simple” by Super Junior because of the choosing of songs for participating in a dancing competition. To be honest, I don’t really like the melody but I do appreciate the way the talented artists dance.
I am forward to the coming up of some more outstanding K-Pop music with beautiful melodies and lyrics!
Blow your mind, K-pop will definitely blow your mind.
It is no doubt that more and more people is obessed with the Korean pop music. You can see K-pop fans anywhere around the world.The K-pop artists are just getting more and more successful and famous.For example the SM Town in New York,BIGBANG winning the EMA worldwide artist award,Girls’ Generation having fan meeting and interview in the US etc. These just showed that the world is paying more attention on those K-pop artists.So why is there so many people in love with them?What are their attractions?
For myself,I used to have no interest on K-pop music.I always couldn’t understand why people were so into it.But there was one day,I was wandering around YouTube.Then I clicked into a MV of a K-pop song,and I found myself being attracted by those neat dance steps.I was like wondering how can a group of people dance so uniformly? And this dragged my attention and I started to search in YouTube to see more videos about them.Then I found myself being enthralled.
I have to say,I really admire all these K-pop artists.Most of them were trainees in their company and trained for dancing,singing and acting for years.Such as Jokwon in 2AM had trained for 8 years and Jessica in Girls’ Generation had trained for 7 years until their debut. They worked so hard on every aspect so that they can be chosen to be a member in a new group.Such determination is really admirable.And therefore, i cannot understand people saying these Korean artists have no strength,they cannot sing,or even saying that all of them had plastic surgery.(maybe some,but definitely not all.)These saying simply showed their ignorant.
Also,another major factor that makes K-pop a hot issue around the world is the marketing of companies.Like the SM Entertainmet.Although we have to admit that they treated their artists badly,- – they really know how to promote a new group and making them famous,not only in Korea but in Asia.They are willing to put a bunch of money to train,promote,and making them a superstar.This is nothing can be compared in Hong Kong music industry— it is impossible for us to see a Hong Kong music agency investing so many money on training a new artist.
Talking about antagonistic rivalries between fans of different groups, I simply think that is stupid.=_=
We call them anti.They oppose a group maybe just because the group is getting too close to their own idol.For example,BEAST’s fans will oppose Goo Hara in KARA just because she is dating Yong Junhyung, the rapper in BEAST.(and i found that this phenomenon happened most in female fans,they just cannot accept their “oppa” dating others.) Or because of the competition between two groups with the similar style or achievement.Like Girls’ Generation and Wonder Girls. Or some antis will even make up a story to attack artists that they dislike. These antis not only created an unpeaceful atmosphere,they also affected their own idols’ image.Other people will then started to scold at the idols because of their fans’ behaviour. As not to hurt your own idols,please do not be a anti!
Finally,hoping more people in our class could have start to listen to K-pop music.And try to appreciate all these artists’ hard work!
PS. Happy to see f(x) finally “daebak” with danger and hot summer this year ^^ They really worked so hard and although I am not a huge fan of them,I still feel glad to see their excellent result this year!
Although I am A big fan of Taiwanese music, it is no doubt that K-pop is becoming more and more popular in nowadays. More and more Korean troups and idols are becoming popular in recent year.
A lot of people around me are addicted to K-pop. Some of them are used to be a fan of occidental idols, such as, Taylor Swift, Britney Spears,etc. Some of them are also used to be a big fan of local singers or band. However, most of them have become a fan of K-pop now. Their idols have been changed into Girls’ Generation, Super Junior, etc. These are some of the hot Korean troups in nowadays.
At first, I could not understand that why they are attracted by those Korean singers. It seems to be difficult for us to understand the Korean, which is not our mother language. Nevertheless, there is really a magic of K-pop. Therefore, many of us are tempted by it.
I think the reason why K-pop has become more popular nowdays is because of it catchy and tricky beat. You would like to sing-along and dance while you are listening to K-pops. Furthermore, interest in the fashion and style of the Korean idol groups and singers might also be one of the reason why K-pop are widespreading.
People could enjoy K-pop through the presence of Facebook fan pages, availability on iTunes, Twitter profiles,and also music videos on YouTube. Therefore, K-pop can reach a previously inaccessible audience through the Internet. By now, 2011, K-Pop had become popular in Japan,the Philippines, Taiwan, Singapore, France, China, Canada, the United Kingdom and the United States, etc. It is well-known around the whole world.
The first time that I listened to K-pop was because of my idol. Although he is a Taiwanese, he has always been dancing and singing Korean songs, which are the newest and latest. i think the melodies of those songs are quite catchy and the beats are strongs so I was forced to search for the songs. I start to listen to K-pop since that. Notwithstanding I start listening to K-pop, I am not really a big fan of it. I will only know about the hottest songs. Mr.Simple, Mr.Taxi, and Bubble Pop are some of me favourites K-pop. The mainly reason that I know them is also because of my Taiwanese idol.
Still K-pop is really magical.

Originally,I didn’t listen to K-Pop.But K-Pop become more and more popular.Many K-Pop music programme,such as K-pop and M!Countdown,are also played in Hong Kong.I watched them and I was addicted in K-pop because of their special dancing steps and sharp costumes.And the melody of the songs were attractive!!! I think the K-pop scene is colourful .It also matches with the music very much.The entertainment company,such as SM Entertainment,has spent many efforts on the production of the K-pop music videos and the training of the artists.Although I like many artists,I prefer Super Junior most.It’s because the styles of their songs are wide.The dancing steps and the melody of the songs are impressive and easy to remember.Sorry Sorry and Mr.Simple are good examples.Also the members of Super Junior are professional.Although the dancing steps are quite complicated,they practice hard and do very well.They are not only good at singing,but also have many strengths such as acting and dancing.That’s why Super Junior has many fans around the world.It’s difficult to prevent the antagonistic rivalries between fans of different groups.Each group of fans only want to support their idol,but they should respect the others.The fans should appreciate the strengths of different artists and it will make K-pop become more outstanding.
There is no doubt that I am a big fan of the k-pop music.I have been attracted by it on the last two years. Differ from many teens , the first k-pop music that I got in touch with were not ‘sorry,sorry’ and ‘Nobody’ ,which were performed by Super Junior and Wonder girls respectively.My first k-pop music is ‘I Hope’ that performed by FTIland .I am addicicted with k-pop music since that moment.
Besides the captivating smiles ,fair skins and good looking of the korean singers can greatly lead to the popuplarity of k-pop, its strong rhythems,unique dancing steps and addictive lyrics are the most important factor leading to k-pop success.
Also ,the promoting way of the korean groups goes a step further to enhance the popularity of the group. Super Junior is one of the example.Super Junior has developed branches ,such as SJM,SJT,SJKRY and SJ Happy. They added in new sigers in the branches.These new members can attract more fans, it pushes Super Junior to a higher achievement.
In the view of this result, some of the other groups inJapan and Korea imitate their way of doing. The famous Japanease big group,AKB48 is tne example. Same as SJ, it contains 48 members and they are distributed to different teams.
To the above reasons ,I conclude that that’s definitely why k-pop and j-rock music can be so hot around the asia and maybe also around the world.

Nowadays, teenagers in Hong Kong are mostly addicted in foreign music, especially for Korean music. As I am also a big fan of K-pop, I think I can explain why this could happen. Firstly, the music in Hong Kong mostly is talking about love but the atmospheres are totally sad and most singers are not well at singing. But the Korean music talks about different aspects and the themes are definite and the songs are lively and catchy also. We will be quickly addicted in these. To suppose that the Korean singers are not well at singing too, however they will be trained for a few years before they become singers, they will be well at dancing. This depends on the Korean Entertainment, particularly for the SM Entertainment. Girls’ Generation and Super Junior are some successful examples. The Korean singers are serious to their jobs and absolutely smile to the cameras although they are tired. They are all professional and left audiences fancy. By the way, the first chance for the people to get in touch with the singers is the MVs on YouTube. Korean music MVs are always containing colorful and attractive melodies, lyrics and dancing steps. This is the reason why they would success also.
To conclude, K-pop is outstanding and all people would love it I think.
I agree that K-pop is becoming more and more popular in recent years. Just take our class as an example. Last year, not many of us liked Korean idols. Amy Kwok, who liked Girls’ Generation, was one of the few who were already addicted to K-pop at that time. I used to laugh at her every day because of this. However, the situation changed after the summer holiday. Now, many of us are attracted to K-pop and almost all of the topics that we talk about are related to it.
In the past, I didn’t have any feelings towards K-pop. I found it difficult to understand why people were so in love with Korean music. We could not listen to Korean, nor could we speak Korean, so what was magic of K-pop that had driven people all around the world crazy? I kept on wondering until one day I saw a photo with a good-looking guy on it. I tried hard to remember his name and searched for videos on YouTube. There came up a number of clips that were from a popular variety show in Korea. While I was watching them, I laughed very hard. I began to understand why people were so in love with K-pop.
My favorite group is Super Junior. Their song, “Sorry Sorry”, was a great success. It brought them fame and popularity. A few months ago, they released their fifth album, “Mr. Simple”. The title song, “Mr. Simple” has a very catchy beat and is rather a sing-along song. You will definitely want to dance when listening to this song. Super Junior’s dance moves are always very enthralling, too. Their dance is always the aim of imitation of people all over the world. They are also very humorous. They tell amusing jokes and act jovially on TV. I enjoy watching their shows.
I have to admit that wherever there are different groups, antagonistic rivalries between fans will be resulted. This is inevitable. In most cases, these rivalries come from comparison between different groups. I understand that every single fan supports his/her idols, but it doesn’t mean that we have to vilify other people that are not our idols. In fact, we should try to appreciate each and every one of them because I’m quite sure that every one has his/her own style and passion. Even if one really doesn’t like them, there’s no need to calumniate. You can just ignore them and don’t pay any attention to them. If you start slandering them, it will just make you seem uneducated.
In the past, I was a little bit resist to K-pop. I love listening to all kinds of music but I couldn’t accept any K-pop.( I still do not know the reason why till now;p) I was addited to occidental pop and country music when I was a primary student. Besides, I appreciated local singers at the same time. However, one day I watched a K-pop music video in Form two accidentally. The way they dressed and the unification of their dancing steps totally shocked me at that moment. After that, I was really obessed with K-pop music and now I become a big fan of K-pop. I reallly appreciate the making of their music video. The music scene is always very colourful and fantasy. I ‘m sure every girl will love how they decorate the background of the music video.=) My favourite group is Girls’ Generation since I really love their attitude towards their work. They do their best everytime and try not to make their fans dissapointed. By the way, they are really talented as they are good at being hosts and even being actresses. Other than Girls’ Generation, there are many great artists and groups in Korea such as Super Junior, F(x), 4minute etc. K-pop is famous for the groups so you can listen to them first.
About the antagonistic rivalries between fans of different groups, I think it is not a proper way to express our devotion to our idols. I believe that there are many rivalries between different groups. However, this is an important condition in the entertainment industry as it can be a impetus for the artists to improve themselves. As a fan, we support our beloved idols but not to slander the other artists. The rivalries doesn’t help anything but only creat another problem for our idols so just stop doing these kinds of silly things anymore.
I am a huge fan of K-pop. K-pop always has additive dances and impressive songs,also handsome boys and pretty girls .Those makes me love K-pop. Also, Korean singers needed to have a long-term of training before debut,which makes them more hard working and professional than some of the singers in other countries.
I like Super Junior the most. It is because i think they sing and dance very well .Also,their attractive appearances are also one of the important factors :P. They are very hard working too. Although they have many shows and practices everyday,they have never shown their tired faces to the audience.
They are all professional artists.
Since there are so many groups,conflicts have come up between their fans. Some fans,who are more impetuous,may post some rude comments on the internet or show their resent through destroying the singers’ posters and cds .I think those bad behavior are unacceptable and disrespectful. We should show our respect to everyone. Also,we should be a rational fan.:)
Yes, this is the truth. K-pop is really popular, especially among teenagers. Well, I think most of the teens love the pop songs with airiness tempo and strong transcription and K-pop is just what all of us want. You can always see some teens are willing to wait at the airport to chase after their favorite K-pop stars. That’s why they do so. K-pop stars DESERVE us to love and value them.
In another words, to be honest, I have a huge crush on K-pop and my forever favorite Korean idol team, is the BEST in the world—BIGBANG! This is the idol team first debuted in 2006 in YG Family 10th Anniversary Concert. Their first debuted song is La La La which is in rap and hip hop style. The team includes 5 male members: G-Dragon, TOP, Tae Yang, Dae Sung and Seung Ri. They are very talented, charismatic and handsome and they almost do not have any weakness! They are strong (practice break dance), well-prepared for their future(always rehearse their show at night to make sure to have the perfectest show) and humorous(joking and making fun every second). I am such a great fans of them and may you please call me VIP(mean fans of BIGBANG).How can I tell you their talents? For an example, I will pick G-Dragon. Actually he is the leader of BIGBANG and can compose songs, beat box, rap, sing well, dance hip hop, remix songs(what the DJs do) and choose the suitable and fashionable clothes for himself. Do you find G-Dragon is freaking hot when he is with his blonde hair? Anyway, I prefer BIGBANG for those who have not known K-pop yet because their songs including the deep-meaning lyrics can hit everybody’s heart and inspire you in a different way.(I experienced it!) One of their hit songs Sunset Glow even is in the music textbooks in Korea! I am so proud of being a VIP!
2NE1, also in YG Entertainment with BIGBANG, is also a nice Korean idol team. All the female members in the team know how to express their feelings and emotion through music and dance. Their new song I Am The Best is very catchy, as the same with their style.
Why the K-pop stars are so popular nowadays? Surely, they were all being well-prepared during their childhood. When we are confused about choosing societies, they are already trained for being a star in the future. Sing course, dancing lessons and all the things are full of their childhood. Plus, we can see that mostly the more popular Korean artists, the earlier they were being trained, e.g. G-Dragon was trained since he was 8. You may not be able to imagine it but that is what they faced.
Usually, K-pop songs are with easy dance steps so that the fans can remember them easily. Girls’ generation is a good example. Their Oh! and Gee are very famous for cute dance moves and well-arranged steps. And all the sones(fans of Girls’ Generation) around the world dance these to express their support. This is also the difference between K-pop and HK-pop.
K-pop can spread to the whole world easily too. Their catch melody and nice dance moves are the reasons to success. Like BIGBANG, some of their fans are even French and British! This is the legend of pop and I think and hope sincerely it can last forever.
The antagonistic rivalries between different idol teams are very ‘normal’ to happen in Korea in fact. Koreans are addicted to chase after pop stars so they will care about how the artists behave and they will express their anger and strong feelings to the artists. Girls’ Generation, one of the idol team suffered from many antis because of their bad behaviors. I don’t think they were poor or else and I do think to should take the responsibilities to what they have done (like being impolite to others). Therefore, I agree the antis to anti the idols who do not behave well but they should do it in a peace way.
To conclude, I hope that everyone can understand K-pop more through reading this. I am not pushing you to love K-pop, but at least you should not say K-pop is rubbish. It is a music style that you will soon be additive to it and want to get more about it. Lastly, please try to value K-pop and Korean artists. They deserve to be famous because they really paid effort on their quality of show.
I think we should be really careful about the “MR Removed” videos as some of them may be fake.🧐Some of them may be made by the haters or fans of the group so they may adjust the vocals by themselves.Therefore, I want to share with you a group that sings live in their performance so you don’t need to watch the “MR Removed” videos ,iKON, a boy group with 7members, 5 vocals and 2rappers.👏🏻 You can hear clearly every iKON members’ vocal in their performances, even the mistakes they make.😂iKON is really a group of talents as both dancers ,singers and rappers. 😍I highly recommend you to watch one of iKON’s live performances!
I like both J-Pop and K-Pop.I think they are both very succesful and popular among all ages. The preparation before they started their career was done well and each group have their own style.
I like G.na and F(x) from Korea. G.na’s voice is quite surprising and sweet.G.na’s song’I will get lost, you go your way’ is great! I like F(x)’s style and their songs. Their dance moves are like ”WOW!” and their songs are very catchy.
SCANDAL is my favourite band and YUI is one of my favourite singers.SCANDAL is special in their own way and the members are very nice and friendly.Their songs and team work are amazing. They write some of their songs and I think they are brilliant in writing lyrics and the melody.Their songs are often used as movies or anime’s theme song.
I like FTIsland and Super Junior. FTIsland has their unique voice and great songs.Super Junior’s songs and dances are addictive! I also prefer f(x).Their style is cool and playful. Their songs are always easy to remember and ‘wash-brain’!
I think the Korean Entertainment Company(such as SM Entertainment) trains the artists well. This is a reason of that why does K-pop become successful. Some of the artists have been trainers for two to three years before they start their career. Some of the companies have their specific casting system to choose trainers to ensure the quality of each singer.
Moreover, the clothing;styling;matching;dance of every song have also well considered.
I am not a fan of K-Pop, but yes indeed K-Pop is now very popular. Especially among teenagers. We can see many K-Pop stars’ advertisement in front of many shops. One day, we were going back to school on the school bus after our choral speaking competition. Many classmates were happy and relaxed and they started singing Korean songs. Although I don’t know the song but I have heard many friends sing it before. However, I don’t know why it is so hot. I tried to search in the internet of the mv of those songs. I was shocked by those amazing dance and costumes the K-pop stars wore. Their dance were tidy and the music of the song is enegetic and lively. I also found out that before the K-pop stars carrer, they have to do a lot of training. They have to train in the company for eight hours every day. Also, they have less time to go home. Even in some special holiday, like Christmas and New Year. After watching these information of K-pop, I really appreciate the K-pop stars for their effort .The great performance on stage needs a lot of practice and hard work. I leant that if we want to do something well, we have to pay a lot of time, effort to finish it. I will learn from their determination attitude.
