First off, I am a huge K-pop fan. Honestly, I love the music, the lyrics and meanings behind the songs. I like how K-pop idols care and value their fans. Finally, I like how much effort that K-pop idols put into their work.
I listen to other music occasionally but most of my music is K-pop or in Korean. Don’t get me wrong some American (English) music is great but I don’t think that many of the songs have much meaning other then revenge and broken relationships or lewd meanings.
My favorite K-pop group is called Seventeen. They may not be as popular as BTS but they deserve so much more attention. Don’t get me wrong I like BTS and honestly I started off stanning BTS but I found Seventeen and then I started stanning them. Seventeen is such a talented group, the rappers sing, the singers rap and they all can dance. I would highly recommend listening to some of their songs and watching a few of their live performances, their dance skills will amaze you.
I think that it is amazing how much K-pop idols love and cherish their fans. Most groups have songs dedicated to their fans and always remember to thank their fans at award shows. I honestly can’t say that American artists don’t treat their fans well because I haven’t really kept up with that but I think that they don’t value their fans as much as K-pop idols do. Another difference is that many K-pop idols wait for years training, perfecting themselves so that they can debut.
I have a lot of respect for K-pop idols because of the amount of work and effort they put into their careers. Majority of idols spent years as trainees before debuting, which meant years away from their families and even more time away as they debut. I don’t think that many artists from the U.S have to go through anything as grueling as leaving your family and friends so that they could become artists. I think this adds to the amount of effort that idols put into their work because they truly understand how privileged they are to have debutted.
Like I said before I do listen to some English music but not as much as I did before I fell into the K-pop hole. Before I was into K-pop, I listened to Meghan Trainer, Ed Sheeran, and other artists that I can’t remember. Now I don’t have any particular artists that I listen to often, but I do have favorite songs that I will put into a different post.
And that’s the end folks. Now you know that I like K-pop and who my favorite group is. I hope that you continue to read my posts so until we met again. Good bye.
