Can somebody explain the appeal of Kpop...

Can somebody explain the appeal of Kpop? From what I've heard it just sounds like generic soulless boybandshit that's somehow even shallower than western pop music. Is any of it actually worth listening to or is it just for the waifus?

They have nice legs

K-pop is perfectly designed to have a western market. It's accessible to western listeners and has enough Asian "mystique" to stick out in a marketing sense.
It's attractive girls with plastic surgery makes it fit like a jigsaw puzzle with waifufags on Sup Forums. You can tell that it's mostly for the waifus if you look at a k-pop general.

I'm assuming due to your name and the songs you linked that this is b8

nah it's waifus

i mean there's definitely kpop songs that blow their western counterparts out of the water but they're few and far between. if you have to ask, it's waifus and husbandos

South Korea is paying huge money to make it become an export, USA pop culture is the honey pot they are going after.
All the kpop threads are shill

Sad thing is that it's probably going to work, we've had way worse shit shoehorned into American Culture that was gobbled up.

>"Kpop isn't soulless generic garbage"
>posts soulless generic garbage

Bu-but muh different languages!

Partly this
And partly that pop tends to be catchy and vacuous and appeals to the mass market
Weebs are estranged from western culture so shun western pop but being idiots are inclined towards simplistic music, as such they fawn over k-pop.
I

As if anybody doesn't know exactly what them gook bitches are saying.
I'm hot
I'm a whore
Look at my stuff
Etc etc .......10 years later "I was sexually assaulted by producers!"

Is there any essential k-pop albums (or whatever) for someone who does not give a fuck about waifus/husbandos?
I just want some happy, catchy, quality pop..

>weebs
>kpop

Looks like it all copies USA rap videos from the 90s as it's visual style.
The music is just kids singing fast over generic pro tools beats.

Kpop sucks but honestly do everyone a favor and kys

Bait? Or just really pathetic shitposting?

Nah, I agree with You just seem like the salty neckbeard looser type who tells everyone "women don't like me because I'm too nice" and shit. Fuck off.

Really pathetic shitposting it is.
Thanks for clearing that up dummy.

>people who like kpop only listen to kpop
>muh weebs
>i listen to industrial, noise and shoegaze garbage fuck le gooks xd it's souless
>spooderland is so deep bro

The South Korean gov spent many many millions on a plan to massify Kpop worldwide.
Also as others said, shallow americanized pop so sound-wise it's not weird for westerners. I'm still surprised it somehow broke the language barrier though, that's a hard one.
And yeah the girls have nice legs and nice surgery faces.
But it's mostly due to all the money the korean gov spent to spread it.
I live in a 3rd world shithole and Kpop is even popular here.

If you want actual good asian pop, obviously you should listen to Jpop. They don't care about appealing to the west, in result the music is better and less shallow/boybandish.

Why would that be bait this shit is embarrassing

^^ as he gazes upon his penis ^^

>76463635
Kpop niggers don't deserve (you)s

the girls looking like teenage dolls actually kinda creeps me out sometimes desu, but I'm in my late 30s so that's probably normal at this point. at least kpop isn't trying to pretend to be something it's not, no one is arguing that the members are amazing musicians or anything like that and they just seem to be enjoying it for what it is, most ppl will grow out of it so who cares

did i hit a neve :) i know exactly the kind of barely 18 year old memelords that sperg out over there being a kpop thread on their precious moo instead of just using the neat little filter function.

more people should be like you and yes most of us will grow out of it eventually, but it's just fun if you are young. kinda like videogames.

>it's not in english therefore it's experimental

This

How do Asians dress like whores yet still manage to have less personality than a robot?? Amazing really

i just like how it sounds idk
ive been into it for a near decade so I'm kinda stuck here at this point

Sub-80 IQ basement dwellers watch it to fap to the music videos with their 2.3 inch dick.

Is this the peak of projection?

this

bait because anyone who has a half decent ear would know why kpop or any other style of genre is popular

porn is banned in korea

Already shilling on weeb culture
kyss

J-pop past 2006 is 95 percent otaku collectorshit for pedos, the fact they don't care about appealing to the West is not necessarily a good thing

Kpop songs have great production and are musically advanced (for pop). You can easily find songs with modal interchange and borrowed chords.
youtu.be/IvSIFxgbFYc here are few songs of popular girlgroup played on a piano. It's easier to hear what is going on harmonically. The simpliest way I can explain awesomeness of kpop is being extremely catchy and musically interesting, which is almost opposite of western pop (4 chord songs).

The TRUE and HONEST reason is that it's just regular ole generic pop top 40 mass appeal shit, but you can't tell how terribly written the lyrics are because they're in another language so somehow it's better

Just listen to older stuff from the 90s-00s if you aren't interested in waifus

Kill yourself you faggot

It's fucking epic that's why

>BTS
noice

Have you seen their performance at AMA 3 days ago?

youtube.com/watch?v=tNtcYIo6N04

>gaypop
>epic

did they win any awards

It take it from every genre with impressive production and danceable and visuals. The genre is based of the fictional persona around the music.

Anyways, it's popular music, you moron. Popular music is generic, follow the same formula. The ideas could change but its almost the same shit, call it Queen, Radiohead or Muse.

that's just wrong. listen to top 40 western pop and

>listen to dated trash

just listen to kkb instead

your list sucks and is barely representative of good kpop
