I can't tell if people ironically like it or just like the women in it? It seems like if it was western music it'd just be considered shit like the majority of mainstream pop music from the USA.
Do people on this board actually like K-pop?

have you seen those threads? just picture of women. no one talks about music.
Gavin Brooks
u mad?
Asher Nelson
So they just save pictures of Korean popstars...why?
David Green
music discussion only happens in gaypop hours
Jason Evans
No, just wondering if people actually like K-pop because it doesn't line up with the boards usual tastes.
David Green
music is music
that said, they're not in it for the music
Adrian Morris
to jack off to them i'd assume. and they steal our gets too.
Hudson Edwards
People like it because it's different from western pop.
Cooper Davis
annyeon Sup Forums
Asher Ramirez
The same as with Paramore threads, St. Vincent, Björk, Grimes, the retards who start a thread with "what do you think of X body of work"... It really sucks to be a woman in the music industry.
Levi Harris
That video is still so fucking funny tho. Just watched it, thanks for the reminder.
Ryder Hughes
Why not just flap your cock to some asians on your favorite pornsite and dont flood music threads with these pseudo-cute whores?
Connor Gonzalez
I'd like to think Björk and St. Vincent threads garner a little more musical discussion
Nolan Reyes
Similar to the reason you don't get aroused at the beach.
Carter Rogers
Check the current one:
Tyler Mitchell
The only "discussion" on these threads is "lel bjork is so pretty" and "wow their music is so perfect bros!"
waifufags are the cancer of Sup Forums. Always been, always will be.

>It really sucks to be a woman in the music industry.
it must be awful to get attention and money far outstripping your talent, it's so hard to be a woman
Connor Perez
It's just waifubait, no one actually gives a shit about the music. at least nowhere near as much as the image.
Hunter Rodriguez
they are mentally defunct underages. I've been trying to get them kicked out for a while now. American waifus have even more autistic and invasive following but its cancer all around.

I like some of the kpop songs but those threads creep me out
Still they're nowhere near as bad as the grimes scum and don't shit up the board like 80 IQ trap fans
only visually
Brandon Howard
i really like this aoa group, it looks like they make the best music and the blonde one is the cutest i love her
Hunter Bell
holy shit, how deep into the depression spiral are you?
Mason Parker
give it a try
Brandon Rivera
kamehameha?
Luis Martin
don't even start you moroni
Ayden Thomas
she looks like a worthless slut
Andrew Moore
fucking moron shut up you don't know anything about her
Kevin Nguyen
yikes....and still it's shit.
Asher Gutierrez
If this shit was from the USA, You'd be saying how shit it was. it's still just the lowest common denominator pop music for the most part.
Michael Turner
i thought the same before i actually listened to it
Owen Roberts
i've just been listening to the songs for the last 10 mins, they just sound like mainstream pop feat korean lyrics.
Angel Scott
who is the blond in the AOA group? she looks the cutest and their music is really good
probably the best of the list
Jackson Russell
So, the thing is this board and the site it belongs to are Korean in origin, and still has an enormous amount of traffic from that part of the world (usually while the West sleeps). The "K" in K-Pop stands for Korea, it is pop music from Korea.
Also, "this board's tastes" are an illusion, and you will see this unfold the longer you've been here. What's hot today is reprehensible tomorrow.
Christian Torres
which ones and what american pop songs do they resemble
Matthew Cook
that's Blondie McWhoreface
Henry Johnson
Everyone here is a pretentious faggot that feels superior above everyone else, who would have fuckin guessed, youve unraveled the mystery
Oliver Brown
shut up moroni
Camden Thomas
it is just concentrated waifuism.
like if all the waifufags who masturbate over white pop stars went into one thread.
there would be literally no difference other than the music would be less varied in kpop threads.
Jace Nguyen
actually they are active mostly when america is posting. quiet when europe and the east are awake.
Lucas Diaz
WOLFMOTHER, YOU SUCK
Kevin Price
k-pop is more popular internationally than in korea. it hasn't been that big in korea itself since 2012
the music is not that different dude. a gigantic amount of these songs have the same songwriters and arrangers as western hits although they will alter the structures between markets. to be fair, a large number of kpop songs have fairly irregular structures compared to western pop songs and are typically more jazz influenced with their progressions. it isn't a major difference though and as trap / edmshit has gone into korea hard the differences are becoming more minimal. there is almost nothing indigenous about these differences
Dylan Gutierrez
WHAT DECADE IS IT?
Henry Green
>the music is not that different
you can keep saying that but my ears disagree. it might sound similar to you if you haven't listened to enough of the songs just like with any genre. i've been listened to kpop for 5 years and every time i check out american pop radio it's definitely not the same.
youtube.com
youtube.com
do you think these 2 songs sound the same? i don't.
i just want to know. what songs have you listened to and what western pop songs do they resemble? it's not a hard question. i want to find more music that sounds good to me so if you have some recommendations that are similar to the songs i linked above then please share.
Brody James
So you own an onihole?
Brandon Evans
no but i've thought about getting one
Ryan Foster
i listen to kpop, it's influenced by western pop but far surpasses it in technical ability and style
Cameron Nelson
Okay, but why Korean POP? Why not a more interesting genre from Korea? One with some male artists even?
Adrian Perez
>male artists
Come on now
Stop trying to pretend they arent for it just for the waifu baits
Parker Gray
kpop is an umbrella term tho
k-hiphop/r&b/ballads etc are considered kpop
Owen Cook
Not that guy you replied to, but the BM songs you linked do have similar aspects to them. it's a bit of a false argument though since you're comparing two vastly different genres in terms of influence.
Gavin Davis
>Why not a more interesting genre from Korea
I don't even like kpop all that much and I know that it's the most interesting music that has ever come from Korea. I don't get the hate though, just because you can listen to more complex music like, say Tomorrow Never Knows or Blue Monday or whatever, that doesn't mean you can't enjoy pop. The songs are fun and the production is fantastic.
Hunter Brooks
lol, literally easy mode enabled for every vapid whore attempting to be a creative lil flower, as if women have it hard what a load of shit.
Tyler Morales
>he BM songs you linked do have similar aspects to them
but as a whole the songs are different.
Chase Sanders
it think Sup Forums should turn into /kpg/ because we run this shit
we only let you post non-kpg related stuff because we've been humble but until now
Ayden Rivera
Sup Forums has the moral higher ground over kpg until you actually bother to lurk Sup Forums

You guys aren't fooling anyone but yourselves
Nicholas Perez
you forgot the trap threads which are a much worse genre than kpop in every way imaginable and are tolerated because 'kek im so lit and BLACK PERSON SWAG'
Isaiah Perry
>It really sucks to be a woman in the music industry
Yeah, because selling music that other people have created with your body like a whore while getting paid millions of $ each year really sucks
Caleb Baker
sucks dicks, yes
Sebastian Ortiz
Theyre really hot you should look up some korean/chinese model porn. Its so amazing even though theyre all side angle videos made by the johns who bought them with no cameraman.
Jack Anderson
mfw you realised these people that like kpop are the ones bitching about how bad Radiohead and Neutral Milk Hotel etc is.
Kevin Morales
It confused and hurt me when i was 15 and thought wolfmother was the coolest band ever ;(
Austin Allen
Please please don't fucking bring them up they're annoying as fuck.
They're in their containment threads most of the time and it's like a completely different board going into them.
Colton Morgan
Grimes make her own music though, their are plenty of women that make their own music.
Logan Taylor
but i like itaots and the bends
Jason Carter
>They're in their containment threads
everything outside of /kpg/ is the containment zone
Elijah Diaz
most of us listen to male groups as well. they produce lots of good stuff
youtube.com

as for why kpop? there's tons of different sub-genres within kpop so it never gets boring and we get good new songs every week. the girls are beautiful which doesn't hurt the entertainment aspect with all the shows and other stuff going on.
although most of you seem to think that it's just waifu worship... hardly anyone would care about kpop if the music wasn't fun - see jpop.
at the end of the day it's just one genre. nobody listens to kpop exclusively so there's no need to be worried
Thomas Butler
for some strange reason here people separates music from performance, i think its to keep it "pure"
the problem is that it never happened, music and performance have always been linked. the person on the stage is a character regardless if its a "braindead korean girl" or a "deep artistic indie artist", the platonic purity they seek and revere never existed
Connor Butler
I think these comments just prove the point that it sucks.
Elijah Hill
does it really matter if the person on stage is "real" or "authentic"? realistically you'll never know who they really are.
the most important thing to me will always be the music, everything else is a bonus. admittedly there's lots of "bonus" content in kpop. it's what gets people hooked long term I suppose but it doesn't hurt the music in any way - it's just fluff
