As long as it's related to K-pop and fits in BZP's rules, bring it this way! Post your favorites! Feel free to share song cover videos, dance cover videos, stories about your experiences with the genre and the fandom, whatever. A few guidelines: Keep the fandom wars out of here. I don't care if you're old guard or new guard, boy band or girl group fan, ARMY or EXO-L, whatever. We're all K-pop fans here, let's just enjoy the genre together. So what if someone likes a group you don't like, or dislikes your stan/bias group? Let them be.No bashing. If you absolutely must express your criticisms of a group or even the genre as a whole, do so in a way that is respectful and constructive.Let's avoid discussing the politics of the industry. I'm pretty sure that's a recipe for disaster, especially around these parts.Now, about me. Discovered it in 2006 through BoA and a few hip hop artists (Drunken Tiger, for instance). Sorta forgot about it from 2006-2010 until a friend showed me Abracadabra. Consistently became a fan of the genre between 2011-2016. Jumped on the Gangnam Style hype train in 2012, but now I hate that song because of how much it was milked. Went borderline Koreaboo in 2013 (never went full Koreaboo). Did dance covers for college talent shows between 2013-2016. Was very on-and-off in 2017 because I was losing my spark with it, and it was starting to feel very "been there, done that". Very slowly getting back into it because Red Velvet's new stuff are my jams. I don't like to just identify as one fanclub (SONE, ARMY, EXO-L, whatever). I just like whatever appeals to me. I don't have any strong dislike towards any group. While I genuinely respect the current industry giants BTS and Twice, and like a good chunk of their songs, I personally find them overrated. I think they're good at what they do, but I personally don't see what makes them stand out as much as everyone is making them out to. If someone would like to enlighten me, please feel free to. All that said, let's talk!

So, anyone else like K-pop? Come on, this is a big place, I can't be the only one! It's Fantastic, Baby! ...sorry, sorry. For real. Let's talk about K-pop! But first, let's be civil. Let's keep fandom wars/rivalries out of here, and don't just come here to hate. Just feel free to talk about your favorite groups, biases, MVs, dances, albums, comebacks, etc. I won't judge you. Unless you like Wa$$up. (Kidding, I actually like their self-titled debut song. Plus, what harm does it do you if someone else likes a group you don't like?) So let me start off. I mostly listen to girl groups/female artists (Sistar, Secret, Rania, 2NE1, G.Na, Lee Jung Hyun, just to name a few), but I like a few boy bands too (VIXX, Epik High, SHINee, among others). But female artists are more my thing altogether.
