I feel like most of us probably got introduced into the world of K-pop through a song or artist that caught our interest, and that trickled into getting deeper and deeper into the whole industry. I’m curious about your guy’s story!

    For me, it was Blackpink. It was when covid hit, and I was just bored and trying to find new hobbies. I listened to D4, thought it was fun, and decided to actively participate in the comeback for HYLT. I LOVED that song, and I started looking up the users, watching their variety, etc. After that, the rest was history. I ultimately stan Dreamcatcher now, but I wouldn’t have known about them without Blackpink.

      Black pink was mine too with a very similar story. Mamamoo is probably my top group now and is great for introducing others to kpop.

        I only use Mamamoo if the person is into jazz. Their early stuff was very jazzy, so I put them into that box. I do like some of their more recent releases though.

      Dreamcatcher is a good choice. I’m glad that they’ve been able to achieve what they have.

      I like their Minx releases too.
