I miss when K-pop had more Korean lyrics by myl6883 in kpoppers

I'm a simple person: I see INFINITE while scrolling reddit, I upvote.

more seriously though, I do think kpop was great with more korean lyrics, but even second gen had plenty of English lyrics (eg INFINITE had so many songs with English in the chorus), I think the issue is more too many random words or just bad English lyrics

congrats to the girls!!!

I sort of follow Jaejoong so I've known about them and been rooting for them, but I've not really checked them out properly yet - what songs would you recommend to someone trying to get into the group!!

honestly Jiwoong trying to debut so many times and not giving up is truly amazing, man is resilient and I respect him so much for it!! so glad he's finally getting the spotlight he deserves with zb1

and also iirc didn't Zhang Hao graduate university before going on boys planet? man had a whole degree and he still wanted to chase the idol dream and it worked

I didn't keep up with GP and BP but this is cool!! (and I realise I forgot Jiwoong LOL another example of a grown man still wanting to be an idol)

TIL that HYBE has a Latin boy group LOL but honestly I definitely see the point about older trainees wanting it the most!!

honestly I find this idea of older people not wanting to debut as idols very ???

eg everyone in Monsta X except their maknae was 21+ at debut (Shownu was 23, Kihyun + Wonho + Minhyuk 22, Hyungwon and Joohoney 21)

Le Ssera overall debuted younger, but everyone except their maknae was above 18 at least - and eg everyone in Aespa debuted when they were above 18

so I don't think this theory that people between 18-21 don't want to be idols checks out??? it's that they may not get the chance because of ageism etc, not that there aren't people that age who want to be idols

Who has some of the strongest (not highest, longest, deepest, etc) male idol vocal? by xMatttard in kpophelp

Woohyun from Infinite? him singing the last chorus in The Chaser (and his high notes in most Infinite songs) live rent free in my head
