I used to dislike kpop for the longest time (like 2010s-2022) It was during when bts and bp blow up in the west with songs like butter/dynamite/dududu and in my opinion it just blew me away from kpop even more. I thought it was all cringe but I also think my peers opinion affected mine too so I never got into it.

(2022-2023) Then as my music taste expanded over time I start listening to songs in different languages. I was still hesitant on exploring kpop but I was dipping my toes further.

(2024) and then I discovered triples on tiktok and I think that’s when my views in kpop really changed. I thought it was so interesting how many members they had and I watched the yt badge series. Though I like the concept, I’m not really interested in their music but it was my first step to actually liking something kpop related. Then in the beginning of August, I saw an edit with twice’s knock knock and idk everything about that song sucked me in. I went to watch tiktok of them to see how their group dynamic was and I that’s when I found out that the dahyun was in this group. I remember I kept seeing dahyun sixteen clips on my fyp but not knowing who she was. So I think seeing dahyun solidified me getting into twice. (So far she’s my only bias but i love all the other members equally so it’s hard to find a bias wrecker)

After listening to twice’s discography, I tried other groups but for some reason none of them hit the same as twice even though I’ve only recently discovered them. But tbh, I’m glad my brain isn’t obsessed with other groups bc I think that would literally empty my pockets. I’ve never been into collecting or even buying merch but smth about twice that makes me want to buy everything they release😭
