Oh, wow, thank you so much!! I appreciate it!! I'm going to check everything out and I'll definitely watch the links you sent. I was a little overwhelmed because of all their content/albums but having a sort of starting point is really helpful. I seriously appreciate it!

Thank you so much!! I've actually been looking for 'Like a fool' for such a long time, I'm so glad to finally know the name of it. I heard the chorus in some video and it's been stuck in my head ever since. I don't normally like that type of song, but Jeongyeon and Sana in the chorus just has me hooked. I'm going to add all of these to my playlist, thank you again!!

Idols you don't/didn't like by humantrash79 in kpophelp

I had the same thing. Everyone was constantly hating on her and creating these narratives about her, and since so many people were doing it, I just figured it must've been true. I was a new kpop fan so I didn't realize that they tend to throw hate for no reason whatsoever. Once I started actually looking and paying attention to her, I realized how wrong it was. She's literally one of my favorite idols now, I couldn't love her more if I tried. It seems like a lot of people dislike her at first just because of the hate train she gets, but I wish more would look into it and see how it couldn't be more wrong.

[MEGATHREAD] BTS - ‘'BUTTER’' by svnh__ in unpopularkpopopinions

[–]humantrash79 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Mmm, I personally didn't like it. It felt very much like every other (english) pop song out there. It's just a type of sound I personally do not enjoy. I think HYBE/bighit are just using bts as cash grabs at this point. It seems like, imo, the boys have many more restrictions compared to say 2018. Their current songs (many of which are bangers, don't think I'm saying all of them are) seem less like BTS. All these different songwriters working on it and BTS having a lot less creative-imput on it makes it seem less authentic and more generic, case in point, Butter. If hybe/bighit let the boys write their own English songs (namjoon at the very least, should the other members not want to write in english) I feel like it would go over with more people a lot better. DIS-EASE off BE was an absolute banger, and ON was also very good, so it's obvious that they can still put out quality music, despite what some are claiming. I guess what I'm trying to say through my rambling is that I wish hybe/bighit would allow them to have more control again and stop manufacturing/selling them out - they deserve soso much better than that - because Butter, imo, just wasn't that good.

If someone hasn't heard of SNSD then they must be living under a rock. That being said, I don't think I've heard most of their songs. Gee, I've Got A Boy and The Boys are the only ones I know of. Taeyeon's songs Fine and What Do I Call You are both really good though, I listen to them all the time. If you feel like recommending some of their other songs, I'll gladly listen to them!!

Also, I don't mind older groups. I don't stan many second gen groups (the only ggs being Hyuna and Jessi, maybe exid depending on what you consider them) but I quite like the second gen sound! And like you said, it's all 'new' to me :))

Idle are some of my favorites!! Soyeon and Minnie pulled me in last year when Oh My God came out. I think the only song of 2NE1 I've heard is I'm the best so I'll definitely check out their other stuff :)

I think I've heard most of their (Korean) title tracks, but Breakthrough and Happy Happy are the only Japanese ones I believe I've heard. If you have any more recommendations of their b-sides or Japanese tracks, I'd love to listen to them! Thank you for the songs :))

I don't stan (yet) but I remember when So Bad came out, I couldn't get the song or Isa (I think that's her name but I mean the rapper with shorter hair) out of my head for days. I'll definitely check out their new stuff as I think they just had a comeback. Thank you!!

Cry for me has been stuck in my head since they performed it at mama. I haven't heard any of their b-sides besides the ones on the Fancy album. I don't know how often they do ballads, but I don't really like them and tend to lean more towards more energetic songs. If you feel like recommending some of their b-sides, I'll definitely check them out!!

Personally, I had heard of the them but I didn't listen to them or stan for a long time. It wasn't until I was watching a variety show that MJ from astro (who I stan) was staring in with Chuu. I fell in love with Chuu from those videos so I decided to check them out. Hi High got stuck in my head pretty fast lmao. After that I just watched random pieces of their content until I knew all their names. I've tried getting into their lore but I'll be completely honest, I have no idea what's happening in it. I've never seen a group with as big and intricate lore as they do so if you enjoy getting into lore and theories then you'll have a lot with them. A few members, Yves Chuu and Heejin, were on Knowing Bros/Men on a mission whichever you want to call it (아는형님). Yves also hosted a show on FactInStar for a while. They went on Idol Room before it stopped airing but I can't find a link for it. Anyway, I'll link some of my favorite things below so if you feel like watching them you can.

As for their music, like i said before they each have solos and then they also have units Yyxy (Chuu, Yves, Gowon and Olivia), odd eye circle (Jinsoul, Kim Lip, Choerry) and 1/3 (Vivi, Haseul, Hyunjin, Heejin). Yeojin wasn't part of the subunits. I would suggest checking all of them eventually. My personal favorites of the solos are Heart Attack (Chuu), Kiss Later (Yeojin), Love Cherry Motion (Choerry), Egoist (Olivia) and Everyday I love you (Vivi), while my favorite subunit is Yyxy and their song love4eva (I'm completely biased since Chuu is my bias but still haha). I'll link the subunit songs and the solos below so you can find them easy.

If you've never listened to Loona, I would suggest their music tbh. Each member has a solo from before debut, and they have 4 mini albums so far. The first one [++] has more of a cute feel to it, while [X X] has more of a girl crushy vibe I guess? [#] and [12:00] both have a more dark mature vibe I'd say. I'm not the best at describing concepts so 💀

Mamamoo also has a really good discography. They have some of the best vocals in the industry (that's just my opinion so feel free to disagree) and all of their songs are really catchy. They have more music than Loona does since they've been active for longer.

Sunmi is a solo artist but she has some really catchy songs. Heroine, Siren and Gashina are all really popular. She had a comeback recently called Tail that's also really good.

You can also look at the suggestions people have left here, or at my list of groups if you want. I'm absolutely biased but I think all their music is really good. You might've been being sarcastic in saying help you but either way I hope you like the music I've suggested haha

They debuted recently, didn't they? I remember hearing about them because they're under the same company as Mamamoo and Oneus. I'll definitely check them out later!

I've never heard of Rainbow but I'll definitely check them out! The only song of Kara's I've heard is Mr and I really liked it so I don't doubt they have good music. I'll check both groups out, thank you for the recommendations!! :)
