really? well, still, the presence of kpop in Japan seems much stronger than presence of jpop in Korea

or maybe jpop acts haven't really tried yet, idk

During those drunk livestreams he used to do that would get him in trouble, that Avex guy all but said jpop does not have a global market, and the point of XG is to find a global market on the coattails of kpop.

Jnetz acted the same way when Kpop groups were announced to performs at their NYE shows. Cnetz are also very xenophobic too. It’s just that their forums are less accessible to intl fans :toofunny3:

I feel bad for Japanese fans. Imagine being a fan of a k-pop group, streaming their songs, going to their dome concerts but once their jpop acts try the opposite, to break out into the Korean market, knetz are fuming and spewing their xenophobic nonsense

I understand that the history between the two countries hasn't been perfect but damn I'd feel slapped in the face

 

i'm not surprised, they will most likely be treated like EVERGLOW by Knetz, it would be a smart and safe decision for them to build a fanbase in Japan by promoting there aswell

As of now, it has been a boring start of 2023

we got NewJennies slayage, XG

a lot of groups are coming with full albums this year, it looks very promising to me! 

BP’s Coachella too 

 

both western and kpop scene seem so fun to me again :flower: it kinda feels like pop renaissance (thank you Beyonce) with Miley, Zara, Dua, Doja coming and all of great 4th gen kpop gg coming with full albums

Yeah jpop hasn't really tried because the korean music market isn't really that relevant, especially compared to Japan's (which is why kpop groups did try to break into Japan's for so long) but now that kpop has a global niche I guess things changed lol

I doubt it'll go anywhere tho, there'll probably be more random clout chaser groups but the jpop music industry in general is still very... conservative (?) with exporting their stuff :redface:

Yes taeyong you should thank that one group :rip: I mean the entire industry is benefiting from them (even if y'all would d*e before admitting it) but not bts literally feeding mouths :rip:

nothing new, I still get Pink Venom and Antifragile each time I play any kpop song as a two first suggested songs since like a month :deadbanana4: obviously I don’t mind that since I like them (but it’s a bit annoying), I guess Spotify algorithm just works this way

But the history between these countries is very interesting and you can understand why some from China and SK despite the hell of Japan (one of the few things these two countries agree on :deadbanana4:)

Do we know which genre is exporting better right now? Kpop or Mangas/animé ?

As a gaeul enthusiast I hate to say it but Yujin is the best dancer. She deserved the love dive dance break center. :gaygacat5: It’s not the hair but she doesn’t have the energy she needs to start overdancing

Gaeul lack power and strength bc she’s very skinny. That’s why Yujin is easily the best dancer (also more experience ofc) 
 

Gaeul, Leeseo and even Liz have good potential to improve if SS trained them more. 

yeah i agree with these as well

i still think hair plays a huge part though :giraffe:

Anime/Manga are way bigger and it's not even close

kpop fans thinking this is a nonsense payola going on but this really is based on your own algorithm though :skull: so if omg is showing up its cause you listen to it/them a lot. the most popular kpop song playing while you listen to kpop is not shocking

 

It would be payola if you were listening to like shakira or sza & omg played after like what happened when i was listening to kpop & a sabrina carpenter song played, *thats* payola

NewJeans smashing on such a global scale feels like a shift in k-pop is happening (BTS and BP blowing up teas)

Baemon’s debut might officially start the 5th gen i fear

Manga/Anime for sure, I'd be surprised if kpop ever reaches that level, mostly because music is way harder to truly globalize than visual media :bam:

The NewJeans stages of yesterday that people were saying it's live technically aren't, right? They look like they were recorded at least two times. Like, in the Ditto one in the close shots you can see the cameraman's shadow in the girls in the close shots but the next shot from far away shows no camera close to them.

Shooting Star is amazing :WAP: that chorus has sooo much replay value! such a vibe, I kinda wish they would release it in the summer instead, perfect for chill evenings 

 

I bet it would take off if they would put it on some big playlists

The guy  whipping at the end :bibliahh:! I need a gif! That was a good performance, Brigitte gave them a nice stage 
 

 

Can’t wait for Coachella
