this video about to be common education of the globalization era

TBH I got interested into Kpop because of BTS. So my knowledge of Kpop is solely limited to BTS. It's good to expand a bit and this video was quite helpful

@UCDb4ce0lP_gDfOn2ekeez-g although I respect your opinion, remember that PSY made KPOP to be known. I still remember Ellen and Britney talking about his song and dancing on it. As well Obama's mention about SHINee. Let's respect the work done by the rest of people and their contributions to what KPOP become today. There is no deny that BTS went big but there is no need to disregard the steps paved by other KPOP groups. 😌🙏

@@kooscherries OMG yes🥺💜

That was before they got famous, now most of their songs are super generic and full of autotune

@@yessymoreno5967 if by 'famous' you mean when they blew up exceptionally, then let's take the works since 2020 1. BE- not one track in the 'BE' album was generic, production wise or lyrically. Infact it had the most creative and unique sounds, all the more appreciable since this album had heavy involvement of all members in the production and writing and not just the rappers. It was critically acclaimed by critics worldwide with very high ratings. 2. The three English singles- Having listened to a lot from their very vast discography, there are songs that are much more superior in comparison to the success of these songs. But for it to be completely different from the styles they have previously done, it was good to have light hearted Funk songs that showcase the diversity in comparison to all the dense topics they keep hitting. 3. The 3 new tracks of PROOF album- lyrics narrating their history. Yet to come was pop blended with old school hip hop. Run BTS was a mix of various styles of hiphop, and edgy vocals. For youth is a slow moody yet upbeat song which really pulled of even more with live vocals during shows. 4. Japanese singles (stay gold and your eyes tell) are such pretty and soothing songs with a steady build of vocals that bts's Japanese songs always give. 5. Special mentions (Subunits, collabs and solos): •My universe- by Coldplay and BTS •Stay alive, CHAKHO- by Jungkook (Prod. Suga) •That That- by Psy (Prod and Feat. Suga) •My You- by Jungkook •Left and Right- by Charlie Puth and Jungkook •Jack In the Box (album)- by Jhope [Generic? Musically, the tracks in here were such a risky move, with pure hip hop rock elements, super dark, hard hitting, real and personal lyrics, stacked to form a story. This was significant in kpop for an idol to to talk about such dark topics unabashedly. Something that always stood huge with bts and clearly the member still hasn't lost that essence. Check out jhope at lollapalooza. If you mean pre 2020, cause in terms of popularity they made it to the west and western awards by 2017, then this comment won't end explaining all the ways in which they have been anything but generic, musically, artistically or creatively.

@@rachelmartinez5604 ikr

When I saw the part of seo taiji talking about important issues like these, immediately thought to myself people at that time had great artists to look upto just like for me now BTS

I think that point kind of disregards that fact 1st and 2nd gen idols became popular with less access to content via the internet ( VHS, tv interviews, magazine, film and tv show soundtracks). The access to content was delayed and it was harder to find. Plus these artist were popular even though the content wasn’t translated full in English.

HARD FACT

Interesting! My introduction to Kpop was Big Bang, Super Junior, 2PM, SHINee, BTOB and EXO back in 2012 and I've been hooked to many groups since, including BTS. My current favourites are TXT, Monsta X, EXO, WayV (and all of NCT), Seventeen, Ateez and Dreamcatcher though and have been for a while now, especially TXT since their music, lyrics and stories resonate a lot with me.

Everything. Their message, lyrics, choreo, songs, visuals, their personality, the way they treat their fans, their company's marketing strategy, etc. and most importantly, how hardworking and talented they are. As you can see, bts started from the **very** bottom during their early days and worked their @$$es out for years just to reach where they are today. BTS is just a group you can never imagine. It's also just LUCK! We know that it's nearly impossible to reach this global impact without anyone backing you, but they tried their very best to reach their peak (they still haven't reach their peak yet till this day..) I guess it is also because they existed in the era where technology has evolved like social media, that became more accessible for a much wider audience. It also has something to do with the society, BTS knows how to blend in and catch up with the trend that maked them more and more recognized. BUT, even if you're an artist that has been born in this modern world, your future still isn't predictable, cuz sometimes, there are people who are THERE for a reason. So, we can't blame BTS for other artists's failure, like as what SUGA (bts member) said in his song: "crazy to think that you think that my success has a connection to your failure." I don't know the exact lyrics but it's something like that :) so yea, in short, Bang Si-Hyuk's formula was really something else.

Denise Ong felt like bowing or some shit😳

It shows that many artists have contributed to K-pop's world domination. BTS, like many before them, have just taken it to the next step. Many after BTS will also keep taking it up to new heights. What makes BTS special (besides all the amazing things that make them special 😂) is that they have broken into mainstream media. That is arguably the biggest obstacle foreign artists face. But they haven't broken it just for them, they're allowing other groups to come through too.

I agree. Also as someone who's been a kpop since 2009, I'm so happy that finally we can end the discussion about which gen Apink is in. I've always said this, but generations really can't be divided per decade. With that being said, I FULLY agree with EXO being the dominant group within the transition to 3rd gen, meaning ggs like Apink, Girls Day, AOA, and the like are all late 2ND GEN groups. :)

I agree

Include straykids too!

I dont think we can claim 4th gen yet they havent hit that big yet
