Cultural origins 1940s, South Korea
K-pop (Korean: 케이팝; RR: keipap), short for Korean popular music; is a genre of music originating in South Korea as part of South Korean culture.1 It is influenced by styles and genres from around the world, such as pop, experimental, rock, jazz, gospel, hip hop, R&B, reggae, electronic dance, folk, country, and classical on top of its traditional Korean music roots.2 The more modern form of the genre emerged with the formation of one of the earliest K-pop groups, the boy band Seo Taiji and Boys, in 1992. Their experimentation with different styles and genres of music and integration of foreign musical elements helped reshape and modernize South Korea's contemporary music scene.3

kpop Has Many Fans across the world from ages ranging from 5-70+ (yes we're diverse). In the kpop world, you'll meet alot of kind ,hardworking artists and sweet fans, also the artists work day and night to please everyone. That's why you'll see everyone appreciating them left and right. Kpop has alot of talented ppl even some fans are talented themselves and it's really amazing to see how one genre of music unites so many people across the world. But there are people who generalize kpop fans based on what they see on Twitter. and that's wrong. like idk why but if they see what they consider a kpop "stan" they'll instantly assume that all kpop fans are this way. And that's not how it works. anyways this is getting too long for a damn definition so I'm just gonna get to the point:

don't hate on kpop if u only base ur experiences from twitter
me: can someone help Rollin is stuck in my mind ༎ຶ‿༎ຶ

someone who doesn't know anything about kpop: "iS tHaT tHE nEw bTS sONG?"
