>>122589179I've never heard a K-pop song in my life and couldn't tell you what it sounds like.
>>122589179>>122589179Kpop is popular for the same reason streamers and vtubers are popular. There are a lot of lonely hikikomoris in society nowadays and they need parasocial interaction. Kpop isn't about the music. Go look in the general- they'll never discuss music. Kpop is 90% parasocial.
One Direction and My Chemical Romance quit at about the same time and the fanatic girl horde latched onto BTS and such because the rest of American music was ugly drug addicts

I think the answer is Money simple as, you can buy success, the west does it tooWestern world is full of industry plants who LARP as authentic actsAsians don't care I guess, so they go all inBut also, these Kpop bitches are way more professional than most wpop artists so they are able to be more consistent over time, they work really hard to give a good show
It"s funny how /mu/ insults kpop fans and is unable to see without any biasI don't like kpop, I think it's bland and uninspired, but kpop fans are not hikikomoris. My sister listen to kpop and she's a huge normalfg, all of her friends listen to kpop and they are functional members of society who party every weekend. Don't get me wrong they do have cringe ass weirdos, but most fans are normalfags, most fans are also taylor swift fans, ariana grande fansOn the other hand we are the fucking weirdos, most /mu/ are pretentious autists who insult normalfags here because this is their safe place

>>122589179The Korean government subsidizes it and promotes it. They needed to after a recession it's all pretty sad.The Korean manufacturing economy took a turn for the worse a while ago, pretty devastating for family firms that were in business forever. I think it has to do with China being able to outproduce for cheaper.They needed to create an export, out of desperation.It makes me think of those old timey depression era cartoons where the guy gets fired from his job so he pulls out a cane and a top hat and starts tap dancing to earn money as a street performer.That's what the Korean government is making its young people do by subsidizing entertainment exports.t.burgereater
