Reasons Why Kpop Sucks

Watch a bunch of Kpop fans descend on this list like a swarm of locusts.
The Top Ten
1 It's all commercialized

That's just so rude for me and for BTS.
You can say that because your not Korean.
My moms Korean, my dad British.
And I'm from England!
That's so offensive for me!
And who worked hard to make
K-pop would be so mad at this!
Like, who ever wrote why K-pop
sucks, sucks.

I do not want to hear about this any more! This is just so RUDE! Like at least you must have one song you like that is from Korea. Or something you like from Korea!

This is very true! People think they look amazing, but then I start talking about how I love My Chemical Romance's aesthetics, and nobody cares.

That does't make sence!
I mean, they arean't that bad?
They aren't that bad!
And that's just so offensive for BTS!
Who ever wrote this article is just so rude!
My dads british and my moms Korean!
And iv'e been born in England!
K-pop workers would be just carzy sad that
someone said that K-pop sucks!
And you know what who wrote this...
SUCKS!

2 Horrible fans

Majority of the KPOP Fans are very immatured.. Like, they sometime do things that can annoy normal people or people from another fandom. They think that its absolutely normal, unbeknownst to them how annoying they really are.

Stupid Behaviors. They will try destroy, argue, start a debate, tease, judge, etc. anyone who dares to degrade their fandom.. ;-;

I'm a fan, but some are insane. They will throw things at the artists, plant cameras in their houses, touch them inappropriately, STEAL THEIR URINE (I wish I was making that up), & will neglect one member while giving loads of attention to the others.

I don't remember which YouTuber did this, but he did an experiment by posting on Twitter that he didn't like BTS. He got so many dislikes and quite a few unfollows. Saying "I can't follow you because you don't like Kpop" would be like "I can't be your friend because you eat meat". Pointless and just rude.

The thing that bothers me is that you are NEVER allowed to say anything bad about this music genre. Cause if you do the fans will come at you and refuse to respect your opinion. (Not all fans, but a lot of them are like this)

3 If you hate it, you are automatically racist according to Kpop fans

Someone on the first place on this list said this:
"That's just so rude for me and for BTS.
You can say that because your not Korean.
My moms Korean, my dad British.
And I'm from England!
That's so offensive for me! "
Like, what the heck? We never said ANYTHING about you, or BTS. How is saying Kpop is commercialized racist or offensive? These are OPINIONS, people. You Kpop lovers act like 6 year olds if anyone says anything bad about BTS.

K-Pop fans are huge hypocrites (not all of them, but mostly fangirls). When someone says "I dislike K-Pop", the the fans get so angry and call them "racist", "stupid", "bad taste of music", blah blah blah, but K-Pop fans treat fans of other genres badly too. One time, I tried to share a Glitch Hop (FYI, Glitch Hop is a genre of electronic music that has a bit of a "glitchy" theme and sometimes are video game-themed) song with one of my classmates (who's a K-Pop and J-Pop fan), and she said "bruh". that's why I'd rather like NoCopyrightSounds music indtead of K-Pop, because K-Pop is cringy,and the fans are so annoying

People think that they don't sing good, it is true that they use auto tone. But even without the auto tone, their voice is beautiful because of how long they trained to be a kpop idol. People that hate kpop doesn't make them racist but when they say that they look the same, their eyes are closed, they are sooo pale make the fans offended. It does sound racist when you say that you hate kpop and describe their looks.

How is disliking music from another country racist? You are not hating on the people for their culture, you just don’t like the particular artist or band from that country because their music is bad.

4 It's anti-art

The process of making K-pop

1. The company employees dream up random songs that have no originality. The artists themselves have no part in making songs.
2. Insert terrible grammar in English.
3. Force the artists to dance, not to sing. (Don't forget to change the artists looks completely using plastic surgery and make up! )
4. Put the music behind N layers of autotune.
5. Put the crappiest cover with the artists alien looks inside.
6. Profit! (For the boss of the record label only.)

No creativity or originality is needed to become a Kpop singer.

I love how salty some of the overreactions to this list were.

This is an incredibly vague and opinionated reason.

5 Extreme use of auto tune

The new official Super Mario song, We Are Born to Play by Charli XCX is HEAVY on autotune, although that song is good in many other areas. It sounds like something made in 2013.

Only reason I'd with agree on this list. Music is good, but autotune ruins it. Why does it exist?

I haven’t heard K-pop singers use their real voice in songs because they sound like robots. BoA can sing without autotune though and had some songs with her real voice.

Auto tune is garbage

6 Stupid lyrics

It's gonna be really offensive to the Korean people who have worked hard to make that song. They thought about it over the years and presented it to the public and now people are saying that in sucks?! My parents are Korean and I was born in Singapore and now living in the Philippines but... Stupid lyrics?! What the heck!
I don't understand you people.

I think K-pop generally isn’t great since it’s kind of lazy. But I am going to be honest and not totally biased, there are plenty of K-pop songs actually have good messages even if they are not written by the artists singing them. Bulletproof is about the struggles of working hard, Happiness by Red Velvet is about true happiness rather than just fame and fortune(I used to listen to K-pop). And there are songs about self confidence, depressing songs, and positivity

You don't understand that language doesn't means it's stupid. Seriously how many kpop songs have you heard !?

7 Stupid group names

Bts - Bagtan Boys
BlackPink - Beauty isn't everything
Red Velvet - Cute and Sexy

Yeah study what the names mean idiots

I miss when BTS meant Behind the Scenes

BTS.
It is the name of the Bangkok commute

Girls generation what.

8 Groups, especially boy bands, are getting more and more generic

I find girls equally generic and the members looked like as if they are produced by a cloning machine. The boys tried too hard in looking badass and cool, while the girls have the same 33 layers of makeup for product placement.

See a little more variety in Girl groups, but not by much. Boys try way too hard to look sexy and badass to the point where I cringe. Girl group are usually either cute, badass or sexy (or maybe a mixture of the three), no one try’s anything different.

Boy bands have guys that always sing about girls and dress like girls and the girl bands try so hard to be cute. It’s getting generic.

9 K-pop artists cannot sing

They are singing in a GROUP and still they rely on Autotune to sing normally!

Hi I just wanted to say something. If you believe they can't sing, please look into Park Jimin. He is an incredibly talented singer. :)

On the surface level.

10 Terrible rapping

At least they don't use offensive words in rap unlike almost every Western rappers do

The Contenders
11 No talent from the performers

They can't even sing. I have enough confidence to make this statement: I can sing better

I respect your opinion, but not all artists are untalented. Look at Park Chae Young.

I really hate kpop! They got no talents

12 All the band members sound the same
13 English lyrics that make no sense

Yeah I know right! And some lyrics are like extremely dirty (my friend once forced me to listen)

Me every time I hear English lyrics in Kpop: Is it added 10 seconds before the recording started?

14 Stupid music videos

Personally, I am not a fan of Kpop. But hating on it is a waste of time and it doesn't do anything. If someone loves kpop let them! It is ok to like kpop just like it is ok to like any other genre. I will admit it gets annoying when every topic is about one thing. Not all fans are the same. Its not all black and white as it seems. I think the music videos can be happy and colourful.

Why does Kpop music video ALWAYS contain a group of girls dancing in front of a green screen? Every music video looks the same, which is absolutely anti-art. I demand VARIETY, thanks.

I got to strongly agree with this one. Almost every K-pop video has to have a colorful background and a group of people dancing. Why can’t there be something different? It gets boring to watch, I feel like I am watching the same thing. Can’t they be more original with their videos?

But not all stupid ass K-pop music videos. Some are stupidass, some aren't stupid

15 It’s not from North Korea

How is this a good reason?

16 Brainwashes teens

That's true. Some fans I encountered even say the pimp Seungri is Jesus Christ. what? Jesus won't do such wrong doings. This is the result of extreme fanaticism.

They have created a fantasy world that causes kids to badger their parents for needless plastic surgery.

Mostly for girls, got addicted and idolizing their "favorite" Korean singer/dancer whatsover.

What about the alphabet soup community. They are brainwashing kids.

17 Destroys the life of celebrities if they fail to hit it big and are disbanded

Korean pop trainees. SCPF D-Class.
These spot the difference games are getting hard

18 Dumb fan base names

Blackjacks - oh wait this casino game has a plural form?
Once - I started doing things for three times at least. I started doing things for three times at least. I started doing things for three times at least.
VIP - *destroys vip passes*
EXO-L - What does this even mean?
Shinee world - A result of extreme egoism.

And many, many more...

And you don't talk crap about Bronies and Mixers? And why do fanbase names matter so much

Serious?! Instead of a blackpink fan you are calling yourself Blink?! and instead of BTS fan you are calling yourself army

Sones is one of the worst fan base name I have ever heard

19 K-pop doesn't represent Korean culture. It represents Western culture.
20 Some idols are only liked for being attractive

The fans should praise the plastic surgeons instead of the idols if all they want is looks.

True, even if they got plastic surgery

21 It takes away popularity from better music in South Korea.

It takes away popularity from artists that actually write their own songs and don't have management groups or excessive autotune to create a song.

All of the underrated bands are disbanded by the record label

The great artists have to MIGRATE to show their talents! (Example: Dabin)

As a kpop fan, I agree to this. there are tons of artists who are very talented but underrated, not saying bts or bp is not talented but yall need to know that kpop is not just bts or blackpink r sum smh

22 Many artists are racist
23 It is for peasants

Wait so electronic music is for rich people? I am just a middlr class

24 Creates stereotypes

It makes other Asians hate themselves

25 It’s the same thing as American pop, just in a different language

This is the only reason for why kpop sucks. Kpop industry copies trending music style in US and shows no creativity in what it produces. Every country's popular songs have distinct music style except S.Korea's. Korea not representing their culture in their pop music is the sign that the country shows no respect to its own culture or that the country just copies the culture of others which is not admiring. Westernisation hit Korea badly. The artists changing their facial features like doing double eyelid surgeries shows that they don't value Korean race at all. They want facial features of westerners influencing every other koreans in the country. Soon, the country will become a boring place for their own people too. Kpop will be the main reason for it.
