K-pop vs j-pop

May 30, 2010 17:14

Wow... after reading this I realise that k-pop is more and more into the Japanese show business.

I don't know... the fact that I don't like k-pop doesn't mean that I have something against it. I just want the things I love unaffected - in this way at least. Am I that scared to lose the things I love?... *sigh* ( Read more... )

I think J-pop is unique... Not always awesome songs but I'd rather have the boring j-pop songs than k-pop...

I thinh is just a phase.
I HOPE it's only just a phase.Or even if it isn't I hope jpop will remain unaffected by this.I am sorry I am biased...but if I want to listen to kpop I will listen to kpop.I don't think mixing everything would do anybody any good

I hope you're right!

well, it'll probably affect Japanese music the same way American music did.
But well, as much as I love my K-pop I'm sometimes fed up to see them all over my J-pop (I like my fandoms being separating, plus J-pop seems so drama-free face to K-pop)..

*sigh* If I wanted American music I'd choose American artists... More dramas for k-pop? wow!

Ok I really can't comment in this objectively since I'm going through my kpop phase & Big Bang are my fav k-pop group but you know that Japan's where the money's at, don't you? And if the Japanese don't mind kpop groups crossing over (with japanese lyrics nonetheless) why should we mind? It's not like you'll buy them anyway, right? ;p

marilena_r June 4 2010, 06:00:14 UTC

I just hope that they won't affect the groups I like one way or another... At least KT seem faithful to their old style after some experimentation... I should not be scared :)

Actually this is sth you should never be concerned about. Kpop groups who go to Japan are the ones who change their sound. They don't affect the existing groups! ^^
