Things you can't stand in kpop songs.

the only thing that has ever made me mad in a kpop song is in cravitys stay, cute song, i love her dearly

but theres the line

"you are everything i need, cuz you're everything i need"

like deadass

rhyming need w/ need
when "cuz you're everything to me" is right there and so precious. cheesy but precious WHY JUST HAVE THE SAME SENTENCE AS YOUR "BECAUSE" WHY!!!!

Too much rapping, don't like any sort of rapping either K pop or maintstream.

Songs that go longer than the typical 3 minute pop song.

Remember when everybody was screaming “cultural appropriation!” at every little real or imagined violation of the woke norms of the hour, but pretended not to notice big Korean corporations forcing little girl idols to dress and act like Black American gangsters to sell music?

Yeah - K-Rap can’t disappear soon enough.

Songs with police sirens or any sound thats similar in it...I hate it...I hate driving and suddenly think I'm being pulled over....

Excessively bad English grammar/diction/syntax.

Terribad song titles, mixing up English or using random symbols and punctuations, just STOP IT already omg.

That excessively loud trap beat, i get it, you know how to press the high hat key on your music softwares but can you please not use it for EVERY DAMN SONG and if you do use it, can you please TONE THAT SHIT DOWN and make it blend with the background instrumentals instead of blaring it at 1000decibels OMG.

Too much autotune/overprocessing.

Quote from MissBehave

Omg i hate terrible syntax. I also can't stand when singers mispronounce English words on purpose to force the lyric to work. Looking at you got7 with your ser-en-na-day. Still love you though!

Excessive vocal processing is a cancer in kpop

It's 2023 ffs, not 1993, there's no excuse anymore to not do 10x better with English. I can understand small nugu labels run by like 6 people in some rando basement but no song from a big 5 label should ever be released with blatant English errors anymore.

Like imagine if Taylor Swift came out with Spanish lyrics in her next song or even Japanese or Korean and then completely butchered them, she would be shaded like crazy on social media, some would even call her racist by not putting in the work to learn the language properly and just trying to exploit it, blah blah blah.

But YYJ and LSM think it's ok to release this trash in 2022? The most egregious part about all this is that this song is literally Aespa's second best song, it really suits them, but how can we take it seriously when these jokers at SM wont even take the time to fix the crap lyrics from 1983 or whenever BOA or SESD or whoever released this song first . Poor Giselle, imagine being English proficient like her and being asked to record these terribad lyrics OMG, how could she even keep a straight face in the studio?

When they sing like they're shouting. JYP ggs do a lot of this shit, I HATE IT

do you wanna upside down is iconic af. i love goofy eng lyrics

Full english raps. The lyrics are always atrocious, the flows are WHACK, and the deliveries are mediocre... just let the rapper sing at that point, there's no need for a rap THAT cringey

Ultra sappy ballads that close out the albums. I almost always skip them.

Breathy singing marketed as “stylish”

Falsetto when it’s not done properly.

Any sound of loud unnecessary instrumentals (I get easily startled 😭)

Baritone voices imo they don’t suit group settings. Stick to solos.

when the lyrics are in English and I can understand the sub par lyrics 😭

Nah, I dead set pulled into a side lane one time thinking the sirens in a song were an emergency vehicle that I had to let pass (law in my country)

Forcing a rap into a song, even if it doesn't fit, because the group has a "rap line"

Strobing/flashing lights in some MV's. I don't get seizures, but they hurt my eyes sometimes.

That really doofy gorilla arms dance in the OMG chorus

-Autotune

-Falsetto

-Empty choruses

-Unnecessary rap part that kills the flow of the song

-Singing in an unnecessarily high pitch
