A discussion I had with my classmates about the impact Shakespeare had on modern literature...
We can all gush about all the literary works that are being made today but no one can deny the fact that he revolutionized English literature by inventing almost 1700 words and setting the rules for the grammar y'all use today... among other achievements.
So in the same way 2nd gen and 1st gen ofc did shape the kpop we know today and 3rd gen along with 4th gen is helping popularizing it ww with their own touch so stop fighting about this and learn to appreciate every little contributions every group and generation adds to the industry...
PS: SHAKESPEARE SUNBAENIM PAVED THE WAY!!
