APT starts a new revolution in KPop - the integration of KPop into Pop

  • ==

    Because it does not appreciate the conquest of KPop and continued to support a singer who would never really go anywhere outside of there

    An absolutely bizarre and petty reason to hold a grudge on an ethnic group of people.

  • 1.) The local scene of Korean composers and lyricists will still exist, it just won’t have as much mass appeal.


    2.) I wouldn’t count out the little guys, some are actually resourceful and creative. Disruption usually comes from within their ranks.


    3.) I don’t see it as making another singer-songwriter obsolete. If a broad swatch of people feel Rosé work, it creates an opportunity to be like a “gateway drug” of shining bright together for other Korean artists.

    IT will be much weaker, like those of other countries where Pop rules, a league of their own.


    The little guys will be as lucky as Dreamcatcher, catching a small niche and just making enough to survive


    When the KPop boom began those with other genres simply disappeared since there were no more demand on them. Same thing will happen with APT

  • If Samsung getting majority of revenues from outside SK, its markets massive outside SK, has not quit S.Korea - then Kpop which is nowhere near Samsung, and further its product culturally more dependent, than 'electronics' - has no way of quitting S.Korea.


    Sure major acts from Kpop may transition to just 'pop', Kpop agencies will invest and run non-korean acts producing non-korean content etc., yet as long as the Korean language is spoken, kpop which is now the dominant form of Kmusic is going nowhere.

    Actually all children of the owner of Samsung are US citizens so it will be a US company after the owner dies.


    That aside, KPop will break with Korea, whose regional pop will be as relevant as Brazillian soccer league or Dominican baseball league.

    No, it will still be a Korean company with American shareholders.


    When Kpop breaks with Korea, it will just be pop and what remains with Korea, will continue as Kpop.
