What's your opinion on the fact that Japanese and Korean music sound more and more alike?

both rip off western pop

makes me miss old japanese music that was so fricking unique

it's a bit sad... was never that big of a fan of Jpop, but i always liked how unique it was and how they seemed to do their own thing regardless if the rest of the world thinks its weird

just when old japanese music is blowing up in the west, they dont want their own style anymore

tragic

Well more like Korean music sounds like some Japanese music. While both places borrow heavily from each other and western, latin and other places it seems Japan just kind of goes off the wall sometimes.

Don't think I've ever heard of a Korean singers like Ado

or concepts like

or fusion of opera and metal like

It's just a few groups following western/korean trends. There are still very much the sound of J-Pop from the earlier decades still around.

I’m confused. Are you just comparing one genre with each other or the whole music scene?

Imo nope
