Why Do Some Kpop Fans Hate EDM?

Because not every genre is going to appeal to every person. And just from my personal observations, I've found kpop fans are more tolerant of EDM than non-pop fans.

Different taste of music. Some people do not like ballads because those are boring and some people not like edm because those are noisy. Some people prefer chill songs, some people prefer hype songs. Some people prefer instruments, some people singing.

EDM during the early 2010's was literally the last time local music was relevant. Shit was FUN, no one can tell me songs from Pitbull and Swedish House Mafia sucked, they were so damn good.

And Kpop is dance music, EDM literally has dance in the title ffs. If you want boring high hats and synth percussion or the same musty RnB riffs we've all heard a billion times, stick to local music or K RnB or Khip hop. Leave Kpop for people that wanna listen to dance music.

Maybe since it’s overdone. Time to move on.

Why SHOULD they? I have no real strong feelings either way but there’s no reason why they should or shouldn’t. K pop fandom (as with any fandom) is made up of people of totally differing tastes. Some of them will vibe with it, some of them won’t - just as some of them will vibe with country music, or death metal, or I dunno, Gregorian chants or anything else you could think of.

different strokes for different folks

Because the music is BAD

Ballads usually suck for me, I like very few.

I feel like it's trendy to hate EDM for some reason I don't know. Or they think it's noisy.

But I think kpop does EDM really well and I love it
