[kpopsunbaes]

Not going to speak for everyone on the team, but in my opinion, it's a complicated issue.

Part 1: Time & Location

Part of it is just different generations and people not knowing because they weren't around for it. Outside of a few classics they're vaguely familiar with, a lot of people just stick with music that's recent or big in their social circle. Some folk don't care about the story and just enjoy the music. What I do in the Sunbaes is very unusual and not something I do for every song I download/stream. I was raised listening to the Beach Boys and could tell you all the words to "Help Me, Rhonda", but I have no clue who the members are even though my parents do.

Add in that there are always fans of artists from a different country than them. They might not know the backstory of the artist or even the language they're speaking, but they still like the music. Even if they dive into learning about the artist/song, they probably won't know anything about the greater music industry of that country outside of that artist for a while -- if ever. But someone who lives in that country probably would know more -- I'm saying "probably" because I have a habit of being late to learning about recent hits in the US. I know there are a lot of people like me who miss even the most viral stuff.

Part 2: K-Pop and International Fans

That said, with K-Pop, ignorance of the past seems (to me) to be a more recent phenomenon with international fans. Obviously, time is a factor, but additionally, the discussions around it feel different to me than say 16 years ago.

I think some of the problem has to do with news and media focusing on scandals or tragedies of the time over anything else and that's what's available to English speakers.

For example, since Reply 1997 there's been an interest in 1st gen, but definitely a heightened focus on specific events and groups. The issue with it is that way too many international fans took that drama as a true history instead of as entertainment, and had no reason/interest in delving further.

Every few months sites like Allkpop and Koreaboo rerun articles that further cement this, and then content creators piggyback off of it. Usually, if H.O.T is brought up, it's for either one particular fight Club H.O.T had with DSF (Yellowkies) or the dating rumor with Baby V.O.X. Other 1st gen things that are usually discussed for shock value and are repeated an obnoxious amount of times: Lee Gai, Hwansung's death, Sungjae's death, K'Pop's dating rumor, DSF car burning, and S#ARP's disbandment.

They'll dedicate maybe three sentences to the person and then focus on the issue at hand while ignoring any additional information that would diminish the sensationalism of it. (Why explain Lee Gai's history in the music industry if your narrative is that she blindsided everyone?)

Part 3: Consequences of Not Knowing

While it doesn't seem like a big deal, the problem is that these tend to be geared to audiences who don't have the background or interest in events prior, and thus continues the spiral with each new platform and generation of incoming K-Pop fans.

The other problem is that many international fans assume K-Pop is a newer industry. I saw this with Rain, the Wonder Girls, "Gangnam Style", BTS, etc. New folk come in all the time and many assume that because they were just introduced to it, it must be true for everyone else. They'll learn over time. But some will assume that their favs are the best or did something first, and can't be reasoned with. Doesn't matter if you show them the LA Times article about Hyun Jinyoung, H.O.T winning an award from MTV, Se7en's Chil-Bong in 2003, Rain on the Colbert Report, FIN.K.L/Sechskies in North Korea, Circle/Non-Stop, etc. Whatever the issue is, they're not going to listen and will continue to tell others their idea of history. If someone knowledgeable isn't there to refute it, newer folk will likely think that person knows better and parrot it later on.

Part 4: How to Overcome Misinformation

So, what can be done about this lack of knowledge? Well, in my opinion, it depends on the issue. Generally, sending sources is my go-to because then they can see it for themselves. If someone is spreading the dating rumor about K'Pop, I tell them it's fake and send them a link to our episode that explains the group and breaks down how the rumor started.

The reason why we link our script for every episode is that's where we list our sources, so anyone can check where we got our info from. (That and because we want to make it easier for those who may be hard of hearing or need a visual to process information. We also have a lot of international listeners, so reading the script could be helpful to those who aren't fluent in English or don't have English as their first language. Lots of reasons and it's easy to accommodate since we're already writing everything down, so why not?)

The reason why we never recommend Season 1 is that we got a LOT of stuff wrong. Part of it was the time crunch to release two episodes every month. We switched to doing 6-month seasons so that we have more time to dive in and research better, and that's paid off. The other part of it was that we mainly relied on English sources. I got so burned by Wikipedia, Kpoprofiles, Allkpop, etc when doing research in Season 2, that I completely swore them off for deep dives. If you look at our Master Doc we put together for our December wrap up episodes, you'll sometimes see Allkpop, Koreaboo, etc as sources because they're usually accurate when talking about enlistment dates or new music releases. However, I don't use them when discussing events of the past because I find Korean articles on the same topic tend to have more information that's key for what I need to research. We've used Naver Music (Vibe) since Kpop of the Day, but that was mainly for discography listings that I prefer Melon and Bugs for now. From Season 3 on, I started using Namuwiki/Melon to assist with outlining to get a gist of the topic, then fill it in with Naver News, YouTube videos, etc. So even I find I have to constantly update old work with corrections. We're also slowly re-editing Season 1 for that reason. But not everyone has the time or interest in doing that for every comment or piece of content they've made.

In recent years, there's been a movement in the 1st gen fan community to acquire, restore, and preserve information. Some folk purchase and scan magazine articles from the 90s. Others translate videos and song lyrics. My contribution to this is that I find links to all those sources and put them in one place. I make a document and group them by year and topic to make it easier for others to find. At times, I'll do translations, but I pretty much stick with giving descriptions of what the source is about because I'm not even close to being fluent in Korean. My goal is to cut down on how much time others spend on clutter that comes up in search results.

It's not just been fans doing this either. More and more K-Pop artists have been doing this themselves. In my opinion, Hyun Jinyoung is the best person doing this because he's done a YouTube series explaining his history and he even wrote a book. He goes into detail about his time at SM, the people he was around, etc. This makes him a goldmine of info for those wanting to know about early K-Pop and SM history because he was at the heart of it. But as he still seems to be surprised that he has international fans, I don't think anything relating to him will have English subtitles in the near future.

TLDR

Yeah, it's annoying to see wrong info being spread but most people learn better over time. In my opinion, the best way to change things is to break info down for those who don't know Korean or how to do actual K-Pop research. By lowering the garden walls, it helps those who are open to learning about crucial points in K-Pop's history. There will always be those who either have no interest in it or intentionally want to spread misinformation, but doing the work, it can help those who do want to know the facts.

샵 모음 - S#arp Music Playlist

If any K-pop fans want to try something new and a bit different from newer K-pop songs, please try S#arp.

Trust me when I say they are a lot of fun to listen to (even when you may not know or know the story/ background of S#arp), their music in just one album is like a roler coaster tome it is at least (OMG trying to explaine why I like this group is just 😆😁)

When you love music of a K-pop group, that is no longer active, and not many people know/ like but also want them to become more well known and their music to become popular again. (It's like keeping a secret or keeping something to one's self so no one else can have but at the same time want other people to know and love.)

S#arp is one of my first favourite coed K-pop groups that debuted in the late 90s (ahh, when K-pop was quirky and different, the early years of K-pop (in my opinion, of course, some may agree) and one of many favourite 1st gen kpop groups.

It's probably a minor frustration of mine and or any other lover of old K-pop songs like me, is that you can't find full Albums or even a single song of sed K-pop groups, duoes, soloists and bands on Youtube both in English and Korean (mostly 80s and 90s that I'm talking about).

Even though Youtube made a playlist of S#arps songs, almost all their Albums (4 albums out of 6 and 1 compilation Album) are on there, which is why there is another playlists of S#arp's music that has 2 more of the Albums.

I've watched this video 3 times, and it's one of the reasons I got interested in 90s K-pop in the first place. I wish more people that like K-pop know about the history/ foundations of K-pop (the 90s is when K-pop was pretty much born by Seotaji and Boys).

@anemoiawithatouchofobsession and @kpopsunbaes, do you also find this a bit annoying, or is it just me.

07:22 How we met our Serin!

25:04 Wrap-up

[kpopsunbaes]

I'm seeing K'Pop coming up with both the dating rumor and the term "K'Population" making the rounds again. For those who are unaware, both are inaccurate.

A few years back, Serin and I were the team that researched the group and investigated where the rumor/name came from. The episode I've linked explains it and provides sources, but here's the TLDR on these two matters.

K'Pop

K'Pop wasn't an abbreviation for K'Population. They debuted as K'Pop and went by that name until disbandment.

As stated during the group's Sugarman2 appearance, the name "K’Pop" was created by Joo Younghoon who produced the group. While on a business trip in Japan, he was inspired by the term “J-Pop” and came up with “K-Pop” as the Korean counterpart to the J-Pop wave. This was the first example of the term being officially used in Korean music, as previously the term for the genre we know today as K-Pop was referred to as Hallyu (한류) and/or Gayo (가요). This is why the music show Inkigayo is named as such, as the name literally means popular music.

Note: K'Pop is styled as such in English, but during promotions, they were also sometimes referred to as "K-Pop". Due to the genre using a hyphen, when referring to the group, an apostrophe is preferred to reduce confusion.

The first reference to K'Population that I found came from the long-defunct website http://kpophwaiting.net. It was an English fansite in the 2000s for the group, as K'Pop had international fans. I found Japanese fansites from 2002, and references to fans in the US.

On the front page of the kpophwaiting site was a notice that read the following: “K-Population is here for those K-Pop fans who do not speak Korean and may have a hard time finding things on the band.” From this, we see that "K-Population" wasn't used as the group's name at all, it was for a fansite.

Sidenote, in case you're wondering what K'Pop's fans were called, it was K’Popcorn (케이팝콘), which also went by the nickname Popcorn (팝콘).

I have no idea how K'Population got misconstrued as being the group's name on various English wikis years later. I assume it was due to general misinformation that was parroted over the years.

The Dating Rumor

From what I could gather, the original Korean and international K’Pop fans didn’t seem to be the source of the dating rumors.

The first mention of it I could find was from 2007, after the group had gone inactive (and technically disbanded) a few years prior in 2005. On January 22nd, someone made a Daum Cafe post saying they heard a rumor from their new friend that Woohyun and Youngwon had dated and broken up pre-debut. However, the poster themselves doubted it and seemed to want to share it because they thought it was funny. The commenters from that time also didn't seem to take it seriously either.

The fight between the two members from 2003 was brought up during this. The context for it being brought up was that the poster was musing about the idea of them fighting and they vaguely remembered Woohyun had bandages on his hands from an actual fight with Youngwon. They didn't claim the dating rumor and the fight were connected events.

For those of you who are unaware of the circumstances of that incident, here's a brief explanation. The group's coordinator was leaving, so the company had a farewell party for them. Prior to that, Youngwon's drinking habit of being rowdy was known to the group. He got drunk during the party, and around 3am Woohyun was fed up with Youngwon picking fights with him. While he was waiting for his ride, Youngwon came up behind him and punched him a few times before staff separated them. Woohyun had an injury to his face and his wrist, as he fell during the incident. (S) After multiple insincere apologies, Youngwon finally got it that he hurt his friend, so he publicly apologized to Woohyun for his actions and they both moved on. There were no further incidents publicly between them, and the group went on to release another album. Despite what people have spread around, the fight wasn't even close to being the reason why K'Pop disbanded -- it also didn't cause long-lasting discord between the members either, as we know from their later reunion.

However, it appears that didn't matter to the next person who spread this rumor. Also in 2007, a reporter wrote an article that acted as if the January post was a true summary of events. Although the article itself is lost to time, a fan's reaction to it was preserved. The fan was annoyed that the fight was brought up to drag the members. They also claimed that due to the reporter's reputation, they doubted the dating rumor was true. The fan's speculation about the article being written to bash the members wasn't unwarranted. For context, around that time, an article came out that discussed the morals of idols who trained/debuted while underage. Youngwon was mentioned in that article, as that reporter brought up the fight with Woohyun in it.

In 2011, the dating rumor article was brought up in conversation among netizens. They remembered the article, but forgot that they didn't take it seriously. So, the story got spread around again as if it was fact. This is why retractions are so important.

After K'Pop's appearance on SugarMan2, the dating rumor was spread to international fans through articles on sites like Koreaboo and Allkpop. To this day, you'll see people associating K'Pop with this rumor after a giant game of telephone.

Final Notes

When it comes to K'Pop, people know them more for two inaccurate pieces of info than anything else they actually did. If you read this whole post and are interested in knowing what the group actually did, I recommend listening to the podcast audio included at the top of this post. I hope I explained this well enough for people to get why 1st Gen fans have been cracking down on those who repost about K'Population and the dating rumor.

Please be cautious when looking at English language wikis for 1st Gen groups in general, as they tend to include wrong info (and generally don't list sources). For example, Baby V.O.X's entry on Kprofiles includes the wrong picture of the original leader (it shows a different member from an MV a few years after her departure) and doesn't list that she was the leader. Additionally, H.O.T's Wikipedia page is a DISASTER. So, be cautious, folks.

Big Ocean's Debut

On April 20th, the boy group Big Ocean debuted on Korea's Day of People with Disabilities. This group interests me because all three members have hearing difficulties. To my knowledge, this is the first time in K-Pop history that an entire group was intentionally recruited and debuted with hearing challenges.

"Hope"

Their debut song is a remake of H.O.T's "Hope". I've talked about this song at length in the past, but since that post, I've come to learn more context around it. For example, when I made that post, I wasn't aware that prior to its release, H.O.T did a tour in the US and donated the proceeds to help Korea during the IMF Crisis.

Kangta made "Hope" to comfort people who were going through a rough time regardless of what the exact situation was. Since its release, it's been covered countless times. It's also standard for it to be the final song at SMTown concerts; most notably during the New Year's Eve concerts during Covid as a final message to the audience that whatever your life is like, never give up hope that things will get better.

H.O.T & Disabilities

If you're only familiar with H.O.T through "Candy" or Reply 1997, you probably aren't aware of the overall theme of their discography. Every title track from their 5 albums commented on a social issue.

1st Album (We Hate All Kinds of Violence): Warrior's Descendants - Condemned bullying and bystanders who observe but don't interfere.

2nd Album (Wolf and Sheep): Wolf and Sheep - Ranted about a hospital massacre by North Koreans at the start of the Korean War.

3rd Album (Resurrection): Line Up - Criticized how rigid Korea can be.

4th Album (I-YAH): I-YAH - Demanded accountability from all those whose actions led to 23 deaths in the Sealand Training Center Fire, and expressed the nation's grief.

5th Album (Outside Castle): Outside Castle - Criticized people who discriminate against those with disabilities.

It's with Outside Castle in particular that we see the group's stance. It was the first title track produced by the members. One version of the album's cover art has Braille on it. The choreography for "Outside Castle" includes sign language at the end that reinforces the message that people with disabilities should be loved just the same as people without disabilities. The story version of the music video has a storyline about an athlete no longer able to run after an accident, but after spending time recovering, he's able to race again.

While Heejun took the helm for Outside Castle, it wasn't the only time an H.O.T member was involved with a song dealing with disabilities. The latest example of this was seen last year, when on April 22nd, "When I Close My Eyes" was released by Kangta and Lee Areum (of the Hanbit Arts Troupe, which is a performance group for the visually impaired).

Big Ocean & Glow

This trio is comprised of members Ji-Seok (지석), Chan-Yeon (찬연), and Hyun-Jin (현진). They are under Parastar Entertainment, which currently has Cha Haley as CEO.

Together, they're paving the way to show how idols with hearing impairments can be successful. In this JooAng Daily article, two accommodations, in particular, were mentioned for the members, "A large screen with a visual metronome kept the members in sync with the music, and their wristwatches also vibrated on each beat." They trained for about a year and a half. None of the members intended on being idols before they found out about the Big Ocean project, yet they gave it a chance and made it to debut.

"Glow" is their debut single. While H.O.T's song was known by its Korean name "Light (빛)" and English name "Hope", "Glow" is also a correct translation for 빛. This is the first time SM has allowed a remake of the song (outside of SMTown) and they were on board for this. Their debut performance was on MBC's Show! MusicCore, and the choreography included Korean, American, and International sign language -- which made it even more inclusive.

Wrap Up

Big Ocean is a group to keep tabs on. The way Parastar Entertainment prepared for their debut could potentially be a blueprint for future groups with hearing impairments.

As an H.O.T fan, I'm fond of this remake because it understands the point of the original and was executed with sincerity. Additionally, I hope they do a remake of "Outside Castle" later in their career. Just like Suju was right for "Haengbok" and NCT Dream was right for "Candy", I believe Big Ocean was the perfect group to remake "Hope".

Hopefully, this group will have many years together and open the door for idols with other disabilities to debut.

[kpopsunbaes]

In recent years, there's been a discussion about how songs have been getting shorter. Interestingly, I found an article from 2010 that had this same discussion and listed different song times over a few years. Neat!

This article is in Korean, but it's organized by year, so hopefully that helps.
