What is the significance of Kpop?
Due to the rapid growth of Kpop, it was able to bring South Korea, once a poor country, out of poverty in a matter of a couple of years. This is the reason as to why Kpop became a primary source for their economy.
Secondly; I just adore the caring, cute, dorky, and hilarious members of these kpop groups :3
conclusion/thoughts?
Two things; Firstly, Kpop has affected many teens all around the world. Kpop is also still growing, meaning t has more in store for us who show interest in this. For international fans, its obviously difficult for us to see the idols we love or understand them since they're Korean, but we all still love them. Even if we don't understand what they sing, we can hear the emotion in the way they sing. It could express the happiness, love, and even devastation. This is the beauty that I find in kpop.
