Gee gee gee gee... I know, I'm heading for the grave. 2009 wasn't that long ago..
Same. My cousin was into Starcraft during the time, and he showed me a kpop performance. I was hooked
For me, it was Blackpink. It was when covid hit, and I was just bored and trying to find new hobbies. I listened to D4, thought it was fun, and decided to actively participate in the comeback for HYLT. I LOVED that song, and I started looking up the users, watching their variety, etc. After that, the rest was history. I ultimately stan Dreamcatcher now, but I wouldn’t have known about them without Blackpink.
Black pink was mine too with a very similar story. Mamamoo is probably my top group now and is great for introducing others to kpop.
I only use Mamamoo if the person is into jazz. Their early stuff was very jazzy, so I put them into that box. I do like some of their more recent releases though.
It was either Mirotic or Sunset Glow, probably. Big Bang definitely kept me in kpop for a long time.
