Athena 21,718 Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 Domestic: The over-saturation of the industry. Many people don't even know 90% of the new nugu groups that were made this year, and this includes international fans as well. The public doesn't really like idols, they think they represent South Korea badly. International: Songs are sung in Korean. Many groups have a lot of members. Ignorance and racism of the rest of the world. No creative control (acts like robots). No diversity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CALICO CAT 8,999 Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 it's popular in asia and on the internet. I think it's fine as it is. what's holding it back is the fact that it's not sung in english. People are close minded like that and it's even worse in countries like mine where english isn't widely spoken and people still listen to american songs without understanding shit but people still find me weird for listening to songs sung in korean. For real. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lordKEN 1,608 Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 It's too repetitive. It needs more variety. And yes, there's been more variety in kpop lately, but the they're not getting much support. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
