Isn’t the quirky, cute, fun side of K-pop what sets it apart from other genres?

[Haruwu]

so why are these concepts so looked down upon now?

 

discuss!

I don't think quirky is looked down upon, no?

RV is known for quirky and their red tracks/concepts are popular 

[Jcey]

Everyone wants to be cool

[baebaeroseanne]

well these concepts are done by females mostly. So men and women hate that it creates a weak image for women. idk if i got my point across without being messy.

looked down upon by who?

people argue cute = quirky so I used the word quirky

[Róisín Dubh]

some of the most popular groups use these concepts, so I think the number of people who approve these concepts outweighs the ones who look down upon them

[UMJI MOODS]

I love the fun. Wish more would have fun like back in the day.

My you need to explain this in the op.

We still have quirky concepts sometimes.. but not like they used to be. 

I want that Orange Caramel type quirky back, I want all matching outfits back just in different colors, I want that. That's what made me fall in love with kpop years ago.

Of course I love the concepts now but it's like they're all afraid to try to be crazy again. For me, I really loved that.

[pururin]

not for me

nah you make sense

it’s just a mere concept for entertainment though

 

I get people have preferences tho but some like to take their anger out on these concepts even though they’re just fun lol

Cute isn't the same as quirky. 

 

Quirky might have some cute elements in it, but it's a more weird, out of the norm, etc. kind of thing.

 

Gee, Oh!, TT, Knock Knock, Tell Me, etc. are all just cute songs.

 

Dumb Dumb, Rookie, Signal, Bar Bar Bar, Boom Boom, etc. are more quirky.
