2010-2020: what were the worst/best years for kpop?


love

Recommended Posts

Worst probably 2014, many scandals and the music in general was boring.

Best 2015 and 2019 because it had the best debuts imo. But 2016-17 were pretty iconic too with the first two produce seasons and 2020 has been good music wise.

Best - 2015 by a long shot. 2016 - 2018 were good too.

Worst - 2013, 2020 (i thought 2019 was bad but this year made last year look amazing in comparison)

I liked 2014, some of my favourite songs came out that year and it's when I started getting into kpop, i know that a lot of tragedies and scandals happened tho

2014 had some great songs from among others Ga-In, Girl's Day and Dal Shabet. But it was also terrible with the Ladies' Code accident, and to a lesser extent the split of OG Kara.

2019 was also bad, with Hara's and Sulli's suicides. But the year that made me lose interest in KPOP was 2017, with Jonghyun's suicide being the last straw for a bad year for me personally due to Soyeon and Boram leaving T-ara, a year after 4minute's and KARA's disbandments.

2013 was good! Brown Eyed Girls album, T-ara releases, 9muses owning the year with 3 fantastic singles and one decent one, Hello Venus' great song WYSFT, etc.

2014 was the worst for me. I was in fanwars all year omg. Falling in love with Tiffany during TTS promos and Taemin’s excellent EP were my highlights. 

My best years were my first years, 2011 to 2013. 2013 might have been my peak. Most of my faves delivered their best work (imo) in 2013: VIXX, SHINee, f(x). IGAB was a really fun era too.

Probably 2013 for me; first year into the kpop crazy and my favs( 2pm) released their best album( GROWN is that album) and Shinee came through in 2013 too.  2015  was also great simply because WG dropped reboot.

Probably 2017 or 2016? I started to loose interest in kpop music around then.
