12 Reasons Why K-Pop Fans Are Obsessed With K-Pop
KMusic

K-Pop has been a growing topic of conversation for the past few years. When Psy broke onto the American music scene with his hit "Gangnam Style," all anyone could do was play the song and dance. Now, four years later, K-Pop has ceased to stop growing in popularity. Here are 12 reasons why everyone (including myself) is obsessed with K-Pop.

1. The Singers Are Talented

It is undeniable how talented these idols are. They train for years, and then debut with mind-blowing skills, gaining millions of views in just a matter of hours. The video above is of the JYP Entertainment group "Twice." They debuted in late 2015 gaining 20-million views on this video in two months of debut. One member in this group trained for ten years.

2. Fan Base Nicknames


KPop groups have adorably fun names for their fans. For example, Big Bang calls their fans "V.I.Ps,", Seventeen calls their fans "Carat," and BTS calls their fans "ARMY." No matter what group you are a fan of, you'll always have a cool name to call yourself.

3. The Choreography Is Amazing And Undeniable

They even post dance practice and performance videos for fans, showing off their skills.

4. The Fancams

They are a fan's best friend. Who needs to watch the video of all of the members, when a lovely person filmed only your bias?

5. The Music Videos Are Oscar-worthy

From the amazing visual effects to the amazing story lines, the videos are always attention grabbing.

6. Let's Not Forget The Airport Fashion

Idols manage to look flawless even when they depart for a long flight.

7. K-Pop Idols Say The Darnedest Things



8. They're Funny


They have an amazing habit of doing parodies and funny skits on SNL.

9. Celebrities Like Them, Too


Here's Chloë Grace Moretz with girl group, Mamamoo.

Labelmates Psy and G-Dragon with Justin Bieber

10. Collaborations


They even cross over to do amazing collaborations with Western artists.

11. Girl Groups Can Be Whatever They Want


Cute or fierce as fire.

12. When You See Them, Your World Stops


Last but not least, when your favorite groups come together on one stage, the world stops for that moment.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
