Why KPOP Music is More Cool Than You Think

KPOP Music really is a genre of music that not a lot of people may know about. Here is what my personal opinion is when it comes to Korean Pop Music.

Why KPOP Music is More Cool Than You Think
KPOP Artists

As a person, I feel like it is a fundamental right for us to discover new things each day. I feel like the more we discover, the more we learn about the world around us and who knows? Maybe when we discover something new, it could become something that we have a strong interest in that we want to share with the world.

Recently, I have discovered that I am beginning to like KPOP music and I just love listening to it and dancing to it. For those who don't know, KPOP is pretty much an acronym that stands for Korean Pop music. There are many groups out there to be discovered and it's really amazing to see what type of music people in another country tend to listen to.

Let me just say that if you think that this type of music will be weird and crazy, I think that you don't know unless you give it a listen. When I first heard KPOP, I thought that it was really catching and upbeat and it really was something that I could enjoy listening to. The music is really upbeat, even though I did not know what some of the lyrics because of course, they were in Korean.

However, despite the fact that the songs were mostly in Korean, there were a few words in the songs that were in English. With the combination of the lyrics, you can get a sense of what the groups are saying in their songs. Then again, there is the brilliant invention of having English subtitles for the videos that you are watching for the songs that you are listening to.

The dances that the artists put together for these songs are really cool as well; not just because you are watching them do the dance, but maybe you'll have an interest in learning the dances as well. I know that I have been listening to a good number of KPOP songs over the past few days and I have learned a good number of the dances that go along with some of these songs.

What's interesting to me is to see how my friends react to some of the KPOP songs that I have been listening to. The reaction that I usually get from them is either they also find the song catchy or they just give me weird looks. I just love to share what I just started having a particular interest in and if they give me weird looks, then that means that they're not really into it as much as me.

People have their particular interests that their friends may or may not find to be as interesting as the particular person finds it to be. With my new love for KPOP, I just love listening to it whenever I get the chance, finding new songs that are really cool as showing my friends the types of KPOP songs I've been listening to recently. I feel like KPOP is underestimated by those that haven't listened to it, so if you do, get the chance to listen to some KPOP music because it really is some cool music, in my opinion.

When you were little, your parents probably told you television makes your brain rot so you wouldn't watch it for twelve straight hours. However, I feel we can learn some pretty valuable stuff from television shows. "The Office," while a comedy, has some pretty teachable moments thrown in there. You may not know how to react in a situation where a co-worker does something crazy (like put your office supplies in jello) but thanks to "The Office," now you'll have an idea how to behave ifsomething like that should happen.

Here are just a few of the things that religious Office watchers can expect to learn.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading

Books were always about understanding for me, about learning the way someone else sees, about connection.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading

I keep making this joke whenever the idea of books is brought up: "God, I wish I knew how to read." It runs parallel to another stupid phrase, as I watch my friends struggle through their calculus classes late at night in our floor lounge: "I hope this is the year that I learn to count." They're both truly idiotic expressions, but, when I consider the former, I sometimes wonder if there's some truth to it.
