I know some of the kpop groups in this video but I don't know the other kpop groups especially the blurred one haha! That video is from tiktok

Looks so cool btw, he's always so alternative 😻

Hope for a 6th album as a group 😭🤍

I got into their music by coming across Yuri on X-Man! It had me wondering since I think Koyote or Roora was the most popular coed group (I could be wrong), but Cool also had some great success and album sales. About how popular were they?

I’ve been listening to full 1st gen albums lately during work. Most have 2-3 standout tracks and rest were kind of just there to fill space.

I gave Papaya’s 1st album a full listen today and I was pleasantly surprised at how well it was produced, and how the whole album was very much cohesive. It was more pleasant because I wasn’t particularly a fan of Papaya. I could tell the company really poured their money into the album!

If you guys have any 10/10 1st gen albums for me to listen to, pls recommend. Would be greatly appreciated

So I am going through my kpop collection and FINALLY organizing it... Again after it's been in my garage. But just wanted to share some photos with you all. I do have ses 1 trying to find it atm but ses2 I know I have a burn copy of it. If you want to see any of my h.o.t stuff, go to the subreddit of highfiveofteenagers. Enjoy~

I was making a playlist of underrated 2nd gen songs and thought to share it here! Listening to them truly feels special; back then, I didn't really look into full albums (I was only 12 lol) and I just listened to whatever the YouTube algorithm showed me, which was mostly title tracks. So whenever I stumbled on a b-side, it felt like brand new, super rare and special music haha

Old Korean, Japanese & Chinese songs, Real voices. Real emotion.

Not for everyone.
But if you feel it… you’ll stay.

Her first four albums are so good! I especially can’t stop listening to I 🖤 Natural and Magic to Go To My Star

If people don’t know, Before Chris joined S#arp in Late 1998, he was recruited by the same company but to debut as a duet with Eddie Kim. They may have known each other before their recruitment as Derrick Son who made a few tracks with them was their teacher back in the U.S. This album really shows out how Chris was made to rap as all the tracks rap part were made by him and Eddie Composed and wrote a few songs on the album too. Sadly because this was also during the massive flow of new artist they look to have not gain the same fame but are memorable to some people due to their lead single being made by a well known person but it also was said to have lacked into the style of that time as it was also their first time making a song in that style. There is live performances on Music Tank during April and it looks like they did gain recognition but probably not enough for the company to push another album or Eddie may have felt differences towards it, who knows?

Full names:
Christopher Kim (Chris) , Edward Kim (Eddie)
