K-POP concerts in different parts of the country: '2019 K Culture Festival'. K-POP concerts in different parts of the country: ‘2019 K Culture Festival’ RU-ARMY AND Cinemas |
2018 is living its last days. - The impostor expert adjusts his red cap. - It was a good, bad, funny, sad, normal year, basically like all the previous ones... Absolute truth. Whether you like it or not, let's turn on the nostalgia. *Ariran melody plays* KBEE 2018 GlobalAn exhibition of Korean goods was held in Moscow, at which K-pop stars NCT 127 and INFINITE performed. At the press conference, the guys demonstrated their knowledge of the Russian language, which gave fans confidence in mutual love. And what could be more beautiful than this? Russian fans are finally convinced that for their idols our country is not just a large wooded spot on the map, but a place where it is also worth coming. Rufandom exists, it can be seen, it is here!NCT 127 and INFINITE were not the first to open a window to Russia, but such a large-scale event with a real autograph session and an unrealistic battle for the opportunity to get there by registering on the website will be remembered for a long time. We hope that the friendship between Russia and Korea will be so strong that your favorite K-pop stars will come to us more and more often.
RU-ARMY AND CinemasYou never know which ticket you will have to fight for today - motto k-pop fan. It’s possible to buy a ticket to a BTS concert, the stars just have to line up like an ARMY bomb, the cancer on the mountain has to whistle like in DNA, and Santa Claus has to fine all the bad kids over the past 20 years. Quite easy, isn't it? In case all the crayfish in the city have run out, the stars have disappeared behind the clouds, and Santa Claus does not exist - SPECIAL OFFER FOR RUSSIAN FANDOM. Bangtan concert in cinema.
The film “BTS World Tour LOVE YOURSELF in Seoul” will be shown in our cinemas on January 26th. Tickets sell out in seconds. It’s scary to imagine what will happen on one single day of the show, how many armies will flood the city, how many fans will meet and how similar the atmosphere in the cinema will be to the one that prevails at the guys’ live concerts. All this thanks to CoolConnections - you need to know the names of the real heroes. Joy of SwansThe exhibition and film are, of course, wonderful. But we forgot about BAIKAL - the idols who held a special promotion in Russia and are even named after a great lake.Swan fans have been content all year with idols performing on shows with the hiccup track Hiccup and social media. Whole year The group never had a video - AND HERE IT HAPPENED! BEAUTIFUL was born. Rhythmic, romantic, “pink” and cute work, which received outrageously few views. If you still didn’t know these famous guests of Irkutsk, it’s time to fix that.
EXO and S.M. Entertainment2018 has been quite a tough year for EXO-Ls. They waited until November for a comeback, but when it happened, Eri were unable to fully enjoy it due to insufficient promotion. The news that Lay took part in at least a Chinese video was followed by another: the release of a limited version of the album, supplemented with photographs and a card of Lay. The repack was released almost as quickly as the limited edition. Fans, who have already unsubscribed from the agency in all networks where possible, are outraged that in offline S.M. stores. It's easier to buy merchandise with artists from other agencies than with EXO. Passions are running high.But there is also a positive thing - an episode of Knowing Brothers with the guys has already been released, their personal show is being prepared, at meetings with fans the guys assure that they will see each other more often in the new year, and Baekhyun has generally promised to release a solo album. Perhaps the ice has finally broken, and in 2019 it will be possible to forget about the ability to wait and endure for a while. HyunA and E'DawnThe couple's story was influenced by their agency, Cube Entertainment. Only the lazy don't know what happened after the idols announced their relationship: many fans became furious and began to boycott fan meetings with the artists as part of their comeback with Retro Future, which is why the promotion had to be suspended. The agency tried to deny the fact of the relationship, but the artists did not want to lie to the fans. Cube Entertainment terminated their contract as they lost confidence in the couple. Now Triple H is gone. Famous song Shine PENTAGON doesn't sound the same without E'Dawn.
But this is not the time to be sad! The couple, whose relationship is simply a delight for shippers, looks happy - the artists participate in photo shoots, travel together and are preparing to create new music. Their true fans, who are ready to support them in any difficulties, look with emotion at the photographs of them together and wait for the results of their now free creativity. Perhaps what happened will give many a reason to think about why we suddenly decided that we could interfere in someone else’s personal life? Zico and Block BThe Block B group will continue to operate with 6 people. Zico did not renew his contract, deciding to leave the agency and become a solo artist. It looks like fans are in for a tough time because on top of that, Jaehyo also left the group. True, temporarily - on December 20, he left to serve in the army. We wish good luck to both and look forward to great releases.WANNA ONEIt was Last year for the group. In January 2019, they will appear at awards shows and will hold a farewell concert for Therefore.
What will happen next is unknown. There are no official statements. Fans can only guess about the promotion of the members separately from each other. That is why 2018 is the year of farewell to Wanna One, and 2019 is the year of hope, faith and devotion. Will you keep an eye on the guys? Let's stop the sad memories here. Let us remember the good and only the good. BLACKPINKYear of the first mini-album. The year of the video that broke viewing records and earned a diamond YouTube button. The year in which the collaboration with Dua Lipa happened. This is what a fruitful 2018 means according to BLACKPINK.Blinky proudly holds her lightstick hammers at the ready. With them they are ready to protect their idols from haters, which they cannot do without with such popularity. The girls are officially preparing to promote in America, where there is good ground for this. Jennie's solo debut won the hearts of many listeners and viewers, and when the rest of the group's members release solo albums, we will see BLACKPINK in all its colors and get to know it even better. Now, while the whole world is covering SOLO and trying to pronounce ‘DDU-DU DDU-DU’, we join him and wait for new releases that will surely break their own records.
K/DAThe League of Legends World Championship was not complete without K-pop - a real trend of 2018. The K/DA video for the track POP/STARS turned out to be spectacular - dance music does its job, thanks to which the view mark is approaching 130 million.
The animated characters were given their voices by girls Miyeon and Soyeon from the group (G)I-DLE. Yes, yes, the same group whose tracks LATATA and HANN sounded from every iron, despite the fact that (G)I-DLE debuted only in May of this year! They are already popular, participating in events on a global scale, so 2018 can safely be called their year.
Red VelvetBillboard has published the top 20 best k-pop songs of 2018, and they top it Red Velvet with the song Bad Boy.
It’s surprising that this release came out at the very beginning of the year, and after it there were Power up and RBB, but neither of these two compositions, according to critics, eclipsed the January “bad guy”. And all thanks to its unusual sound, which stands out sharply against the background of other tracks. Plus, the concept played an important role - the girls appeared not as “sweet cuties”, but as “daring grrrls”. You can listen to the opinions of critics, you can disagree with them, but the fact remains that the music of the Korean pop industry does not go unnoticed, and is not given over only to be devoured by the fans. She is criticized and viewed as separate genre. It shows trends and changes that show that creators are constantly looking for new things and trying to attract more listeners. BYE, 2018The world noticed k-pop and began to study itThe time will come when people will change their attitude towards it, will no longer consider it “another mainstream thing for teenagers”, but will perceive it as music and as an important part of world culture, that is, what it is.What will you remember from 2018? And what do you expect from the future? We have 365 new days ahead of us, so let's fill them with events together, like a real family, like a real fandom.

How it happened that Korean performers became popular in Russia - read our article. What is this?The musical direction of K-pop arose in South Korea in the early nineties of the last century and incorporated elements dance music, hip-hop, Western electropop and rhythm and blues. But at this moment, K-pop from a genre of music was transformed into a subculture with an army of millions of followers around the world. They listen to him, they sing him, they dance him. It's practically a religion. The essential features of K-pop are catchy musical rhythms, varied vocals (not only in Korean, but also in English), theatrical performances and lots and lots of dancing. By the way, with dances synchronized with vocals, K-pop performers are very reminiscent of American boy bands of the 90s and early 2000s. Dancing to a catchy beat is an integral part of K-pop group videos. Promoting K-pop artists is hard work. Girls and boys practice their vocal and dance skills every day to stand out among other groups. And music agencies spend about $400,000 on training a singer and try to control his professional and social life in order to guarantee the success of the performer. Groups spend hours perfecting numbers On this moment K-pop has expanded beyond South Korea. For example, BTS group in 2017 she made her debut in America at the annual American Music Awards festival. And at the Billboard Music Awards, almost 300,000,000 fans voted for the group! Isn't it an indicator of popularity? Billboard Music Awards crowd went crazy for BTS Why is this?K-pop is very popular among teenagers: girls (slightly less often boys) over 12 years old follow the work of “idols” as if spellbound, sing their songs, create fan clubs and visit themed establishments. This popularity is most likely due to the unusual catchy appearance performers, strong voices and catchy melodies. And the media almost always set “idols” as an example for young people and characterize them only in a positive way. Idols don't just give interviews to Korean media Fan support for the performers is unusually strong. Fans find like-minded people and go on organized tours to see their favorite bands perform live. In addition to the usual gifts (toys, drawings, handmade items), singers are sent lunches - fans are worried that their idols do not have time to eat due to their busy busy schedules. And they are also given tons of rice - this Chinese tradition, which symbolizes support and respect. K-pop unites fans around the world The downside of fameK-pop has both a light and a dark side. Large agencies are often criticized for almost enslaving contracts with performers, which are created to extract maximum benefits and tie the personal life and career of the singer to the agents. The BBC even called it “indentured servitude.” Financially, these contracts are not that profitable for singers, and the work schedule is extremely tight, clearly not taking into account the singers’ need for normal rest. Also, some agents do not hesitate to make threats against young people, and harassment and harassment are rampant. Critics are unhappy with K-pop music's assembly line system, meaningless lyrics, diluted with simple phrases on English language. Performers are also accused of mindlessly copying American pop music. But the taste and color, as they say... The main thing is that the fans like it, isn’t it? K-pop artists' tracks are very similar to American pop singers' tracks, and idols do everything to stand out By the way, about fans: the greatest concern is caused by obsessive fans who are prone to impulsive actions, breaking the law “for the sake of musicians” and invading the privacy of performers. They even came up with a term for them - “sasaeng”. And K-pop idols perceive such sasaeng fans as negatively as possible. In 2012, there was a lot of discussion about an incident when singer Kim Jaejoong from the group JYJ hit a sasaeng fan, accusing her of invading privacy, and then sued her for illegally recording his conversations. Inappropriate behavior is expressed in stalking, attempts to break into houses and apartments, theft of personal belongings, installation of video cameras in apartments and GPS trackers on singers’ cars. In addition to the strange, but still initially friendly fans, there are anti-fans in the K-pop environment, and they really can be crazy. In 2011, singer Jung Yunho from the group DBSK was added superglue to his water by one of these girls, after which he had to receive medical attention. How to live with this?K-pop is quickly gaining momentum and gaining a foothold on the world stage.
