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

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.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
