No it's tacky and tragic. How can you listen to something you don't understand?

f(x) have quite a few choruses in English. They are my favs as they're on the more western side of the spectrum, great albums + videos.

No

You can easily sing along to a song that you´ve listened to for a while based on the lyrical sounds. It´s not hard. And this doesn´t just go for Asian language music but any language music that one doesn´t understand.

it was a viral thing, just like worldwide #1 Gangnam Style

[KORDEI]

No. It's a matter of being misinformed and thinking every song is basically like Gangnam Style or generic lol. There is also the fact that we don't really understand. Spanish is different because we all have basic knowledge about that culture & language. Of course there ARE some ppl that don't because of xenophobia/racism. I posted pictures of my favorite male idols on Twitter and people started unfollowing

If you hate asians, yes.

Okay. I'd say getting butthurt because someone called someone out on one's ******** is also attributing to one's racist tendencies… And "non-English music" does fit in the title… you, try again…

But it doesn't, or at least not in the cutoff, which is what I was going for.

And I don't get how I'm racist for talking about a specific relatable example of pop music only on a pop music forum (for example, would this thread have anywhere near as many views for, say, German rock), but okay!

I stan for f(x)

No, liking K-pop makes you racist.

I don't like the majority of Country music. It's never really clicked with me. Some songs are cute tho. I'm sure people feel the same way about K-pop. That's not racist.

So, you don't care about the topic itself, you're just doing this for responses and views…
Okay, well, lemme just end our conversation here…

I can fluently sing at least 100 K-POP songs and I don't know more than 20 words in Korean.
What is this?

about Work, I can maybe see it because the lyrics themselves lowkey make no sense in the chorus, unless it's some lingo I've never heard of because I'm not down with the kidz anymore

The lyrics are easy to understand, Work discusses the topic of a fragile relationship between a couple. There is no "lingo" in the song, she is singing in Caribbean patois.

K-Pop is the racist one, not me. The cultural appropriation is disgusting, especially when taken into context of how Korea treats blacks, and how Koreans who are traveling or studying abroad look down upon blacks.

if i only like swede-speaking songs, even tho a black girl sings it, but i don't like a song sung in english sung by a white man. am i racist?

[Phunk]

Not at all. I like a few K-Pop songs but it's difficult to like songs when they're not in your language, even with translations.

see me do me dirt

I literally don't understand what that line means. I can understand the literal words of the song (Genius was my friend at first but it isn't that hard, apart from in the final chorus but that was deliberate I think) but that still doesn't make much sense. Rough sex?
