The Past and Present Famous Kpop Group

We all know that the Kpop group in this modern days are very famous and influential like BTS,Twice, Black pink,EXO etc. But before that we all knew that there's an old group called Seo Taiji and boys that was the first Kpop group,so let's start in brief history of that group.

Seo Taiji and Boys, the first Kpop group, debuted in 1992 with the song "I Know," which combined Western elements like hiphop and R&B. Despite the fact that the song was a far cry from conventional South Korean music, Seo Taiji and Boys were a huge hit and forever transformed the country's music scene.

However, most Americans were not introduced to Kpop until 2012, when Psy's "Gangnam Style" was released. The viral hit reached No. 2 on the Billboard list, a remarkable achievement for a song not written in English.

BTS, who debuted in 2013, presented a different picture of K-pop than Psy’s meme-worthy dancing movements. The trio performed songs that blended genres, choreographies that were forceful, and polished images that were established through South Korea’s rigorous training system for budding stars. BTS also maintained a consistent supply of information on social media, cultivating a devoted following thousands of miles away from Seoul.

But it wasn’t only synchronized routines and social media skills that helped BTS become America’s most popular boy band. Their songs, much of which were penned by the band members, addressed universal issues such as mental health, self-love, and the pressure to succeed.

Despite this, K-rise pop’s shows no signs of slowing down. For the first time, MTV’s prestigious Video Music Awards will include a “Best K-pop” category, featuring BTS as one of the finalists. 

Several other K-pop groups have signed deals with major American record labels such as Interscope and Capitol Records, indicating that the industry is recognizing the genre’s potential.
