i miss kpop in 2009.. it was a golden year of kpop!! I became a kpop fan in that year.. a lot of amazing songs & groups too. tvxq, super junior, ss501, big bang, shinee, 2pm, 2am, u-kiss, mblaq, beast, ft-island, cn-blue, snsd, 2ne1, f(x), t-ara, kara... i miss their time :(

[@theasianrapunzel]

OLD KPOP FOR THE WORLD!! Always and forever older kpop. Third generation is meh... sure they're getting more attention, but only because second generation sent the Hallyu Wave and now kpop is more known. But those new fans who don't know and bash the older groups, shame on you, you missed the legends. Back in the second generation I remember all these shows where they would get together and how you could tell the close relationships between the groups. Man, how I miss the second generation, when there weren't as many crazy fans and less fan wars.

[@denica2002]

The fan wars are so bad! I don't think it's a good thing! Like... Everyone has a different opinion. And everyone has the right for an own opinion so no need for fan wars. But i think that the new kpop isn't bad! Like i love 2ne1 so much and snsd and exo. But i have never listened to TVXQ. Are they good???

[@DokuraChannel]

+Denica Kotorova They were for the 2nd K-pop generation, EXO is today for third. So listen it.

I don't really listen to the older generation kpop, but I respect them, and I acknowledge that they started the Hallyu Wave. New fans should be grateful.

[@oliviasheltonsmith]

Denica Kotorova Yeah give TVXQ a listen. Their old songs were good (when they were a 5 member band) however, I love their new songs as a duo! They have some really good songs :) Fighting!

I think what has a lot of veteran kpop fans nostalgic is the gradual change we've seen. I mean we've seen groups debut, groups break up, song styles change. Newer kpop fans only know what's become more mainstream and what's current. Music is always changing and sometimes it's hard to let go and keep up with it.

[@DokuraChannel]

Lol, no. Maybe many newer fans but aren't all. I'm a new fan and often i try learn more about K-Pop, don't generalize, please.

[@crystalite15]

Well there's a portion of new kpop fans that aren't like you. I wasn't generalizing at all...lol

[@emmabrooke2889]

I'm a new fan (relatively) and I hardly even know who EXO is.. I prefer the less popular groups, less drama.

[@DokuraChannel]

Mei Tachibana You have a friend here, just i know too much about EXO because Instagram, if you one and follow pure K-Pop accounts everyday you will see something about EXO and BTS. Personally, i'm not EXO-L but i learned to like Suho and Chanyeol and i think i'm loving Bangtan already xd. Anyway, various of my favs are very little known for many newer fans xd.

[@nildaalvarado9026]

DokuraChannelBK Bangtan are a really great band! the reason why they started is different from the other groups and they only follow status quo because if they didn't they wouldn't be liked as much and then in result paid less.

[@babyfozzy]

One of the saddest thing while watching this video is that... when you realized that most of the old kpop groups mentioned, have lost member(s) or even worst disbanded. I felt like smiling... but some of the groups arent the same anymore. time does flies very fast. i miss them. the old is cringy, have lots of weird fashoin and low budget mv but hey.... thats what make it special. less fanwars, amazing variety shows... & great bond between the groups. nowadays? massive fanwars & fierce competition between the groups that could cause major rivalry .

[@minhogirlforever]

i agree to every word. it's really sad.

[@backtomimsey]

And that will eventually happen to the new groups today..years from now people will forget about them as more new groups debut and time changes..when you think about it, being an idol is a short term career unless they go into acting and it sucks because they train for a long time

I've been listening to K-pop for almost 17 years now, since the debut of Fin.k.l (fyi, the legendary group where Lee Hyori was the leader) and i dare to say, the old kpop you're referring to is not that old, they're pretty new. i'll say the real old kpop is from the debut of seo taiji and boys to the disbandment of h.o.t in 2001 and one year later of s.e.s. That was the end of the first group wave, and the raise of ballad songs at the same time. Then in 2005 came the second wave of new groups, i.e. csjh, SNSD and Suju. (TVXQ as a 5 men group, the kings of the period, was formed in 2003 though), till a bigger and more profound third wave from 2008-09 (2pm, shinee, 2ne1, 4minute, t-ara, f(x), after school all debuted these two years), until now. The first wave was when kpop got its popularity in Asia (except japan perhaps, for its reluctance to accepting new and foreign stuff). The third wave gains the highest international attention, so if youre new to the kpop scene, you probably find the first two three years of the third wave already "old".

This is just what I notice: Old kpop: Though it is influenced by J-pop and has western elements, when you see the MVs and hear the songs, you can identify it as Kpop. Heck, even my non kpop friends identified the old kpop as kpop. New kpop: The MVs and the songs look and sound like American...but sang in korean. This is just my opinion though.

Now the idols, even when mobbed or attached by fans have to keep smiling and show that everything is fine... Also with all the toxic fans and intense fanwars, it's hella possible that idols still get poisoned and physically attached and all, it's just they have to hide it and have to SHOW love to their FANS🙃🙃🙃 This is the problem now, idols can't even express themselves... Of course there were fanwars and fan fights back then, even physical ones, or idols were abused, but the rude and problematic ones got sued too, BY THE IDOLS, unlike now a days, where if idols act against problematic fans, they are called rude and hated(like Yuta, Doyoung and many more, even Chanyeol was hated for suing fans who LITERALLY tried ruining his image and career, TXT were hit by their own manager besides being mobbed by fans, but still!! it's the idols who were hated!!!)

Having been around K-pop for almost 10 years now, its hard to say which i prefer, because the "old" K-pop is what i grew up with and what got me into K-pop, so there is a level of nistalgia listening to it and love that cannot be replaced, while the new songs and rookie groups debuting i am getting to follow from the beginning, so i have attatchments to them as well, and they are all talented. The music is definitely changing with the times, but it will always have that K-pop spirit that we know and love.

2009 was the best year for girl group debuts: After School, 4minute, f(x), 2NE1, T-ARA, and Secret all had successful debuts. Since then most debuts have been ignored until this year 2015. A new generation of girl groups are becoming popular from debut: Lovelyz, G-Friend, Oh My Girl, Sonamoo, CLC are having successful debut as well. I hope 2015 continues to be a great year for debuts

[@vacationbonerschool]

Sonamoo's debut was not successful, they got recognised internationally but in Korea their sales were really low compared to Red Velvet and Lovelyz etc.

[@alexkwong8631]

Star Yeon Their debut was anticipated because they were from TS, which holds Secret and B.A.P(former). So they're a rookie group with potential. of course Red Velvet and Lovelyz started off well being sistergroups of big boy groups so they already had a big fanbase(mostly fangirls) to start with

Honestly, I started being a Kpop fan in about March last year. My first song that I took interest in was Lucifer. It's not like new Kpop fans today don't listen to the Kpop released back in 2008 ~ 2012. Although I'm no expert, I can just see the evolution of music in all parts of the world. Some genres are getting worse, some are getting better. The thing is, I don't look at dates in Kpop videos. I just Watch. You know what I'm saying? I enjoy it and I get the good vibe off of it new or not. Sure, things are different but I feel like the original aspects of Kpop still lives on in songs today. It just happens, things just change. Technology, the "trends," everything... The things I get from new Kpop videos gives me the same feelings as watching old Kpop videos. I don't know if this is just me but even if things do change, I feel the same because there are artists out there who put out the most wonderful songs no matter when it was released.

I ALMOST CRIED WHEN SS501 CAME ON

[@justimcgathy9508]

Mei Tachibana me too!! I became a fan of kpop too late to experience them when they were together :( and then that big thing happened with Kim Hyun Joong. UGH haha but I'm a huge fan of Vixx and Big Bang and EXO and several others. but I've only been listening for about a year now.

[@babyyneekyy]

[@inspiritboice]

DBSK and SS501 brought me into Kpop and I'm still stuck in 2008-2012... Those hit groups in the past are forgotten by people(never for "old" fans but most of the fans are "new", these days). I'm amazed when some fans calling themselves "hardcore Kpop fans" literally don't know DBSK used to have 5 people, forever legends groups like SS501/Shinhwa, and even active groups like Infinite and BEG!!

[@mouthsuctiongangster6397]

I personnally prefer new kpop x) I like some old songs for bigbang SNSD Super Junior

[@princesshyunaa-ings4nia217]

Baek hyunee that’s trash I don’t think new is good

[@Dztruxtion]

I don't know why some people say that "just because they're new fans doesn't mean they don't know old songs" no one said that clearly here's KZbin for every single old song for them to travel through. What most of us old kpoppers are saying is that you're not going to have that same feel watching old songs now because you didn't grow up listening to kpop like that. I've been a kpop fan for about 8 years now and I first discovered SHINee and ever since then I've been a shawol since then I started to listen to other groups such as suju, snsd, 2ne1, f(x), tara, mblaq, infinite etc, honestly it was the best era in my opinion it was basically the second generation of kpop and they made it big internationally and spread that definition of hallyu across the board but like we said new kpop fans would not really feel how we felt when we used to watch this stuff when it was brand new. Yes a new kpop fan can know as many old songs as we old kpoppers do but they aren't getting that nostalgic feeling we get when watching it now and remembering watching it back when it was new.

[@omaymamed6103]

pie itsalana I totally agree! I'm an old kpoper, old VIP! and i found the old kpop songs especially the B's song Haru Haru is from the golden era ! The new kpop fan won't get it or feel as we felt back then when the favourite band do a comeback or appear in a show! all i can say is OLD BUT GOLD! the old kpop is much better then the new

[@Dztruxtion]

Umayma yea like people say "everything was weird back then" well first of all everything was old back then and during that time THAT WAS THE FASHION AND TRENDS so no one can even speak on that. And old kpop is definitely better than new and I think that's because of the amount of older groups I know

[@berryya]

I'm so glad I've got to experience the "old" kpop. ❤

[@ollieoxen426]

New Kpop will always be the better music. Half of y'all are blinded by nostalgia lmfao. New Kpop is more diverse, has muuuuch better production and variety, and the god awful autotune is gone. I also found old Kpop a little more lifeless (there are exceptions ofc) There ARE amazing old Kpop songs obviously, but overall, Kpop is better now and will continue to improve just as music does.

[@IkeSan]

Yep the 2008-2014 era was my love for KPOP. I even watched a program called Pops in Seoul just for the new music.

[@nekochii00vlog]

"Old kpop " 2008 till 2010? Thats not right lol to me old kpop is the 1990s.... but we all started at different years so its ok i guess lol (btw shinee rules ☆☆☆☆☆)

[@andrewtuan3949]

I think this person did the second generation Kpop vs third generation probably because second generation artists are just more well known

[@nekochii00vlog]

Andrew Tuan yeah i guess so

[@dgtamer43yt]

Andrew Tuan the reason why they're well known is because most groups from the 90s broke up already since the KPop scene was much harder in the 90s, and stricter since doing solo activities will make you look like a betrayer so it's like.. they can't pursue their solo careers until they broke up :(

[@moreshige]

nekochii00 Old kpop for me started in the 80's, lol. For my parents, it was the 60's and 70's. But I get it, the 90's was a significant decade with the pivotal, group ,서태지와 아이들 (Seotaeji boys) debuted.

[@despairwillrise]

So where do artist like freestyle belong too? Ancient kpop?

[@thisCLUMSYgirl]

Seriously? When I read "old" I thought it was going to be Sechkies, Shinwa, H.O.T, se7en, fly to the sky, etc. Am I just that old?

[@dgtamer43yt]

thisCLUMSYgirl it's not because you're not "old", it's just that most KPop fans these days won't tend to check them out or they be like ooh yes they are legends yet they know nothing about these guys from the 90's, I got to Kpop in 2004 but I honestly love the 1st generation KPop more than ever. It's also obvious that most KPop fans these days can't even mention older groups besides TVXQ, Suju and etc.

[@sugarpugs3157]

Old Kpop boy groups for me is SHINee TVXQ and BigBang and new Kpop for me is BTS GOT7 and EXO. Girls it's - 4Minute SNSD for old and new EXID F(X) and Red Velvet

[@hallelulee6034]

Fx debuted only one year after shinee though??

[@senninsky6790]

F(x) is old group dude

Yup

[@triwahyana6627]

fx debut 2009

[@fathinurhaliza8586]

fx include to old grup even legend with snsd and 2ne1. fx the third kpop girl group who reach 100M viewers on KZbin

[@LolaGK96]

Honestly I consider "old kpop" groups like HOT,SES,Shinhwa,god etc but I think the 2nd generation of kpop with groups like BIGBANG,2ne1,Wonder Girls,2PM,Suju,SNSD,DBSK,Shiner etc. are the best generation of kpop and all the new groups should learn from them cause they made kpop what it is

[@madiemitchell2326]

EXO, GOT7, SHINee, BTS, some personal favorites

[@saraangel7605]

I am a BLINK, a somewhat ARMY, and an IU fan, but I felt like 2009 was really K-Pop's golden age. SS501, SHINee, Girls' Generation, 2Ne1, f(X)... I felt like I really missed a lot.

[@memeigot7118]

old kpop when exo was 12

[@memeigot7118]

old kpop is the best

[@freakinlocket]

+Meena Aljuboory no old kpop is when exo didn't debute , exo are the 3rd generation

[@yuexux]

Um no that was in 2012 get your facts right

[@freakinlocket]

***** exo are the 3rd generation . why is this so hard to admit //sigh , exo , red velvet for sm , btob clc for cube , even Apink are the 3rd generation , and they debuted earilier than exo . the 2nd generation are : TVXQ , SUJU , SS501 , SNSD , SHINee , ft island , KARA , T-ara , MBLAQ , U-kiss , BEAST , and a lot of other groups

[@freakinlocket]

***** omg I'm so sorry I replied to the wrong person ; ; just exo-ls are everywhere and they just keep saying that they're 2nd generation as if they are and it's frustrating for an old kpop fan like me , and sorry neh ~

[@EmotionalCacti]

I find that recent kpop is actually more diverse than old kpop. There is more genres than the cute, sexy, badass concepts.

[@raiiniiee95]

More diverse? You gotta be joking.

[@lashes0409]

weathervane101 more diverse? LOL

[@Jenny-mw3vc]

I thought a lot of it sounded the same, but newer kpop isn't much different. There's lots of generic songs and concepts being used all the time righ now too.

[@dgtamer43yt]

I think you're just new to KPop, if we are talking about old KPop, we meant legends that started the KPop wave from the 90's, and it was more diverse back then coz most idols back then had their own balloon colors representing every group's fans, just saying.. and vocals from the past were much powerful and dance moves back then were also tiring, not to mention they didn't need to wear heavy makeup just to look nice in camera.

[@lashes0409]

Shenron Elder Dragon colors still existed until like 2008 i think or 2007

[@MrChanto]

2017 I still listen all of those old Kpop song. 😭❤️

[@laurafountain2614]

I started listening to Kpop in 2013 and as much as I love the new Kpop the stuff from before 2013 just takes the cake. The music released back then was the best stuff the industry has seen for most groups.

[@magnes1410]

I feel so old now...I remember when I was waiting for Lucifer to be released.......and I still like it :) oh and Bi's Rainism and TVXQ's Mirotic still give me chills!!!! Infinite's Come Back Again is great to listen even now. I was obsessed over U-kiss's man man ha ni and BTOB's WOW. But tbh I think songs presented here can't be called "old".

[@cedricdagale6233]

this is the golden era of kpop,i've been a kpop fan since 2015, but I do love this era i'd never listen to the new one except to yg artist,but I keep coming to the old one's . #fighting 2nd generations #Golden #era #is #LOVE!

[@alexally2769]

2014 for me is starting to feel like old Kpop all over again tbh, so many good groups that debuted that year. Mamamoo, Red Velvet, Lovelyz, Winner, GOT7, G-Friend (technically, they're 2015 but meh). These groups give me the 2009 modernized vibes.

[@amirulsyahirah]

Bts, winner and bap are really good groups

[@yasmina6884]

The "new kpop" in this video became the old kpop now :'( I'm still an "old kpop" fan, the 90s/2000s/early 2010s were the golden years for kpop.

[@spectral__]

LOL this is mostly wave 2, not old, which would be wave 1. I don't really have a preference, as I like some groups from all three. However, I will say Wave 3 has had the most duds by far, probably because now they try to rush groups to debut way more now than before. Lots of not-so-good stuff coming out compared to before. Also notice a lot of groups from smaller companies that have strong debuts, and then the next release is horrible because they don't wanna spend anymore money on them. =( For certain groups, like 2PM especially, I think their old stuff was WAY better. Whereas other groups, like SHINee and BIGBANG have stayed really consistent with their quality while still progressing with the trends. I've also noticed a lot of bands, especially MYNAME, completely switch to a hip-hop concept, which to me is just being a sell-out, especially since their debut was so good. I don't like them anymore. So basically, everything depends on the group whether older or newer is better. >__< If you wanna talk about fandoms, many new K-Pop fans are savages. And I've noticed it really depends on the group. It's seriously mostly fans of EXO and BTS, which is unfortunate. I used to like EXO, but all my favorite members left, and their style completely changed to something that felt...very empty. BTS I like very much, so it annoys me when ARMYs misbehave. Although Cassies and ELFs used to be pretty savage (many still are), as well as Sones and Blackjacks (who still can't stop fucking arguing). I guess wave 1 was the most peaceful. ^ ^;;

[@carolinecalca]

Agreed. I just hate when people start arguing about stupid stuff --" as a SONE myself, I'm always searching for other groups, and I like most of them (2NE1 included), but when I don't, I just don't listen to it. I mean, what's the point on arguing about it? People need to chill on other people opinions u.u

[@shahhadid742]

[@darksider7864]

[@loserassgf]

why do people hate sexy concepts so much?? nothing is wrong with them. you guys are acting like there was never any sexy concepts in 2009 or something. why not just appreciate kpop while you still have it? not all groups are "trying to be sexy to get attention" btw. you seriously can't just suddenly dislike "new kpop" because of that. -.-

[@azariasheppard3744]

I agree with this so much. And they're acting like its only kpop that's gotten sexier, but really it's like that with most things in this day and age regardless of country; music, movies, sometimes even ads. These people are probably in their early 20's but they're acting like freaking 80 year olds smh.

[@sungrinlee3806]

Because well, in my opinion. . The sexy concept was less sexy than now Now I feel like. . They're just like. . . Hollywood? And I actually hate Hollywood. So when I see them trying to be a bit like them. . Idk I don't like it Unlike before, they had their own style and concepts Idk really, that's just my opinion

[@shhsjszu]

They aren't writing their songs

[@carebear8655]

I definitely think their was a unique element to Kpop in the past that just made it distinct to other forms of music. It is the thing that got me into Kpop in the first place. There was more melody, personality, charisma and catchiness. Just listen to BoA's old music and tell me that stuff doesn't want to make you dance. However, I do acknowledge the fact that newer Kpop also has some hidden gems and does sound like it could be older Kpop music (hint hint: G-friend).

[@beafbuger]

2009 was such a good year

[@anonymousgirl1509]

[@Flolight0304]

[@anonymousgirl1509]

Kpop Lover what ?? Tvxq split was one of the most scandalous event in kpop. Three members did a lawsuit against SM then left and formed a new group caller JYJ while two members stayed and are still in TVXQ. TVXQ currently are a duo of Yunho and Changmin.

[@Flolight0304]

Anonymousgirl150 ok another question JYJ disband?

[@anonymousgirl1509]

im clearing out my watch later list and it's insane to watch this now haha

[@jungkookie5480]

of course old kpop its legendary

[@jgo4118]

I actually feel like newer songs are more diverse in style as kpop becomes more global and producers experiment with different genres. I love old kpop classics but new kpop excites me because it just seems like there's a wider variety of sounds now. Eg. we're getting mixtures of trap, r&b, reggae, deep house, retro throwbacks, orchestral, brass sounds, etc. Personally feel like 2015 was the year when k-pop really transitioned into something fresh.

[@jeyneo.8924]

No, 2015 was the year when kpop get USA sound, that I hate

[@TheAquamarine4]

[@jeyneo.8924]

+Cryingtae SS501, MBLAQ OR ZE:A AMERICAN INFLUENCE? I DON'T THINK SO

[@hollyrose2418]

[@user-is3yn7xr4c]

Yeah but that's what makes it less quality because u can no longer produce pure house, pure hip-hop, pure genre that one single in one song,

[@arianamarkus5041]

Someone, I think it was Tyler Oakley a few years back, said that they can't take the boy k-pop groups seriously, and yet I honestly can't really take any of the groups seriously based on their music videos and songs.... I really like ToppDogg, but that's probably because the first thing I seen or heard with them was the video where they're trying to pronounce western names. After that, started to look more into them and I really like their music and their personalities. I haven't actually looked into other groups quite as much, so I guess I can't really judge them. As of right now, though, and probably for as long as I listen to k-pop, ToppDogg will be my favorite group 😇

[@_shirazu_]

*PLEASE TAKE ME BACK TO WHEN 2014 WAS NEW KPOP 😭😭😭 2020 IS WOOORSE*

[@longLife013]

Altough new Kpop is fun and good, I miss the old Kpop so much. Kpop nowadays likes to show something bolder, girls getting sexier, boys getting scarier.. I started to watch Kpop in 2009, I was captured by Super Junior, SS501 (now SS301), SNSD, Wonder Girls, 2PM, and more. That's why I really miss those times. Many things change :(

[@susiechoi2495]

I like the new kpop better honestly. I've never really liked cute aegyo songs like "Gee" and "Marshmellow" which were most girl group songs back then. That and a lot of MVs back then seem very outdated. Also, a feel that a lot of groups back then were searching for an image and concept that best fit them. For instance, bigbang have developed a more hardcore, cool image since "Haru Haru". That being said, I do still appreciate the classics like "Abracadabra" and "Sorry Sorry".

[@monserratmarquina7078]

I agree with you 100% I don't like the cute songs either so new Kpop is better for me

[@jimintrash552]

[@teacup3064]

okay so you like TWCIE or Gfreind aegyo now? and speaking of searching for a concept, new kpop ruined the idea of concept

[@btsnctg-idle5102]

I think both of side it's really amazing in their way. It's also based on what people like at that time. And I think it's also because of when you become a kpop fan. Just like me, I prefer 2014 kpop song because I'm become a kpopers in this year. I'm really miss Miss A, 2Ne1, Bigbang, infinite, Kara, Crayon pop, EXO as 12 member and I also miss BTS old era. Just like Boy in luv. People now tend to like hip-hop, dance and edm(?) song just like BP kill this love, Everglow Audios & Ateez Say my name. Still love the both of side. Old kpop I like Gee Snsd, Mirotic TVXQ, Bigbang Monster. New kpop I like Gidle Latata, Nct We go up & Straykids District 9.

[@ILuvChloeBobo4Eva]

I came into the KPOP scene for the 1st time ever early last year, and I've definitely grown with the rookies of 2013 & 2014 more than older groups I have seen most of those older songs and it's hard to decide old or new, because I really love both; some older songs are better while some newer songs beat the older songs >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> i'm more at comfort with the newer kpop scene, so I like that a bit better by a little like I really like Haru Haru and a lot of SHINee's & TVXQ's (as well as their new ones) earlier songs but I would consider early 2000's - 2010 old kpop & 2011-2014 new; I honestly don't find 2012 to be old kpop, it only happened 2yrs ago... that's not that old >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> I have watched a lot of old kpop MV's the thing that I don't miss it the crappy KZbin quality or the smaller screens; what I do miss is the sound of that older music, after all it's the foundation of what kpop music is today. but seriously I love both old and new XD this is also coming from a younger person
