I started listening to kpop the day after the forum wipe last year - fitting! I'm growing a bit apart from the fandom (music fandom never seemed like my sort of thing, anyway) but I still love kpop itself. I'm big on good vocals and melody and songs that catch my interest instantly, and kpop has always been the easiest genre to find that in I've ever known. I like Super Junior, Big Bang, B2ST, CN Blue, SNSD, G.NA, SISTAR, TRAX, Infinite, FT Island, IU, and After School. There are a lot of groups I've been meaning to check out, but..so much music, so little time. Anyone else like these? Other groups or artists you'd like to recommend? (And out of curiousity, do you consider yourself part of any fanclub?)
I am so happy that I found a k-pop thread! I love 2PM (as shown on my picture), but I also really like B2ST, SHINee, and Miss A. Also recently the group MYNAME debut, and I think they have a lot of potential.
Ooooh, I love me some KPop too! I love SNSD, but I also listen to Miss A and Dal Shabet. I have to admit, I like my KPop sugary and sweet sounding. I keep meaning to check out more bands, but I sort of drift between being obsessed with KPop and JPop. I may have to check out some of those bands at some point too!

If you like J-Pop, you should check out Buono! and Berryz Koubou. They're both really good. GG/SNSD's Japanese album was really good, especially "BAD GIRL" and "You-aholic."
I'm a huge fan of K-pop! I listen to a lot of the same stuff as you do (Super Junior, BB, B2ST, CN Blue, SNSD, Infinite, AS). I'm a long-time Shinhwa fan and I would absolutely recommend them. Let's see, who else? BoA, f(x), Brown Eyed Girls, Miss A, Rainbow, MBLAQ, Shinee, 2PM, U-kiss, Block B, K.Will, Younha, 8Eight, V.O.S., M.C. the Max, and on and on the list goes. I guess some of those aren't really "K-pop" per se, but I recommend them all anyway!
Yaaaay K-Pop! I am sort of tragically obsessed, according to my sister, though I haven't delved too deeply into it thus far. When I'm writing, I have the odd inability to listen to much English music without getting frustrated, so I outsource to foreign genres as a whole, or just go the classical or trance route.
K-Pop is my favourite, though. My top three artists would have to be SNSD, SHINee, and CN Blue, in that order. *Dying as The Boys is delayed further* :'(
Also a fan of Kara, T-ara, f(x), Super Junior (and their subgroups, especially SuJu-M), and 2NE1. I like songs from practically every other group mentioned here, so I won't list it off. :)
I consider myself a Sone and Shawol, and am hopelessly in love with Taeminnie. Gotta say, though, 2PM has beautiful men.
Anyways...I started getting into k-pop 2 years ago, and I've been obsessed ever since. My top 5 groups would have to be Shinhwa, SS501, FT Island, BEAST, and Infinite. I haven't been too largely addicted to girl groups yet, but I've recently started watching SNSD videos and they might be the only girl group where I can name all the members and match them to faces. ^^;
I've been into k-pop for years now; my favourite band is still TVXQ, although of course now JYJ tie with them since the split (Jaejoong will always have my crazy fangirl heart). I usually know what's doing well in the k-pop charts but never what is going on in the English ones. Other favourites would include Sunny Hill, FT Island, MBLAQ, U-KISS and B2ST.
I'm pleased there are so many other fans out there and I know that k-pop will dominate my nano playlist this year.
I'd consider myself a fan as I buy the albums and some merchandise of DBSK and JYJ, but I'm not part of their fan club/cafe.
Cool, a thread about Kpop! I love B2ST and f(x) the most; they're my favorite groups---but I also love Super Junior, SHINee, SNSD, 2NE1, etc. (Mostly SMTown artists). I also happen to like some songs from other groups. Kpop gets me through the day, and helps me through homework too.
It's funny how I used to hate Kpop and thought I would never like it, but now I love it to death and I'm eating my own words, all thanks to Super Junior M.
I've been a kpop fan for a little over two years now! SuJu started it all, really, but it didn't take long for SHINee to steal my heart. I also really like F.T Island, Brown Eyed Girls, and 2NE1, but I won't pretend I'm ENTIRELY up-to-date when it comes to kpop.
Do you guys really particularly recommend any recent stuff?
Whoo! Last year I was introduced to k-pop at the very end of November, so I didn't get a chance to participate in the k-pop talk here in the forums much at all. Anyways, I am now a huge, full-fledged k-pop fan. I'm in love with Super Junior, SHINee, Beast, U-Kiss, and Big Bang, and I really love B1A4, Infinite, Dalmatian, FT Island, CN Blue, and so on. My sister and I are the kind of people that buy as much of our music as we can, and in the last year we've spend almost $200 on k-pop. Egad. But that was us trying to buy all the old stuff and new stuff, so it's slowing down now XD I consider myself an ELF, a Shawol and a B2uty, and maybe a KissMe. But since I find those titles ridiculously lame, I try not to use them ;)
Anyways, if you're a fan (which obviously everyone here is) feel free to message me, because I am tragically low on k-pop friends. Suggestions will come later, I suppose.
Loooove K-pop! I love learning the dances too hahahaha. But I really enjoy SNSD, Kara, Super Junior, MBLAQ, Infinite, Miss A and so many more. I also really am fond of IU and then Song Ji Eun's voice. I really like when singers from the groups release singles cause they're usually great pieces of music!
Ooo, love, love Kpop! Lessee, I like SuJu (and SuJu-M), SHINee, ZE:A, TVXQ, F.Cuz, SNSD, Kan Mi Youn, SS501 (and Park Jung Min's solo works), Big Bang... a lot actually. There's more than that, much much more, but right now I've been listening to Super Junior, SNSD, and ZE:A a lot again.
I don't usually listen to Kpop while writing though because I get distracted and start singing and dancing to it. Heh...
Kpop thread, how lovely! *u* I listen to pretty much everything kpop, sometimes obsessing over that song or another. I'm a fan of few groups (namely ZE:A and Boyfriend) but that doesn't mean I listen only to their music. Tbh, I prefer girlgroups' songs? Easier to listen to or something.
Although now my earcandies are Infinite's Paradise and Super Junior's A-cha. This will change in a few days I bet, when new songs are released. XD
My interest in K-pop is entirely the fault of Kim Hyun Joong. Why'd you have to be so #$(^ing pretty in Boys Over Flowers, and why'd you have to dance so nice. DANGIT ALL.

Re: K-pop
I really like Girl's Day. Their songs are very catchy. Especially "Twinkle Twinkle" and "Hug Me Once."
Kan Mi Youn's "Paparazzi" is pretty good too.
I know you mentioned them above, but Girls' Generation/SNSD's new album is REALLY good.

Re: K-pop
I've been obsessed with Big Bang (especially G-Dragon's solos) and TVXQ for years. SE7EN, SHINee and Super Junior are pretty high up there too.
Right now I'm hooked on Boyfriend, MBLAQ, and TEEN TOP.

Re: K-pop
I'm a huge fan of Kpop too. My bands nr 1 are Shinee and B2ST. Then I love MBLAQ, Suju, Boyfriend, F.T. Island, C.N. blue and a lot of other bands.
Re: K-pop
I'm a fan on Korean music in general.
As for K-Pop, I'm currently loving Brown Eyed Girl's and Infinite's newest songs. I listen to a lot of other groups too. (Especially TVXQ & SuJu!)

Re: K-pop
Someone else from England whose crazy fangirl heart (so apt a phrase XD) belongs to Jaejoong? *shocked* Pleased to meet you!

Re: K-pop
Infinite has some really good stuff (but I'm totally biased), and MBLAQ's most resent is good (the album before put me to sleep, sadly).
Oh. Kim KyuJong's Yesterday is the best of the SS501 solo efforts (personal opinion), but HyunJoong's "Lucky Guy" is good, too.
*trying to remember what's on my playlists...* Oh. U-Kiss's Neverland is entirely too fun, too.
Re: K-pop
Fantastic! I'll check into all of those. :D
I listen(ed) to MBLAQ, but I've never really given Infinite or SS501 a chance. I'll have to do so.

I'm just getting into K-pop (so I appreciate any and all suggestions!) and so far I'm obsessed with SHINee. I mean, obsessed.
Such pretty, pretty boys. Such good dancers. I can't even.
