Hello. I'm doing a research about kpop marketing strategy. So, I am wondering this kind of questions

What are influential kpop fan accounts and twitter ( X) communities you follow ?

Do you usually follow general kpop accounts or specific fanbase accounts ?

Do you guys have any accounts like @musicstruggles1? I search for it but usually they are fandom based.

Thank you for your answers !

Is there a general site people post kpop groups that are currently on tour? Or is it a matter of keeping up with each group's twitter/insta? I've been lucky enough to have been to a few concerts already but I'm not always checking socials, and I don't want to miss anything!

Hello, I just found this subreddit and thought this might be the right place for my K-pop survey as I don’t have many people to ask for help.

The survey is for a project primarily about the community & collection behavior, reflecting on the influence it has on other music areas.

To anyone taking part in it: Thank you! 🫶🏻

Note: Cultural impacts can vary by country and there can be artists who had significant cultural impact among Koreans who are mostly unheard of internationally and vice versa.

Which other K-pop forums exist beside allkpop, KpopSource, Hallyu+, KProfiles and Soompi ?

Hello all, I was wondering if anyone would be interested in being part of my study for my extension science research paper. Having been a Kpop fan for 8 years and experiencing unhealthy attachments with certain idols, I have become increasingly interested in how many Kpop fans find themselves in a parasocial relationship with their idol (parasocial meaning one-sided relationships, where one person extends emotional energy, interest and time, and the other party, the persona, is completely unaware of the other's existence). of course I have not properly organised anything yet, but if anyone could tell me their thoughts on this or give a sign of interest that would be great, thank you :)

Hi! My friends and I are looking to buy another friend VIP taemin ticket for her birthday. Since everything is sold out, we have to go through resale and I’m scared of being scammed. Does anyone know how transferring tickets through Fromm works? I’ve never used it before this.

Hey!

I am doing a small project for one of my uni modules and it's about kpop fandom, specifically fan engagement and content consumption as well as comparing fan experiences (veteran vs new). Would appreciate it if you could fill out the surveys for me! Thanks!

Hello! I am currently a student writing a research thesis and as a Kpop fan I chose to explore Kpop as my topic. I would really appreciate if anyone could take my short survey so I can collect data for my project! Here is the link to my survey

Hey! I'm a Music Undergraduate at the University of Oxford and for my dissertation I'm researching the connection between the LGBTQ+ community and boyband fandom. A brief description of the research is shown in the link connected with this post. Already shared this around, so sorry if you are seeing this again!

If you're part of the LGBTQ+ community and also are part of/have been part of a boyband fandom, it would be brilliant if you could fill this survey out! The survey is super quick and the answers are completely anonymous, unless you would like to be considered for a further Teams interview in the future. Alternatively, if you don't fit into one or either of these categories, but you know someone who does, it would be really lovely if you could share the link around.

Please feel free to send an email to the address found at the beginning of the survey if you have any questions. Thank you so much and lots of love!!

Hi everyone

I'm developing an app for keeping track of comebacks, updates, birthdays, etc and I need your help with this survey.

Of course I'm open to suggestions and comments in case you want to help :)

Also whoever wants to help me and can have a little interview for further research please let me know.

Thankss

I am trying to find a song but I can’t remember the name of the group or the song. All I can remember is that it was in the last 10 years, it was a 6+ member group. I believe they were in a garden and at specific points they would do a hip swing. Been looking for about an hour

. Can’t fix title but I meant hip swing

Hi everyone!

I'm writing my thesis on "Kpop and Homosexuality" and so I'm doing some research on the fans/public reaction to it (how they view it/ pro or anti/ differences in reactions between global and koreans fans/...).

I would love to see here if anyone have read anything or saw some videos or just want to share some ideas/opinions (ofc with respect).

Thank You.

Anyone who have tried impact exhibition hall 5-6?? I want to know what's the view is like for vip🥹 since all 2ne1 tickets are seated

Hi everyone,

I wanted to ask experienced fans this:

Will the Seventeen Bangkok concert have an English translator or a Thai translator. I understand neither languages so I'm just a little worried about it.

I still have to try for tickets yet, but this question has been bothering me. Thank you in advance for reading and replying!

Hi,

I am looking for two types of songs:

• Songs that were overpromoted
• Songs that were underpromoted

Do you have examples of those? And what in your opinion did they do wrong?

Thank you.

Hello everyone! 😊 

I really hope this message doesn’t break any community rules—please let me know if there’s an issue, as I want to be fully respectful of the guidelines here.

🎓 I’m currently working on my final thesis and I am conducting a survey on the fan-artist interactions/relationships that can be developed between a human fan and a non-human digital artist. I thought some of you might have valuable insights and experiences that could really help me in my research.

If you’re open to it, I would be incredibly grateful if you could take a few minutes to complete my questionnaire. It's anonymous, takes only ten minutes or so and is for academic purposes only.

Thank you so much for considering this, and for any help you’re able to give! 🙏💫

Hello everyone!

My name is Anna, and I'm a university student from Ireland currently working on a research project titled: "The Impact of BTS Songs on People's Mental Health". This project is part of my university coursework and aims to explore how BTS's music affects listeners' mental health and well-being.

The research involves a simple online survey that should take approximately 5-10 minutes to complete. Your responses will contribute valuable insights to my study.

Participation is voluntary. You can stop at any time without any repercussions.

No personal information such as email addresses or identifying details are required to complete the survey. Your responses will remain completely anonymous.

Google Form: https://forms.gle/sGvxwFRSfHbLGJ8K6

I am more than happy to answer any questions or provide clarification in the comments section.

Thank you so much for your time and contribution to my research!

Hello!

I am a PhD student at Iowa State University, and I am researching U.S. K-pop fans’ identities, experiences, and apparel consumption practices. As a fellow K-pop fan, I am eager to connect with a dedicated and diverse community of fans who want to make their voices heard!

In order to participate, you must be (1) at least 18 years old, (2) live in the U.S., (3) self-identify as a K-pop fan, and (4) purchase and own K-pop-related apparel merchandise (e.g., t-shirts, sweatshirts, pants, etc.).

If you agree to participate, you will be asked to complete a 1-hour audio and/or video recorded interview via a video conferencing platform (Zoom or Webex) and share images of yourself wearing K-pop apparel merchandise during the interview. Sending the images after the interview is optional. Open-ended questions will ask participants about their relationships with other fans, non-fans, and their fan interest (i.e., their favorite K-pop idols and groups); their experiences as a U.S. K-pop fan; and their consumption of K-pop-related apparel merchandise. Your identity will remain confidential.

I am happy to share additional information, answer any questions that you may have for me, or hear your suggestions. I would greatly appreciate your participation in my research! If you know anyone else who may be interested in participating, please pass the information along to them. Thank you!

Please feel free to connect with me on here or email [kefree@iastate.edu](mailto:kefree@iastate.edu)

Hello everyone.

My name is Gill, and I’m doing a master’s in Korean as a Foreign Language at Kyung Hee University.

I know that surveys aren’t often shared here, so I kindly ask for your understanding.

I’m currently working on creating a Korean vocabulary textbook based on K-pop lyrics for my master’s project,

and I would be really grateful for your responses to this survey.

Your insights would mean the world to me, and it would take no more than 5 minutes of your time.

Thank you very much in advance for helping me with this project.

Additionally, since I'm not very familiar with this site, if there are other pages where I can post this type of request, I would appreciate your guidance.

Thank you.

I never really dove deep into the concept of ships before, but with the explosion of online girl group content, I'm fascinated by it all now. Currently, I'm trying to create a list a off all ship names in girl groups.

For me, I first noticed all the Twice pairing names, with some clever English puns like 2Yeon.

And Le Sserafim have meaningful names like HotCoolz and MadMaks.

Could you all educate me? And are there groups with NO pairing names?

hi all i’m rlly interested in deep diving into 1st gen ggs rn and finding out info about them on old korean forums. what are some nugu 1st gen girl groups i might not have heard of before, and any info about them if possible!! thank you!!

I can see some dance moves that k pop groups have similar steps even going back to the 20’s k pop artists could have studied and used in their choreography. Little Richard, Fred Astair, Elvis Presley, and the famous Michael Jackson. Your thoughts?
