They don't just make kpop do they?
I remember when I thought Japan only made cheesy anime ballads. Then I found bands like Toe and World's End Girlfriend.
Pic related is comfy electronic dreampop

I think Koreak might actually just produce Kpop.
all ive found is k-rock which is kpop with guitars. don't care about k-rap because why listen to rappers you can't understand

Dope Korean post rock

That is the one korean band that I know that produces something else.
there's a ton of korean shoegaze and postrock, but it's a paint by numbers affair for the most part

More K-Dreampop
If this thread is still around when I'm back from work I'll post some more stuff and probably album links too. I like k-pop but its always fun to explore past the most surface aspects of a country's music.

You sound like a closeminded person. No they don't just make kpop. Listen to some traditional folk music from Korea if you want.

Jang Kiha and the Faces.
really easy-listening pop rock
Apollo 18
post rock
unfortunately south korea still lacks a musical identity. You wont find much divergence like you find in japanese music.
All I know is We Got Underwear And Lots Of Girls
Is anyone mentioned here like them?
Literally too many to list, from drone to indie to shoegaze to glitch, etc.
Here, take this now, I like everything by these guys, such relaxing vocals.

Also, k-pop ain't that bad either.

kpop before kpop was called kpop
it's Trot and it's huge with the korean old ladies. the old ladies give their daughters shit for how they worship kpop idols but these fuckers went just as hard 20-30 yrs ago
My friend is into k-pop and all things Korean, he sent me some stuff a while ago. I won't post the hip-hop though, since I thought it was pretty cringe-worthy.

I have been attempting to find a DL link for The Strikers for a long while now. If anyone has any of their albums they would like to share I would be super grateful.
