To be honest my dad doesn't like kpop in general but jams to JYP's songs!!!! I guess its because of Jyp's retro vibe or something but i think the older people from 80's would enjoy few of jyp's songs ✨️🎤🤌
The fact that Sheesh from babymonster was insane succesfull globaly on streaming plattforms, alot non kpop fans really love it and it was played in the regular radio in Germany and other european countries...its a song i would show non kpop fans, they mostly thing kpop is cute and highpitched with alot of autotune and barely rap....but then comes babymonster with the strongest rap line, insane vocals, swag, bad as and dark concept
For me those, Nmixx (not the fucking Frére Jacques one LMAO), babymonster and aespa songs you mentioned are bangers especially live. I don't like the same K-pop formula, structure, predictability and safe bullshit over and over again. I appreciate the risk they take. They are probably the only reason that I even pay any attention to K-pop, doesn't help me that idols nowadays can't even sing their own songs.
i remember seeing an instagram reel about instead! by xdinary heroes, and the creator saying "metal heads would love this" or something, only to be roasted by metalheads claiming that its too "poppy"
Almost every songs you put in the list are pure examples of what original kpop is (no western style contamination)... So if you want introduce kpop to other you HAVE to start with those songs...LOVE IT OR HATE IT... The song that changed my perspective about music was Orange Caramel 'Magic girl'...
I feel like any song is fair game as long as its matches the types of music or stuff in music a person likes. Kpop has so mamy infulences and sounds that there is really something for everyone.
I appreciate this concept for a video because I will listen to playlists with kpop songs mixed in while driving with non-kpop friends, and find myself skipping some songs because I feel like they're "too kpop" for the others to get. (A recent example was "Bad Behavior" by Purple Kiss)
interestingly, i feel like i've had the most success showing my non kpop friends songs like catallena that are super campy and over the top. not sure why, but maybe because it's unique and doesn't take itself too seriously?
first time i heard WIFE was at a G IDLE concert and i loved it but i guess i'm not exactly new to KPOP lol. i only knew a few G IDLE songs but went to their show anyway based on the little i knew and was blown away by just about everything they sang
As a resident local, 0.0 by nmixx i just thought the vocals were kinda wack (i translate lyrics because with sung music i prefer to know what they're talking about) also thought the vocal delivery wasn't that inspiring either. The instrumental is fun tho fs. They have a couple bops in their discog. I'm trying to expand out as I'm just an enjoyer of music (particularly EDM and some country)
Next Level was one of my intros to K-Pop as I initially tried to get into K-Pop 3-4 years ago and I wanted to follow a newer group, I thought it was cringe but I had kind of a crush on Winter back then. I still think the song is kinda wack but Aespa has some bops in their discog like "You", "Whiplash", "Just another girl", etc.
For my fellow locals watching this trying to get into K-Pop. DO NOT WATCH THE MV'S UNLESS YOU LIKE THE SONG FIRST. Believe me, you will get overwhelmed.
fun fact about me: catallena was actually the first kpop song i ever heard (except gangnam style) because it randomly showed up in my youtube recommended years ago. it didn't get me into kpop because i didn't really even realize it was kpop, but i was very intrigued by it. still love that song. weird music is my fav
fun fact, despite k-pop not being very popular in Russia (like, yeah, some teens and YA know the most mainstream groups like bts and blackpink and there are k-pop fans, but like, it's not on par with western and russian music in terms of popularity overall), I recently heard Sheesh in one of our supermarkets which was really unexpected.
Speaking of Banana Allergy Monkey: Jin's recently released 'I'll Be There' starts off imo extremely similarly, and it coloured my perception of the whole song.... I just can't take it seriously XD
RBB was one of my first kpop songs and it was the English version. If I can survive “sippin on milk and chocolate sundaes having such a good ass time” and be like hmmm tell me more than I’m sure locals can survive the regular version 😂
Isn't Next Level literally Aespa covering a song from a Fast and Furious movie, as in not really kpop at all? Original version: ruclips.net/video/o3bSpZeH434/видео.html
Nahhh i kinda disagree with JYP. I dont even like him but his retro 80 or 90s genre(?) I really not sure what. But I feel like some people who appreciate that genre would enjoy his songs haha
Exo hates wolf from what I have read is that when they tired to make it sound bad on purpose so sm or whom ever wouldn't release it zimzalabim sounds like they're summoning a ghost to eat the landlord/lady I would add the entire discography of new jeans
The savage one is soo understandable. I did not like it one but at first and this may sound bad but I blame it all on the highnotes. My ears low-key hurt after that 🤷🏻♀️
Magnetic: aggressively listenable, absolutely no issue with the locals. It was all over local tik tok Antifragile: everyone loves a girl power anthem Moonlight Sunrise: This did the rounds in the US, very accessible. Permission To Dance: Locals understand The Village People. ASAP: Aggressively listenable and unobjectionable Plot Twist: Locals can understand Disney channel cute boys, this is not a difficult concept Unforgiven: It's a collab with one of the most important western producers in history
Wolf actively chased me away from kpop lmao 😭 I heard it about a year before getting into kpop and was literally like idk wtf this is but I wanna have nothing to do with it HAHAHAHA now I can ofc laugh about it but back then I was like nahh what kind of furry cult type shit is this-
It's funny to imagine that for some kpop fans, these songs mightve been their introduction into the genre
I mean, this or gangnam style, doesn’t matter that much lol
Zimzalabim, Next Level and The Boys by SNSD were my introduction. Next Level at first didn't click with me
mine was wolf lol
me w/ orange caramel 😭😭😭
mamamoo one of the groups i initially liked because of aya
My non-kpop friend loves 'Wife' by (G)I-DLE so much. She said that it was so funny and interesting.
ironically catallena is the song that got me into kpop
To be honest my dad doesn't like kpop in general but jams to JYP's songs!!!! I guess its because of Jyp's retro vibe or something but i think the older people from 80's would enjoy few of jyp's songs ✨️🎤🤌

Fr!!! I think sheesh is a great song to show to locals!
I laughed so hard because of the JYP explanation... 😂
it just had to be said 😗
This is making me realize that a lot of what I love about kpop is its "too much"-ness. Like I love O.O and RBB, and ITZY are my ults
i feel like we should keep the entirety of (G)I-DLE away from locals lmao
They’re all too slay, locals wouldn’t understand how iconic they are
@ i agree to this sm
I feel different- songs like Latata, Hann, Lion, Moon, Change and others are perfect for non kpoppies
@@jupiters_YT9999 i mean after tomboy, they should be hidden lol
g-idle was my introduction to kpop, something abt them is addictive
5:29 we are actually summoning the beast
For me those, Nmixx (not the fucking Frére Jacques one LMAO), babymonster and aespa songs you mentioned are bangers especially live. I don't like the same K-pop formula, structure, predictability and safe bullshit over and over again. I appreciate the risk they take.

Oh yea that’s definitely true tho
But not the young dumb stupid slander. I can’t be the only one who unironically enjoys the song
@@jhtcxkpop No, I like the song a lot since I'm a smelly Nswer, but I won't dare show it to a non-K-pop fan. It would be funny tho.
@@Legacy_2109 aaah like that. I read that differently lol
I love it, but i showed my mom ‘Young Dumb Stupid’ - ‘After Like’ & ‘Hold on tight’ and she says they were copycats 😭 lmao in a joking way ofc
I LOVE YOUNG, DUMB, STUPID 😭😭😭
I showed "Banana Allergy Monkey" to a friend who listens to Kendrick, Tyler and Kanye and he liked it 🤡
5:43 DICE INTRODUCED ME TO K-POP AND I HATED K-POP
NAAAH DICE IS SO GOOD WHAT
OMG SAME I WAS NOT THAT MUCH INTO KPOP BUT THAT SONG MADE ME STAN NMIXX AND I SLOWLY GOT MORE INTO KPOP
SAME I WAS STUPID AND HATED KPOP BUT I FOUND NMIXX AND IT'S THE BEST THING THAT HAPPENED TO ME IN MY WHOLE LIFE
OMGGG SAMEE
SAMEE OMG REAL
I LOVE YOUR STAN LIST!WOODZ,DPR IAN AND VIVIZ????GIRL GOT TASTE!
SGDJAJSGA LMAO THANKS
My dad loved happy death day on first listen and now he loves Xdinary heroes
i remember seeing an instagram reel about instead! by xdinary heroes, and the creator saying "metal heads would love this" or something, only to be roasted by metalheads claiming that its too "poppy"
@@BUTTERFLYACE mhm most metalheads are honestly very nice people tho, seems like they just wanted to complain. But who knows lol
My girlfriend who likes metal liked instead when I showed her 😭 I felt so proud of myself
Almost every songs you put in the list are pure examples of what original kpop is (no western style contamination)...
So if you want introduce kpop to other you HAVE to start with those songs...LOVE IT OR HATE IT...
The song that changed my perspective about music was Orange Caramel 'Magic girl'...
Fun fact, Orange Caramel was actually my introduction to kpop back in 2018…
TXT - Cat and Dog. My non kpop friends were extremely confused if it was a real song or not.
I feel like any song is fair game as long as its matches the types of music or stuff in music a person likes. Kpop has so mamy infulences and sounds that there is really something for everyone.
i havent heard the full song but fever sounds like something my dad (60) would listen to honestly
my brother (13) also liked guerrilla
"that side" TM I'M DYING LMAO
It’s true tho 😭
i actually love happy death day - i feel like it could work for people into emo music
Nah I’ve always loved savage, because it’s very hyper pop adjacent
Your problem is spending time with the world's most boring locals.

your comment on jyp is so real tho lol
i am the best by 2ne1 is a great introduction to kpop, but a terrible introduction to the korean LANGUAGE.
Why😭
@10v3dive "naega" sounds like the n word to people who dont know anything about the korean language. ive heard a lot ot rude jokes about it.
@funkytowncatmp4 oh oh oh right, because they repeat the "naega jeil jal naga" ah yes thank you
Nah JYP is peak kpop too 😂
I think locals would like Aya tho, idk
rbb is a song i would have no problem showing tho :D
4:59 you gotta ease them into kpop, don’t hit them with shi like this already 😭
Introduced kpop to my cousin using wife, shes now a multistan and her ult bias is soyeon.
I love the concept of this video so much😂. Makes total sense
Just say all nmixx songs, because even kpop fans don't like them let alone locals😭😭😭
7 minutes wasnt enough i need more of this vid
Nooo not chococo it's literally the best song ever 😔😔
Rbb was my first red velvet song loved it
Nah NMIXX is gonna get blasted whenever I walk into a room. 🤩
bascially anything nct
Everyone I showed banana allergy monkey to liked it because it’s a comedy/tragedy lolol
fun fact, despite k-pop not being very popular in Russia (like, yeah, some teens and YA know the most mainstream groups like bts and blackpink and there are k-pop fans, but like, it's not on par with western and russian music in terms of popularity overall), I recently heard Sheesh in one of our supermarkets which was really unexpected.

Really Bad Boy and Savage were some of my first K-Pop songs as I was late to the party.
almost all nmixx songs aren't for non kpopers, but they're all so good🥲
Isn't Next Level literally Aespa covering a song from a Fast and Furious movie, as in not really kpop at all?
Original version: ruclips.net/video/o3bSpZeH434/видео.html
Yes but they added parts
Nahhh i kinda disagree with JYP. I dont even like him but his retro 80 or 90s genre(?) I really not sure what. But I feel like some people who appreciate that genre would enjoy his songs haha
no way MonstaX - alligator is on this list, that's literally the song that got me into Kpop lmao
Kpop fans who got introduced to kpop by these songs: 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
Exo hates wolf from what I have read is that when they tired to make it sound bad on purpose so sm or whom ever wouldn't release it zimzalabim sounds like they're summoning a ghost to eat the landlord/lady I would add the entire discography of new jeans
this just added like 50 songs to my dni list
Your channel soo underated ❤❤
omg your editing style is so cute 😻
I personally won't ever show any skz song except for chk chk boom and I like it and lalala and lose my breath (skz ver)
i only ~barely~ get alligator now
but the HELLO I’M AN ALLI- ALLIGATOR-
and the jooheon and changkyun together rapverse-
@@jhtcxkpop hello i'm an alli alligator has lived in my head for far too long tbh lol. truly iconic
chococo immediately came to my mind LOL
PSY was an introduction to Kpop to a very large portion of the world… I don’t see why JYP couldn’t be one either 😂
i HATED wife when i first got into kpop earlier in the year and now I lowkey get it
What do you mean by the song was ahead of the kpoppies when it was released?
The savage one is soo understandable. I did not like it one but at first and this may sound bad but I blame it all on the highnotes. My ears low-key hurt after that 🤷🏻♀️
Yesss the last chorus' highnotes are so chaotic😭😭I still don't like savage and I don't understand why it's so hyped up
my list
sneakers - itzy
magnetic - illit
antifragile - lesserafim
moonlight sunrise - twice
earth, wind & fire - boynextdoor
wave - ateez

i feel like a lot of locals would love magnetic 😭
Touch????
Magnetic: aggressively listenable, absolutely no issue with the locals. It was all over local tik tok
Antifragile: everyone loves a girl power anthem
Moonlight Sunrise: This did the rounds in the US, very accessible.
Permission To Dance: Locals understand The Village People.
ASAP: Aggressively listenable and unobjectionable
Plot Twist: Locals can understand Disney channel cute boys, this is not a difficult concept
Unforgiven: It's a collab with one of the most important western producers in history
i guess op has a thing with nmixx lol
It's just that kpop fans don't get their songs, let alone non kpop fans!!
omg hiiii
What's wrong with sheesh😭
Wolf actively chased me away from kpop lmao 😭 I heard it about a year before getting into kpop and was literally like idk wtf this is but I wanna have nothing to do with it HAHAHAHA
now I can ofc laugh about it but back then I was like nahh what kind of furry cult type shit is this-
JYP will always be a great introductory artist into kpop! change my mind
