Hello everyone! Well, I am really into Jrock. But i want to expand my musical horizons. So i was wondering, what are some good Korean artists/bands? I usually like rock or pop. No rap or country? <-- do they have country? lol. Thank you! ^^

Well, I'm not that huge of a fan of KR music 'cause I can't really understand it, but my crush sends me some and I really like it. XD
Zhang Ri Yin & Junsu - Timeless.
Kiss - Because I'm a Girl.

The thing you need to know about Kpop artists is that they don't like sticking to one genre of music. Singers like Se7en and Bi might do almost all ballads on one album then they'll shift towards hip-hop or R&B or even rock in some cases.... with that in mind you should check out:

Dong Bang Shin Ki
Se7en
Kang Ta
Bi

These are hip hop/rap mostly:
MC Mong
Jung woo Hyuk
SGwannabe
Big Bang
Stony Skunk

recently I'm hooked with korean music and entertainment.

Artists/Bands I recommend (in no order):
Chae Yeon
Shinhwa
Super Junior
Dong Bang Shin Ki
Lee Seung Gi
H.O.T.
G.O.D (and their solo stuff)
TURBO
Kim Jong Kook
FLY TO THE SKY

All those are the people I currently listening to. =D

I'm a huge fan of Dong Bang Shin Ki.
I've listened to a little Se7en but right now my playlist is just DBSK DBSK DBSK.
I'll expand to other K-pop bands and singers later, but right now I'm enjoying DBSK too much to stop. :3

Stony Skunk does some decent rap.

Don't know any K-Rock, but for K-Pop You should definately try Se7en.
YouTube - Se7en - Passion

R&B and HipHop are really popular and i haven't heard much of K-rock. Park Hye Kyoung kind of reminds me of Yui, so you might want to try her music.

yugidogz · #15 (**permalink**) 05-19-2007, 07:25 AM

Bi (Rain) is my favorite right now. Hands down. He's amazing.... and Se7en!

Hell yeah XD I hope he comes over to S.F. or San Jose this year, I REALLY want to see him o.o;;

CHERRY FILTER? omg.. I think I saw one of their videos a LONG time ago. Is there one where they're all sitting on a couch watching tv then jump off and start playing music or something? Not sure about what happens after they get off the couch, actually, but does that sound familiar at all...?
