K-Pop fans

Published June 28, 2019

I WOULD like to know how many people in Pakistan enjoy listening to K-Pop – Korean Pop. I feel like the strange kid in school when I talk about BTS and other K-Pop bands and no one knows what I am talking about.

For those of you who don’t know – K-Pop is a genre of pop music from South Korea. Many people who listen to K-Pop also enjoy Korean dramas. This form of music can be traced back to the 1990s and early 2000s but I got interested after listening to Psy’s Gangnam Style.
