A lot of people seem to think I blog about Korean pop because I'm
some kind of hater. Strange as it may seem, I actually like Korean pop
music, and that's why I write about it. Of course this obvious fact
escapes many fuckheaded people and I have to bear the slings and arrows
of those who think I'm only here to knock k-pop down a peg, just because
I didn't write a glowing review of the latest
written-while-waiting-in-the-urinal-queue trashy k-ballad from their
fave. However there's another type of hater that I also come across,
less-often discussed on k-pop bogs - the people who already hate k-pop
on a more general level and say that "I shouldn't be listening to
that". You all know the type, because you've all had the same
conversation with these music snobs that I've had:
In
this blog I'm going to collect some of the most often-heard objections
to k-pop and come up with some sensible, rational non-fangirly replies
that you can use at your leisure to win arguments, influence people, or
just make everyone who is giving you problems shut the fuck up for a
change! Welcome to the Kpopalypse Defence League!
