The main purpose of this video is to provide a 'quick overview' or 'summary' of what(who) happened in Kpop overtime. It's focus is to quickly skim through big events, groups, and some rough context of Kpop history, rather than to specifically explain the aspects/traits of Kpop or achievements of particular groups. Any additional info that you would like to provide is more than welcomed in the comments. Any fan-war related behavior or comments will be deleted.

+edit)
1. 0:39 / 00:59 this is an incorrect map that states 'Sea of Japan'. The correct name is 'East Sea'.
1. 0:44 Korea was divided even before the war by the Soviet Union and the US. The Cold War had already began and the Korean war was a 'period(full stop)' that ultimately divided the country into today's North and South Korea.
2. 16:40 Red Velvet was the first Kpop idol to perform in Pyeongyang among the 2-3rd gen of Kpop. 1st: Sechskies, Fin.K.L / 2nd: Shinhwa, Baby Vox

So the real question is How old is JYP?! This man hasn’t aged since the 90s I’m starting to think he must be a vampire or some type of immortal being.

“Some think Bts is unpretty” Showing the article abt V’s MOST HANDSOME MAN IN THE WORLD.good

[julia-fwlx]

"bts is probably bigger than all of kpop" bro idek why but that gave me goosebumps *cries in proud*

[sollyrose]

The fact that Seo Taiji and BTS did a whole concert together is legend...

[yuzurucorner]

Seo taiji walked SO KPOP COULD RUN.

Seo taiji single handedly abolished pre - censorship in music in korea. For those who didn't know

[reitokira]

Deep down, we all knew he would mention BTS at the end

[nandinipriyadarshinijana]

The fact that Seo Taiji suddenly came in 2017 and declared BTS as his rightful successors itself says a lot. BTS definitely changed a lot of perspectives in the way how songs are written so that everyone can connect to them. I am just so proud of BTS
Anyways 7Fates CHAKHO OST is coming soon :)

*"there is one group that needs a thorough separate section in kpop history. And it is... BTS"*
PERIODT.

[alyxa_a]

Why is it so satisfying hearing about BTS' achivements? I'm just so proud of them

[emilyparker]

I got goosebumps when Mic drop came and there was B T S.
The fact that Seo Tajji chose BTS to remake his song Come Back Home even before BTS was this huge shows that he saw potential. BTS were approved by the man who started the whole revolution.
Shows that BTS’s success wasn’t any accident, but they deserved it. Each of the members are highly qualified making them a group way powerful than kpop could have imagined.
A group that spoke about topics kpop never dared to touch back then.
BTS have inspired many groups since and now we see groups who talk about the society n issues, we got groups who make their own universe... it’s wonderful.
Stream D-2!!

*Seo Taiji passing the torch to BTS together at his 25TH Anniversary Concert > both wrote about social issues since teens w/hip-hop base Together:"ComeBackHome"=🔥🔥*

[multiwrecked]

"Kinda ironic how Seo Taiji's independent, socially aware and self-made music is the foundation of the now shallow mass-produced idol industry. I'm glad he could see that BTS are one of the few who are branded as idol groups that are actually continuing his legacy, albeit in their own way." from when Seo taiji invited BTS to his 25th anniversary concert

Alternate title : David rapping for 21 minutes straight

[eliciap]

[nasreenakhtar]

When he said BTS needs a separarte section in kpop....dude i had the biggest goosebumps of my whole life😲

[moonflower]

"FINALLY THERE IS ONE GROUP THAT NEEDS A THOROUGH SEPERATE SECTION IN KPOP HISTORY AND IT IS BTS" that gave me chills!

[Ig___ig]

"It's not an overstatement to say that BTS is probably bigger than all of kpop combined" THAT'S SO SEXY
