Part 2 is out !

Y'all can't forget how stray kids Christmas evel was so popular on tiktok and people had no idea that it was made by kpop 💀

my brother hates kpop but loves almost all of ateez’s discography 💀💀

One moment i will NEVER forget is that one time in school, during my athletics class, i heard a girl singing Dice or as she called it, “Big Wave” and i straight up told her it was kpop. The look or disgust and horror on her face was so over exaggerated over fucking HILARIOUS. 💀

the way tiktok has made it impossible to not know kpop is just scary

Ngl, people who don't like kpop have listened to over half of blackpinks discography

in every way, no one can leave earth without having heard a single second of a kpop song its always there lol

Fifty Fifty had so much impact, the whole situation is so sad 😭

My non-kPoP Stan friends were singing super shy the other day and then I asked them “do you like newjeans/kPop?” And they said “no what’s that”

the fact that there’s more songs to add to this list shows how popular kpop is😭😭

The urge to send this to my "friend" who claims that he never listens to kpop and the songs that he has heard make his, and I quote "Braincells die".

You can't walk out of a Popular bookstore in Singapore without having listened to Twice

this girl in my class who CLAIMS she never listens to k-pop was singing dynamite 💀

funny Story: Gangnam Style came out and I hated it with such a passion and thought I would never like kpop 2NE1's I am the best showed me how diverse kpop can be and I started to love them and SNSD

literally hello bitches by CL might be one of the most "oh i didn't know that was kpop" songs EVER. i heard that song EVERYWHERE before i got into kpop lol

3:45 My teacher let us do whatever we wanted during gym class, and I remember one time I ended up dancing a youtube uploaded just dance to FANCY

I thought my first exposure to Kpop was through Blackpink’s debut in 2016, but no. It was 100% Gangnam Style. My sister also refused to believe that Colors by Stella Jang and Cupid (the Twin version) were Kpop, but they are :)

Some people only dislike kpop because they are embarrassed to like it or racist. Cause my husband will be like “this is a nice song!” Until I tell him “YEAH ITS KPOP😊” then suddenly he goes “nvm turn this shit off” like it’s really annoying when people are like that.

In 2016 I "found out" about kpop and I was like "wtf is that and how come no one knows about it till now?! Then, I found out Miss A was kpop and I knew them since 2012. It seems like I was so young that everything sounded english for me (cause english is not my native language)

i had heard christmas evel every holiday season since it came out and didn't know it was kpop until this year when i got into kpop😭

The mute gangnam style bc of copyright is so real

Let us also not forget when the whole world danced to the legendary Gangnam Style by Psy

I would add Gee by SNSD Pop by Nayeon Drunk-dazed by Enhypen Zoom by Jessi Butter by BTS Christmas evel by Stray kids Ring ding dong by SHINee Nilili Mambo (the part “bye guys, hi ladies MWA”) by BlockB Boca by Dreamcatcher Rover by Kai Fever (I think it went really viral) by Enhypen Pretty savage (instrumental) by Blackpink Russian Roulette by Red Velvet Fast Forward by Jeon somi Polaroid love by Enhypen Love shot by EXO Love Scenario by iKon Bouncy by Ateez After school by Weeekly Just right by Got7 Gods menu by Stray kids Bad boy by Red velvet Likey by Twice What is love by Twice Replay by SHINee Growl by EXO Very Nice by SEVENTEEN Ditto by Newjeans Don’t wanna cry by SEVENTEEN

Maria is also a good example. It was extremely popular on tiktok when it came out

"bye guys, hi ladies" - nanlili mambo by block b. Literally every fandom edit of 2023.

and one you cant forget, CHRISTMAS EVEL!!! everyone was using it last year! like omg, skz needs recognition.😭😭

9:49 I'm so mad that you cut the intro here YOU LITERALLY KILLED THE VIBE 😔

Some year sooner, i heard for the first time “wrap me in plastic”, “Gangnam style” and “colour”. I had NO IDEA that this was kpop. I used to hate kpop with all my heart cuz people keep saying that this was some “kids boppy” song… Now i’m a kpop lover and I rly want to thanks my older sister that said that all these song was kpop and that get me into kpop. My friend was thinking that too but now my bestie keeps talking about bts and blackpink. I introduced them to her cuz they are the “Kpop stan starter pack” but now I think she’s ready to know more about it!

Hellevator, Drunk Dazed, and Fever are also very commonly used as intros or just audios for Tik tok/ YT shorts

I genuinely thought Fantastic Baby was a Black Eyed Peas song for years

2NE1 indeed made history.

a person in one of my classes were saying “i hate kpop, kpop sucks and their songs are literally all so bad” when they were literally singing cupid ( fiftyfifty ) and i think it was 3d and seven (jungkook ) edit: and dreamers-

Funny story: this girl in my health class was sitting next to me and heard tis song. She goes, "The girl singing is really good!" It was Jimin.

The fact most of these song are that I first heard for the 1st before I started stanning any group. And first ever songs was Gangnam style, I bet 99% of the people's 1st kpop was this

I would add Try Again by Jaehyun, I've seen many non-kpop fans say that they listen to it even though they don't listen to kpop.

After so many youtube shorts I will never be able to hear Red Velvet's Psycho intro the same way ever again

3 years ago, I’ve heard blackpink’s how you like that, bts dynamite and boy with luv, and 2 years ago I heard skz’ Christmas EveL and lisa’ money, and never knew they were kpop. But the shock I got when I knew Christmas evel is a kpop song and specifically from skz is unforgettable cuz at that time I used to hate kpop so much, I used to dance to it and sing it all day + it was all over tiktok

Ur not human if you’ve NEVER heard Gangnam style at least once in ur life

Yo sooo glad you showed Shaun -way back home some love. I still think he’s highly under appreciated

There's also 'bye guys, hi ladies' by blockb, and the end of utopia by ateez!

For people who are curious, muted audio is Gangnam style.

I seriously don’t know why some people don’t like K-pop like gurl, it’s a MASTERPIECE🤭

when u said "I cant hear this intro normally" in psysho, I could relate bcz like hyunjin and 3 more boys cover was fire.

My first k pop song was in 2013 “I got a boy” by girls generation 😭 then I discovered 2ne1 and was a huge huge fan until they disbanded :(

Even as an American there is a lot of K-pop here in mall stores, random places/stores, people listening to it, radio sometimes, and even advertising I’ve seen so many different ads that use Blackpink songs it’s crazy so yeah even if you don’t want to you’ll stumble across it

Nobody by Wonder Girls was my introduction to kpop, tho I didn’t know it was kpop back then. The song was freaking massive in my country, everyone knew the dance

Wrap me in plastic was originally NOT K-pop, and I heard it before the mono land version came out, so… most people got s valid point there + it was alr big in the animation, art, Gacha edit communities sooo

When I got into kpop in 2014 i thought I was completely new to it. Then I realized that I had mistaken wonder girl's 'nobody' for motown...

5:30 "stan stray kids for better life" MY LIFE IS REALLY BETTER NOW. STAY ERA IS MY BEST ERA

I'd thought "Fake Love" was my first KPop song Before realizing that "Wrap Me In Plastic" and "Gangnam Style" were KPop

For me, i got to k Pop through blackpink, but before them, i listened to ganam style, but at that time, i didn't know it was a k pop song.

THE NMIXX CHANGE UP LETS GO IN DICE, GOT SO POPULAR IN MY CLASS AND THEY CALL IT BIG WAVE BIG WAVE, AND THEY SAY IM A KPOP FREAK BUT ITS LITERALLY KPOP.

I remember listening to Gangnam Style for the first time, and thinking "wow, this is so cool that he incorporates his Korean culture into a song with English in it as well. Like I thought this was the coolest thing ever. Then I heard some Blackpink songs, and I was OMG, they do it too, and thats when I actually figured out what K-pop was as a genera lol.

I couldn't hear gangnam style

I used to listen to so much kpop and just didnt realise, and i only realised when i started stanning that all these songs were kpop songs 💀

Honestly, “Nobody” by The Wonder Girls was my introduction to Kpop because they played the English version at every Filipino party. I had no clue it was a Kpop song until not long ago!! However, of course that was very shortly followed by my OBSESSION with the juggernaut song “Gee” by the artist formerly known as Girls’ Generation. That song had a chokehold on me for such a long time.

Literally whole yg family 😂

"Ive never listened to ateez" YES YOU DID. (utopia 3:44)

i was an gacha kid when i was younger so IMAGINE the SHOCK that was on my face when i found out Anti-Romantic was from one of my Ult Groups, TXT!! and i have this one girl in my class who sang to Dice(the Big Wave part) and then some 8th graders who sang to Cupid on the bus. i’ll never forget that

*Love Scenario has left the chat.*

I have heard Life Is Too Short by Aespa many times in the food court in a mall.

I would add Dar+ling by seventeen 💕

Should have included Love Scenario, my brother says he hates kpop but listens to that song lol

Already wrote too much BUT, “money” was also a song i didn’t realize it’s kpop. But later i finally got to this part

I know a group of extreme kpop hating trolls (not all kpop haters are trolls) and I they literally love gangman style 😂

My introduction to kpop was actually in grade 6, the song was Monster by Big Bang

I get into kpop in 2019 when i heard "boy with luv" 😭

my personal addition to this list has got to be maria by hwasa. seriously i had no cluee

I’ve been a K-pop fan since early 2000. lol I’ve heard all these songs.

Queencard caption SO TRUE I Burn was the first music I listened to this year

Just dance introduced me to a lot of kpop before I really got into it, I remember dancing to bubble pop by hyuna with my friends 😂

darari,dumb dumb should be added as well

my first k-pop song was Big Bang- Fantastic Baby and at that time i didn´t know it was k-pop 😅 Through TikTok, most people will have heard k-pop or used the sounds without knowing that it is kpop. Like Christmas Evel or Jessi- Zoom and so much more

I swear to God I'm sending this to my whole school. They make fun of me for kpop but then listen to ALL OF THESE tracks

I'm so glad that I'm not the only one who can't hear the intro of Psycho the same. That tiktok girl must be famous now.

I would also add Up & Down by EXID, I heard the song many times long before I become interested in kpop and legit thought the lyrics were "we are, we we are" 😂

I remember back in 2018 I was in the Philippines and my cousins started playing momoland on the tv and it was a really good song. I started listening to it without ever knowing it was K-pop. Now I’m a K-pop fan of 2 years :) (started in October of 2022 up until right now)

Another one for sure is Star by Loona! I hear it at stores ALL the time and it's been a while since it came out

i just remembered after school by weeekly too

Mine was super junior mr simple on radio disney even before gangnam style

I remember kokobop challenge filled my feed. And my TikTok fyp with "Preppy girls hate kpop but doing Better things challenge"

I didn’t even know kpop in 2020 in 2021 I listened to blackpink and in 2022 I listened to (g)-idle and now I Stan half of the kpop industry I just love their songs now kpop songs are in my head

Don't forget nobody by wonder girls

Nah once when the boys played with the class computer they played music and decided to play broken melodies and candy by nct dream and the way my friends and my head turns immediately

Naurr way !!! You stole us the gorgeus GG in snsd the boys intro

10:05 ICONIC shoulder dance

i was convinced that Gangnam style was my first exposure to Kpop, until i realized that through out childhood i was singing nobody by wonder girls and sorry sorry by super junior 😭😭

WHATTTTT ANTI ROMANTIC IS TXT?! I WAS TODAY YEARS OLD WHSN I LEARNED OMG. This is hilarious because I used to hate kpop and then I fell in love with the song Omg by New jeans and stopped being dumb and gave kpop a chance and now I have a playlist with almost 300 kpop songs and am a huge stay/moa. I loved the anti romantic meme when I "hated" kpop so this is so funny to me. EDIT: AND THE VIRAL COLORS AUDIO AND WAY BACK HOME?! MY LIFE FEELS LIKE A LIE WHATTTT

I was introduced to kpop in 2020

I BURN is def one of the best kpop albums for sure! Great vid! The Hann (Alone in winter) - HWAA combo is UNREAL

Last year everyone in my class was singing the twin version of Cupid and I straight up told everyone it was K-pop and they all stared at me with confusion. Best moment of my life.

Also replay by shinee it literally took my soul long to realize that it was a K-pop song

i would like to add, that after i found "This Love" by shinhwa i had realised that i vividly remembered listening to it as a kid, although i thought it was before i had ever heard Gangnam style

girl i love how you add "stan stray kids for a better life" soo truee 😂😂❤❤

first Kpop song for me was dynamite, but I got into Kpop when I hear feel special by twice and kick it by nct 127 and ive been into it since

Before I became a fan of KPop, the only KPop song I heard and knew. Was gangnam style back in what? 2012 or something in my final year of school. After becoming a fan really the only ones that seemed to come up on UK radio was twice blackpink itzy and red velvet. We almost never (if ever) get boy groups songs on our radio so I can honestly say I had never listened to a full BTS song until, I think it was butter? Came out. Before becoming a KPop fan I stayed to my own music playlists (heavy metal, alternate rock, Christina rock stuff like that) and never really branched out until, and I remember it to this date, it was a Friday after work in 2020 (quite literally 7 days before the UK was thrown into lockdown) and a buddy of mine made me listen to SKZ gods menu, haven’t looked back since.

I ticked my sister who doesn't like kpop I asked her do you like these song she said yes and I told her they are kpop and reaction😂

one time i thought newjeans was a french band when i heard omg and ditto 💀💀💀

Most of these songs i used to listen to them when I was a kid. Now I remember them again.
