True but I was more talking about idols who are both based in another country and not of korean nationality and releasing songs mostly in another language, despite being a part of a kpop group (or formerly a part).
Like Tiffany is American and now she's become based there and releasing English songs, though she started with releasing Korean solos. And many Chinese kpop idols have become based in China releasing C-pop
I'm aware but you'll see Kpop stans posting even those releases since fans tend to follow their faves career which is different to the other International artists which need to be viewed as different fanbases entirely.

Well probably just going to come down to principle as I don't think anyone would be bothered by them as they'd still be able to be traded but the cards team like to be consistent so I could see them ending up in the International deck.

yeah, ig we'll see. Idols like lisa and bambam, while not korean ended up becoming kpop soloists anyways but for other foreign members of kpop groups their solos were different so it all comes down to their decision
I was wondering abt that too. Whether soloists who are or were members of kpop groups and have cards as part of kpop group sets but released solo music based in another country (usually usa or china) and in a language other than korean would be in the korean section or international
It's a interesting topic as on the one hand Korean artists releasing in other languages is a gray area of its own like we get songs nearly all in English released in Korea but as well releasing in Japan, China or the US US also viewed as a normal thing to do.

If AleXa counts as kpop, why not those who originally started their career in korea even if they expanded their solo careers beyond to international? My 0.02$ worth of observation is only Fei n Jia who dint promote/remain/return to korea as solos might be counted as international/c-ent now.
Wasnt Yuqi in China when her solo debut released i think, so it might hv been doubt whether her solo counts? If so, instead of moving her we could include Jackson, The8 n others who solo debuted while active members of k-idol grps/korea based. Im not very familiar with Luhan or other non-stan/non gg foreign born kpop idols tho. Except for Tiffany who debuted solo while still active in SNSD, but her solo releases after leaving SM sales sunk, but did sell in korea.
(I think sadly Fei/Jia might not get votes to be included as solo cards so its a moot point whether they're c-ent/international/kpop at this point). Maybe a poll of where to place 'em or a ruling if an idol has cards in a kpop grp, then solo cards would automatically go to korean section, just my thinking out loud tho. Not sure whether Nako/Sakura or other foreign idols like frex Tzuyu, Shuhua, would debut solo in Jpn/Taiwan n how it affects solo cards. I think other than Nako/Sakura tho it wont be issue until iv stopped collecting cards here.
Im neutral abt those idols im not collecting, as long as Yuqi isnt moved n Tiffany Young hopefully isnt placed in international cards; since she's hybrid kpop/western artist-consistency with Yuqi solo cards ig is wat im hoping for(as well as no re-zoning for Yuqi).
VIVIZ, Yuju, IVE mostly all i can think of rn, oh ONEWE, NELL if they count, Baek Yerin, 15&, Jamie (Park Jimin), Lee Youngji, Tiffany Young, Hyoyeon, Yuri (SNSD), YoonA, Sooyoung(SNSD), Seohyun (srry Sunny why oh why Sunny?).

I believe Yuqis solo debut is a Korean release so she'd still count as Kpop as far as I'm aware and as for Tiffany I think it'd only be fair for it to be based on their debut if there is a split so Tiffany would still be Kpop with that since I Just Wanna Dance was her solo debut.

Yeah exactly.
That's why I mentioned Tiffany in particular originally debuted solo with kpop and in Korea, but is now based in America and releasing English songs
I'm not particularly aware of non-Chinese foreign kpop idols originally debuting solo in their country of origin so I couldn't speak much abt it

I think it's mostly Chinese idols that create an issue with how to consider them since they tend to go and promote in their home country as it's more lucrative with some of them never come back like Kyulkyung and the WJSN girls

Kyulkyung would be different since Pristin disbanded, but the WJSN girls are up in the air. Did all of them release solo music in China? I thought they mostly acted and went on shows. I'd prefer them to comeback to WJSN ofc, but China seems more lucrative
