5SOS is a four-member pop-rock band from Australia. They debuted in 2011, but didn't gain international recognition until 2012 when they opened for One Direction. Their sound was originally pop, comparable to 1D and the Jonas Brothers. But they soon created a more rock sound with their second album, and are considered to be pop-rock. 5SOS, despite their international popularity, is still known as “the biggest band nobody’s ever heard of.”

HAZE: 9/10
This song is just sooooo good! I really like songs like this, happy and summery.

You don't go to parties: 10/10 😭
This song is everything, you can feel the emotion, it's just everything

Caramel: 9/10
I don't know which is my favorite, I chose these all without knowing them but got bops, this song is really really good!

@frocho
Old Me: I pretty much agree with what @Pyxidis said on this one. I also loved the instrumentals and it definitely hit hard and had a lot of emotion that goes with it. I haven't heard this song before but I was pretty pleased by it. I feel like the song conveys a good message and is able to help listeners relate to it. The vocals were really good and the lyrics were great as well! In the end, this song was really enjoyable and good! I was very pleased with it! <3

Bad Omens: This is another one of their songs where the lyrics were really good. The song specifies two "bad omens" that he should end the romance: His lover loves somebody else and keeps leaving him for her other man. When he kisses her, she just stares at the ceiling. I feel like they conveyed this message well throughout the song with the lyrics. Their vocals were really good here once again as well and they had good harmony together. The instrumentals here were good here once again and I do like the instrumentals in this song better compared to "Old Me". Even though this song is kind of sad, it doesn't really sound like that if you get what I mean. It doesn't sound very joyful of course but it didn't sound very sad or depressing which was nice because most sad songs are like that so it was good to hear something new. In the end, I really enjoyed this song and I think it was better than "Old Me" in terms of vocals and instrumentals but "Old Me" had more better and meaningful lyrics.

Emotions: To be honest, this was my least favorite out of all of them. I'm not sure what the message of the song was exactly about so that probably could have been conveyed better somehow. The vocals were still good but I do feel like the instrumentals were lacking. It just didn't have the same feeling compared to "Old Me" and "Bad Omens". They still sounded in harmony though and the song was still pretty good. In conclusion, this song was still enjoyable and pleasing but I do feel like there was room for improvement when it comes to the lyrics and instrumentals of the song. It was still really good though! <3

@Pyxidis
Complete mess: I like the soft tones of this one. It is so calming until I looked at the lyrics. “I learned my lesson when I felt you slip away” - this lyric especially hits hard cause we don’t realize what we have until its gone. This was the first time I heard this but I am so adding this to my playlist. I like the comparison of how the person the song is about makes them complete but also sends them into a complete mess.

Old me: This one is one I already knew but it hits hard. This one is about how the old them made a lot mistakes but it has helped them learn lessons and become the person they are today. The old them showed them a lot of things and they admit to doing things they shouldn’t have - this hits a personal nerve. “I’m constantly reminded of all the compromises by the people from my past who have a hard time letting go” - this line struck a nerve. As for the composition of the song, I love the instrumentals.

Carousel: This was another new song for me as I never got around to checking out their 2022 album huge regret. As for this song, another one with deep lyrics. This seems to be a trend in their songs I have noticed. This one compares their life to a circus/carnival. The singer (I think Luke in this case, but correct me if I’m wrong) says he feels like a tiger in the circus ring, and ge also says that his life is like a carousel spinning around. I assume this means that he feels like he is not in control of his life - which I can relate to. This is another one that I am adding to my playlist.

It doesn’t say anywhere you have to tho, it looks like events team makes it
From the thread:
"Have You Met ____?" is an event where users who are stans of lesser known artists get the opportunity to promote their favorite artists for a whole 2 weeks on KpopSource. This promotion would not only include a banner on the main page of the site, but also a dedicated thread to the artists made by an events member to lay out all the basic information of your artist along with a playlist (for various platforms) and other great things!
Sounds amazing, right? The best part of this: this will be a routine event (similar to UOTM) and will be happening every two weeks with new artists displayed constantly on KS!


1. In order to be considered for your artist's promotion, you will need to make a thread in the K-Chill section. This would be an appreciation thread about your artist with some basic information (this does not have to be extensive), unique reasons why other people should stan your artist, and any other things that you feel like would be appropriate. I want to highlight this: this is a competition in the end, thus, the prettier, more organized, and more interesting the thread is, the higher is the chance of winning.

2. Fill out this Form below to submit your nomination:
Username:
Artist:
Link to thread:
Initial Thread or Repeat submission?

Please send this to the google sheets form by clicking here.

Afterwards, the Events team will sit down and evaluate all of the submissions and pick a winner for the next promotion period based on the quality of the thread and presentation of their artist!
However, as you can see by the last option: in the case that you do not win this promotion period, your thread can be reentered at a later time for another chance to win the promotion. We added this option as we have realized that those who put extensive work into their threads may be disappointed by having to start over. Thus, you can simply reenter your thread again later if you choose to not redo your thread.

I also want to stress that all google forms submission will be deleted once a winner has been presented. Thus, it's essential that you either submit or resubmit your form if you want to be nominated for the next promotion period.

1. A custom banner made by the Graphics team that will be displaced on the front page of the site.
2. This banner will be linked to an informational thread that will be written by an Events team member with a brief introduction of the artist, a mention of the latest comeback and their debut (with MV's embedded into the thread), and a link to the artist thread if available.
3. Playlists will be made with the debut song, comeback songs, and recommended b-sides. This will be prepared in Spotify and YouTube formats which will also be linked in the thread!
4. Lastly, your appreciation thread will be linked as well!

Also, as a new addition, you will also be able to win prices for yourself! That is,
if you participate in the event and win, you will have the choice to either win 250 points (essentially 5 entries to the legendary card raffle) or get a random rare card, along with the other things that were previously promised!

In order for you get your price, we simply ask that you either request your random rare card in the cards request thread or DM me (@Panda) to ask for your 250 points!

The request in the request thread card would look like this:

Username: Panda
Reason: Have You Met Event Winner


The cards team is already aware of this and I will verify with them on who the winner is!

Doesn’t she get the points anyway and choice of gif badge or rare with the update?
So based on the feedback that we received, we decided to do 2 changes to the event to see if they will help make the event more interesting:
1. from now on, the choices of the prices will be either to receive: 250 points and a random rare card or 250 points and a gif badge
2. the event will now be open to all international artists

We hope that this will be great additions to the event! Let us know if you have any questions below!
