Now, I´m uncultured, an open book, but I´m curious whether you that listen to both have noticed any huge differences? I mean,there obviously must be a lot of o them as the two countries are so different. But which are they?
I have noticed that especially with girl groups (as I haven´t listened to any Jpop / jindie boy groups), they both play the "girlie, cute, youthful" card but a little differently.
Jpop girl groups always seem to wear some kind of uniforms, more or less. (I used google for this)
skirts, dresses, cute, cute, cute, cute
To me the obsession with cuteness is even bigger than in Korea, but maybe it´s just my interpretation. Again, I´m a mere viewer. I haven´t got deeply into it.
though I kind of like these (a girl group named FAKY):
I wonder whether Jpop is more popular in Asia in general? I know they have fans everywhere, but honestly the kpop industry is just huge. Is Jpop more popular in Asia?
What are the differences that you, people who listen to both genres and know a ton about the two, noticed? Which one do you prefer? and why?
