Has any K-Pop content you seen later become lost media? (1 Viewer)

[snsd2beg]

I used to stan this band called Marmello who debuted in 2017.



They posted their MVs as well as many covers on their YouTube channel. I was especially fond of their covers and watched them constantly.
Unfortunately, when they disbanded in 2019, their channel was wiped and all their other social medias were deleted, including their website, Instagram, Facebook, and V-Live (rip V-Live).
Most, if not all of their MVs are still available through uploads on other channels, but the covers were not archived.
I remember scouring the internet trying to find fan reuploads. I've found some incomplete clips on Instagram, but that's all I've recovered so far. I doubt I'll be able to find them all in full. I do still have some hope, as two of the posts contain the YouTube video urls and I know of a program that has found previously deleted videos. I've thought about asking the uploaders if they have a copy of the fulls, but most of them are no longer active.
It's also hard to look for content due to their name being so close to marshmallow.
I just wish I could see Gaeun's cover of "Little Lion Man" again.



I was curious if anyone here has experienced something similar.​

I don't have anything of substance aside from the VIXX parallel MV, but you can find reuploads of that online

That's so unfortunate, i'm so sorry
Something that is similar tho is Namie Amuro deleting her music after her retirement. Idk why it happened....
I can't find her songs on spoityf or youtube from official channels, it's all uploads again. And she was a very much loved and respected singer, winning artist of the year awards left and right. I just have no idea why they took her music off the internet. Only official songs from her remaining are osts for anime or shows ,and collabs featuring other ppl.

Not K-pop related, but an artist I liked called Nussy Andrews deleted all of her older music bc of dysphoria reasons and the only archive of my fav song of hers is a SoundCloud upload of a character playlist with annoying background noise thrown in

Back in the day, I'd visit korean forums and blogs to get Block B content such as pictures or behind the scene videos you usually wouldn't find elsewhere and now if you go to those same websites everything is pretty much gone. That's why, if you can, archive everything if you really love and cherish a group.

I wonder why some of them decide to wipe everything out or maybe they got shut down?

It could be blogger/blogspot service thing. I just looked at another older site from them and it looks like more media links are dead than before

 

[magali]

never seen some myself before becoming lost media, otherwise i would never shut up about it

There are some covers on Yuna's and Hyuna's YouTube channel. I post a video, so you can find the channel. I can't post the channel link for some reason (maybe because of the Korean letters? Idk).

Thank you! I don't think any of these were on the group channel, but it's great to find other covers from them <3
