If you like BTS, you should try listening to TXT. The 4th gen whimsical group runs under the same label as Bangtan and have shared producers on several tracks. BTS leader and rapper RM has even been credited as a writer on TXT’s I know I love You. You can catch their next performance on NYE at 2022 Weverse Con.

Let me introduce you to NCT! One the the largest K-pop groups in the world, NCT features 23 members as of April 2021, but they do not perform all together. The group is divided into subunits NCT127, NCT U, NCT Dream, and WayV. It may be a bit confusing at the beginning, but once you deep dive into their powerful songs and outstanding videos, you’ll become an NCTzen.

A great girl group to help you move is Twice! TWICE's melodic tunes and mix of different styles make them one of the most addictive South Korean acts to see. With a sound as sparkly as their personalities, the nine queens of the bubblegum style were set for fame from their debut in 2015.

æspa debuted in 2020 and have released experimental pop bangers performed with their AI personas. At the end of 2020, the group released their debut single, "Black Mamba.” Which broke the record for the highest viewed debut video for a K-pop group in 24 hours, a truly impressive feat.

Its not all pop though! It has been said Day6 cannot make a bad song like they physically can't. It's not typical K-pop, but more rock-leaning, and they play their own instruments and compose their own songs!
