JPOP as well as KPOP

I've recently gotten into jpop through my friends. I actually really love a lot of the jpop music, especially the ones that manage to be really different. My favorite artists as of now are Ayaka and Utada Hikaru~ What are some of yours?

Also being so familiar with kpop, some singers I would recommend are Gummy/Gummi/Gumy and Lyn, though they aren't what one would consider "standard" kpop. Some other kpop singers that other people would recommend?

what das Jpop stand for btw what does it mean never heard of it.. same with kpop...

Isn't Jpop just japanese pop music and Kpop Korean pop music? Anyway, for japanese pop music, I like Utada Hikaru also and Ai Otsuka. Kinki Kids and Dragon Ash are also good. Korean pop music I don't follow but I do like listening to them.

Hmm I like Japanese pop music then Korean. . .
I'm not used to the Korean

Well, since I'm Korean, I know more singers than you guys, I guess.
I like Lyn also, but never heard of Gummy/Gummi/Gumy. For j-pop, I like utada Hikaru also and I like L'arc En Ciel.

A must-hear Jpop band is DBSK. they have some reali nice music, and they're so cute. search Banjun Theatre DBSK on Youtube for a good laugh and to check these guys out. i don't think they sing in the show, but you can check out their acting skills.

Oh my gosh! i luv korean POP, I'm not korean but i kust luv everything about korean! i luv to be korean^^ ahaha (my fav singer is Chae Yeon, you guys should lcheckout her newest album!_)

I like Utada Hikaru and Ai Otsuka. I don't really like many Jpop Idol Groups, but I really like Arashi and Kat-tun, mostly Arashi. And for Kpop, I like DBSK, Super Junior, and Younha. But I mostly listen to Jrock and alternative rock.

hmmm..
for nowadays im into kpop...
maybe becoz i watch too many korean reality show in utube..

i love epik high, super junior and many else..
cant think of anythin else rite now...

ooowww same here. I'm finally just getting into Asian international music. I don't really know any good ones...all the ones I like are OLD stuff. Jpop I like Utada Hikaru, Ayumi Hamasaki...umm Jrock: Miyavi, Gackt, An cafe, Dir en grey, Alice Nine...ummm kpop I like Bi-Rain, Se7en, Hyori Lee, DBSK, Lexy, Wheesung, Taebin....errr any suggestions to new stuff???

Welll is depend...i prefer jpop...because the language is more accesible....you know...

I like both but not alot I still like plain old simple English more since I can actually understand English...and C/M-Pop sucks...it really sucks...(well not all of it sucks)

I mostly listen to Jpop, specifically YUI, Utada, OLIVIA (although she's rather dead now), Otsuka Ai, Mika Nakashima a bit, Mink (who is korean and sings in Japan), and I've gotten into some new artists that debuted: Alan and Kana Nishino.
As for Kpop, I mainly listen to Epik High and Wonder Girls.

Ditto, I stick to English because even though songs may have nice music, I like to understand lyrics. I do have the odd J-pop song from various anime I've watched lol.

Same as Gogo. All I know how to say in Japanese is "Godzilla wants to eat a Panda," so I just stick with my rock and metal with their English lyrics...

I would suggest Big Bang,Shinwha, Super Junior, Se7en, and Epik High, I love these guys

Well I actually sort of just got back into asian music. I"m into Boa, Arashi and maybe a few songs from DBSK

Well Im more into Kpop than Jpop mostly because I knew most of Kpops from my friends~ I love 8eight, Fly to the sky, SG wannabe, Vibe and many more... but for Jpop I guess I love ryohei, ken hirai, sowelu, yui is great too~!

i'm more into kpop too..... being following updates on allkpop.... my fav group would be DBSK and also Big Bang....

lol. I'd definitely say I'm K-POP biased- have yet to be enamored with any J-POP music/artists =/ I do like Utada Hikaru, EXILE, Aoyama Thelma and a few others though. K-POP wise my list is pretty massive, I listen to pretty much anything- DBSK, Super Junior, Big Bang, Outsider, SNSD, The Grace, 2NE1, Kara, SS501, MBLAQ, BEAST, Zhang Li Yin, T-ara, Oneway, f(x), Epik High, BoA, Brown Eyed Girl, 2PM etc. xDD

I'm a much bigger Kpop fan than I am Jpop... My favorite Kpop artists are DBSK, Big Bang BoA and 2ne1.
But I also really like Taiwanese/ Chinese pop music... anyone else like them?

currently a fan of kpop for the past 4 years. it used to jpop but my taste change.
my favourite kpop would be DBSK and big bang. currently listening to co-ed, u-kiss and nine muses

I loove JPOP and KPOP :D
In JPOP I also like Utada Hikaru, and m-Flo!! J-rock is also great, I like Behind Infinity, Naitomea, and UVERworld.
For KPOP I seriously just like everything. SNSD, Big Bang, Taeyang, Shinee, f(x), SuJu. K-rock is nice, though it sounds a lot like pop at times (FT Island and CN Blue ftw!)

I love listening to kpop and jpop, but that was back in the old days. Right now, most songs are infested with auto-tune. Its even used for artists who don't even need it!

i like korean music--but I am not big on all the boy band or girl band on there; they come up with the funnies name. After school virgins?? LOL! Fly to the SKY? I like their music, but wow! You're going to fly to the sky to capture my heart is that what it's suppose to mean. lol! soo funny..but I think I am over the Korean music, but i like Park Hyo Shin, Jinju, Noel, those that can sing! I need get rid of my cds though the ones I grew out of.
