#kpop #commentary #kpopopinions kpop video essay K-pop stans react and criticize kpop for being westernized on social media and point to certain things k-idols do as examples of the issue. I know some kpop dances are too racy and songs sound more American but are these examples of westernized? What would you consider my points/analysis an unpopular opinion? I'm living abroad temporarily right now and don't have my main mic with me so I apologize for the sound quality.
