Now a global phenomenon, K-pop’s explosion was driven by the international hyperconnectivity created by Psy’s “Gangnam Style,” which went crazy viral in 2012, thousands of miles from Seoul. With a foundation dating back to the 1990s, K-pop went on to experience significant growth and evolution, propelled by global fan communities in the digital era, on SoundCloud and beyond. Today, K-pop continues to reinvent itself with boundary-pushing acts. This collection of tracks showcases the wide-ranging sounds of those pushing the genre and culture forward, including Stray Kids, NewJeans, SUNMI, ATEEZ and more.
