K-pop started in the 90s of the last century, and after 30 years of baptism, it has rushed out of Korea and into the world.
Some netizens on theqoo forum pointed out that although many K-pop songs have successfully entered the Billboard chart and set off a boom around the world, in South Korea, only these two songs can be called the most popular songs in history, and they are highly sung, one is "Tell Me" by Wonder Girls, and the other is "Lies" by Bigbang. These two songs can be sung by men and women, young and old!
Korean netizens commented:
1.Historically, it's a bit of an exaggeration.
2.The song that the whole country knows should be "Southbound Train".
3.Shouldn't it be Jang Yun-jeong's "Oops"?
4."Tell Me" is absolutely legendary.
5.Back then, everyone on the streets and alleys was dancing "Tell Me", and even appeared on the evening news, civil servants and police officers made films, and the news reported many times.
6.Recognize "Tell Me", from kindergartens to the elderly, everyone is jumping.
7."Lies" shouldn't have appeared here at all, the title says "the whole country", how can middle-aged and elderly people be excluded? The old people don't know who BIGBANG is.
8.I thought it was "Cherry Blossom Ending".
9.National Citizen (x) Super Super Super Hot (O) History (X) TOP2 (X).
10.Regardless of the era, the song known to the people of the whole country must be the national anthem.
11.I thought it was Jang Yun-jeong's "Oops" and PYS's "Gangnam Style".
12.How can it be said that it is the people of the whole country, these two songs are only known to young people.
13.My parents' generation had never heard these two songs.
14.These two songs are not national songs at all, at most they are classic songs of that era.
15.To be honest, I've never heard of BIGBANG's "Lies", and of course I've heard two of them when I'm walking down the street, but I really don't know that there is a song called "Lies", and there are probably many people like me, but I do know "Tell Me".
16.The limitations of the era of the two songs are too great.
17.Does the history of Korea start in 2000? How can it be "Lies"?
18.I can still remember the dance of "Tell Me", even my parents can dance.
19.These two songs only reflect a specific era, and cannot be called historical
20.The two songs can only be regarded as the top2 in the history of idols, and if you want to talk about the history of the music industry, these two songs are not counted.
