You’re only a true K-pop girl group fan if you know these bands.

‘Hallyu’, or the Korean wave, has driven the popularity of Korean pop, famously known as K-pop, to evolve into a global phenomenon.

Thanks to their diverse genres, synchronic choreography, strategic camera movements and spotlight-stealing fashion trends, their songs are no less than an audio-visual treat. While BTS and EXO are among the world’s most successful K-pop boy bands, Korean girl groups are now dominating the pop music scene with their high-octane performances and euphonious vocals.
