K-Pop is one of the biggest music genres in the world, and has amassed a truly fanatical audience that lives and breathes for popular bands like BTS, BLACKPINK, and Exo, and are staunchly defensive of their favorite musicians and the culture surrounding them. These groups originated in South Korea, often made up of five or more members, who release music across multiple genres, complete with high-quality music videos and incredible dance routines that have captured the imaginations of people across the globe. For xQc though, the love of K-Pop is beyond confusing, going on a rant during his January 6 stream, questioning why anyone likes it. \u201cWatch BTS?\u201d he read from his chat, as a viewer tried to convince him to give the band a shot. \u201cWhat\u2019s BTS? Behind the scenes? Oh, it\u2019s K-Pop sh*t. Can I ask dude, what is it with K-Pop dude?\u201d \u201cEvery bit of K-Pop is treated like it\u2019s gold, and it\u2019s the best piece of art ever created in the whole wide world when it\u2019s absolute f**king dogsh*t. It is literal trash. Everyone is like \u2018Oh my God, this is one of the top gender-neutral choreographies,\u2019 and I\u2019m like dude, it\u2019s four hand-swings. At least if it was good dancing I could get behind good dancing.\u201d Following his criticism, the 24-year-old was ending his stream when he received a direct message from a K-Pop fan who had seen his rant, calling out the streamer for his opinions. In fact, he was so surprised by the DM that he decided to read it out for his audience, removing his \u201cstream ending\u201d screen just to let everyone know what it said. \u201cWhat the f**ck is this dude? Holy sh*t. There\u2019s no way this is real,\u201d he said, before launching into the message. \u201c\u2018You say BTS sucks. You make fun of me for liking them. Tell me I\u2019m stupid. Turns out you\u2019re the stupid one. I want to be different. I\u2019m sick of being what others want me to be. I want to dance out of nowhere, sing in another language. I want to be kawaii. I want to hug and snuggle my only friend because you two-faced, frick-frack, tik-tak idiots are too scared to be my friend.&#8217;\u201d \u201cWhat the f**k? Ok, good night.\u201d This isn\u2019t the first time that xQc has had a run-in with K-Pop lovers, with the streamer revealing back in 2018 that he had received death threats when he stated that a girl he saw in a video performing a dance routine looked like she lacked confidence. One thing is for sure, the messages he receives from K-Pop fans certainly haven\u2019t convinced him to keep his opinions to himself, and it seems like they haven\u2019t been able to convince him on the merits of the genre and community just yet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>xQc baffled by angry DM from BTS fan for calling K-Pop \u201ctrash\u201d F\u00e9lix \u2018xQc\u2018 Lengyel received a bizarre message from a K-Pop fan, lashing out at the streamer for his opinion on the music genre and those who enjoy it.
