Yuuri 21,636 Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Will BTS be the first K-pop act to successfully crossover into the states? Their newest single,DNA, is set to debut at #85 on the Hot 100, making them the 2nd K-pop act EVER to achieve this. So will it Rise or will it fall? Not to mention that they made K-pop history, with them being the first act to break into the Top 10 on the Billboard 200. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neight Shayde 7,925 Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 They need to get consistent chart rankings from now on if we're talking about a "successful" crossover. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Werk 13,165 Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 If only CL was able to do something similar with "Lifted" even though it was a cover Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gabeoz 7,819 Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Maybe, but I soemwhat hope not. But most BTS fans I see are absolute *ssholes. I’ve seen many attack Lady Gaga and little monsters for no reason other than because they’re “western” Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seeka 12,372 Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 I've been hoping for more K/J-Pop to cross over into America. With their Grammy win, I think it may happen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
2NE1bae 154 Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 I love BTS and they definitely deserve the recognition cause they're all truly talented. But the Kpop community honestly believed 2NE1 was to be the one Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baepsae 5,084 Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 I hope so I LOVE THEM SO MUCH and their new mini album is AMAZING start to finish 1 hour ago, gabeoz said: Maybe, but I soemwhat hope not.

The interactions i had with other ARMYs was actually very good, there are TONS of LGBTQ+ stans and they're super cool about it and really like Gaga Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToxicHot 6,425 Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 I hope so... I just recently discovered them myself (wasn't a K-Pop fan whatsoever), and I honestly really really like them. A lot. (Not just because they're all cute. ) Their music may sound "Americanized"/"westernized", but honestly, that's what they need to crossover into the States, am I right? It's good music though. Very trendy and contemporary with heavy hip-hop/trap influences. A lot of their songs on their new album would be HITS here if they were in English and sung by someone like Justin Bieber or a One Direction member or maybe even Shawn Mendes. I was actually really surprised at how interesting and unique their image is. dOnT sAd ReAcT mE 2 bE sHaDy i WiLL RePoRt U!!1! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reginald 13,669 Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Shook. I always thought Girls Generation, Wonder Girls, or 2NE1 (especially CL) would be the first K-Pop act to see mainstream recognition here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LateToCult 36,295 Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Hmm, maybe with their Chainsmokers work. But I don't think DNA will be their breakthrough Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
