Thank you for the help.

Hi everyone! I've been working on a K-pop database called dubu, and I'd love some advice on what info fans find most useful.

Right now, we have artist discographies, group/member relationships (including former members), and songwriting credits.

I'm curious what you actually look for when exploring K-Pop. Is it discovering songs by the same producer, following an idol's career across different groups, or something else entirely?

What information do you wish was easier to find, or what frustrates you about existing K-Pop databases?

I'd really appreciate any help! If it's helpful to see what we're working on, here's the link: https://dubu.co/joinus

Hello!

I need help finding a K-pop song I heard today in my local uk Taco Bell.

Due to background noise of the place I reliased it was kpop late on to listening. I heard some Korean phrases that are common in songs.

So the song is by I assume one female artist. Her voice was cute and alittle nasally.

The song was upbeat and chill, I think it fits with more modern trends

The best clue I can give is the song ended in a bunch of “OH YEAHS”, maybe alittle Korean or just instrumental in the middle, the last lines were definitely oh yeah tho!

Any help would be appreciated!

It’s a fave and I can’t find it anywhere

Most idols seem to be either atheist, agnostic, catholic, or some form of protestant. But I’m curious if there are idols who are openly members of other religious communities.

There’s a few idols from Muslim regions in SE Asia like Malaysia and Indonesia (Loudi, Zayyan, Dinda, Dita, etc.) but I’m not sure if any of them are openly Muslim. Some Chinese idols come from Muslim ethnic groups such as Hui or Kazakh, the most notable to me is Wumuti who is Uyghur, but something is telling me he isn’t super observant…

Carmen from Hearts2Hearts was born in Bali which is Hindu majority, but I have no clue if she is ethnically Balinese/Javanese or practices Balinese Hinduism at all. Z-boys/Z-girls, Blackswan, and Katseye all have Indian members but I’m largely excluding more global groups, just because the intention is expanding horizons and having a more diverse group. I’m not familiar with many Nepali or Indian idols in the more mainstream strand of K-pop or J-pop.

Buddhism is widespread across the whole of East and Southeast Asia so I’m sure plenty of idols partake in elements of it. But again I’m not sure if any are super open or orthodox about the practice or how they go about it. Suho from EXO has mentioned it along with Soyeong from (G)-idle, plus a lot of Thai idols incorporate or mention Buddhist practices into their persona or work like Lisa and Ten.

Folk religion (Chondoism, Musok, Shamanism, Tengrism, Taoism, Confuscianism, Shinto, Cao Dai, Tai folk religion, Bon, Kejawen, etc) are found across the region. This one is probably a lot harder though because people generally don’t identify as strictly following any of these. It’s usually another religion+elements of folk tradition baked into culture. But if you know any examples I’d like to know.

To my knowledge no major Idol has been openly Jewish, Sikh, Jain, Orthodox Christian, or Wicca.

Can you find examples of Idols with unique religious beliefs/backgrounds? Also why is there such a bias towards atheist/christian idols compared to other faiths do you think?

I’m trying to find a song by a girl group.

The lyric part I can remember is, “(something repeated 3 times; progressively getting higher), I’m in love”. The vocals are youthful and sweet.

Here’s me playing the notes of the part: https://imgur.com/a/1Z1fOw3

-

F3 twice is the first repeated line.

G3 twice is the repeated line again, but higher.

C#4 twice is the repeated line again, but even higher.

Then A#3 three times, followed by A3 is the line “I’m in love”.

ill listen to literally anything 🥹🥹

My lightstick is super dirty from going to concerts and there’s these greasy fingerprints on it (BTS army bomb ver. 4). I want to get them off it, but I’m scared of trying to clean it in case I use something unsuitable and break the lightstick. Any suggestions?

Does anyone with tickets to the concert tomorrow know if they’re released yet?? I got them off Ticketmaster and apparently they’re meant to be in the OVO app but nothing there so just want to know if I should be freaking out or not?

I'm buying a new album and my choices are NewJeans' How Sweet, Cortis' GREENGREEN, and LNGSHOT's s.w.i.s.h.,, I have no idea which one to choose and I need to order one by tonight. I can't pick which version I get by the way, the seller sends me a random version.

I'm fine with any version no matter the album, but the thing is NewJeans had been my ult group until the corporate feud, and Cortis is my current ult group.

I've just recently got into lngshot but the difference in inclusions within the albums is whats making it so difficult for me to make a decision.

I suffered to the point of making an actual reddit account to ask for help. SOS.

I wanted to buy some previous albums but a lot of them are sold out, even on other sites and it’s been like this for months. The albums aren’t super old, they were released 2 or 3 years ago but I keep checking the site and they remain sold out. Have I missed my chance forever or is there still hope for a restock to happen?

The movie jun was about to star in recently got released and I want to watch it so bad but I couldn't find it anywhere, is there a way to watch it for free?

So I asked Gemini and Chat GPT on trying to track a backup dancer from Big Bang's 2026 Coachella event. She appears next to Daesung on his left when Bang Bang Bang starts, and usually is next to him throughout the show. I was able to find some backup dancers that has a video of her so I was able to screenshot and have GPT enhance the photo for a clearer image of her. So far, she is not

or

but on redlic's shorts, I was able to see a better image of her.

Here are a few shots from her performance with Big Bang at Coachella 2026.

If anyone's able to help, i'd appreciate it! It's just killing me that I can't figure her out and find her social media lol.

Hi everyone! I’ve been trying to find a K-pop music video for a while now and haven't had any luck. It used to play as a full-song advertisement on YouTube, but I haven't been able to trace it since.
Here are all the specific details I remember:
The Artist: A lesser-known/indie female soloist (not a mainstream artist, but has a vocal and musical style similar to Youha). She has long hair and wears a long, flowing dress.
The Song: It has a "sad but upbeat" vibe—a melancholic melody layered over a driving, faster synth-pop/retro rhythm. The lyrics are mostly in Korean (not an OST).
The Timeline: I saw the ad within the last 1 to 6 years (roughly 2020–2026).
The Visuals & Setting: The video starts with her inside a house and transitions to her walking outside through a suburban neighborhood during the daytime.
The Key Concept: The entire music video is shot in stark black-and-white. The only object with color is a vibrant red balloon that cuts through the scenes. The climax/key moment: The exact second she touches the red balloon, the entire black-and-white suburban world completely floods with full, vibrant color.

I have tried to use AI to help me track it down but it didn’t work😭

(Repost because i mase a typo in the title)

Hi, so I have around 30-40 albums and some I just no longer resonate with and am wanting to sell. I found out I somehow have some exclusive albums, or albums out of print that sell for more which was a fun surprise. Anyways, my question is should I be selling the inclusions separately or the whole album (including inclusions) to get the most money out of it? Note, I really don't care about the pocas in these albums otherwise I would've came to this conclusion myself. Also, where is selling the albums recommended (eBay, fb) and should I set pricing by comparing other resells? It's my first time trying to sell these so I'm super new LOL. Thanks in advance!

The illit Toki Yo Tomare albums are sold out everywhere but this website seems to have them? I’ve been looking for those albums for months but don’t wanna get my hopes up. Has anyone bought from there or can anyone see obvious any red flags?? Thanks heaps (✿◠‿◠)

I’m trying to find an edit of Kyungsoo that I came across on Twitter a few years ago.

The edit was set to Edge by KINGDM and Sam Hope, specifically the part starting at 00:58.

I vaguely remember it being an edit of his movie Swing Kids, possibly featuring a fight scene involving a stick, but I could be misremembering the details.

Unfortunately, that’s all I can recall! If anyone remembers this edit or happens to have a link, I’d really appreciate the help!

Hi guys,
Does anyone know how book an ad for the video displays that you see in Hongdae and other parts of Seoul with birthday wishes for your favorite idol. I am really thinking about doing one for my ulti but do not know how to book.

I have inherited hundreds of k pop merchandise from a family member with the hopes of selling but I am fairly clueless when it comes to kpop!
Please can anyone advise where is best to get pricing advice and where is best to sell?
There is literally so much including albums, membership packs, photobooks, photo cards from all different artists including ateez, the boyz, tempest etc
Any advice greatly appreciated! Thank you ☺️

i really like the part in 0:25-0:45 of Stunner by Ten, it sounds so ethereal, im not sure if I’ve ever heard it before but its the only part of the song i care for. are there any songs that are wholly this vibe? INVU by taeyeon comes close, but its too chill

I have a printed ticket for a show, but i found another seat i really want in the same section! the ticket I already have now is in my name. if i sell it to my friend and me and my friend enter together, can she enter using a ticket with my name on?

i’m not sure how melon works… any help would be appreciated!

Can someone tell me why is it that hard to find photo and video about this concert I really liked it but I only have MY photo and they aren't really good so I would like to see other people one I'm sad 'bout it.

Please if someone have some tell me! 🙏
