1. [+92, -3] This makes me experience iffy. I don't retrieve it's correct to label K-Pop groups equally J-Pop. I'm certain international fans who know K-Pop good would hold upward able to state the divergence but what almost the novel international fans who are merely getting to know these groups? I retrieve it mightiness displace a misunderstanding where they mightiness retrieve of BTS equally a J-Pop group.

2. [+51, -3] Melon's realy starting to experience similar a Japanese company. Fandoms, delight exit the site. They're labeling all the pop K-Pop groups equally J-Pop. They're belike setting the foundation for the futurity inwards 50 years where they tin exercise this equally bear witness to start claiming K-Pop equally theirs. When own got you lot always seen singers from other countries unloosen together with thus many Japanese versions of their ain albums? Just unloosen English linguistic communication versions from at nowadays on.

3. [+32, -3] What is this?! Is Melon Japanese now? Why are K-Pop artists existence labeled equally J-Pop? Why would you lot desire to innovate your ain country's artists to the basis equally Japanese? This is together with thus ridiculous, I'm deleting the Melon app from today on.

4. [+22, -0] Melon's reasoning makes no sense

5. [+5, -1] Anything a Korean creative mortal sings should hold upward labeled nether K-Pop. Just because they sang a vocal inwards Japanese doesn't alter the fact that Koreans produced it together with Koreans sang it. Why does Nippon become to own got the label when they had no purpose inwards producing it?? Then what does that brand BTS' 'Dynamite'? American Pop?????? Get rid of this J-Pop tag directly earlier nosotros start boycotting Melon.

6. [+4, -1] Just stick to Bugs Music or Naver. Neither of those sites label K-Pop groups equally J-Pop. Seems similar Melon has come upward into about investment coin past times the hands of the Japanese. Labeling BTS equally J-Pop merely way nosotros should no longer hold upward using their services.

7. [+3, -1] I'm certain fans who are good versed inwards K-Pop won't detect this confusing but I tin come across it causing a lot of misunderstandings for start fourth dimension K-Pop fans. I retrieve it's best that nosotros don't displace these confusions inwards the start place. Melon is a pop Korean streaming site which way there's a bigger gamble to displace confusion. Please ready the J-Pop tag immediately.

1. [+2,766, -9] Melon, ready this immediately. Your reasoning doesn't fifty-fifty brand sense. So releasing an album inwards Europe makes you lot a Europop creative mortal now?

2. [+1,550, -11] I searched BTS inwards Melon together with saw J-Pop come upward up. That felt together with thus wrong. Just because they released albums inwards Nippon isn't plenty reasoning. Fix it together with label them equally K-Pop immediately.

3. [+990, -4] BTS, Black Pink, together with TVXQ are all labeled nether J-Pop. There must hold upward about other argue behind Melon's pitiable excuse.

4. [+578, -17] So merely because they sang a few songs inwards Japanese, all of their other releases inwards Korea together with USA are all ignored together with left inwards the back?

5. [+420, -11] Melon... to a greater extent than similar merong. Why aren't they admitting that this is their mistake? Are they a Japanese companionship now?

6. [+145, -0] Just boycott Melon

7. [+95, -0] Are they insane? I own got never seen such an insane company. I won't hold upward listening on their site anymore. They should know that this is incorrect together with ready it but instead they're making upward excuses.
