Korean City Pop

Korean city pop is a revival music genre that echoes the nostalgic vibrancy of the '70s and '80s Japanese city pop, meshing modern K-pop sensibilities with retro-futuristic elements from funk, disco, soft rock, and synth-pop. It offers a refreshing, urban soundscape marked by smooth vocals, groovy basslines, and shimmering synths, often evoking the glamorous imagery of neon-lit city life and the breezy freedom of coastal drives. The genre is characterized by its laid-back yet upbeat tempo, creating a sophisticated, cosmopolitan vibe that resonates with both domestic listeners and the international audience. Artists such as YUKIKA and ADOY, with their distinct sounds, contribute to the genre's eclectic nature, blending the past and the present in a uniquely Korean interpretation of city pop's enchanting allure.
