I totally get what you mean... It's like they'll give you a kind of "shocked stare" if you're not into the KPop trend... Ugh...
I'm only just an occasional fan of Kpop (some are def quite catchy!), but this overwhelming trend here of who's hot or not is really irritating me. My friends around me prefers Kpop as well... try telling them you like Ayu or GACKT, you'll hear nothing but cricket sounds. XD;;;
Sometimes they do try to flood me with Kpop stuff, and seriously I don't like it. Don't force me to listen to something I hate. So, in turn, I know they hate Jrock, I will flood them back with GACKT. Hahaha!! It's my way of "letting them know that's how it feels". And it does work, I think, cuz they've stopped forcing me to follow the trend and learn to respect my choices.
(To be honest, I think Jrock fans are totally feeling even more outcasted than Jpop fans over here...it's really like the minority!!)
But all in all, I've convinced myself that I'm unique with what I choose & love to listen to, and that's what sets me apart from the trend followers who follows blindly (well not all...but you get what I mean...). Well, I never liked trends in the first place... lol.
