I never understood the K-POP vs. J-POP thing, to be honest... Doesn't K-POP stand for "Korean pop"? How can they even be compared let alone "beat" J-POP? They're both different languages. (For me J-POP / J-ROCK wins) When I think of J-POP I think, ABC, ayumi hamasaki, Namie Amuro, Koda Kumi, Utada Hikaru (yes), Seiko Matsuda, Koji Wada etc. When I think of K-POP I think don't think of them as individuals but MASSIVE groups.
Add the fact that it's all pretty subjective unless those 48 chicks (not sure if they're Korean or Japanese LOL) and the other 1 million K-POP groups ARE dominating Japan's top 100 or something.
I'm not aware about this subject
