I am working on a project and need some type of feedback. I am going to make two posts and have polls on both to gauge results.
Please give a response to the type of kpop fan that you fall into.
Feel free to elaborate in the comments.
Detail if what like in kpop differs from what you enjoy outside of kpop
I wasn’t able to add more options but if its a hybrid please comment on the mix and what order of preference. For this poll focus on what you enjoy the most.
