Hey sexy people.

Music is awesome. I like using music as a way of learning a new language. I don't like popular Korean music... Girls Generation... Big Bang... Big Generation...

Surely one of you can recommend some good Korean music. I'm looking for something sort of punk or at least rock. The lyrics should be at least a little decipherable for my purposes.

Any ideas??

리쌍 - 'Run' is a pretty decent indie-rock-sounding tune.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gaxk6MboemE is completely mod-edited, but hilarious.

GumX? Korea's Greenday, if Jeju is Hawaii I guess.

I like Cocorre. They are a korean alt-rock band. They play often enough in Hongdae, so you can see them live too Smile

50 million people in this country. There must be good music out there.

Thanks for the suggestions so far. I'm going to look into it today. Cool

I'm so happy to have found this topic-- I've been looking for good Korean music as well!

That being said, I think the band split up, but I kinda like this:
