These 15 K-Pop Acts Are Must-Follows On TikTok
They’re stars around the world and online.
There’s something special about K-pop TikTok accounts. While Twitter and Instagram allow K-pop idols to share important music announcements, TikTok gives them the unique opportunity to promote their releases through short, fun videos. Luckily, many of those include K-pop stars like BTS, TXT, and BLACKPINK.
For example, when BLACKPINK dropped “Shut Down” in September 2021, Jennie, Rosé, Jisoo, and Lisa made sure to put the single on fans’ radar by sharing a series of TikToks featuring the track. One TikTok showed the members casually doing their song’s choreography while hanging around in a lounge area. It may have been just a simple clip, but it’s been viewed over 100 million times.
Outside of promoting their music, K-pop stars also use the platform to participate in viral TikTok trends, like many users. Since they’re professional dancers, K-pop artists never fail to blow fans away with their takes on the biggest dance challenges.
