Trends come and go in any industry, and K-Pop is no exception. Whether the trend is something regarding fashion, the genre of popular songs, or fan behavior, there are some that are definitely more liked than others over the long run. Recently on Reddit, K-Pop fans were asked to share which trends in K-Pop they think have aged poorly, and these are seven of their top answers.
1. Choreography made specifically for TikTok.
2. Too many remixes/versions of one song.
3. Songs under three minutes long.
4. Mass streaming/inorganic views & streams.

6. Choreographies made for cameras instead of crowds.
7. Too many TikTok challenge videos.
