There are tons of good Korean bands out there but no one even knows them. I get that most people stick to the more mainstream ones but here are a few groups/artists I think deserve some attention :) Of course there is a chance you know them, or that they actually are quite famous but meh *shrugs* I'm not that well informed about the kpop charts and all.

- Clazziquai. You have to! Have to! They're awesome. Also Alex alone is just dreamy.

- Aquibird: This is more for the indie lovers among us but there might be a song in their repertoire you might like, even if you don't like indie ^^

- Romantic Punch: Indie Rock but very good. Very good.

- A.Tract: A rock band but I hardly can find any info...sadly enough T.T I advise you to listen to 'It's Over'

- LED Apple: they have gained more popularity lately, so yay :)

- Aziatix: R&B, Hip Hop. They're from America but they're all Asian so :D

- The Black Skirts: also Indie

- E.Via: fastest female rapper in Korea...so the female Outsider. Do I need to say any more?

- Go Go Boys: They hardly have any songs. Actually I can only find one that isn't live, but dadmn is it a good song

- Handsome People: Catchy songs and just makes me want to dance. The fact they're in the same company as Clazziquai and 10cm says a lot I think.

- JQT: My favourite Korean girl group. They don't bring out nearly enough songs for me.

- M to M

- Norazo: their songs are just plain funny

- One Way: One of the best in their genre. I just...I don't have words for it

- SMASH: They're Korean, surprisingly, since all they sing is Japanese

- TRAX: I guess most people know them because of Jay and because it's a group of SM, but have you really listened to them? For the rock fans I'd say you check out there early songs, the ballad lovers I advise you to listen to their latest albums...they have gone soft, but they're still good :)

- 2NISE: I love their song 'She Said'

- And final but not least: Nu'est: they haven't debuted yet but be sure to watch it :D I have high hopes for them...I hope they make them come true ^^
