So, Indie Music Movement in Korea?

So recently I've been very much so into Korean indie music, and stumbled by complete accident upon this agency; Pastel Music. They specialize in mostly Indie style music, and emphasize on emotion in music. So at first I was like, "I bet they're no good," But after listening to a lot of their artists, my heart completely and utterly was taken all by them. I just read an interview from their CEO, and the man is so thoughtful and sweet! I really was inspired with his drive for music and spreading more genres other than Kpop around Korea. He wants KIndie to become a thing as well. Anyway, I just really want you all to check it out, listen to some of their stuff! I'll post my favorite video and the link to their youtube chanel.

well, from Pastel Music...i guess...i kinda like Sesame and Cotton Candy's music...found them through Rainy Dance but Song A is sooo dreamy...i like K-indie too...but i've read an interview with a supposedly indie band, Broccoli,You Too(my fav band tbh bcuz of their deep/life related lyrics mostly n awesome music) that they don't consider themselves indie anymore bcuz they're no longer selling their music on their own and have label to distribute their albums now(well, there are 'indie labels') and that indie isn't really a music genre...i kinda see their point, which is true tbh...but it's hard to use other words to differentiate the music non-mainstream atmosphere i guess, but i guess...yeah...idk...i like quite a number of unknown/K-indie singers from diff genres i guess...tbh, recently i find their music way more addictive than kpop...
check out Ladies though if you're looking for something out of the world awesome...><...but i'm not sure if they're everyone's taste...but for me...yeah, i'm super impressed n in love.
