The kids over there apparently cherish individualism and internationalism. It's a very good sign for Korea's future, isn't it?

Hyori Lee 

Girls' Generation 

Wonder Girls 

How do I know about all these? It's impossible not to hear these in Singaporean malls. Much better than Justin Bieber though.

PS: Make a YouTube search on "Indian pop". It's a totally different story.

PS2: Also Chinese pop features some English. And materialism to the extreme…
