K-Pop Band Names That Are Just Too Much!
1. “(G)-I-DLE” apparently stands for (Girl) Idol in Korean. Understandble when you the meaning but when not? God!
2. The “AB6IX” group consists of four people currently. So the ‘6’ in the band name is quite confusing? If you wondering how it’s pronounced, it’s “A B Sik-Su”.
3. “IZ*ONE” is another K-Pop band name that’s way too hard to understand. People have come to a conclusion that it’s pronounced as “Eyez-One”.
4. “Weki Meki” has created chaos about their name even among Korean fans. Two words that look and sound the same, just doesn’t do, apparently.
5. Did the members of the band not know that there is a day called “Saturday”? However, since their arrival, the word is just not a weekday.
6. Another K-Pop band name that’s got a number to tell us how many members are in the group. “SF9” stands for “Sensational Feeling 9”, we mean, “WHAT!”?
7. “TXT” stands for “Together X Together” which means that one should unite to make tomorrow a tad bit better. Though one can surely mistake it for “TEXT”.
8. “SNUPER” surely has got a spelling mistake in the band name. Why is there an ‘N’ which stops us from saying “Super”?
9. “Berry Good” is pretty cute but the group name comes from wanting the girls to be healthy. Now, that’s weird.
10. “NU’EST” stands for “NU(new), Establish, Style and Tempo”. We mean, K-Pop industry, what are these random words thrown in, just to make a name?
