I don't listen to Kpop as a general rule. Since I watch Kdramas, I've been exposed to a few songs, but nothing really stood out for me. Over the last week though, I've discovered Mamamoo and fallen into a very deep rabbit hole. Their music videos are good, but their live performances are unbelievable.

Agree 100% with this.

Fwiw, I used to enjoy checking out the live performances by a variety of groups and artists on You Heeyeol's (alt. sp. Yu Huiyeol’s) Sketchbook (유희열의 스케치북), before his series was cancelled a couple years ago.

Clips from the series can be found on the KBS Kpop, KBS World TV, and Kocowa TV YouTube channels. I believe they were originally taped on KBS Kpop, and then select clips were sweatened up a bit (e.g. compressed for loudness) for rebroadcast on the main KBS World TV channel. So the sound quality is a little different on the two channels. I haven't listened to enough clips on Kocowa TV to know how those were sourced.

It looks like KBS World TV also has some full episodes from the series for the years 2013-2018. The series ran until 2022 or 2023 though, I believe.

A memorable live performance of Billie Eilish's "wish you were gay" by Hwasa of Mamamoo and Kei of Lovelyz from the Mnet music competition series "Queendom" (퀸덤).



Other competitors on the show reacting to the above...



There are some more clips by Mamamoo and others from this series earlier in this thread.

Not sure if anybody here has ever watched Queendom series. I think they did some excellent covers before.
