** The majority of idols in this position get called "idol rappers", because they don't really write their own raps and are assigned this role by their companies regardless of their rapping skills (a.k.a not "real" rappers). However, there's plenty of idols who still write their own raps, particularly found within groups with a {{Hiphop}} and {{Trap|Music}} focused sound - with some even coming from the underground rap scene before joining the group.

* LimitedSpecialCollectorsUltimateEdition: It's rare for a K-pop album to have a standard CD release. A typical physical release is a box set containing not only the CD, but a book (usually a photobook, but sometimes a lyric book) and photocards with optional items like a poster included as well.

Korean pop music (known in the West as K-pop) is an umbrella term for pop music originating from UsefulNotes/{{South Korea}}, usually similar in genre to pop in the United States. However, the material performed/produced by K-Pop artists covers a wide variety of genres, from EDM-inspired music to rock to softer ballads, and everything in between. Usually known outside the country for the numerous {{Idol Singer}}s and idol {{Boy Band}}s and {{Girl Group}}s in the industry. K-pop and other Korean based entertainment such as {{Korean Drama}}s first became very popular throughout Asia in the 2000s, in a phenomenon that has been nicknamed the "Hallyu" or "UsefulNotes/KoreanWave". Like many things in South Korea, the talent agencies managing the singers are mostly based in UsefulNotes/{{Seoul}}.
