So when I started getting into K-Pop it was so hard to learn who was who in the groups! So here are some things I made that can hopefully help you learn who is who! And if you want to learn more, links to their official soompi threads are underneath (thanks x__nga for the idea) I know these look really simple and unattractive; I just threw them together quickly tongue.gif

Comments of any kind are appreciated (it'll be nice to find out if this actually helps anyone)

Warning: Some celebs tend to change their hair (and faces) quite frequently so the pictures might not be accurate depictions of them today biggrin.gif

Current Groups:

2NE1


Big Bang


SNSD


Wonder Girls


Super Junior


SS501


FT Island


Shinee


Kara


After School


2PM


CSJH The Grace


2AM


Beast


f(x)


T-ara


MBLAQ


F.cuz


4minute


U-Kiss


Brown Eyed Girls


Rainbow


Battle


SG Wannabe


8eight


Seeya


Davichi


Clazziquai


Epik High


Inactive Groups: (meaning currently not making music and/or working together under their group name)


DBSK


Shinhwa


S.E.S.


Baby V.O.X.


FinK.L.


Fly To The Sky


1TYM


H.O.T.


Jewlery






* -> Group Leader
** -> background color is also balloon color (go here for more info)
Please correct me if I labeled anyone wrong (it's very possible). Also, let me know if there are other groups that you think should on here! (I'm currently working on Z:EA, C.N.Blue, and Secret)

good idea but by inactive do u mean as disbanded or just not currently promoting. from what i know shinhwa and 1tym are definitely not inactive as in disbanded. well not officially, still hoping for a 1tym comeback lol. as in for the disbanded groups you have HOT, Sechkies, Seo Taji and Boys[way old school lol], and the list goes on. oh btw i think 1tym's color is black and white cuz they used towels instead of balloons. [i could be wrong tho]

KARA used to be a 4 member group. Since u added in Wonbin but x-ed him out in ft island it's only fitting u put in the former members like u did for FT island. Same thing w/ Wondergirls...Yoobin came in after the other girl (sorry forgot her name). But yeah put in former members too.

I think "inactive" can be confusing. B/c shinhwa as a group is inactive but they're not disbanded like finkl, ses, old baby v.o.x., dunno abt 1tym.

SuperKyle :: thanks for the tip! I changed the WG one smile.gif And I think I'm gonna do some solo artists after I get a few more groups done
x__nga :: done. great idea!
iChangmin :: I'll start working on them now smile.gif
Phantos :: yeah, it's still a work in progress. It's hard to find decent pictures for some of the older groups though! Like, I tried doing H.O.T. for this round, but when I search for "H.O.T." or "H.O.T. Korean" all I got was pictures of girls o.O haha!
naly26 :: i mean they're not currently active...they're not currently making music or working together as a group... and i'll look into the 1TYM color thing!
rocpinkslip :: The only reason I have pictures of Wonbin on the FT island one is because he left so recently that there aren't any pictures of the group without him and with Seung Hyun. My goal is really mostly only current members. I don't have much interest in the ones that aren't in the groups anymore and I think that people new to the game won't either. And it was HyunA

Woo hoo, I reached my goal of getting 3 replies wink.gif

Looks like you switched up Jonghyun with Key in the last two Shinee page. The rest of the information is great though.

Wow Super Junior, I didn't know they had so many members. You did a great job of this, if only you had done it a few months ago when I was just getting into KPop. I still don't know half the groups though, so this will come in handy.

Fly to the Sky, Jewelry, 2AM, Battle, 8eight, Seeya, Davichi, Clazziquai, Epik High, Jumper, U-Kiss, V.O.S
