Kpop idol group B1A4 has shown strong growth in recent years. They released their new song 'Lonely' in January 2013, and swept over all the Kpop charts. Then, what would you say is the main reason for their success? Let's talk about Kpop idol stars' rules for success.
B1A4
◆Rule1: Do Distinctive Music
There are too many Kpop idol groups who all look the same. Most of their albums carry the same old tired contents and music fans are searching for something special with a unique and distinctive style.
To gain a competitive advantage over rivals, Kpop idols need to do their own music. In that sense, it really works if one of the members can write music and lyrics. Just one person can change everything as you can see in the case of Big Bang's G-Dragon and B2ST's Yong Jun Hyung.
B1A4 has leader Jin Young. He wrote the group's hits such as 'Baby I'm Sorry', 'Baby Good Night', 'Tried to Walk' and 'What's Happening?'. Well, his songs are not yet enough to shake the world, but are certainly differentiated from other idol groups' songs. It's enough to captivate young Kpop fans.
Especially, in his another own song 'Lonely', you can confirm his development as a young composer. The R&B hip hop song is about the sorrow of parting. The song aroused sympathy from not only teen fans but also people in their 20s and 30s.
◆Rule2: Stick at Individual Projects
To Kpop idols, individual projects are as important as team projects. Through TV and movie appearance, the members can get opportunities to be seen in public. That the steady efforts for individual projects will some day come to fruition is a view shared by most Kpop industry workers.
The B1A4 members has constantly been doing their individual activities since their debut in 2011.
CNU appeared in KBS' 'I need a fairy' aired in 2012, while Jin Young appeared in tvN's 'She's Wow'(2013) and the film 'Miss Granny'(2014).
Especially, Baro made a big splash by appearing in tvN's 'Reply 1994'. On the strength of the drama's big hit, he won a great deal of popularity. Public interest in Baro naturally led to B1A4's popularity rising. It definitely had a good influence on success of the group's new album.

◆Rule3: Obtain Loyal Fans
After their debut, B1A4 has captured fans' hearts by showing off their cheerful and friendly charms. Now, they have a loyal fan base.
B1A4 proved it by taking second place at the popularity vote for Seoul Music Awards 2014. Beating prominent rival idols, B1A4 held the second rank.(SHINee was ranked No.1)
In addition, B1A4's concert tickets went like hot cakes. The tickets for their third exclusive concert 'The Class' held in Seoul in February 2014 were all sold out as soon as the sale was opened.
The success of idols' success entirley depends on their fans. Fans vote for their favorite stars and buy concert tickets & albums. Without loyal fans, it is so difficult for Kpop idols to achieve dominance over rival singers. For this reason, idols try to see their fans as often as they can by holding special events such as fan meeting and autograph event. Yeah, idols always talk about their fans when they receive awards, and there is a good reason for it.
Kpop girl group AOA transformed into sexy cheer leaders. The group recently took part in MBC's 'World Cup Cheer Show', and revealed a photo of itself through official Facebook page. At the program, the members sang 'Spread your wings of victory', wishing for the Korean team's victory at 2014 World Cup in Brazil. AOA will release its new mini album in June. Check out the video of AOA singing 'Spread your wings of victory'.
On October 28 2016, DSP Media officially announced that the 7th-year girl group Rainbow will be disbanded and each member will go their separate ways. Actually, so many people in the k-pop world feel sorry for Rainbow because the girl group members have been working very sincerely and they've never caused any trouble. And they've always been treating people around them very kindly too. In addition, they've been getting along very well with each other for a long time. Well, however, the problem comes down to the girl group's popularity. Rainbow has released many albums since its debut in 2009 but couldn't become one of the most popular k-pop idol groups, unfortunately. One of the reasons for Rainbow's failure was DSP Media's lack of producing ability, but the girl group was also very unlucky because there were so many competitive rival girl groups who debuted in 2009 along with Rainbow such as 2NE1, After School, 4minute, f(x), T-ara and Secret. Anyway...
It was shocking and sad news. SHINee's Jonghyun died on December 18, 2017. He has suffered from severe depression, and before committing suicide, he sent his sister a text message that read "It has been hard. Please let me go. This is my last goodbye". Countless people are expressing their sorrow at the idol star's death, and many celebrities including Girls' Generation, Super Junior, EXO, Red Velvet, BTS, IU and ZICO have visited his mortuary to express their condolences. 4 SHINee members, Onew, Minho, Key and Taemin played the role of chief mourner. Some of you might wonder why such a famous star committed suicide, but it's true that some Korean stars are suffering from severe depression. They're always controlled by their agencies, and they feel rushed due to anxiety of the future. In the Korean entertainment industry, they fiercely compete to survive, and it's never easy to overcome the severe mental pressure. That's why some celebrities...
There are many beautiful Korean female celebrities, but it's true that many of them got plastic surgeries. And some of their faces look so unnatural and emotionless, which draw unwelcome attention from the public. But, unlike the artificial plastic beauties, Seolhyun succeeded in catching eyes of people by showing off her innocent and natural appearance. After appearing in a commercial for SK Telecom, AOA's Seolhyun became the hottest female idol star in Korea. She's been active as a model for various brands, while she was also appointed as PR ambassador for Korea's general selection. She's now one of the highest-paid female kpop idols. Yeah, it seems like nothing can stop her. The notable thing about Seolhyun’s real personality is that she is very mild and meek. The natural beauty behaves in natural ways as if she is an ordinary young girl, and this is why she finds favor in everyone's sight. She is a little bit shy, and she usually says softly and quietl...
Big Bang is back with its new songs 'LOSER' and 'BAE BAE'. On May 4, I met the 5 members and interviewed them. As it has been too long since the 5 members all together were interviewed by Korean journalists, it seemed that they had much to say. Let's see what they talked about their music, love, and life. Big Bang's Music Q. You guys said you will release new singles on the first day of every month. It sounds like an uncommon project. Taeyang: Just a month before, we worked really hard to decide if we will release singles or a full album. Actually, we have highly satisfactory new songs and we wanted to release a full album which contains all of them. However, we also wanted to film music videos for all of the songs and that’s why we decided to release singles every month. Q. What kind of songs will you release from next month? Drop me a hint. Taeyang: What I want to say is that all of the songs are different. We will show you something very different e...
