No longer can we call it a barren land for metal!!
It�fs not just K-POP and hip-hop
Let's delve into the charm of Korean metal & Korean hard rock!

Since the 1980s, quality traditional heavy metal has been produced by bands like SINAWE and Baekdusan, and in the 1990s, new generations like Seo Taiji and N.EX.T took the world by storm.

Metalcore has developed to a mid-level country standard.
