Korean Shoegaze

Korean Shoegaze is a subgenre of alternative rock music that originated in South Korea in the early 2000s. It is characterized by its dreamy, ethereal soundscapes, often featuring distorted guitars, reverb-drenched vocals, and a heavy emphasis on atmosphere and texture. The genre is heavily influenced by the shoegaze and dream pop sounds of the 1980s and 1990s, as well as the indie rock and post-rock of the 2000s. Korean Shoegaze bands often incorporate elements of traditional Korean music, such as the use of traditional instruments and vocal styles, into their sound.
