[PLAYLIST] KPOPPY's first half of 2023

Actually completing one of the yearly playlists I'm backlogged on? Shocking! 

Made that decision to make 1st half playlists 30 tracks and 50 tracks for the full year last year and then the draft of the 2022 full year playlist got accidentally deleted. Many months of diligent work wiped out in moments and unrecoverable because of the way Blogger works. So now I'm making my drafts elsewhere. Lesson learned. Anyway, that 2022 one will show up in here eventually. But in the meantime just trying to keep up with the present.

First half of 2023 was a story of girl groups with friendlier sounds and Rock showing up everywhere. A lot of the major boy groups are still doing the very aggressive, shouty, noisy, stuff so the guys are way outnumbered here. And as I hoped/expected, NewJeans has had a ton of influence this year in style and sound. More of that, please!
