QuestionHow can I make up a tune for my lyrics if I wrote them in English and translated them after?Community AnswerI think the best thing to do is just start off with Korean, as making two different tunes is very difficult, but you can just use the same tune, with a little editing.

QuestionIs it possible to write a Korean song without learning the language?Community AnswerWell, no as you would need to know the language to write the lyrics. Of course you could have someone translate it for you, but the syllables will not work out right once translated. The lyrics & tune will not go together. It is actually quite difficult to translate song lyrics, so they still work with the song's music and mean the same thing.

QuestionWhat kind of dance do I have to learn to compose a KPOP song?Community AnswerYou don't need to learn dancing. But if you look at well known Korean bands/groups they have their own style of songs and dance - they have different composers and choreographers. For example BTS (BigHit ent.) is really focusing to their dance and performance and storyline of their MVs. EXO (SM ent.) has their specific melody. Also it may depend on the entertainment. For example, it may seem that WINNER and iKON (both YG ent.) have similar songs, but BIGBANG (YG ent.) do not, because they compose their songs often. Same is with choreos. If you want dance you can learn some of existing Kpop choreography and maybe you'll learn the style and then you'll be able to make your own.
