Important Notice: i will shortly publish a book called "jopping" so i can add it to this list in honor of the extreme literary prowess of SM Entertainment and the act of "jumping" and "popping" at the "same time", please stand by thank you to @demon and @brandanadei for the genius idea of honoring this seminal piece of music

I don't know if any book could measure up to the straight fire that is Jopping

6

I'll have to write it in the last 3 hours before taxes are due to emulate the conditions in which i awarded jopping a 10 on the all-stars rate

HECK YEAH!! jopping #1 nytimes bestseller 😈

This will be my bestselling debut novel, just you wait!

I-dle 'Tomboy' = Tomboy: A Graphic Memoir I-dle 'Revenge' = Revenge Itzy 'Girls will be Girls' = Girls will be Girls OR Girls Will Be Girls: Dressing Up, Playing Parts and Daring to Act Differently LISA (Ft Doja Cat, RAYE) 'Born Again' = Born Again

Some suggestions of books that share names - not inspired by! Lisas 'Born Again' watergate scandal book connection is a wild one.

7

the watergate book is so fucking funny lmaooo thank you ava!

3

I cracked up when I found it, the more outrageous the better

that song is FIRE honestly, would love to include it here! do you know of a book called lucifer? i tried searching but PB didnt give me anything lol

2

I saw some comics by Holly Black and Mike Carey I believe, but those sounded like they were extensions or spin-offs from Gaiman's Lucifer from Sandman. Not sure if you wanted that in, but that's an option! I'll skim around for more 2nd gen song titles and will report back on my findings đŸ«Ą

NCT 127- Lemonade Lemonade by Nina Pennacchi

5

thank you so much! added!

2

You're welcome!

2

I'm gonna find some more for you! I'll edit my comment!

2

The list I did not know I needed, but could not ever live without anymore

4

i am so very glad that other people are enjoying the kpop brainrot that has taken up permanent residence rent-free in my head lmaooo

2

Oh my god I’m obsessed with this and patiently awaiting the jopping book

3

i am very grateful for your support, my current pitch for this book is to have pages with one word only, which will alternate between "jumping" and "popping" in demonstration of how one could be "jopping", because "when we jumping and popping we jopping" i hope this is not too avant-garde of an approach to literature, i only aim to preserve the profound artistic vision of SM Entertainment 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

9

this is a really fun list!! some of these are a total surprise hahah

3

Maybe “CRAZY” by LE SSERAFIM? I think there’s a book for that one out there?

3

Honeymoon - BAP = Honeymoon - James Patterson Cinderella - CNBLUE = Cinderella Days Gone By - DAY6 = Days Gone By (Walking Dead Vol 1) Red Queen - IU = Red Queen by Victoria Aveyard And I think COSMIX has one called New Moon if you're still looking. I'm sure I have 3428903 more but start with those lol

Oooh thank you so much for these, super helpful!!

My immediate thought, except I'm on Deezer. So, if that's alright with you, Imma switch apps right now :3 [Edit] : you know, coincidentally, last song I was listening to was animal farm by bibi ^^ thought it was funny

2

i've never heard of that app but of course you are MORE than welcome to make your own playlist there too!!!

and yessss hahaha thank you for that suggestion on discord! i started making this list and every kpop song i knew just magically disappeared from my head ngl LOL

2

It's just like spotify except for french (although it might have been bought, I don't know, but the origin is french) I did the playlist, I can share it with you if you want, apparently I can export it in a way that can be imported to spotify - the magic of technology. Although, I could not find New Moon by cosmix, I don't know why, maybe deezer does not have it...? But I find that very weird. Of course, I'm happy my very limited knowledge of kpop could be of use 😁😁

2

Ohh that would be lovely if you wanted to share the link for other French users on the site! And yeah COSMIX looks super nugu from the youtube channel lol i don't know if they have their stuff up on spotify either

2

Bless you for including f(x). Dracula is one of my favorite songs off of Red Light.

2

that entire album is just pure excellence. i also love butterfly!

2

Yes! I agree! I honestly love their entire discography. So many bops.

2

This is so so funny, love to see ATEEZ represented!

2

ateez always release bangers, there was no way i couldn't include them!

2

nmixx passion fruit!! there’s a book in the PB search with that title 🙈

2

2

oh my gosh đŸ€Ł I love this!

2

BTS- Butter

Butter by Asako Yuzuki

2

Thank you sm - added!

2

I made the corresponding playlist, this link should work on multiple platforms like spotify, deezer, youtube etc... But I've never tested it though : https://link.deezer.com/s/31vlrnhw3xvqxIifMWGEb
