I couldn't find a K-pop API, so I built one. Kpop has millions global fans but no proper REST API for developers building fan apps, bots, or tools (like me). KpopAPI fills that gap. Still in beta—feedback welcome. New endpoints will be added as it evolves and lots of improvements :)

Here is a discord server to discuss about it! https://discord.gg/hYFfEakx6e

Because there's really not a need for a kpop-specific API? Your API doesn't really seem to provide anything that a generic music API doesn't provide.

Please don't post shallow dismissals, especially of other people's work. A good critical comment teaches us something.

I only stated why a kpop-specific API like this most likely didn't exist before, because generic music APIs (like musicbrainz) already exist and provide this same info.

If it solves his or someone else's problem, great.
