Each of the eight episodes features iconic Western stars paired with rising or established K-pop groups:
The concept centers on reinterpretation: classic hits from the West get reimagined with K-pop choreography, vocals, and flair. Songs include “Wannabe,” “Ice Ice Baby,” “Waterfalls,” “Lady Marmalade,” “Motownphilly,” and more—performed live in Seoul in front of a voting audience.
Megan Thee Stallion and PSY bring charisma and global flair to help orchestrate these genre-blending performances.([turn0search8][turn0search4])
Filming wrapped in late 2024, with fans spotting groups rehearsing in private Seoul venues—leading to Reddit speculation linking them to KPOPPED before the official name dropped.([turn0reddit17])
On Reddit, fans debated the potential for the concept. Some considered it "cringe Western pandering," while others anticipated unique collaborations. As one fan noted: > “Miles Jai and Psy together? Count me in!” ([turn0reddit15])
Cross-cultural synergy: East meets West in a fresh, fusion style—each performance is both homage and reboot.
Generational power pairs: From 90s icons like the Spice Girls to modern hitmakers like J Balvin, each episode blends nostalgia and relevance.
Competitive format: Seoul’s live audience votes for the standout rendition—bringing real pressure and authenticity to the stage.
Star hosting & production team: With Megan Thee Stallion and PSY behind the scenes, it's as much about credibility as spectacle.
