KPOP 101: The terms you need to know before you stan

BIAS

※※※※※※※

Bias

Most simply, having a bias means having a favorite member within a group. But in K-pop, the word is a bit more nuanced than that, and can mean different things to different people. For some, it's the person you're most romantically attracted to — for others, the person who stands out to you or who you simply become attached to. Fans may sometimes even develop an ultimate bias, who is their favorite not only among a single group but among all K-pop idol groups.

How you choose a bias is up to you, but as many fans say, you're often not the one with the power: the bias chooses you.
