Park Seo-jin’s Shall We Date? (나랑 가요) went up on 1theK’s channel on 25 September 2025. He is a trot singer, which places this video in a corner of Korean music that listeners abroad rarely reach.

Trot has its own industry

Trot (트로트) is Korea’s oldest surviving popular style, with roots in the early twentieth century; the name is borrowed from the foxtrot. For decades it was treated as music for older listeners, sustained by daytime television, regional festivals and local radio rather than by anything resembling the idol system. That shifted after TV Chosun ran the audition series Miss Trot in 2019 and Mr. Trot the year after, which turned unknown singers into headline acts and brought advertisers back to the genre. Trot now has its own broadcast slots, its own touring circuit and its own star system, running alongside K-pop rather than inside it.
