Get to know some female and male K-pop groups that deviate from the traditional and do not elect older members as leaders
One of the most traditional cultures in South Korea, followed throughout the country, is in relation to age. There, even if someone is at least a year older than you, you need to treat them with respect, referring to the person with the correct honorific, like “unnie” used by girls who are going to refer to another older girl, or “hyung” for boys to refer to other boys who are older.
Because of this great respect, normally in K-pop groups the leaders end up being the oldest members of the group. However, it is not difficult to find some exceptions where younger members end up being chosen for this position.
