It seems like QWER had quite the journey in choosing their band name! Originally intended to be called “KIMOCHI THE ROCK,” the members revealed that they had to convince their agency to change it to QWER.
The name change came after an hour-long discussion, during which member Magenta argued that QWER sounded much better.
It’s fascinating to see the behind-the-scenes process of how band names are chosen and the negotiations that take place between members and their agency.
Korean netizens commented, “I think if they were KIMOCHI THE ROCK, I wouldn’t have listened to them, lol,” “lol, that’s funny,” “I think that name goes well with the group’s concept,” “They should’ve kept KIMOCHI THE ROCK, lol,” “Maybe just KIMOCHI is good,” “That’s funny,” and “Their songs are good though.”
