It is a music genre. Some people say it is old fashioned. But it is actually making a comeback, becoming popular and become trendy these days, so very very popular and I like most of the disco music. The rhythm, the music itself, is very up beat

[Speaking] Talk about Disco Music
Disco music is a genre of pop music which uses a fast-paced and up beat rhythm. It became famous when the 1977 movie, Saturday night fever starring John Travolta, was a huge box office hit worldwide. The high intensity movements of Disco dance routines became popular among young people in Korea starting in 1979.

Later, disco moved on to become house disco. House disco is easy to dance along to, thanks to its approachable melodies. It contains fewer mechanical elements than techno. To this day, many singers produce and sing disco style songs. BTS`s “Dynamite” and JYP`s “When we disco” are examples of disco songs that have hit it big lately. It appears that disco craze is making a comeback.
