Also, most K-Pop fans cannot name 50 EXO songs before an NCT song. :rip: NCT is very well known amongst young K-Pop fans. 

Most K-pop fans can’t name 5 songs from EXO and NCT combined. :skull:

and so was f(x) with 4walls :rip:

RV is a legacy act at this point.

SM really fumbled the bag... and aespa is unlikely to lead gen4 at this rate

The delusion,  aespa currently is the biggest 4th gen gg, lets not kid ourselves no other 4th gen gg sold more than 2m. Girls doing great for experimental noise,  illusion doing great for b side.  They clearly focusing more on a lore/ concept to sell albums for fans and its doing its job, when they release another next level is over for these newcommers hell even illusion has a chance at smashing if they bother to promote it. 

Their full album going to be massive since they will include next level to the album and i believe they will pull all the stops for the next comeback maybe trying perform 3 different songs in music show will work i mean ndwjennies had no shame performinv every track on their mini every dmn week in all music show.

No, f(x) was on a decline with 4 Walls. The album sold less than Red Light and Pink Tape and their promotions were disrupted by Victoria's scandal and by that point Sulli had already left the group. RPPP and Red Light were also a big drop from their previous singles in terms of downloads.

 

RV's sales on Hanteo have been more than doubling in the last 2 years:

99k (RVF Finale) > 260k (Queendom) > 580k (FMR) 

 

Also, RV's last 3 singles have all debuted immediately into Melon top 10, peaked within top 3 and in the case of Psycho and FMR, stayed in the top 10 for 3 months etc. whereas some other acts struggle to get near the top 40. 

 

SM is fumbling the bag by not giving RV more priority. aespa will be fine because they've only released 2 mini albums and already racked up nearly 3M total sales and their title tracks in the past year have all reached the top 10.

I’m gonna have to agree with you, too, that NCT is the smartest and most profitable group in K-pop history. Rotation groups have such a wide appeal because you can keep certain popular members in and sub out other ones for new blood all the time. SM has made every member replaceable so they don’t have to worry about a TVXQ/EXO situation ever again.

 

All of the NCT boys are just talented enough and they have the best visuals for a male group overall.

Only if those Kpop fans started to listen to Kpop in 2021... But I'm sure they can name more than 5 Exo songs.

EXO has more monthly listeners on Spotify than both NCT dream who had 3 albums since EXOs last one (a special 5 track album at that) and 127,

pretty confident it’s not EXOLs who can’t name EXO songs

I’m a Britney stan, which means I’ve followed K-pop since before almost everyone here (2003). 
 

EXO had potential to be a force, but they fumbled the bag so quick. They were a laughing stock their first year like RV and NCT, but unlike them, EXO were over after 6 years.

After LIKE and New Jeans combined didn’t outsell Aespa’s Girls. This has less to do with SM being scared and more to do with their girl group management being piss poor. It’s been four generations now and they still **** up with every girl group.
