Well in Korea at least, Velvet has always been less successful than Red. On Gaon, their top songs are Red songs.

 

Internationally Velvet is clearly more successful, so it's a tug of war between the two sides. Korea normally prefers the Red side, though obviously songs like Umpah Umpah failed to connect with the public. Birthday is falling into that category it seems.

 

But the beauty of Red Velvet's concept is they're never stuck in one lane, which is why they always seem to re-smash.

 

Also I feel like we're just gonna get a repackage of Feel My Rhythm and Birthday for the next release. I hope not, but that's what they did with the last ReVe Festival.

 

Understand your point, esp because the cute sound in the Korean market was strong when they debuted and red flavour is their biggest and best know hit over there
 

but they’ve put out waaaay more songs for red it’s not a fair comparison. Every velvet song is smashed beside the uninspired hookless mess they did pre-PRV. Every velvet song has been successful both in Korea and with int fans.

Antifragile is actually doing better than After Like so far, I feel like people just didn't know Sakura was in the group at first, so many people found out through the Kohaku mess  but yeah we'll have to wait and see 

Anti fragile smashing  Japan finally stanning taste 

 

funny cuz dynamite, butter and the feels were all disco inspired songs which smashed there, glad they’re finally waking up from that mess

Why does this remind me of Growl so much

I thought I was the only one who noticed. The intro is so growl-esque.

[BowWow]

just listened to my liked TWICE songs on Spotify and imma fume about Red Velvet some more

 

Okay so Twice is THE most streamed gg in US and was the only female act to make the billboard artist ranking. And it’s 100% because of their sound shift post Fancy. 

 

imagine RV just gave us that sound when Bad Boy blew up in 2018. Imagine how successful they’d have been! They could still do red songs like Last waltz which are more eccentric plus some cute lil hyper pop as it became more popular late 2019. 
 

and look how much more marketable a 4 member group (we drop either Wendy’s blasian ass or Yawnri) is than the 803829471 members in twice. Plus 3 of 4 have such western friendly aesthetics. Divarene is the ice queen classic beauty girl next door blend. Seulgi has the androgynous look and is tall and skinny we luv that for her! And Joy… literally a goddess  how can we forget the iconique rainbow dress moment, she literally is the western body ideal. The only issue is they barely speak English but that didn’t stop Lice or BoTS. 
 

plus that type of music is 100% more marketable than Fadpink 2013’d YG mess, love Jenniepink but be serious. RV would have walked all over them in terms of reaching the GP because radios would want to play it and non K-pop non gen z fans would enjoy it. 
 

In conclusion, RV post-bad boy is truly the biggest missed opportunity in SM history, and while they wouldn’t have been as successful bc of how established BP was by that time they missed their second chance post-Psycho. Instead of SperM SM should’ve looked at what he had right in front of him!

Hold on, is Jun one of the underrated members!?  

He's by far the hottest member of SVT, even hotter than Mingyu, and one of the hottest male idols of all time 

 

I thought he was mixed at first, since he could pass as a Huening sibling

He’s quite known for his visual, but since Seventeen is so PACKED with talent everywhere, his performance abilities are kinda overshadowed. He still manages to shine though. 
 

also Mingyu is a flawless beauty and an alpha, there is just no comparison  but my boi Jun is a Twink Dream so he has his own charm Plus he’s one of the quietest members with an unintentionally funny personality so that makes him even more endearing.

love joy but jennie is just on another level. she's the biggest asian it girl ive ever seen

Jennie is the full it girl package, party girl, evocative eyes, sex appeal etc. The way she ate up that talentless nepo girl on the Elle cover and will do it again when Idol drops. she’s just the perfect It girl rn Asia or not

 

but if any other K-pop girlie had it especially the LOOK it’s my girl Joy. Easy 2nd place. And with a loveable air too! Giving Zendaya vibe It girl. 

 

no on else in 3rd gen gg has It I fear! Anyone who say Fadyeon will be reported

I remember back then Joy was so so popular, with We got married, her rainbow dress, her personality etcc. Then tempted happened

She was so big during her shy shy era! If her and Tzuyu were Korean Nayeon wouldn’t have stand a chance for the center position

 

I hope that she’s got the center position in Misamo. Still wonder who’s going to be the main vocalist of the Group

The way she can slay both cute and sexy concepts, a WOMAN  if Twice wasn’t such a large group and if JYP had allowed them to thrive individually from the beginning, who knows how big she would have gotten.

DK isn’t generally my type but he is indeed an attractive man 

The thing is, I can’t really choos a trinity in this group because ther s so many gorgeous men Joshua, Vernon, Jeonghan, Wonwoo, Coups….all such handsome men.

For sure, the way she glowed up so hard and so quickly after Sixteen 

i think Mina will be the main vocalist in MISAMO. She can sing decently and has a very pretty texture to her voice in any register, just like how she sang the same lines as Jeongyeon here and sounded good.

 

Sana will be a close second ofc, and Momo can rap like how she did in Basics.

People don't give Mina her credits! She's a good vocalist, just don't give her 3mix'd level of vocal parts like the screeching in ICSM cuz of course, she doesn't have the range for it  But otherwise she's good enough! Her bridges are always moments for a reason 

[Pluto6]

Not y'all forgetting about Momoriah, when she's the idol with the most sex appeal ever 

LIKE EVERYTHING ABOUT HER SCREAMS CVNDT, LET ME REMIND Y'ALL:

 

Truly a sex goddess and the main slayer of TWICE Who can forget when she broke the internet:

Like I said she’s decent, and they just need to have a song to fit their singing abilities ! JYP need to focus on the choreography/visuals since they are good dancers 

[hallucinate]

while godrene is a great visual there is just something about joy  compared to irene she just has that more approachable and warm-hearted vibe to her, everytime i see her smile i find myself smiling too  

the true IT girl ‪of‬ RV idc

Yeah she can’t  sing the higher register screaming of Nayeon, Jeongyeon and Jihyo but girlie can do everything else while sounding angelic

Momoriah does have insane sex appeal and can dance her ASS OFF, but we’re talking about IT-girl-would-be’s and that includes someone who can carry a tune

If we talk about sex appeal for 3rd gen : the holy trinity is Jennie, sana and joy. They’re just hot. 
 

then 2nd tier would be : Lisa/Jisoo/Jihyo. 

mina has a limited range, but she’s a good singer. When she sings I don’t feel annoyed by her voice.  And let’s talk about how she’s one of the most beautiful women actually the j-line is…JYP hit the jackpot.

The thing I find the most charming about DK's face is his pointy Dr. Kim nose    I have noticed that I have a thing for male idols with big and pointy noses for some reason just like DK and Jun etc.  

 

 

I totally understand not having a visual trinity in your favorite group, cause I don't have trinity in SKZ either, but a quadrinity, cause I can't pick between Bang me Chan, Leé Knowles, Bulljin and Deep Voice

I can’t find Hyunjin that attractive tbh…. Idk why. For me SKZ trinity is easy, Bang chan, Lee know and Felix. With Seungmin and IN a distant fourth and fifth

 

axtually, IN might be in my trinity, kick Felix out.

The fact that all of them are born in 1996 .

 

I wish they did a collab stage back then or an It girl collab stage with Irene, Jennie, Hwasa and Nayeon.
