all I can say is gonna luck for the new group

people stanning yet another yg group… I-

BP are kinda in a weird spot bc I feel like them being a kpop group is holding them back :skull: and I doubt they care about melon gaon and stuff anymore (well maybe bc they didn’t let them go to awards shows)

oh okay i see it now

being an ambassador is more important for the company and a campaign is more about the idol and it’s own popularity I guess

now I see why yg had brands for the girls at debut he didn’t want to pay anything :lmao: 

 

This is it exactly. It’s why the ambassador thing was hell for akgaes - the ambassador would get to look nice while the other members would wear cheap, unflattering clothes that the company could afford. It’s why Wonyoung and Yujin are always dressed nicely and the rest of IVE get leftovers and poorly sized clothing.

GOT is fine but girls on top the beat… idk

It’s just GOT The Beat, which is a famous phrase.

Just wait until the album details come out, sis.

 

What we really need in 2023 is for SM to get a U.S. distribution deal. For the love of God :skull:

looking forward to the new YG group but tbh I hope their tracks don't sound like 2ne1 or BP rejects.

 

4th gen gg competition is going crazy, honestly. For a while itzy looked like they were going to be the next big thing, then Aespa blew past them, then Aespa lost a bit of ground to the Ive/LSRFM/NewJeans trifecta this year. NewJennies might be the trend at the moment, but it can all change in the blink :gaycat1:of an eye.

the most important comeback will be aespa I mean it will actually feel like a comeback lmao

People thinking newjennies won't be global :dies:

 

 

they already are :dies: without lifting a finger at that! charting on US and global spotify chart for almost two weeks now, surviving Holiday’s season, still in top 30, it’s crazy!

 

Hybe Boy is charting on the global chart almost non stop since the release, they hold the record for that :deadbanana4: some groups struggle to enter the chart for a day, yet users here still imply that they are at the end of the successful gg list because their total sales/digitals/streams are lower than the rest… of course they are, they are 5 months old group :rip: they basically have 3 songs in the top 10 on domestic charts too… that’s what you get for taking the numbers and going with them without considering various factors that also makes difference when analising data

Not Baemon getting freed from the dungeon while all these boy group members leave YG :deadbanana2: Despite whatever mess they got going on in that building I'm sure the pinks will be fine. Ngl I'd gag if Jinni or Garam was magically in the lineup

 

Their reveal/debut and GOT the Beat mini on New Years Day >>>>>>, what a slay

Yeah they are not promoting in the US like Aespa but to say that they’re global without lifting a fingers when their songs are put on a lot of big playlists (like LSRFM and IVE btw). 


Plus they got a TTH placement, something no others Kpop act got, if I’m not mistaken even Super M didn’t get a TTH spot.

It’s still so surreal to see their success tbh. I mean WHO else had this kind of domestic AND global success in their debut year? Even BP didn’t have this (granted kpop wasn’t as big globally but you get the point). It might be too early to tell, but NewJeans truly are leading this gen rn.

They did get a TTH spot but that was towards the bottom. That barely makes any difference lmao.

BTS’ solos kinda flopped when we think about it 

BP members are definitely bigger than bts individually 

The only ones who can compete with the BP girls individually are JK, Jimin and V. I think V’s solo will do better than any BP girlie. But yeah rest of the BoTS, no1curr I guess (except the diehard bots fans).

Baby, nobody is arguing that NewJeans isn’t set up for massive success - they’re likely to be competing with BlackPink, Aespa, (G)-IDLE and IVE for #1 girl group of 2023. It’ll literally just come down to which group releases three Korean physicals within the year.

 

You have this narrative that people are trying to put NewJeans down by posting an objective chart compiled of album equivalents for the calendar year when the argument was about whether or not Aespa flopped. You literally interjected NewJeans into a conversation and then got mad at the objective chart results. Take a breather - I support most 4th Gen groups and have a thread dedicated to their receipts. I’m not putting any group down by celebrating the success of these women :deadbanana:

They do for Warner, but they are SM’s only female act with one. SNSD “had” one in 2011, but it never went anywhere. Meanwhile, every SM male group except TVXQ and SHINee have one.

The fun fact of it all Jinho never followed Hui to begin with.

Yeah BP styling improved massively as soon they started being brands ambassadors the thing is that BP suit their brands I hate Celine but Lisa’s style is tomboyish, rosé looks classy with YSL etc however just because you endorse a brand doesn’t mean you’re prevented from getting ugly outfits. Louis Vuitton and Hyein is weird combo she would fit a brand more youthful like Miu Miu/or BLUMARINE 

 

Every artists wear luxury goods you get nugu groups wearing $1200 tops. Because brands send them to stylists which would chose the looks. 
 

Non Izone members literally wear Versace, fendi etc they just don’t fit what they wear. :rip:

I’ve never even heard the individual BTS members’ names nor could I tell you how many members are in their group. It’s crazy to me that males are so much more commercially viable that they can sell 10x what a female can even without the same level of name recognition.

Even if it’s at the bottom, we can’t say that Ador is not lifting a fingers. They actually work for making them global and unlike SM they are more smarter lol!

none of these girls have topped THEM 

 



especially Lee Jung Hyun, she’s a legend, she created a whole movement in SK, an ICON :jonnycat:

 

 

I remember someone saying Uhm Jung Hwa was like the Madonna of Korea back then. And her hits was popular to the point it was covered by artists in other language.

 

 

Speaking of Lee Jung Hyun, her mic placed on the fingers was so iconic back then :jonny5: She's like the Gaga of Kpop before Gaga even exist in 2008

 

 

And yes just like Uhm Jung Hwa she have hits that also covered by other artists in different languages as well.
