I always thought Heeseung was the most popular in Enhypen. But I think there isn't a noticiable gap in popularity between the boys. 

Heeseung is just known as the senior-most member in the group who trained the longest, and also is an “ace” as in the most skilled in every area. So he’s more respected within the fandom for the same reason, kinda like Jihyo from Twice. But in terms of popularity, Sunoo is definitely ahead. 
 

But yeah, there isn’t a huge gap between the members so far. Maybe time will tell, once HYBE starts promoting them individually, if that ever happens lol. I know Sunghoon did the MCing at Music Bank but I’m talking about some real solo deals and endeavors.

Heesung would've probably been #1 by now if he wouldn't have said the n word & got a botched nose job

I feel like I always see Ni-Ki the most out of all the ENHYPEN members, and he's also the member with the most fancam views etc.

 

 

You know damn well that nobody is calling Hyunjin an it-boy :skull:

Let's not act like TXT stans aren't spamming the whole "Yeonjun 4th gen it-boy" etc., like even the phaguettes in here know about it :rip: The amount of times I have seen TXT stans write: "Wonyoung is the 4th gen it-girl and Yeonjun is the 4th gen it-boy", trying to sneak him in where he doesn't belong  :penguin:

so you’re telling me not a single stay thinks Hyunjin is an it boy? how come it’s “for fun” when stays say it but it’s not when moas do it? :sherlock:

7. Ni-Ki

Gurll. Ni-ki was the least popular in ENHYPEN. Selling or trading his photocard for other member was impossible. It’s like a curse. I have tons of Ni-ki photocards. Even with super cheap price, no one want his photocard. Same with Changbin SKZ too. I have so many Changbin photocards to let go or trade to Seungmin but no one want Changbin :deadbanana4:

Karina and Winter still have the record, Yeonjun only has the record for males. But Hyunjin is coming back later this year and claiming his 4th gen it-boy status back!

Yep and aren't all HYPE acts managed by Scooter Braun in the US? Or there are some kinds of partnerships between them?

Yeah, they’ve been folding Scooter into HYBE for months now. He was an advisor when they were forming “&team” for HYBE Japan last year. He’ll definitely be in charge of the new Geffen girl group coming up

Sorry but I cackled :dies: also no offense to anyone that stan these twinks but I keep seeing posts with IT boy this IT boy that for all these 4th gen boys but I don’t really see any impact they’ve had on the GP aside from let’s say millions of their own fans watching their fancams and the fanbase bulk buying. Meanwhile an ACTUAL IT boy like Eunwoo who’s very well known among the GP, does countless cfs in Korea, is the face of many brands, gets invited to high fashion events, has a huge social media following with over 30 million insta followers etc. gets ignored. Only on KTRL :dies:

Right, Eunwoo is THAT girl. He transcends his group’s placing in KPOP. The man literally has 30+ million followers on Instagram, while everyone else in Astro has 2-3M. He’s more viable as a solo idol than most of BTS (excluding V and Jungkook)

Hyunjin sexy 

 

just say y’all aren’t into twinks!!

I’m more of a Bang Me Chan myself, but Hyunjin is objectively very good looking

I feel bad for Changbin. He’s the least popular just cause of his visual, when he’s arguably one of the funniest and nicest members in SKZ. And such a talented rapper, and constantly serving body ody ody. #JusticeForChangbin

SKZ stans are only calling Hyunjin an "it boy" for fun, and not being serious. It's kinda like: "ugh he's so popular, he deserves to be an it-boy" type of thing.

 

However TXT stans and Yeonjun himself are being legit about Yeonjun being a "4th gen it boy" :skull:

lol I definitely see some stays being serious about that title and fighting moas, atinys or any other 4th gen bg fandoms. :redface: yeonjun tho he probably claimed that title since he was called by his fans from the very beginning (like the legendary big hit trainee) and big hit pushed him and media play that title but I still love him regardless :gaycat4:

Oh, I see. 

It's actually interesting they have similar popularity If we take in consideration they were formed in a survival show, that naturally pushes the public to support members individually. So you would expect some to be more popular than others.

Eunwoo is definitely the current benchmark for “It Boy” status. HYBE definitely has pushed Yeonjun. He’s still the only one with an IG — and has been courting Burberry for months now in endless sponsored posts

 

I’m surprised they’re not pushing Soobin at the same time

maybe because the boys aren't ready to make individual ig accounts yet, they revealed that they were asked if they want to make one but they declined... and for the soobin part, soobin is also getting pushed, he recently got his first solo magazine cover, he went with yeonjun with the channel event and he was a guest in various youtube variety shows like the lee youngji show, Jong kook, etc.

About the music, I kind of talked a bit earlier today. I'm expecting them to release a more EDM/Hip-Hop/Rock-ish sound and less popp-ish/groovy like Maniac and Case 143. Mostly because of Lolla. I think they will focus on choosing songs that fit more the mood of the festival for their next album and will be more effective to hype up the crowd. 

 

I also think It's been some time since they did something like that for title tracks, so I'd like to see them coming back to a harder sound. 

 

About the numbers, I'm not expecting a big growth in physicals similar to Maxident from Oddinary. Probably something closer to the 300~200k from Noeasy to Oddinary. Unless their chinese bars and their success on Japan (due to Case 143's performance) surprise me. 

 

Their Spotify streams is hard to measure. It really depends on the song. If they catch casuals' attention like Maniac/God's Menu I see It being a bigger performance, since the plaform grew in comparison to last year. If It's only supported by the fandom, then similar/slighty better than Case 143. If It's hated, then Thunderous' level. They will never completely flop there cause their fandom is too big and they don't depend on casuals to make numbers.
