You need to worry about Aespa being washed by their peers just months into their debut. 

 

They lost that "4th gen leader" title real quick. Now thats crazy! :celestial3:

i think you are describing ITZY?

glad they are disbanding soon :heart:

 

 

talking about ITZY, after their promotion, sneakers climbed! i am pretty sure SET ME FREE, which is heavily promoted, should be back to chart by now, is there any update regarding their position? :heart2:

Edited by newaespa

this song is HITTING when you realised they are describing their senior :eek:

 

 

Ok, they ATE. They're so freaking talented...hope they can have a Teddy Bear situation and the GP gives them a chance.

this thread has a weird trend of associating "japanese" features with ugliness so you shouldn't waste your time arguing.

IVE officially now with Columbia

 

Curious to see how Columbia and Sony gonna promote Kakao artists. I mean Columbia did manage with BTS up to Butter/PTD era and we all know how Dynamite and Butter manage to crossover for western appeals. If the SM-Kakao deal was confirmed then RV would finally have US distribution and both SMNBG/SMNGG will directly get US distribution access on their debut.

This is so cunty of him:jonny5:love it:heart2:

and while we're on the topic of injustices...can we talk about how it is a crime that this GORGEINA hasn't blown up yet?!

 

 

Speaking of 4th gen leaders:

 

Happy 5th anniversary to Stray kids aka the best boy group in Kpop history :WAP: The way they started the 4th gen as well :clap3:

 

- They are the best selling 4th gen act

- The most streamed 4th gen act on both Spotify and YouTube

- They still have the biggest streaming day by any 4th gen act with over 13M streams on December 21 last year. 

- Biggest touring act among 4th gen, selling out arenas, stadiums and domes 

- The first 4th gen act to sell 1M and 2M with an album, and the only 4th gen act to surpass 3M with 1 album. 

- The first 4th gen act to top BB200 and the only 4th gen act topping it multiple times. 

- The longest charting 4th gen song on Billboard Japan Hot 100

- The 4th gen act with most daesangs

- Etc. 

 

And if we look past 4th gen then they are:

 

- one of the best selling Kpop acts of all time and will probably be the 3rd best selling Kpop act of all time at the end of 2023. 

- The 2nd most streamed boy group of all time after BTS on Spotify and 4th Kpop act overall, where they also get over 6-7M streams daily. 

- The only Kpop act along with BTS to top BB200 multiple times

- The only Kpop act along with BTS and SVT to have an album surpass 3M

- The biggest touring act right now after BTS, BP and TWICE mothers

- They have the longest charting top 10 song in Oricon history by a Korean act

- The first Kpop group to headline Lollapalooza this year

- Etc.

This doesn't make sense because american retailers aren't the only way american people can buy albums.

It makes absolute sense and you are wrong, unfortunately.

What are Seventeen up to these days? What's going on with them. And is Vernon really dating that ugly stylist?

How is Jimin doing is he flopping or he is he actually doing well?

they bait once’s but I have a soft spot for sheep (I think I may be one) so I think they get a pass anyways. :giraffe:

Who's actually a sheep here? Zac? 

 

Because currently the only group I like is SNSD, and aespa :bibliahh: lowkey shinee

 

In that case I would be more a hyena since there's newjeans lesserafim and Seventeen (my fave boygroup) :coffee2:

Speaking of Hyenas, who remembers the "Hyena Sisters" from Bad Girls Club? Truly an iconic trio wow
