Acutally that's v impressive that BP are able to be the most followed and viewed YT channel. They came on the scene when YT was established, and didn't ride the wave of popularity that comes with rising social media (like influencers on Tiktok right now, for example, or a bunch of dumbass gamers on Twitch and clones).

 

Obviously a lot of this is very good marketing from YG, but it's also a testament to how powerful a good girl group can be when given proper support.

do you think this would be possible if they had as many comebacks as other ggs did? 

Queendom 2 was a disaster so I condole every group who is going to participate in that Puzzle thing

Doubt it. I would include staggered comebacks under "good marketing", as it raises hype / allure in a way that other agencies can only wish for. They followed a similar template to 2NE1 but YG learned from their mistakes and were more focused with BP's ambitions globally.

Do you think them being 4 is one of their advantages? 

Yes, it makes them extremely marketable to international audiences who crave ‘individuality’ and personality. Their strength is that no member is left behind, they all have their individual brand and are all global ambassadors of fashion houses. They’re all seen as distinct from one another yet on the same level of fashionable and admirable. Lisa is the cutthroat rapper and dancer, Jennie is the princess, Rosé is the artkid and Jisoo is the mature goofball. They all claim a spot while still working as a collective

 

All of that would be lost with more members

who though that it’s was a good idea to send them to mubank paris before the comeback.. They just arrived this morning then go straight to the press con :ace:

Probably not. Their success is mainly due to the individual branding and marketing of each member as distinct contributors to the group with their own unique charms. If it was 9 members, that would have been difficult. 
also Miyeon is a better vocalist than any of the current 4 girls so she would have elevated the group vocally of course. But dancing and performing wise, she would have probably fallen behind because she’s a Jisoo level performer at best. 

Miyeon is worse than Jisoo? Maybe I haven't watched enough of (G)i-dle's performances.
