So weird how a hairstyle can completely change a person's look and vibe :rip: Katy Perry teas

Going to get conspiratorial here but I sincerely believe SM is purposefully holding back aespa to build hype for ae1 when they stop playing games.

Spoiler

Girls had most of it's tracks prereleased and specifically ignored the metaverse concept, keeping it back for the title track.

 

My World is looking to be the same thing where we've heard most of the songs and they were were normal music. The remaining 2 tracks are almost certainly going to be kwangya'd.

 

SM knows what we want and is teasing out giving it to us and also purposefully spreading the aespa hype thin. Even Big Bang had their album sales stagnate when they prereleased the entire album. It never works, not even in the western markets SM is obsessed with chasing atm. SM does too much market research to not realize this, they don't make this mistake with any other act.

 

I'm thinking the second they stop charting with their titles OR album sales slow down, I think SM will pull the plug on the mismanaged rollouts and aespa will peak.

The more I look at... this the funnier it gets

Also, lip piercings don't look good on thin lips, it makes them look even thinner.

Since the SKZ comeback is confirmed to be in early June, then it means that the comeback will be in either June 2 or June 9, since they always release on fridays  :bird: @Mitsuki @Save-Me-Oprah@discreetinside

Could just be a bad angle or a bad day but I didn't even realize that was him with all the spam. I assumed it was a member from one of the bgs I don't care about that this thread is always going about.  :worship:

No but she's possibly in SMNGG apparently. She was allegedly seen with the other trainees at SJ's concert last year.

If boy & girl groups from the West were on a Kpop label (Big 4 and non Big 4 label) what labels would you see them on?

 

Destiny's Child - SM Entertainment - SM focuses on powerhouse vocalists (ie: Wendy, Taeyeon, Ningning) as well as R&B music so SM would be the best for Destiny's Child

 

One Direction - either JYP, Hybe or SM 

 

Little Mix - JYP

Pussycat Dolls - Starship

TLC, t.a.T.u - YG

Spice Girls - SM

Fifth Harmony, Sugababes - JYP
