Alot of you girl group stans are highkey miserable. This is why my GG staning is only found in Jennie and Suzy. Two legends that are good on their own and whom i have full confidence in. Meanwhile yalls favs have shelf lives that are the same as their contract renewals(less than that majority of the time) Relying on GP support is slippery cause unless they have Jennies natural IDGAF attitude they die by it and that is why yall are always so feral cause every comeback really might really be their last cause thats what their career is built on. This is why BG even eith their floppery feel much more secure for both their stans and the members. 

 

NJ LS and IVE just seem so bleh to me even if they are smashing, it just doesn't really feel sustainable especially for IVE. AESPA and ITZY have the stanbase to save them but because so much of GG life relies on GP support if they arent smashing digitally it always feels like its the end for them. Looking at last years messes is a perfect example cause Garam, LOONA, Aespa and RV releases and anything Wonyoung does really gets to ggs and thats because in my opinion GG stans are so much harsher to their favs than BG stans are. Just miserable living really. Having a Boy Group like stanbase the way BP does>>>>>>>

It’s not 2019 anymore. GG are selling as much as BG. Literally we got like 7 GG last year pulling 1M sales even NMIXX despite their terrible charting can sell. 
the reason why LSR and IVE are famous is because they got 4 Izone girlies. WY is one of the most popular idols, Sakura has been in the industry for a decade. Chaewon and Yujin are growing up their popularity. Like let’s be frR 

 

Itzy with their floppiest single sold 900k albums. 
 

Stamp on It flopping. Not even at 1M views after almost 12 hours :rip:

Curious how love dive would sound in Japanese :gaycat5:

 

 

Japanese releases of songs that already did well on their own are so dumb. Just promote an original song. It's so lazy. Love Dive already did well in Japan to not need or want to do a Japanese version as a single.

It's aespa stans that think that GOT the beat is some kind of BoA evil making to delay their comeback, as if aespa is the one that had their activities cut short because of this group. They've been on this vitriol on twitter aswell.

It's so annoying to see, bc any of us girls that know BoA can see she doesn't want to be there that much :skull: 

boy groups have male privilege and can do whatever they want

it’s not the girls’ fault that they are affected by patriarchy and everything is much harder for them :cm:

Yujin has one of the worst vocal tones I have ever heard, I'm sorry but it's just not it. That ending part in "My Satisfaction" where she was screaming was very unpleasant.

Gaeul >>>> Yujin, it is what it is..

They need to give more lines to Bad Gyal, like her part in "After Like" didn't go viral for no reason :clap3:

First you say Momo > Jihyo and now this mess. In what world gaeul is better than Yujin (I’m the 1st Gaeul defender but let’s not be delusional)

 

i want IVE to succeed but it’s getting weird I can’t defend them all the time.

They got lucky with Step back, a new lineup winter Karina and Taeyeon can’t carry all the time. Wasting the two money makers for a flop group which will not even be platinum.

And let’s not pretend that boy group stans aren’t the most awful. Name a fanbase in history more dramatic and worse than ELFs and ARMY. I’ll wait :skull: 

 

You should scroll through blink Twitter sometime.  It’s a ride :dies:

Original songs always tank. Not even twice Japanese singles smash compared to their korean cb. TT Japanese version was a huge hit. :gaycat5:

The way you have to pretend that we’re the ones who are aggressive and full of misery when you have disgusting views and feel like you have the right to body shame a 17 year old who has literally done nothing wrong. You’re projecting here and it really makes you look like a disgusting misogynist. Fix it, sis.

 

The boy groups are beyond irrelevant. When was the last time we had a “Sorry Sorry” or a “Love Scenario” or a “Ring Ding Dong?” Male groups are at an all-time low in history currently for the market share they make up in K-pop. The only thing males had over females was commercial viability and even that’s slipping because the boys aren’t making good music like they used to and nobody is bothering to learn who they are.

 

And let’s not pretend that boy group stans aren’t the most awful. Name a fanbase in history more dramatic and worse than ELFs and ARMY. I’ll wait :skull: 

As i said, Misery! This place is filled with GG stans and they have literally never been nice to girl groups either but IM the bad guy for saying what yall always say??? And as if this place isn't unnecessarily nasty to boy groups especially those with minors themselves, we talk about BGs for a page and yall act like we the MRA, calm down. I really Don't GAF because i just made an observation and here your ass go quoting proving my point, this is why i just come in and comment and celebrate DREAMS success cause what the hell is being accomplished by arguing with you about any of this?

 

Boy Groups are ALWAYS going to be doing their thing no matter what ur unnecessarily aggressive ass says cause they are going to continue to sell out stadiums and arenas and its not misogynistic to say that. You know whats misogynistic? coming for stanbases that are mostly female and saying what they're into is bad. You were quite literally in an asinine stanfight pages ago and you come at me for rightfully talking about how these 4th ggs are in trouble for having stans like you.

Tbh all the SMTOWN videos are flopping, Stamp on It is the one with the most views.

I feel like doing another virtual concert now that covid measures are lax and things are getting back to normal was pointless.

Only OMG can dethrone Ditto from the charts at this rate

The way you gagged them omg :santa:

Boy groups are still more profitable than girl groups, since album sales and touring is where the real money is at, and that's where boy groups shines the most. This doesn't apply to BP, TWICE, aespa, ITZY though, since they have that "boy group fanbase" secured, and even in their supposed "flop eras" are still outselling these other new rookies that people are token stanning right now :dies:

I'm both a gg and bg stan, but some of these self hating misogynistic baguettes need to chill and stop dragging boy groups, simply for having pen!ses.

The other day they came for our asses for discussing about NCT in here, as if boy groups aren't a big part of Kpop as well  :biblio: They are honestly no different from these misogynistic female Armys dragging BP 24/7 just for being females. 

As i said babe we talk about a boy group for literally half a page and these pitbulls have an aneurysm. You'd think we were dragging their faves the way they drag OTHER ggs. Had a cackle when that user called me misogynist as if the nastiest VILEST pro ana garbage talking points don't come from GG stans themselves. They are the real misogynists cause they hate on boy groups cause they have majority female fanbases. You will NEVER catch me taking a hypocritical GG stans words seriously, my favs are performing in arenas while yours are performing in THEATERS pipe down!

This just isn't anything new. You can't releases something in the same vein as Step Back and expect to to garner the same response. It's old now. 

 

Idk why they went for the exact same vibe. SM's decisions are so insufferable lately :rip:

Original songs always tank because they put no effort into them.

 

Compare the quality of IZ*ONE's Korean releases with their Japanese. It's like this idea that if it's a Japanese release, the only goal is to get physical sales through handshake events and stuff so no one cares about quality.

 

SNSD and Kara had great Japan careers because they actually put effort into their Japanese releases.

 

Mr. Taxi and Go Go Summer are two of their biggest hits and they're fully original Japanese tracks.

Things are always better and more anticipated the first time. Another 3-4 hour long concert with vocal edited videos of music show-esque stages... there was nothing unique about it.

 

Give us remixes, fun special stages, anything. SM is so bad at doing anything grand and making it a spectacle. They used to be so good at that. Now they can barely put together a decent special stage or end of year remix to any song. It's always just a basic 10 second dance break and then a music show performance.

 

They're by far the most boring company to watch year end.

 

 

As messy as this performance was with it being obvious they had like 2 days to memorize the performance, the fact that SM went from these kind of special stages to just 10 second dance breaks + original music show performance is so disappointing :dies: 

 

One of the most iconic

Bring back the old SM pls

Something happened in SM they really lost their spark 

I used to love everything about that company and now Most of the stuff they do is lackluster :deadbanana4:

 

 

This is the only real good thing that came from that sm concert 

 

:bibliahh:

 

I need gifs :gaycat5:

the choreography is so bad it's honestly not even worth it. I'll wait a couple weeks to stream it with the incredible b-sides

I don't really think BLINK akgaes compare to Army calling Jennie a ***** or Lisa a **** but that's my opinion.
