It's wild that few years ago TWICE used to outsell RV by 2,3x times I actually think RV is bigger than Twice domestically RN since they are still getting hits (sans birthday) but Twice has other markets (hihi Japan and the US) which make them still a huge group overall. Speaking of, why doesn’t SM let the girls tour Psycho has always been quite close to Fancy in streams ( both International Klassics), so it’s not really catching up per se. Twice also has WIL over 300m with The Feels, FS and ICSM nearly at 300M I actually like both groups and think they have very different careers RN.

"Maniac" is everything what HYBE wanted for their 4th gen bgs to pull off but couldn't. Stray Kids are able to pull the dark and intimidating concept that the HYBE boy groups just can't. Like when comparing SKZ, TXT and ENHYPEN's releases last year which has somewhat the same concept, you can see how SKZ eats them up effortlessly. With SKZ it feels natural, while with the other 2 it feels forced. Though I must say that ENHYPEN are way better at pulling off the tough bad boy concept than TXT. I swear every time I enter the thread you're writing paragraph long rants about how Stray Kids are better than TXT accompanied with poorly embedded videos and images. Like do you not get tired...
Lightbringer007 Posted January 19, 2023 Posted January 19, 2023 The GOT performance was a serve! Wendy, Seulgi and Karina in particular really brought the energy, sass and vocals!

LuneMon Posted January 19, 2023 Posted January 19, 2023 I agree. I think groups were every member could be the visual member like TXT, EXO or NCT dont really fit the bad boy concept, thats why BTS, Stray kids, ATEEZ or Big Bang where most their members have an unusual type of beauty usually nail that concept. Also those groups usually have someone with a very low voice like TOP, RM or Felix.

Green Tea Is Green Posted January 19, 2023 Posted January 19, 2023 I guess this confirms there's gonna be no promo All members are on vacation right now, Tzuyu in Taiwan, J-line in Japan, Jihyo in Thailand (although she's with managers so she might have a schedule there after her free time? Hyolo is coming )

The context of this scandal was mainly about systematic manipulation of medical records so they can serve on lighter military duty like public service worker (which Ravi currently did right now) or getting exempted from military enlistment. A whole mess. I mean, it would have been better if he just went instead of finding ways to manipulate it.

Though I must say that ENHYPEN are way better at pulling off the tough bad boy concept than TXT. ---------- "Case 143" is literally their worst title track and I'm honestly shocked that it's such a big hit in Japan This also explains why they are coming out with a Japanese studio album next month. "Maniac" blew up in China and made them the most popular 4th gen group in China along with aespa. Hyunjin has the biggest C-bar after Karina and Winter. I wonder how well their next comeback is going to do this year, since they were able to snatch China and Japan on their side last year. Though SKZ were always popular in Japan since 2020, when they released "TOP" which is the longest charting top 10 song on Oricon by a Korean act ------ Do you stan SKZ or a you casual listener? Who's your bias? What are your favorite songs from them? It’s not that ENHYPEN can’t pull off the tough bad boy concept, as Blessed-Cursed and Drunk-Dazed are more or less on the same lane, but the reason their recent comeback fell flat was because of the song quality. Pass the Mic is trash compared to their otherwise stellar discography. Maybe SKZ and Ateez can get away with releasing subpar material like that since they’ve built their image with that sound and their stans expect it by now, but for an act like ENHYPEN who has serving quality after quality in a more melody-driven and structurally pleasant music, it’s not gonna work.

Speaking of, why doesn’t SM let the girls tour Yeah this is probably a fair assessment. RV has indisputably been performing better on domestic digital and physical channels, where as TWICE has stagnated/declined. But internationally there's no doubt TWICE has kept growing a lot, whereas international is not a factor for RV because SM refuses to promote them, despite clear demand and interest, it's quite odd. Touring is another thing SM keeps ignoring for RV, despite obvious demand. Also, JYP management is actually really good/maybe even overkill, whereas SM's management is horrible/lazy, they need to fix that this year.
TanjiroKamado Posted January 19, 2023 Posted January 19, 2023 Any tea on why Jinni left JYP? The way she left was shocking...it was so abrupt, no one saw it coming.
Babymomo Posted January 19, 2023 Posted January 19, 2023 (edited) Can i just say its HILARIOUS the clear divide on the discourse of BGs and GGs is ?? Like yall literally never quote each other its so obvious to tell who is a BG and or GG stan But i love it cause this thread finally has enough BG stans to discuss them, no annoying halting from GG stans anymore, at least for now. Such a breath of fresh to the usual k-trl script ( and honestly the discussions and drags are more fun, funnier and more interesting to read ) Edited January 19, 2023 by Babymomo

TanjiroKamado Posted January 19, 2023 Posted January 19, 2023 (edited) I wonder what the future holds for ITZY and NMIXX. Cheshire didnt even manage to chart, they might get dropped from their label or forced into disbandment if their next comeback performs just as bad. NMIXX is in an even worse state, they literally have nothing for them. Their most popular member leaving messed things up for sure. Things arent looking good for Jay Why Pee.

And I can tell that based on Jeongyeon’s hair length lol. She has a bob now compared to the shorter hair on the teaser pics. and wait, what B sides MV? Unless you’re talking about this being the bside 7 minutes ago, Vrx. said: Momo ate the girls up here this is actually a screenshot from a video clip, not a photoshoot still
