I remember this review of Pinkchella saying festival bookers are looking for their successors as the genre keeps on growing and growing and Gen 3 proved that they can be headliners and live up to the hype

 

Lolla just opened a loooooot of performing doors for NJ in the West, they proved their pull power :celestial5:

    some of the new members not giving new at all 

Hanni's most likely going to be announced as a global ambassador to Chaumet next :jonny:

Gucci :clap3:

Armani Beauty :clap3:

Chaumet :clap3:

 

 

“The Flash” is definitely the musical highlight of the week. “TGIF” has such an amazing video, but the chorus and hook were not there like they needed to be.

Does anyone know why Hanni seems to have the biggest global pull? Also brand wise? She seems to be in every campaign :deadbanana4: I’m guessing she’s the best networker of the bunch but also she’s just 18, is it because she’s SEA?

 

 

This sounds so good, too bad it will debut with 1 stream because MYS are too busy complaining about Newjeans

Like literally I don't care about New Jennies and few others has been praising them on this very thread. 

 

 

What's up with this weird combo of mentioning Aespa and the MYs every other second?    :foxaylove2:

I would guess it's because she's really charismatic both on stage and off + she speaks English which is an advantage

 

but all the girls are doing well for themselves and bagging brand endorsements left & right. Global Coca-Cola ambassadors with their ads being played in front of Barbie :clap3:

Not GD fans hoping that his brand flops so he can release new music ... Is this how @Zack feel for miss Jessica... 

 

I hope she does flop if she gives us another Call Me Before You Sleep.

Jessica tour agreement is rumored to be signed this week and she's filming her MV/comeback in Korea and Japan...the album seems to be coming (finally)

 

So luckily not for me, though her brand is one of her dreams so I'm glad it's doing so well and open for 10 years next year :clap3:

We love a successful woman in her 30s doing what she loves :clap3:

TGIF would have been a 10 with a stronger chorus. 
But the girls whew. Strongest lineup ever :WAP:

Revisiting these performances by VOCALIST Joy. 

She has great control of her voice and a really distinctive tone. There's a reason her OST smashed :clap3:

The fact Baemon is finally debuting next month but there's like negative hype :deadbanana4:  interested to see how the BP renewal news affect when they start the official rollout :matty:

The way all the RUNext performances are so gay-coded with all the cvnty dance breaks, the vougeing and dip in the Tell Me stage is sending me :jonny6:

So some = / = all MYs :priceless:

 

 

Tbf NJ are just your standard kpop girls when it comes to singing so I guess some of them made several points :cm:

 

 

Nothing about BM hypes me :skull: The numbers of girls, the ‘hiphop’ approach, YG management, more Teddy music

 

But let’s see

A bop idc what other ppl say :jonny: I really like Raye's demo too (and her previous album while we're at it). Let's support this indie legend :clap3: 

 

it sounds a lot better than the demo

I do think the chorus still seems a little boring?

perched for the full song tho

Aespa and Mys are constantly drag here for every tiny reasons but there's certainly have double standards for specific groups in this thread. You don't praise them or you'll get labeled as jealous HaTeRs1!  :redface:

 

 

 

 

 

Anyway Herstory will be made tomorrow :gaylorcat2:

I mean all 5 of those are already kinda slaying so there’s plenty to focus on for SK

 

Then there’s also Itzy and Nmixx… being there, so there’s little need for even more groups 

Nobody cares about Kpop acts except Kpop fans. Fans and companies trying to pretend otherwise look silly.

 

But there are a lot of Kpop fans in the West now. It'll continue to be a big lucrative touring market.

 

As for songs that penetrate the public consciousness well, K-POP has only achieved that twice from the most unexpected acts: Psy and Fifty Fifty.

 

Everything else is mediaplay and fan-driven.
