knetz saying everyone but chaeryeong is pretty enough to be center of itzy but that just doesn’t make sense to me

 

their whole brand is that “it’z different” and chaeryeong, while truly gorgeous imo, has a different look than the typical korean beauty standards, but wouldn’t that just tie into their brand even more?

 

she can be a little more charismatic on stage, but her vocals and dance are the best (or top 2) of the whole group

koreans don't like people who aren't pretty (chaeryeong is stunning btw). its that simple. it's also why her popularity suddenly skyrocketed after she got her nose tuqqqqd for sneakers era.

While I wasn't paying attention...

 

So, it was the "company's decision" for their only visual member who in their last promo had apparently figured out how to sing to leave the group?  Sounds like someone got a better offer.  And being an '03 means she's not too old for an upcoming certain project, either.

complacent stans that dont care about culture are more tired imo. :sistrens:

None of the current girls are stirring the culture. Aespa is good :alexz3:

By your logic, Twice, OMG, Mamamoo and so on were bigger than BP in 2021 :ahh: argue with the wall

? Is aespa on hiatus after the other girls debut??? 

 

2022: Coachella, international expansion, and Girls (Aespa - Wikipedia)

2023–present: First concert tour, "Hold On Tight", and My World

 

You calling me dumb baselessly is serving italics. I sorta expected more from you.

I think the Left & Right collab with Jungkook truly boost his popularity in Korea

Exactly. Charlegend has been a thing in Koria since 2017.

It's a real smash I fear. 

 

The way aespa can amass over half a billion digital points this year, with such sparse releases (1 per year with almost 10 months gap between, as opposed to multiple singles like other groups) is so impressive, despite the obvious mismanagement. 

 

This plus their (record breaking) album sales is testament to their GP and fanbase demand :clap3:

 

Geez no wonder some of the girls are crawling out from the woodwork again. They hate to see the supposedly allegedly fads bouncing back stronger with just 1 SONG  :fan:

 

 

I'm thinking how this girls faves  would fare if they are on Aespas shoes. Almost 1 year with literally nothing, company in shambles, delayed cb etc. so regardless of how many times this thread will drag them. They still won :alexz3:

all we have to do is hope they have good music....it would be really funny if their debut song ended up being that rotten "when i see you getting closer" demo
