I'm thinking of creating a poll thread asking what's your 4th and 4.5 gen or whatever is called kpop male idol cuz i think Atrl has a few favorites, also I'm not super good at wording thread titles. 

 

candidates:

Sunoo 

Hanbin

Zhang Hao

Jiwoong

Huening Kai

 

who else? 

 

Sunoo for the win

 

 

 maybe wait until RIIZE debuts?

so now HYBE bought the rest of the 51% of BE:lift lab shares, what do we expect with ENHYPEN and the new iland-2 GG? 

It looks like they bought 2% more to get ~51% with CJENM still retaining ~49%.  And RUNexit is the "ILand2" group from 2022 that never made it on to Mnet.  The ILand2 group which are holding new auditions right now in 2023 is now a CJENM property and probably will just replace the Planet shows, but we'll see.

 

EDIT: Nope, Bighybe has 100% of Belift now.  But everything else is accurate.  We'll see. @Selenasworld

the way every time an aespa comeback is nearing this thread will be hyping giselle up to the heavens only to drop and drag her after

it's becoming a cycle

 

 

is this the REAL WORLD? or is it a beachy KWANGYA?

anyway they look stunning and I love the use of colors

As far as we know, they are currently still in REAL WORLD 

 

I don't know what's going on with the storyline now that LSM has been dumped though, since he was the one pushing all this the most. Maybe we won't find out until their next comeback or naevis debut (which is currently delayed, but allegedly still happening)

[FACT]

Queendom Posse will have at least 3 switched members Im sensing Hwiseo and Kei downfall

LTS video had nothing to do with Kwangya so i think their English single is out of the storyline

You really tried it by leaving out Visual Bible Lee Knowes and Vocal Bible Kim Woojin

 

the ZB1 boys have potential but they just debuted so let’s give them some time before we include them in any of these lists

 

[Save-Me-Oprah]

Is Kang Daniel 3rd or 4th gen

Yes it did, it was just more subtle like Spicy. The ae-aespa members appear at the beginning (KARINA texting them updates), there's also the hints to SMCU ep.2 with the emojis etc. plus the video appears to be set in (or at least hinting) at aespa going (back) to REAL WORLD. The teasers for the song were also in REAL WORLD style.

It's just a subunit

They're basically a female version of NCT but with better music

[Save-Me-Oprah]

If we’re talking overall raw talent and capability, Stray Kids Han is objectively the top 4th gen idol

He’s actually 3rd I forgot 

[Witnessed ET]

Jesus she’s such a fuckin STAR!  Her dream is finally being realized after 19 years in that company. This is your moment girl, one of the best all-rounders in kpop
 

why does track #2 sound like a better title track material than the actual one though

oppa’s shoulders are so wide they span both 3rd and 4th gens

Aespa has been hard carrying SM this year tbh. EXO & Shinee are legends, but thier comebacks came and went so fast I almost forgot about them. And I’m a Sheep

 

we need Red velvet and Taeyeon comebacks for the culture

SM's release plan this year has been disgustingly unfair to the girls this year. Counting digital singles, minis and full albums (involving SM idols only...)

 

Boys: NCT 127 >  NCT Dream > Key (SHINee) > Onew (SHINee) > Kai (EXO) > NCT Dream > Mark (NCT) > EXO > NCT DJJ > Taeyong (NCT) > EXO > NCT Dream > SHINee > EXO > NCT Dream > NCT 2023 > RIIZE (and I even left out SJ and TVXQ releases)

 

Girls: GOT The Beat > aespa > aespa
