Congrats to Newjeans and Ive. They really had an amazing year. 

I see some aespa stans pressed as usual, even lying about which performance has more views... :deadbanana4:

they should focus on streaming "the best performance of the night" instead of coming for other girl groups.

The word on the street is she is coming back "soon", but she has been coming back soon for 1+ year... :marshmallow:

I knew she wouldn’t cb this year bc she was focusing on her acting career and she was filming her drama with Park Bo Gum. Plus she usually take long break between her albums! But we need her now, she needs to revive the charts :jonnycat:

They didn't lie, Newjeans' performance was uploaded 3-4h later. Aespa's performance had more views initially and now it looks like Newjeans' performance is gaining views at a faster pace. Ive's performance is also about to cross 1M views, it's not like one video is a lot more popular than another :deadbanana4: I watched all performances and I'm sure many did too.

You always have that superior complex about their vocals when ALL of them lip synced and got their mics OFF, like  :deadbanana4:

I know i have said this before already, but I love how logical and passionate you are about aespa, but most importantly, I love how you don’t demean other acts and don’t focus on what other acts “lack” instead of just praising aespa or your other faves (unlike certain user we see here on the daily). :clap3:

Thanks!  :bird:  It's good to know my essays don't look completely insane. btw do you know the answer to the Mingyu post on the last page? :celestial5: If hes stanning her, I'm making new calculations and want to add him to the tasteful members line

She just surpassed IU’s touring record a few months ago. Taeyeon’s ODD live Tour became the top female soloist tour in Kpop. So yes.

Anyway not their fault if they actually have the vocals to back it up, lipsynch or not and it's not my fault if some users here are bothered :heart:

I mean even if she can't surpass IU in over all metrics. 

 

Being #2 isn't that bad knowing Korea will flip on women and move on to the next one :matty:

Honestly it doesn’t matter, UI is the biggest kpop act in korea ever so can’t be compared tbh. Taeyeon is the biggest female soloist obvs

Tbf IU had years to build her empire as a soloist whilst Taeyeon had to share spotlight and maintain balance  with other 8/7 other girls. It took her 8 years to finally be the Beyoncé that she is :pancake:

Yeah I don’t think Taeyeon is ever touching the number of hits IU has. But Tae is growing every year more globally. And her popularity in Korea hasn’t waned at all.

That's absolutely fine. Both women can coexists :clap3:

 

When you think about it. None of their contemporaries sans Suzy can even compare to Soshi individually so IU is the easiest pick.

For sure they're one of those users secretly getting their kii's when aespa were lashed off left and right here. 

 

I can see through the hypocrisy, they really thought :matty:

August 21st 2023, Taeyeon’s 5th Tour “The ODD Love” surpass IU’s 2019 record and became the most attended Concert for a Korean female soloist. With only 12 Shows she broke a touring record of Kpop trying to purchase  tickets at the 120,000 Super Dome in Taiwan selling out in 3 Minutes. :clap3: 
mind you this was literally just this summer. And now she has a Top 2 hit today. 
Put respect on the Kings Name.

She surpassed IU tour record from 2019.
 

Others than that I don’t see how she’s slowly gaining on her? It’s actuality the opposite imo, when in 2021, Lilac sold more physicals albums.

Globally IU became bigger than Taeyeon

Yeah that was my point. She is Slowly gaining on her. If you surpass someone in an area. That’s kinda the definition 

IU is not even Taeyeon's peer so this comparison between them don't make sense. One has been a soloist since Day 1 whilst the other is in a group for years :coffee2:

Has anybody noticed that the nearly decade old IU vs Taeyeon discourse is always perpetuated by noise music boy group fans or SNSD rival GG stans and never uaena most the time? I've never met a normal person that partakes in this faux rivalry. :deadbanana4:
