The industry and fans are so colorist that unnaturally pasty clumped mismatched bb cream is considered a better look than glowing tan skin

is gidle officially bigger than 4minute?

Yes if you're just talking about the groups. If you add HyunA's activities during the time to the mix, I would say no.

Trying to calculate how many of these 5000 pages are just my posts 

 

Every page is 25 posts. 5003 pages * 25 posts = 125 075 posts + 14 posts on the 5004th page = 125 089 posts.

You have 7 441 posts in this thread.

7 441 / 125 089 * 100% = ±5.95%

 

You are 5.95% of this entire thread.

The 20 best songs of 2023

3. NewJeans –Super Shy

The thunderous trap or light funk still used by plenty of K-pop artists has felt very tired with the advent of girl group NewJeans (plus open-minded peers such as Aespa and Fifty Fifty), and Super Shy is fresher than a lightly spritzed bushel of mint. 4AD’s avant-pop star Erika de Casier co-writes, and the production sits somewhere between liquid drum’n’bass, UK garage and Jersey club – all touchstones elsewhere in pop this year, but synthesised here with a vocal hook beamed straight from pop heaven. The lyrics profess acute shyness but their delivery suggests otherwise: it’s actually a cute eyelash-batting flirtation. BBT

 

The Guardian

Critics love Min HeeJin's work, first with f(x) and Red Velvet, now with Newjeans

One of the most gorgeous women to ever grace the industry. Absolutely beautiful face and my favorite nose in kpop

Welcome to the life of a neverland.

 

Mind you Soyeon said she referenced Beyonce and Destiny's Child for both MAMA and Jingle Bell Ball but Blinks still thinking it's about BP.

This song has cocain, crack, meth, weed in it. It's so addictive for no reason.

newjeans needs to change up their visuals quick. NJ1 era was more aesthetically pleasing than NJ2

Pre tomboy I'd consider 4minute still ahead. Hot issue/What's Your Name are bigger than anything Idle did before 2022 and 4minutes lesser hits were equal/or bigger to Idle's songs up until Tomboy. I'd say they passed up 4minute with Tomboy-Nude-Queencard back to back. Gidle feels like a top main girl group. 4minute was like 6/7/8 in the gg hierarchy back in the day. A group to watch out for, but was a solid tier below the likes of 2NE1/SNSD ect. 

Discussion gets a little more complicated cause Hyuna's solo(duo) career ran right along side 4minute all those years. Feels weird to include in the discussion since they are separate, but also not with how intertwined they are. Hot Issue, Change, Bubble Pop, Troublemaker, Gangnam Style, What's Your Name, Now, Lots of CF Deals, Controversy. Even Hyuna's less successful stuff like Crazy, Red, Roll Deep are iconic and are more remembered than a lot of bigger hits. Hyuna had people talking every week between her styling, performances, music videos, commercials, or the Hyuna vs 4minute talks. She was a force back then. People downplay it now, but she was an It girl for many years. Not many idols were more talked about than her between the years 2010 to 2015/16.

I actually like Sonar. The mix up isn’t disjointed either. The pink scene sent me, lowkey camp need to listen again!

So true. Hyuna was Bigger then some mid tier kpop groups alone
She was touring America Venues by herself. I got my tickets for her Chicago Show in 2017 to prove. Back in college everyone here was calling her the Gangnam style girl. Bubble Pop & Ice Cream was such an Event!  
 

I made a post when QueenCard dropped, saying Gidle pass 4Minute. Gidle been serving back to back hits.
