You’re missing the point entirely. Boy groups thrive off of a small niche of super dedicated fans who bulk buy and use Stationhead to manipulate streaming numbers whereas girl groups thrive off of appealing to the general public. I’m not using Korea to state that it is the end-all, be-all for music markets - I’m just pointing out that they’re the only market in the entire world that weeds out fraudulent streams and mass fanbase streams. 4th Gen boy groups literally don’t exist outside of their dedicated fanbases.
 

Does ENHYPEN have a larger fanbase than STAYC? Yes. Is ENHYPEN known outside of that fanbase? No. Does ENHYPEN have a single song that is known by a member of the GP? No. Does ENHYPEN have a song known by K-pop fans outside of their fanbase? No. Girl groups don’t have the luxury to be so irrelevant to the GP because they have to sell music. It’s called privilege that ENHYPEN, with 0 hits and 0 GP appeal, can outsell STAYC, with four hits and plenty of GP appeal.

The fact that you chose Enhypen for this comment when they actually have on of the most popular 4th gen bg songs that will probably chart next year when spring time hits like it did this year is so

And the better song was chosen
This however should've been saved for Twice instead of Knock Knock

 

The fact that he gave a temporary group an absolutely massive banger like this and not his main group is criminal.

I like the NewJeans girls a lot (especially Haerin and Minji). That said, I think Pinkpantheress should sue.

NingNing, Yuna, Yunjin, Soyeon, Ryujin are the top 5 of 4th gen girls stage presence-wise methinks (random order)

Yujin should also be in this list.

I’m not going to lie, you had me in the first half thinking I missed some hit from them. Then I Googled “Polaroid Love” and it turns out it’s another certified bomb to the GP.

 

Polaroid Love - 28,849,841 (1/10/22)

 

Good luck to these boys on getting their Teddy Bear.

It was the best charting 4th gen bg song in thr year it was released and actually managed to rechart this year during the spring time. It will also probably rechart next year during thr spring time. Not a huge smash hit but Enhypen actually manged to chart with that song.

 

The example would have worked better with like... Cravity is all I'm saying.

The way I never pay attention to Ateez, their songs always comes to me via shuffle. 

But their song Crazy Form is a BOP.

A hobby of mine is looking up Wonyoung shorts on youtube

 

- “Netizens claim Wonyoung is alien due to GOALS body proportions”

 

- “Scientists claim Wonyoung’s head is smaller than a raisin”

 

 - “Netizens are GAGGED by Wonyoung’s visual toes length”

Ryujin?! I was thinking if from ITZY, it would be Yeji or even Yuna

I think it's cause they blend in with other boy groups. So no matter which k-pop BGG you stan, Spotify algorithm will recommend you Ateez songs once in a while during autoplay

 

For instance, the Crazy Form song sounds straight-up from Skz's playbook. Even the music video reminds me of Skz (although I kinda prefer this copy from the original )

I wonder how these Netizens will react when the good sis is actually gaining weight and looks normal and healthy. Not this skinny.

I was scared he would be a feature in IU's song. Thankfully, he's just a guest star in her video

 

I have a feeling it would be boring as hell if V is actually in the song

I don't know how to explain it but Babymonster isn't a real group atp and Riize is.

Omg the 1st one, his ass be popping off! Wearing a suspender must be a REQUIREMENTS for Scoups every time he performs, do it Pledis 

 

 

This slaps so hard! 

His ass is a work of art, but the thing about Seventeen is that they have the beauty AND the talent to back it up

It's actually weird seeing him that skinny Not meaning this in a rude way, he just looks different. Watching their old videos is always kind of weird bc they've changed so much since then and I'm not used to it

He still looks good there but I think he just bulked up a lot over the years. His pre-debut videos in the dorm were so different, but back then everyone was skinny/growing kids…and Scoups being the oldest always looked bigger than the rest lol

[Dialamba]

IU coming back, daesangs cancelled for the other girls

He's an ex ROMEO member.
