Oh, it actually is. It gives me like, alone in a city apartment, rain pattering on the window kind of vibe. But I don't understand most of the lyrics, so.

 

Who is the dude with the ripped sweater and ugly jorts? I really like his tone.

Whew, he's so handsome. Brooding, dark eyes, a whole world of mystery waiting to be unwrapped I'm sure. :jonnycat:

idk if the industry could ever be saved if HYBE or his bandmates with twisted body image ever pressure Kai into getting any plastic surgery

Interesting video analyzing itzy and the potential future of the 4th gen

 

I see itzy's fate potentially being new jeans's or aespa's if the market becomes oversaturated with the y2K or cyber nft concept

I don't think they'll conform with korean shows, XG is doing great with the international fans if the Boyz, Loona, Dreamcatcher and KARD all toured last year I believe XG could do much better if they do their job

The members are well known enough, Yuna and Chaeryoung having hot moments over the last year proves that. Unlike Twice they haven’t over saturated their image so I still think there is a chance they could bounce back. 
 

JYP just needs a decent song and focus on the performance side since that’s what they excel at..

Fraudzy needs to disband. We don't want it.

Wonyoung's wig is not safe. 100k+ more to surpass her.

i think their downfall was more than their concept being popular though. it's not like that stopped blackpink when everyone was doing girl crush, or twice (until recently) when everyone was going for the cute/innocent vibe.

i really don't think it's more than their concept coming off as too repetitive (le sserafim for example talk about being confident in less direct/cringy ways and no one complains), the music being bad/title track choices being questionable, competition from other 4th gen groups and lack of solo promotion :skull:

I hope they mainly target Japan and the West. I feel like they have more potential there. It seems like there are many Japanese people who are proud of them and want to support! Especially since there aren't many Japanese groups like XG with the way they carry and present themselves. There just needs to be a bigger push. I'm excited for potential Japanese and Korean releases this year, maybe even a proper American debut? :duca:

I think XGALX's strategy is strange so far. Who are they actually aiming to? Who is the core audience? They are an all-Japanese girl group, yet don't promote in Japan. They have a Korean production team and promote in Korea, yet don't sing in Korean. They don't promote internationally, yet only sing in English. 

 

I'd also question if a Korean XG release is the best idea after their CEO's comments about Korea/K-Pop and the backlash. They would be better to partner with a western label and try to appear on international shows instead, to increase streaming numbers/sales.

 

In Japan, it would be a very difficult battle against Nogizaka46, Perfume, AKB48 etc. which is why I think XGALX turned to Korea/internationally in the first place.

They're not targeting any country in specific, just the kpop niche itself. Basically just using the kpop system to be succesful within its fanbase... without being kpop, just look at what the avex ceo said about them
