Not Irene 

 

im seriously starting to have concerns over people in here I swear

Irene can actually serve.
 

Jeongyeon and Jihyo always get the worst choruses and take the song down a notch. Compare Sana/Nayeon on Feel Special’s first chorus versus Jeongyeon/Jihyo on the second chorus - the girls just don’t add much due to their lackluster tones  

 

At least Jihyo will serve energy. Jeongyeon feels like token stanning

[Dialamba]

Only on ATRL Irene is hyped as talented. She doesn’t excel in anything.  And she’s mainly popular for her visuals which isn’t a bad thing but you don’t see us acting as if Tzuyu is the most talented idol ever

Not the Feel Special comment again  it's giving one trick pony. Can you come up with something else.gif

 

also no comment on Irene  idk what 'serve' we're talking about when it comes to vocals, but maybe sis should learn what 'support' means before being compared to Jeongyeon

 

also i realized my gif didnt work earlier oop

 

anyway

love them but it’s wild that TWICE ended up with so many filler members even though they had a whole competition show that was apparently supposed to come up with the best of the best

 

the group is very much Jihyo, Nayeon, Jeongyeon, Chaeyoung and their backup dancers

 

not when Momo can dance her ass off 

 

Dahyun might be average in everything but at least sis writes a lot for the group and even composes i guess. perks of being an instrument player

the only true "fillers" in terms of talent are Sana, Mina and Tzuyu...but then again they are some of the most BREATHTAKING beauties in the industry and are decent singers who are stan attractors so there aint no complaints

The fact that Brave Bros bought himself a Rolls Royce the same than Yang Hyun Suk and never used all that money to actually promote his acts.

His collection of classic American muscle cars have their own building.  Brave Girls' USA tour was kinda about him looking at more cars to buy.

Jeongyeon gets dragged enough by gross netizens let's not add to that with mindless trolling. She can sing & is obviously better vocalist than irene, hang up that narrative.

 

In fact despite being a sheep, I reject entirely the narrative that all RV members can sing well. Irene and Yeri are both in the bottom 5 weakest female vocalists from an SM group along with Hyoyeon, Yoona & Victoria.

Wait we’re already on 5th gen? 
 

so 4th gen was only 2 years?

What's wrong with including f(x) they exist in history. As far as I'm concerned miss Song Qian's legacy of shitty vocals remains 

[jeanie]

if we're talking about filler members yeri is actually an example. love miss Katy Kim to death but I don't really see why she was added late to rv. she's not a good vocalist,dancer, rapper or performer. she's very pretty tho but Irene is already there whos more popular and actually is the fotg. she's also bottom 2 in popularity and the only thing that I can say she adds to the group is her excellent humor and variety sense but rv are pretty funny and hilarious already so I really don't see why sm add her

why are y'all acting like rosé flopped?

OTG did well in korea

and probably would've charted even higher if it wasn't for rollin blowin up 

 

it's also a great song

 

 

tell them  

she would be too damn powerful had she released a song like jennie's and lisa's so be thankful she released those passion projects

 

the fact that she was battling with Rollin', IU and that huge trot singer too back then  

 

gone should've been the title track though

the only Blackpink solo that actually BOMBED was LALISA (in Korea at least)

people even gave her a nickname Laloser at first, but then the backfire was so funny to witness with Money smashing 

 LaLoser here LaLoser there everyday then Money suddenly smashed so hard  

the backfire truly was so funny back then

Bella, a soloist, just debuted last week, after 10 years of training, she's 29 years old.

 

 

It's just some people debut later in life.

 

Here's another debut (and this one got on TV to make it official) of a woman who had been a trainee turned employee at assorted agencies for many years.  She's like the unlucky Adora.

 

 

And 30.mp3 .

Teddy Oppa should've given "Dumb Dumb" to Rosé instead. Somi low key felt like she was cosplaying Rosé here, so maybe it was originally meant for Rosé?  Like the song even managed to take Somi's solo career to next level. However they still wasted this bop on Somi (no offense), who's quit music after 5 songs anyways   

Like if Rosé sang this instead, it would've been the biggest BP solo so far 

 

girl, i've been saying since the day this dropped

she cosplayed rosé so hard from her fashion to aesthetics down to the blonde hair  

even the mv and song are very blackpink coded

 

the way rosanna passed on this song to pursue her indie passion project music  

she 100% could've made this song 50x bigger than Somi and this would be closer to SOLO's success by now 

her album would be at 1m too  

 

I love my girl somi but this is the tea

they added her to ruin RV

RV would be so powerful as a foursome they could've been as huge as BP

and they'd sell their rnb music and aesthetics better without that talentless uglee but welp

 

atleast SM learned from shelved perfected aespa though  

[Witnessed ET]

 

i love the choreo so much, its sleek and smooth but still sharp in places

that's because it is during 2018-2021 (especially during pandemic) 3rd gen dominated the market but it's not until last year that 4th gen starts to actually compete with 3rd gen (see nwjns, ive, lsfm, aespa, Stray kids etc.) so yeah we're only entering the peak of 4th gen

I'm not sure if it's on China (since the gov did ban them specifically back when they did the kpop ban) or JYPE being too scared to make a move but yeah, every group out there at least have weibo accounts and with twice... onces had to make a fanpage to upload mvs, teasers, pictures, etc illegally  and in the likes of qq music you can't buy their songs/albums for some reason so all c-onces can do is stream for free 


Now what is this
