if there’s any group that have a chance of surpassing blackpink in any way I’m happy it may be newjennies! I’ve already accepted their dominance and power potential :WAP:

I’m sorry but no other group comes close to them and it’s not only the music but mainly their energy! the chemistry, the energy, the presence! 

 

it’s that they aren’t trying to outdance each other or focusing too much on giving the best performance and looks - they are VIBING! that sets them miles apart and will make them interesting for western audience 

Exactly! Their dance practice are also simple af no zoom on members or cuts is just them dancing how is supposed to be a dance practice :clap3:

 

They are so fun to watch you can clearly see they enjoy what they are doing and their chemistry as a group is perfect :heart:

 

Them on variety are also so fun and you can see they are real friends is so easy to notice and I'm sure I'm not the only one who can get all that energy from them. 

 

They deserve everything :jonny5:

Bts going on hiatus is going to be so good for the industry. Every single boy band has been living in their shadow since 2018. Especially groups in the same company like Enhypen and TXT. I get the feeling that lists of groups, especially TXT, ENHYPEN, Stray Kids, and NCT Dream area really going to shine with BTS out of the way. It's a great feeling :duca:

Which GG has the most iconic moment, why is it WJSN debut week entrance to a music show?

 

 

 

The fact that at the time they only sold 49 albums and their fans were already THAT dedicated. :deadbanana2:

Iconic ajsjs

This always kills me because they had plenty of space but that girl decided to lean on the other one :lmao:

HYPE is truly the biggest winner and by a huge margin too - in every metric. JYP is sorta the biggest loser domestically with that failed launch of a new GG and not a single group scoring any smash besides Nayoncê POP. SM is the biggest loser globally; their screaming stats are embarrassing in comparison to the other big groups. 

YG is a money laundering company so we will leave it out!

Help what is this :deadbanana2:

 

Am I the only one tired of BoA shuffling her feet in these GOT stages and looking disinterested? Doesn't she have some vanity title at SM? She doesn't have to do these Kwangya MCU copyright infringement escapades. Then again, the streets are saying my untouchable maestro of music Max Changmin might be joining SperM so maybe the vets really aren't safe. At least that group would be more interesting. 

finally caught up to Babymonster stuff and my goodness the group and the announcement is truly giving D-lister. yg is so over.

I can already feel the real battle will be baemon and newjeans for the throne ww :coffee2:

 

Baemon will destroy everything on YouTube and newjeans will win in music stream :gaycat5:

No other girl group has had a peak cultural moment like SNSD did with The Boys. They broke through most of the markets, outsold the male groups and gave us a timeless K-pop song. If that’s the criteria you want to compare to, BP, TWICE, BTS, IU, etc. haven’t had a cultural moment like The Boys, either.

 

Red Velvet were #11 on the digital year end chart and sold 2M+ physicals 8 years into their career. No other girl group has ever managed that. 

The way you have to scream “deluluv” like I wasn’t a Red Velvet hater when they first debuted. I have no problem claiming that Red Velvet was a clone group of f(x), but for some reason when you mention that BlackPink, the most obvious clone group in K-pop along with (G)-IDLE, is a clone of 2NE1, the Blinks foam at the mouth.

 

Maybe you girls deserve the constant shelving of projects and dated Teddy productions. Truly an awful fanbase. And I’m sure you’ll turn on NewJeans the minute you realize that the Min Hee Jin’d group is outpacing BlackPink’s career the way your fanbase turned on Aespa when it became clear they were outpacing BP, too :coffee2: 

Dynamite is literally right there :deadbanana2:

and you pathetic deluluvs deserve whatever nonsensical noise with high pitched nasal chipmunk vocals and screeches music with clown amusement park aesthetic sm gives red velvet. cause god knows you will eat it up anyways and just call it "exPerimEntaL" just to justify everything :rip: 

 

and you know what? yall honestly deserve yeri too :rip: 

 

 

Red Velvet at least served a good title this year and an excellent B-side (In My Dreams). They had a member participate on “Time After Time” which is better than any solo project BlackPink has ever gotten. BlackPink had their worst year creatively (Shut Down is their worst title in years and Pink Venom was a dull rehash, most of their album was rehashes of The Album or just unlistenable) and their commercial growth wasn’t good this year at all.

 

And the Yeri hate isn’t hitting from you when you stan Jisoo. Yeri and Jisoo are just as “useless” as each other. If you want to drag Yeri’s talent and place in the group, why are you stanning a group with Jisoo? :toofunny2:

It just means that the awful fanbase will move on to a new act. It’s what happens with military service refreshing the top male group - the toxic fans find somebody new (see: Super Junior, Big Bang, etc.). We have a new supreme coming.

It wasn’t good in the slightest and BTS came way too late in Hallyu to break any of these markets. They were just the lucky act who got to benefit from what Hallyu had already done.
