    some of the new members not giving new at all 

I'm actually hyped about another SM girl group. I hate the idea of aespa being the sole gg for a few years as RV goes into that "one comeback every few years" phase after the 10th year

If we go by sales alone then yeah, aespa STOMPS, but if we take everything into consideration then I'm not that far fetched. And I'm saying this as an aespa stan

aespa literally have a fandom 10x the size of the other ones combined 

4th Gen Success Overall:

1. ITZY

2. IVE

3. IZ*ONE

4. Aespa

5. (G)-IDLE

6. NewJeans

7. LE SSERAFIM

8. STAYC

9. Kep1er

10. NMIXX

 

Aespa, IVE and NewJeans are currently fighting for the top spot while LESSERAFIM is a solid fourth and (G)-IDLE are in fifth.

A loyal one at that...something other 4th gen gg lack even with their tiny fandoms

The same goes for ITZY though then. If aespa had better global streams then they would be way higher, but maybe they should switch places with GIDLE.

This is honestly the only correct way to look at it, just like how it's done in the West where they look at the overall numbers in terms of who's surpassed who and not who's the hottest artist right now

The only thing stopping aespa from those "global streams" is the type of music they make which is not gp compatible (like nobody is gonna stream a dubstep dance break that's 40 seconds long). Also aespa's fandom is double the size of Itzy's :skull:

I think aespa should be higher in the success list, the rest I think it is ok.

The quality list is cleary subjective as far I can see...

You put a group with 4 songs and only two good songs in your top 5 that’s insane.

Not XG's fault that they keep releasing 10/10's :devil:

I cant take "artists" who release nursery rhymes seriously :redface:

 

and I can't believe korean netizens are stanning it :deadbanana4: I'm guessing this nursery rhyme isn't very known in korea? 

Chile not the civil war in Once fandom atm :rip: it’s I-Once vs K-Once (they want to boycott twice since they promoted in the US instead of Korea). And they just announced their tour :rip:

 

 

Western Stan accounts promoting Twice to block that country singer.

 

and then miley stan accounts supporting BP (cause Twice predicted to beat her in BB200?)

 

And Japan is choosing the English version over the Korean one…

 


These promotions are so messy :rip:
