Which groups do you think that aren't recognized enough for their achievements?

Seventeen

I'll just say Dreamcatcher d/t their music style and growth since why not

seventeen and mamamoo

Seventeen and Exo(imo)

Agree with Seventeen.

Maybe this is partially biased, but SHINee sometimes imo. Like, we know about the impact they've had on kpop but it's not always talked about I guess. Not on like, a large scale if you feel me.

For the longest all I knew was Shinee has good songs, but nobody really told me the impact Shinee actually had, I had to go find it myself. So yeah, huge agree on Shinee

Wonder Girls as well, Kara too!

Honestly I could go on!

Treasure had the biggest international hit for a 4th gen BG but no one is talking about it

It currently has more day over day Spotify streams than both maniac and Polaroid love

Depending on longevity it might even match Itzy and Ive but yeah that’s some time away.

Cosmic Girls WJSN songs are iconic.

Oh My Girl makes perfection look natural.

idk why u gave me a read reaction in the other thread but i was trying to say loona and dreamcatcher also have stable fanbases

is that so

Brave Girls

Apink? I think we can find quite a few 2nd gen groups..

Seventeen.

Aren't they number 2 Kpop group right now in sales?

mamamoo

Quote from dummi

Every group has the loudest most obnoxious most annoying fans so I'd say none of them, except maybe svt who still gets the sympathy "but seventeen!!1!" when kpop fans discuss big groups. So yeah. None. Except for my faves ofc

But Itzy

Ateez

treasure

NCT because they debuted on late 3rd gen and became big on 4th gen, so when talking about 3rd gen they are usually not included and they aren't on the 4th gen discussions either, despite having 2 units selling more than anyone except BTS.

Brave Girls.

Gained some of the biggest records, no other GG could achieve. Its bin a while since a nugu GG rivaled IU or got digitals as the top big3 combined. In the last year, i also saw no other GG, except maybe Twice, as hard working as them. Still they gained no awards because people barley support or vote for them and they only gain fans slowly.

They delivered the greatest underdog story in Kpop history. Its interesting to follow them and see if the Community turns this opportunity Kpop got, into a good or sad ending.

Ateez, Seventeen. Also, most of 2nd Gen idols

Honestly, Red Velvet.

Psycho is the greatest GG song of all time in my opinion. And i'm absolutely serious.

Nah, its the one neigl! The Bop of all Bops!!

i will wrote the name who have not been mentioned yet

Aespa, it's not because I'm biased but they always getting jumped especially in twitter.

The latest example, stan of other groups questioning why aespa worthy to be featured in Time and it got nearly 22k likes+ counting in one tweet and I haven't mentioned other tweets questioning the same with huge likes too.

but thats not that they dont get recognized enough. The problem Aespa have is that next to all the positive recognition they get. There is way to much negative undeserved recognition.

I mean they aren't recognized enough outside the fandom hence one tweet discrediting aespa can get huge likes. Now already reached 22k in no time

Gain a big fandom in such a short amount of time is recognition in itself. Groups like Oh my Girl or Brave Girls who had similiar success on the charts didnt even get that recognition.

The tweat is like the oposite of no recognition or ignorance. Its negative recognition and disrespect and i agree thats is also a problem. but not what op is asking for in this thread title.

I thought Aespa is pretty much acknowledged for one of the top GG of 2021. Only rivaled international by Twice and domestic by BG. I think it got acknowledged outsite the fandom. They got a lot of awards.

Now like you said they are in the time magazine. i mean if they wouldnt get recognized they wouldnt even in the time magazine in the first place.

So despite some hate from jealous stans of rivaling idols. Do you think they achieved something were they didnt get properly rewarded for?

Stsly sometimes shawols don't even know about SHINee's achievements till other fandoms mention it

Like shawols did not know shinee is one of the very few who won music shows in 3 different decades till VIPs pointed it out

I guess we can't brag about things we don't know about

I mean they aren't recognized enough for their achievements by other stans so isn't that still fall in the same category. I elaborate my arguments too in the post above.

None.

K-pop is a popularity industry.

Recognition is the only achievement, that matters.

It is not as though they are some inventors who invented something new, which was not recognised by the world until much later.

In K-pop, Achievement = Recognition.

Those who weren't recognised, didn't achieve.

Treasure.

I'm lazy to explain.
