    Stop Expecting Your Group To Never “Decline”
    I see tons of Kpop fans talk about Twice capturing the general public with their music like they did so consistently from 2016-2019. Twice is a 7 year old group now. It’s time for the new generation to come and dominate like Twice used to do.

    This is the same for groups like RV, Mamamoo, GF. These were the top groups of the 3rd gen for girl groups. But now they are either disbanded or their releases don’t do as magnificently as when they were new. This doesn’t mean they do bad either just, ok.…

    That user is just salty because Twice isn't at their peak anymore in sk. But they are literally underestimating Twice by writing that whole essay because Twice has been doing great in Japan and globally.

    Generally speaking, yes. Which is the natural state of things: there was a list of still active, existing 3rd gen groups not that long ago, and it was shocking to see that there were hardly more than 10-15 girl groups on that list.

    All other 3rd gen groups had disbanded, discontinued their contracts or faded into oblivion.


    Girl groups usually have a shorter lifespan than boy groups, so what you're seeing now, newer groups capturing the attention of the public and of k-pop fans, that is as it has been for decades.


    Companies will also focus and spend more resources on their newer groups, because they still need to grow and because they have a longer lifespan than their groups who're nearing their contract ending and that aren't expected to sign up for another 7+ years.
