What groups that debuted this year deserve more attention?

Lapillus and Class:y

I mean true Lapillus stans, not just Chanty stans. She’s amazing but their are five other members.

Class:y is literally only brought up when there is mention of young people in kpop. How about we actually appreciate their talents.

Quote from YouChanDoThis

ILY:1

I really thought they would have more attention because four members were Girls Planet 999 trainees, especially Ririka who went quite far.

Quote from obok

kep1er

Kep1er deserve more positive attention. Everyone knows them but how many true OT9 stans are there really? People only really talked about how they shouldn’t be on Queendom

Quote from obok

Right, ot8ers and toxic akgaes ruined a lot for kep1er's reputation.... i hope things turn better and people see them in a more positive light. there are akgaes in every fandom but they are usually paid dust so we should do the same here...

There are still OT8ers which I will not understand. None of the members are problematic. They have good music. What isn’t there to love??

Quote from YouChanDoThis

Yep, they deserve so many more fans. If it’s an condolence, I think I heard that Ririka is the most popular member, or one of them for sure.

Tbh I’m not surprised if thats the case. She’s definitely my bias of the group. But I have grown to love all the members

Quote from obok

ot8ers are miserable people who got angry because their fave didnt make it so they take it out on a 17 year old .... its sad really. the girls are all so lovely and talented, they have no filler members, idk whats not clicking.

And those who say she doesn’t belong in the group because her brother is famous 🤡🤡🤡

I feel like they’re a name everyone knows but very few actually stan. Personally I ult them (yes I’m setting myself up for heartbreak)

Yeah ofc you can do subunits

Quote from obok

yeah, i feel like they have a lot of casual fans and people who like xiaoting or bahiyyih (ofc the other girls too, but i feel like xiaohiyyih are most popular among non-kep1ians) but are scared of going into the fandom knowing the reputation

I also feel like Yujin is pretty popular too outside of Keplians thanks to her being in CLC

Quote from BlackpinkHouse

You literally picked the best one. Classy came out with a SOTY contender and nobody noticed.

Yes! See someone else gets it! Their debut and followup were both so good! I hope they gain popularity and stop being slept on

Quote from zuzuhhaa

class:y for sure omg. i also wanna see more love for XG, they're killing it with their recent hype for mascara

I also hope XG keeps gaining popularity with their recent hype. They bring something fresh to the industry

Quote from bunnyviolet

Tempest and Younite

You’ve reminded me that I still need to listen to Aviator 😅

Quote from bunnyviolet

Oh Superkind is also very interesting. I'm curious how they'll develop.

They’re a very interesting group. All the boys are super talented and having a completely AI member is unique. Tbh I couldn’t even tell he was AI at first

Quote from kpopace26

I listened to CLASS:y's albums days ago and I'm hooked af; solid so far!

And HIT YA! is a bop from day one.

Give some love to H1-KEY, PRIKIL, TAN, XG, and IRRIS juseyo.

First off taste!!! Secondly, I really hope IRRIS does well, for many of them its their second time trying at the industry (former RedSquare members). H1-Key and Tan both had really solid debuts and first comebacks

Quote from kwonjiyong92

Class:y

Agreed 100%

They’re too good for people to just sleep on them. A group of seven amazing vocalists!

Quote from catzi

Agree!!! Got'ya was one of the best rookie songs

Quote from emanresu

I'm grandfathering ICHILLIN in as they debuted the latter part of 2021.

And they're nugu.

But my goodness they're amazing.

Just listen to this.

My SOTY.

I’m glad to see La Luna is getting some attention. ICHILLIN is probably one of my favourite nugu girl groups at the moment! They’re such talented performers but you can also tell they’re having so much fun too

Quote from catzi

Agree!!! Got'ya was one of the best rookie songs

Got’ya was a whole bop!

Quote from VaniLuci

So glad to see this thread, I find so many bops here

I hope they will be more successful

Please keep this thread alive, I'm sad that Bling Bling, LunarSolar, and Hot Issue already disband

Awww thank you! If one person can get interested in these amazing groups, that makes the world of a difference 💚

Bling Bling and Lunarsolar’s disbandment hit hard for me 😭

Quote from bunnyviolet

Yeah and the fan involvement through discord and creating the storyline for the next MV on Twitter is also very interesting. I'm curious how they'll develop like I said also because of this.

Oh wow that’s actually really cool to get the fans involved in that way!
