why doesnt ive get the same treatement as aespa?

  • they never sing live, they are not particularly charismatic and they have silly choreographies. they are shaping to be one of the top 4th gen ggs and yet they are getting a free pass, unlike aespa, in the contrary they seem to get overwhelming support from the general kpop community.

    if kpop fans care about live singing and stage presence as much as they pretend when it is about aespa, why don't they show the same energy to ive? this ridiculousness got to the point where ive fans themselves are joining the drags against aespa's lipsyncing and stage presence. what lack of self awarness? what double standards?

    Approved the thread.
  • ive doesn't sing live??? Who said that lmao!!! Also problem with aespa is even on backtrack, they don't sing at all, its just complete lipsync.

  • Kpoppies hate boner for anything SM

  • receipts? i watched several eleven and love dive performances and not a single one of them was live.

    then you don't know how to distinguish live.

    Almost every performance after their first week in music show is live.

  • Ive have sung live multiple times and have way better stage presence than aespa. Despite not being great dancers, none of them lack energy and they do the choreo better and show more charisma and personality on stage. Aespa doesn’t have much going on for them

  • Ive have very visually appealing choreographies

  • 1. Let's pretend that ive get the same support as aespa on here


    2. Ive are better performers as a group atleast

  • Not only they sing live, they are the most charismatic 4th gen gg too.

  • i wish all these people claiming ive sing live all the time would share a single performance that's actually live.

  • IVE are very charismatic on stage what are you on. NONE of them are “bad performers” objectively—all engaged, expressions and energy-wise. They are probably one of the most cohesive looking girl groups on stage as well, no one sticks out too much in a bad way. Their music is good, and they are continuously trying to improve their talents. They might not have top vocals or rappers but Liz and Yujin are very solid vocalists, and Rei is a good idol rapper. And they may not have standout dancers but no one in the group can’t hold a beat which again, makes them look very cohesive.


    Your guys’ mentality of “needs to be the best” is so weird to me. IVE is talented, charismatic, and has amazing music. Their success is deserved.

  • Simple, their fans aren't as insufferable

  • in theory aespa is more talented than IVE but IVE actually have much better performances

    Rei is also incredibly stable as a vocal too. Her voice sounds exactly the same in encore stages, she's really good despite not having her vocal on the same level as aespa's.

  • aespa is bigger threat for their faves more than ive ever was

  • ive have better music that's enough for free pass

    ive also have more stage presence, visuals, better choreography than aespa.

    ive is from a smaller company. people often side with the less privileged more.

  • Not you bashing IVE‘s stage presence when they have two of the best performers (Yujin&Wonyoung) in the group, whilst the rest is very solid, too.


    Also, they sound pretty nice during life performances.

  • Pretty much this. Ive are worse singers, worse dancers, have the obnoxious try hard facial expression thing going on as well. It's just that people hate SM and their groups so Ive gets a free pass as they are the only 4th gen group that can come close to Aespa at the moment. Bandwagoners, but watch them jump to New Jeans next.

    “Obnoxiously try hard facial expression thing” lmfao just say you don’t know what stage presence is and leave. You all will hound idols for not showing expressions on stage and then turn around and bash the ones who do.

    Lol no the only thing aespa does better than Ive is singing and they don’t even sing lipsync like ever. Everything else is Ive >.

    Also this is a good example of how aespa fans are the worst and that adds to it

    This sounds like a coping mechanism. aespa wouldn't get any hate if they had better title songs and stage presence. Ive would be forgotten if they had shitty music, even charisma wouldn't be able to save them, just like any other non big4 gg. They have to put effort 2x more to stand out in comparison to privileged ggs that are already expected to do well.


    I am just really tired of mys saying Ive only have fans and support because people love to hate on aespa. Talk about main character syndrome. Then y'all wonder why you get so much hate as a fandom.

  • on the contrary, ives is very charismatic

    This is exactly one of the main reasons why people like them more than Aespa, because they don't look like robots going through a routine on stage. The worst offender is Winter with her blank static expression, though she has improved slightly recently.

  • Please stop clowning. THAT is not live singing. Ive lipsynch as often as Aespa but they don't get even 1% of the criticism.


    As for charisma, I hope you guys finally realise that it's not an objective matter. You think they're the most charismatic 4th generation gg? But I don't find them charismatic at all, same for Aespa. It's subjective, I wish you would realise this.

  • Why would SM antis and other insecure Big 4 stans go after a non-Big 4 group like IVE?


    IVE are no part of the neverending Big 4 company fanwars, just like Sistar, 4Minute, EXID, I-dle, Mamamoo etc were never part of the fanwars between Big 4 group stans (unless those groups could be used as a weapon to shade one of the Big 4 groups).


    The antis and a number of other Big 4 stans want to break and crush MYs, and the simplest way to do that is focus on dismissing Aespa's strengths and highlight Aespa's supposed weaknesses until more and more people start to believe the fake narratives.


    Other girl groups that have the same 'weaknesses' or are actually worse in those skills are irrelevant when the entire goal is to crush MYs and Aespa's popularity and reputation.

  • Because IVE is not a blatant rip off of an already popular group and their fans aren't a bunch of freaks.

    They don’t. The often use backtrack that isn’t even that loud. Aespa is literally lipsync from beginning to end. Like if you stan aespa you really shouldn’t speak about lipsync smh

  • My’s really think they’re the center of attention. Omg not my’s thinking people support any gg just to get back at aespa :facepalm:. It’s a sickness really. No wonder nobody likes my’s

  • Ive dont like lifeless on stage so no not really a good comparison. They also drop decent songs so it's normal kpoppies like them

  • there are so many videos of ive singing live on music shows wtf? also at least singing with backtrack means you are SINGING

    aespa doesn't even have one (1) single live encore lol

  • They don’t. The often use backtrack that isn’t even that loud. Aespa is literally lipsync from beginning to end. Like if you stan aespa you really shouldn’t speak about lipsync smh

    If you stan ive then you have no business speaking about lipsynching. The fact we're already on page 2 and not a single person shared one of these supposed several live performances is telling enough. You all know deep inside that it's a lie and it's easier to uphold it when you speak in general terms instead of actually sharing the performances lol.

  • Why would they get the same treatment when they aren't the same lmao? It's only in mys heads that IVE are worse performers than Aespa when anyone with eyes can see that IVE are better at dancing and have better stage presence and have better visuals and music. The only thing that Aespa has over IVE's are their vocals, but who cares when Aespa lip syncs 99.9% of the time anyway?

  • You are living in the past. First of all, big4 didn't exist in 2nd gen, only big3. Second, none of these ggs you mentioned were even close to be competition to big3 ggs overall. Meanwhile Ive does have the relevancy in all aspects that make them one of the top gg of their gen - as of now, no rookies are close to reach their stats minus sales, which they are also strong for a gg that only release singles. Even if that happens, it will be between Ive and Newjeans, aespa is out of the discussion as they currently dont have the charting needed.

    The main reason you think we want to "crush" mys and aespa is because you want the world to circle around aespa and mys when it doesn't. So when you get a reality check you take that as offense. Mys are by far the most delusional fandom I ever seen. I am saying this as someone who cares about aespa but sometimes I even get embarrassed to say I stan them so people don't associate me with the obnoxious members of the fandom, which they already do.
