Obviously. Lost a member due to lack of patience from the company, AND a concept change that made them flop. Now all they have is extra performances on radio shows. Pristin but with extra steps I fear.
Yiren is never coming back. And Aisha is also on a health leave. And they haven’t had a international hit since La Di Da and even that was a huge decrease from Dun Dun. Blackpink having a full era in 2020 hurt them but they could have went back to real girl crush but they decided to do boy group music. And no comeback in 8 months while Ive have two since Pirate. SAD!
No It girls
No good songs
Worse charting across the board
International fandom in tatters
They are big flops. XG are performing better than them now.
Now some contentious picks
They are pulling an Itzy I fear. Losing their Next Level as we speak because Girls flopped. Fearless will be above it on Melon in one month. SM better give us some real hyperpop the next release, and pull from Black Mamba and the jazz section from Next Level. And give Karina and Winter solo CFs with NingNing some international magazine covers. Giselle killed her only audience with the N-word controversy. At least give her some collabs like Zoo for your older soloists to build up trust. She better be on the Key album. If Itzy can get out of their hole. aespa can too.
They charted way worse internationally and domestically after the hit that was Polaroid Love due to pulling the 4th Gen boy group stank I fear. Pass the Mic is trash. And no hit bside as well? Sad. They promoted the noisy Paradoxx Invasion over Shout Out will be their biggest mistake. Not to mention the fatphobia which is killing their international fanbase. And domestic fans hate them due to shilling NewJeans. It’s over for them.
Beautiful Monster flopped internationally and domestically. And NewJeans and Ive stole their thunder as the good music group. Ive have it girls and NewJeans have a big company behind them. They are the next Lovelyz. ASAP was their Achoo and RUN2U was their Destiny. Queendom 3 won’t save their career as it kills careers.
Predicting groups that will fall off soon
The Boyz -akgae problem and having a comeback in a competitive month
Treasure - Might pull an Enhypen and with two members most likely leaving
Nmixx - another O.O and they are out
TXT - GBGB flopped internationally and might release another trash song despite the rising hype due to their touring.
