why were staycs y2k concepts ignored while newjeans are praised for it

.

but isn't newjeans songs like their concepts? not just the outfits

Company privilege

Big company privilege

not everyone doing y2k will have the same success, it's the execution of concept plus good songs. look at twice, they're flopping despite having y2k concept as well.

New Jeans has y2k style songs not just outfits. Did I miss StayC’s y2k style songs?

Newjeans concepts are more urban Y2K while STAYC is like Y2K from teen movies.

yeah STAYC is y2k in concept but not in sound like NJ

Much better execution

Declaring a concept is not enough, you need to actually commit

1. stayc songs are overrated and the main vocalists' voice color is unbearable to listen. while nj songs makes you relax and easy to listen to

@@@9f0f9993-bada-4243-bb01-a73094ae8fac@@@. their mvs look cheap.

3. company brand alone can make you stand out and make you look like you have aura, when in reality it's just marketing

HYBE is the reason.

Army.

Who is the one that hyping them up?

Army.

Also because of their age, army see them as their little sisters, where as other ggs as their rival. (That's why they won't acknowledge LSF)

For those citing Hybe privilege, remember IVE comes from a non big4 and still slays. A group needs great execution, catchy songs and beautiful and likeable girls. Just coming from Big4 is not enough. Look at NMixx. They have the perfect package expect for a good song. And they tanked.
