Is the Hybe Japan boy group a threat?

They are very talented, has a fanbase already and a unique werewolf lore. So far, none of 4th gen Korean groups have managed to break out globally like BTS/Blackpink. Hybe’s marketing this group as a global group. Should Txt, Enhypen, NewJeans, Skz,… watch out?

They're gonna be big in Japan for sure but if they're gonna have a more jpop sound then I don't see them breaking into the global market

First vampires, now werewolves...

What is this? Twilight?

are you the same person making all the anon threads for this group?

to answer your question, I highly doubt it, most intentional audiences are not interested in jpop and japanese music content is a lot harder to consume globally as well

it's hard to imagine hybe will invest that many resources when this group is half made up of iland rejects and the average age is a lot older too

a threatened engine and an ageist spotted. Let me remind you they're free from enlisting because they're mostly japanese lol

I'm the one making the other thread, not OP.

I have high hopes for this group's music because they have good producers behind them and good vocalists to execute the songs. Same thing can't be said for Enhypen because their music has gone downhill and even autotune can't hide their disastrous vocals anymore

goodluck on taking over Johnny's grps on Japan lol

LMAO ! you sound mad as hell

to answer op's question:

No, they're not threat at all. No one cares about jpop in kpop fandom. You need to wake up and stop being delusional.

lol I don't care about enhypen, enhypen sucks too, are you happy now?

I can promise you this new group will disappear into the depths of jpop and international fans will stop caring much like niziu.

One thing I am sure of is that OP is delusional.

No Japanese boy group is going to be a threat just like how no Chinese group is going to be a threat because try as they might, Kpop fans just don't care about groups outside of Korea. Hell, they don't even care when it's their own groups putting out Japanese or Chinese content. They always flop. Why even ask something so obvious?
