1. [+139] I think it's a bit unfortunate that people are treating love songs about heterosexual relationships as boring or cliche... There used to be groups like Lovelyz that were able to sing about love and youth in special ways
2. [+102] Sometimes I do miss the groups that used to sing about sweet, innocent love like Girlfriend or Lovelyz
3. [+92] It's not that we hate lyrics about heterosexual love... it's just that it's so obvious and common. I really like that there are more variety in songs now.
4. [+65] We really have entered a new era of girl groups
5. [+25] And in the midst of it all, our New Jeans are dancing to 'Hype Boy' and 'Attention' ❤️
6. [+13] It's very cool
7. [+4] I think it's a great change
8. [+8] I'm so glad there aren't so many love songs anymore. It really is a new era of girl groups.
9. [+6] I love it, I think variety is always a good thing. So tired of the same old genres.
10. [+1] Environmental awareness, feminism, there's a lot of PC topics now
