I'll give NewJeans this: they got people to do singing covers again, and not just dancing covers. They got people to sing again, and not just stupid dance covers on Youtube and instagram and tiktok-- what are we, still in elementary, with all the dance covers?
And also, they're doing away with the stupid, obligatory rap parts in songs. We've got the overwhelming popularity and influence of EXO and BTS to blame for that.
BlackPink was a fake revolution; NewJeans was the real revolution. Hopefully HYBE doesn't meddle in Min Hee-jin's affairs (but of course they will do; they hold all the money; and will probably make them charge $50 for the NewJeans full album when it comes out).
