So now that all is said and done, post come back is NewJeans the top of 4th Gen?

Not comeback they need to be successful for more than a year.

For now, they are definitely top 4th gen in Korea.

Just like they demolished Ive, there is a chance Baby Monster or SM's new girl group can do the same.

Long term the question is, can their style translate to popularity outside Korea where they can hold huge concerts like BP and Twice or not. Korea is very different to the global market.

Thats already looking like its going their way lol.

Their songs already on U.S radio, which is why 2 of their songs "OMG" and "Ditto" been on the Hot 100 for 5 weeks.

Plus there's been a lot of celebrities mentioning them, knowing who they are, and saying they like their music.

They already sold 1 million units in the U.S with their album.

They have 22 Million monthly listeners, and on every Billboard chart, even now.

So many global and domestic brands are working with them, as a group and individually.

I mean its only up from here.

I voted they only the Top 4th gen girl group, cuz I was thinking about Stray Kids and TXT.

But I change my mind, as of RIGHT NOW, I'll say overall.

They got it on the domestic side and somewhat globally too, which you can tell by their charting on U.S charts

I’ll be quoting this the 23rd of july

It would be the comeback after their first year is up but sure.

Why would you need to do that like as if I’ve ever questioned them lol. So far the trend has been that GGs can’t maintain relevance for more than a year so that’s why it’s an interesting point to assess their popularity.

For me it is irrelevant what any group ranks in Korea, because the revenue there is peanuts compared to the global market, and the global market is totally different in terms of what is really popular long term. Koreans love Aegyo, the global music fans puke when they see that.

Ador bought into Spotify playlists, which Korean groups do not really do, so its hard to quantity is it that the US really likes their music, or is it because they bought into the Spotify playlists and any other group doing the same would get the same result.

NJ are bigger than all of their competition even without Spotify playlisting internationally imo.

They are already the top of the 4th gen GG

Their reach has eclipsed all other existing GGs sans BP & it'll only increase with further music releases & touring

Now obviously there's BM coming so let's see if they can come swinging right off the bat 😌

If they can survive the arrival of Baby Monster then yes.

I'm saying this as a Tokki but all Baby Monster need is just a good song and they will kill it for sure bc the girls are talented as hell.

Not yet. They have a lead for sure right now over Ive. Hybe Boy and Ditto are national hits, and Attendant and OMG have great potential to be national hits as well. But Ive has a comeback coming up and they have two national hits themselves in Afterlike and Love Dive (Love Dive is still the song with most weeks in the top 10 of Melon with 33 weeks, and Afterlike still owns the peak UL record for 4th gen with way over 600k ULs).

If Ive's comeback blows up and dominates with 4+ weeks on top of Melon, more peak ULs than OMG/Ditto, and 30+ weeks in the top 10 of Melon....they would be considered tied for the top overall act in Korea.

im expecting a long battle in the coming years, with multiple downfalls,rises, etc. groups can decline and comeback. there's still alot to go through and many years to go

OMG is not going viral globally. What kind of fantasy are you living in?

Not yet, BabyMonster and SMNGG are coming

Let's wait and hold on. Another players are coming, BP's little sisters

Ofc they're, anyone who denies is living in delusion. As long as Ador has the full control over their content I think they'll be alright.

people can wait all they want, they're winning here and now
