Spiritual successor of every 3rd gen girl group

But where's the nugu group StayC?

GFriend had 3 back to back hits and then I don't know what killed their momentum.

I don't...totally disagree with this.

NMIXX in particular have been reminding me of Red Velvet this comeback with some of their B-sides and LMLT is something I could hear Red Velvet singing during their Dumb Dumb era.

NMIXX's Music Bank fits looked like something Red Velvet would have rocked back then too.

People got quickly tired of their sound.

I think that's the opposite of gfriend problem

They were doing well with their sound and the company decided to change the formula out of blue.

I would say gfriend successors are CSR

I can see why people see aespa in blackpink bc of how Sm was marketing them but that could be said about some other 4th gen girl groups though. I think Ive and blackpink have more in common like the longitivtiy and both have it girls wonyoung and jennie even the hate they get sometimes reminds of blackpink especially with Wonyoung.

this is not your worst post

Imo based by vibes closest would be

Twice > Weeekly

Blackpink > Everglow

Red Velvet > Nature

Gfriend > CSR

Mamamoo > Skyle

Literally referring to success when I told you not to

Blinks are hopeless

Btw, even success wise Ive is more similar to Twice. Hit big with with second release/first comeback, won daesangs for that song, popular among kids, popular in Japan, strong physicals. Jennie was never on Wonyoung's level in Korea, don't even start.

I saw Jennie way more in SK this January than WY tbqh

I didn't bother to read all the OP sorry but vibe wise they remind me more of Ive than Aespa if I have to choose one

you have to be kidding if you think Jennie is not an it girl

what do you mean success wise? so blackpink is not succesful? Blackpink is literally the most successful girl group

I gave my reasons why they remind me more of IVE than Aeapa ( I just didn't agree with aespa similarity) both have it girls ( Jennie and wonyoung) I have yet to see another 4th gen to have that and longetivity wise on charts Ive still seems to be strong or maybe should I say Ive seems to be going to be as strong both digitally and with phsyical albums as blackpink in the future if startship doesn't mess up. Ive just like Blackpink has a big fanbase in China and in my personal opinion Wonyoung's hate is pretty similar to what jennie had to go through
