SM's most redeeming quality

They have EXO.

Frankly idk

They are not great but there is also no other agency that is guaranteed to do a better job than them on all metrics. They are just the less sucky option out there?

my answer only concerns SHINee's management

I knew you would answer that lmao

I vow to be predictable

vocals

I don't think anyone that is under an entertainment company makes music for the arts

Vocals, hands down. Like their roster of top tier vocalists in the industry is really unmatched.

them red velvet and f(x) discogs

Vocals as many people have stated.

And, sticking behind their artists.

I was also going to say branding, but then I remembered that SM has done some things I have found questionable in that regard, so yeah, the other 2 things lol.

I beg to differ

That is ART and the only kpop company brave enough to release something like this was SM

Aliens will bang their heads listening to this in the future while everything else will become outdated

Although I am not always a big fan of SMs "innovative" music, they really are the only company who's music ages very well.

Consistent CBs (up until 2022-23 anyways lol)

Musics?
like after checking out my playlist yesterday, I found out that it filled with so many SM songs from EXO, SNSD, SJ, RV, Aespa

They have longevity if nothing else.

All 3 are SM's strengths.

Music

Vocals

Management even though there's still room for improvement, especially in solo career promotions.
