Among the established groups, SK and TXT will probably continue leading the way for 4th gen. I expect to see Enhypen and Treasure to continue on an upward trajectory. I also expect to see some more love for TBZ as well. Hoping for a breakout year for my underrated rookie faves P1Harmony and DBK (same company as Brave Girls). There's plenty others but these are the ones off the top of my head.
Which boy groups do you think will have a rise in popularity this year? {Potential Breakout?}

I'm rooting for Enhypen. And for Stray Kids, since I recently got interested in them. Looking forward to their Kingdom performances
-
ONF was recently 6th in brand rep rank so maybe them?

Yesss, SK will continue to become massive I have no doubt. Kingdom will be super exciting!

I'm super excited about Astro's cb. I discovered them not too long ago and between Knock, Bad Idea, Blue Flame, All Night, and Crazy Sexy Cool I loved all of their songs. Definitely need to look into their full discography. Their visuals are also stunninggg and Rocky is one of the most underrated dancers in the industry.

I think Stray Kids is going to have a bigger breakout than God’s Menu soon.

In June will mark 1 year without Stray Kids releasing a standard album. Just imagine how much their already existent fandom are expecting + the new fandom they will gain after Kingdom. I see it being a massive comeback. I'm rooting so much for my boys.
TXT, ATEEZ, The Boyz, Enhypen Treasure are solid answers too. I see them all becoming even more successful. Also, maybe one more dark horse that we are not expecting.

Honestly, not just saying this as a 'fan' of them, but SHINee sort of had a moment when they released don't call me. It's nice to see my favorite boys still relevant.
But for newer groups, TXT, ATEEZ, The Boyz and Treasure are all showing the potential to be great contenders. I'm really excited to see what this year brings for all the new groups, and the older ones that may have a CB

I don't know much about bgs outside of btxt but from what I've seen there are two boy groups (out of RTK oddly lol) that managed to chart on Gaon in terms of digitals and that is ONF and Golden Child so maybe they don't have a breakout but they are underrated on the rise groups
TBZ's growth is more known and is expected to continue thanks to the boost of Kingdom like the other kingdom groups but the boost being big or small is very unpredictable IMO
If not national, those kingdom groups (zzz in particular) should continue having international growth.
I'm biased towards TXT of course but also know a lot of things about how they are doing and their fandom in Korea continues growing, idk if it's enough to chart long time on Melon but it is sizeable and should not be underestimated as well as their growth in Japan and the US (charting a japanese album on BB200 is no easy thing). Now if our supposedly big fandom would not only buy but also stream, it could do wonders.
I'm convinced they will rise, I'm still curious of their plans. I know chaos chapter is darker but will it still fit for a breakout in SK? Suspense.
I'm not sure about more established groups

All the groups this year will lead in physical sales and increase in digital, the problem will be competition in sales and massive purchases of records. As a fan of TXT the covers they made of other singers show that they are studying trends and seeing changes in the music industry, it is terrifying that with only a few years they can recognize unknown artists and spread them.
I don't worry about the competition between the 4th gen because changes always happen.
