Is anyone else surprised at the fact that the 3rd generation groups have been more consistent and stable than the 2nd gen?

very lucrative markets like usa opened up as well as internet in general so more revenues so they can promote and keep groups longer in general. Also companies are just better at managing their idols with more experience

No? Kpop is very different than how it used to be now

I expected everyone to be kicked out, specially Red Velvet

Where are they though?
