Between the America/global groups JYP-VCHA (A2k) and HYBE-Katseye (Dream Academy), which one has better potential for success?

Neither? But isn’t the Katseye one a more global focused group? JYPs group is too but all of them are American I believe

Unpopular opinion, I guess Vcha will do better. Vcha looks and sounds like a group for tweeny girls while Katseyes appears to be more public friendly.

Yet, this means Vcha has clearer market and clearer identity. Despite being a group for a very niche market, it is easier to market the group to this focus group.

It will be way more difficult and way costlier marketing for Katseyes. This means it is a way riskier project.

Vcha unlikely will ever hit big but is promising to set itself in a lucrative enough niche market. Katseyes can possibly hit big but the possibility is very low.

based on jyp and Hybe current track record - katseye

Neither, i hope both flop

I think that Katseye will do better. Katseye gives off a more dark, sophisticated, cool, and classic vibe whereas VCHA gives off a more bubblegum, bright, and childish vibe. I also think that the style of Katseye’s music might make them more successful. The team B (girls in silver) had a really nice song. While VCHA is all American, Katseye has 3 American members so they could still do well in the US.

I suspect Katseye is going to be messy and drama filled

Manon going to be the next big breakout star.

Always bet against jyp, they just can't help themselves

This, I really have no idea whom they wanna target this group with.

Kpop fans will definitely not stan Katseyes, they are way too "western". Meanwhile half of VCHA members are asian and the other half adhere to asian beauty standards. So JYP can promote them in multiple directions and see where they stick.

Meanwhile, the Katseyes, they just have to make it in America, they have no other choice. You can't promote this group in Korea or Japan, it simply won't work. Girls are way too "intimidating" for the lack of a better word. And it will be very hard for them in America too, cause girl groups generally have been struggling and only succeeding as solos.

I really can't believe none of the girls from the Wannabe mission didn't make it. This is actually a group that they could market in Korea and Japan as well as in the west. And they have such a good visual chemistry as well despite all being of a different race.

Ikr? And all of them apparently got eliminated smhw.

Hybe and geffen have the $ to promote better, but even being excited before the end of auditions about these groups, I now think the world isn’t ready for a global girl group singing in all English. Vcha seems to be doing well thus far, but they’re in a honeymoon stage right now. I’m not optimistic for either group long term.

Megan is the star of KATSEYE…she will get offers even when katseye is no longer around. Lara is also a star in the making. I don’t see any stage presence with Sophia. Sorry, she does nothing for me.

Based on the other threads Katseye should have no problems whatsoever thanks to Hype and BTS privilege.

I go for the HYBE group, they remind me of LMX in the vocal theme, also the members sing, dance and compose, if we see the visual theme along with the height of the members it is intimidating. They just need a good song, excellent choreography and they can have a decent group of fans, adding that Lara's sister has a spectacular discography, I can't imagine the talent that LARA has.

VCHA are co-managed by Republic Records so that's a win for them.

VCHA wins for not being a Kpop Cover group that Katseye look like, just compare the Videos posted on which group wants to be a Kpop Group wannabe.

VCHA wins by being with a Company that shares Information unlike HYBE where every company protects their own interests.

VCHA wins by having KG (Blonde Girl) as a Main/Lead Vocal that has a distinct Non-Generic Kpop Vocal Color, she's also a Composer at 15 that has released Songs prior to competing on A2K

you should include another option

neither

Kateyes easily. Outside of HYBE and YG (Blackpink exclusive) every other label is completely clueless on how to promote overseas

Playlisting is the most important piece of promo anyone can have in 2023. Without it, the odds of attracting new listeners and potential new fans is zero

Well since JYP doesn't know how to handle girl groups i'm choosing Katseye but I feel like they both will end up like XG a global girl group but only kpop fans really cared about them.
