Minji Bigger it girl than Wonyoung or that faux it gorl Karina

she is truly the it gorl of the century

Damn cant even see the list

theres an issue with wonyoungs name which is why she is so low

idk wonyoung seems cemented as THE it-girl

minji is beautiful and so is karina but wonyoung has a huge head start and she’s already so famous within the gp. out of the three, i’d pick wonyoung in a heartbeat. she’s strikingly beautiful and has a true celebrity persona

It is because she isn't #1. This is the reality since NJ debuted, and has only got one new CF in the last 12 months. [added: oopps it is 2. forgot KIRSH "expired" and she is with a company called spsp or something. the reason I picked 12 months, is that is the normal CF contract period. some companies do extend but not all such as KIRSH]

Kakao groups astroturf - "a PR agency that signed a 1.3B contract with SM in Feb 23, has also won the jackpot. The main tasks are known to be posting favorable comments on SNS for existing SM management, including former CEO Lee Seungsoo, and increasing the views on YouTube videos posted by LSS"

^ you gotta be smoking some strong stuff if you still think this is IT girl. I acknowledge she was top tier, but I got no idea what has happened during the last 1.5 years.

I don't get the Minji thing. Yeah she's pretty, but not really any more pretty than most kpop idols. There's nothing hugely stand out about her that should put her at top of lists.

But also

That brand ranking list thing is sooooo fucking dumb. It's one dude that refuses to release how he makes his conclusions.

Quote from minjufairy

None of the New Jeans members have any individual presence despite all the gigs Hybe books for them and how much their fans try to make it seem like they do.

Imagine creating an account on AKP just to show you are the origin point for where extreme saltiness and intense bitterness converge.

Feel free to defend the dignity of Wonyoung all you want, but you lose all credibility the moment you claim the biggest celebrities in Korea today, NewJeans, don't have any presence individually.

If claiming Wonyoung isn't the #1 It Girl in Korea is delusional, then claiming NewJeans have no presence is the literal theater of the absurd.

I hope you'll do better on your second post here.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ where is super viral astroturf gurl?

its accurate and its not accurate, and its only for Korea. but yes his company decides the weightings of the different categories. The best measurement is really new CFs in the last 12 months, because CFs generally have a 12 month period unless extended. NJs have got all the best and major new CFs, not unknown crapola. Its clear as day, and it correlates with this reputation index.

Brand rankings are a joke and no one in SK takes them seriously anymore. Their only function in SK society is being used as tools to troll other groups' fans (which to be fair is what this post is too I guess).

She isn't even the prettiest in her group let alone in 4th gen

i'm all in for the minji it girl agenda

idk, i trust the testimony of people who live in korea and say wonyoung is currently the most popular female idol over there, more than these brand rep rankings which have been proved to be meaningless countless times

Quote from thebadguy

Ended those girls in visuals too

To compare the "visual hole" of newjeans to one of the most beautiful kpop idols to ever exist is an insane set up

Search engine stats tell a different story

Do we choose the data from Google and Naver or the data based on who spams most emotes in article comments about their favorite idol, tough one tbh. Not to mention the person behind these rankings has been caught doing social media manipulation for politicians before.

Quote from thebadguy

minji visual hole and wonyoung one of the most beautiful idols to ever exist????

Ur comment is even more fake than wonyoung's personality

Visual hole because her visuals are way below most newjeans members and yes wonyoung is just that pretty, face wise she is one of the most stunning idols

Do you really have to lie to prove a point? Visual hole… Minji… you’re nuts

Popularity among Kpop fans is an important factor, but not the only one when it comes to brand deals. Global appeal beyond the Kpop bubble {though improving, Kpop has not been taken all that seriously) and having the right image that brands want to be associated with are some others.

You don't need to rely on the Korean Institute's rankings, you can get direct insight as to why industry players consider NewJeans "mega blue chip" for advertising (note how they avoid using "Kpop" which carries stigma):

But talk is cheap, and brand deals are expensive. For Minji, Chanel apparently thought it was worth betting on her as they paid up for her to represent them for all categories less than a year after debut.

Botting search engines is the same as increasing the views on YouTube videos, but simpler as it takes less time and data.

Not lying she is, like every time I see this photo I think about it:

Even when hanni is not that pretty she at least is in harmony with the other visuals, but minji breaks that out, is the hybe nose and eyebrows that don't go well with her face

you know... the term visual hole isn't a position like rapper, vocalist etc, not every group has one assigned visual hole. get an eye test please.

Lol kpl actually commenting something other than 75% Lossnof uls. Week 2 and day 7. He's getting emotional now

Kitsch - Melon Peak #1, 496,449 ULs

Either Way - Melon Peak #12, ~125,000 ULs

Both pre-release title tracks released on Monday. Difference = 375,000 ULs

It is not organically possible to suddenly drop 75% of your ULs or 375,000 ULs, or conversely suddenly go up 375,000 ULs organically.

You should also add this was at the 2.5 week mark. It magically climbed after.

this thread is so

Ahh there we go. That's the persona I was expecting. Just doesn't seem right when he doesn't post these and goes on a tirade about other things.
