NewJeans is currently the most popular girl group in K-Pop

Quote from YamaChwan

For once, I won't argue with anyone or unload a mountain of statistics

Let me just screenshot this real quick

In Korea I think a case can be made but I think they aren’t the most popular world wide. But I think they could definitely get there

They have already secured their place in history and are the top 4th generation group.

Mind you Blackpink is the most streamed GG with no cb this year. They can’t beat a veteran group in hiatus.

But don’t worry they’re the only top 4th gen gg

Name recognition BP is still currently popular. Stats wise it’s newjeans

In terms of their music and stats especially, yes.

They are the biggest... in your head

no i think its blackpink

The BP queens are still lurking, NJ can not claim the throne until they are buried.

No Blackpink is still significantly more popular than them.

Lisa alone is bigger than Newjeans

Lisa alone is bigger than Newjeans

But she is not a group and Lisa >>>>> BlackPink.

NewJeans is the first girl group who has a legit chance at surpassing Blackpink in the long run but it's going to be a while.

Right now more people still know who Blackpink is more than they know who Newjeans is.

And do u genuinely think there's any girl group bigger than a group that have a Lisa, a Jennie, a Jisoo and a Rosé?

I mean... We may have different standards about what's popular or not

Currently at this present moment yes. Just on stats alone. But on name brand recognition no. But I don't see the huge gap everyone sees. Except for youtube and China New Jeans are out performing Blackpink the group. And seeing how they are outstreaming Blackpink with less songs this year and they have still not made their 2 comebacks this year, blinks should be prepared to lose all remaining records Blackpink has. Blackpink are not coming back this year too. But hey at least they have solo allbums to look forward to.

Nope

It's Blackpink

Suck it Marshall.

Nah, payola stats VS true popularity.

.

They're still relevant as long as Hype pays scooter farms well. But money out vs money in!

Input VS outout for a longer period.

.

YouTube:

Blackpink 93M

NewJeans 6.63M

Babymonster 4.39M

.

Instagram?

Spotify?

.

These girls still have a long way to go to the point where Blackpink's standing.

And the question is if Hype got enough extra cash to pave the ways for the NewJeans girlies if there's no good return of the investment?

The investors can just pull their investments back... and no more payola then?

Overall it's still Blackpink.

could be

could be not

either way does it matter???

let's say they are the most popular - does that mean you like them more

or if they aren't hell even if they were nugu would you like them less???

nah, be real, its bp at the moment

this. i don't think new jeans will ever be as popular as bp bc none of the members have as much individuality as bp. but then again they are very popular still and they're like the only Kpop group i can play around my non Kpop fan friends bc they vibe w their sound.

This is really the important crux of the matter

I do see nj becoming as popular as bp globally... As a group. But individually? That's yet to be seen. We also have to see if they can fill stadiums like BP, but that may only happen in a couple of years when op's question will be irrelevant

i think it's still BP

I have already seen many 4th generation rookies succeed in their debut

Until now, this is dejà vu

like this happened and bp hasn't released music in 2 years

I guess bp is the standard tired how they they are always brought up unnecessarily

New Jeans has eight singles and three #1 songs. Avg ranking of all eight songs is 4.

Ive has eight singles and five #1 songs. Avg ranking of all eight songs is 3.

Ive reigns supreme in Korea.

I thought that crown went to Blackpink

Blackpink

Yes, along with IVE, Lssfm, BP and Twice

In korea, I'll give you thath. Worldwide, it's still bp by a long mile

Are we talking about melon? cause if it is I'll give you that. Spotify, no

I'm just collecting data on AKP forum sentiments

LOL of course not. Bp, Twice, Red Velvet are way more popular. We live in payola epoch and HYBE is the leader of all payola things, so your stats are irrelevant. What is relevant then? Concert tours. I see that Twice can gather stadiums somewhere in America.

If to talk about 4th gen, Gidle is clearly #1 nowadays

Quote from DaisyTheGenuine

We have this thread every week and the answer is always no

But what if next week it becomes yes?
