Gidle member feel bigger than NewJeans member

This isn't something you'd be able to tell unless you've actually been to Korea.

And can't really say I agree. Only ones you could make this argument for are Soyeon and Miyeon (Miyeon especially) in Korea.

Minnie has some permeability, but definitely not on New Jeans level and Yuqi definitely does not, maybe in China where she's more popular.

to be fair G dile is an older group I know people don't want to hear it but they are late 3rd gen so it makes sense the public knows them longer and imo nj strenghts is their popularity as a group as a nj brand than individually.

Well soyeon is one of the biggest idol producers not only compared to female idols but male idols as well. So she's obviously bigger

Yuqi is massive in China and pretty popular in Korea as well

Miyeon have always been popular even if we count the BP association only

Idk much about Minnie but even Shuhua used to be news all the time either for controversy for not dancing properly or for being vocal about something

Also it's worth remembering soyeon and miyeon were part of k/da and that thing was massive and gathered g idle tons of fans

The short answer is: No

The long answer is: No

NewJeans are on the cusp on entering pretty rarefied air in the pantheon of all-time great idols, and it'll be unfair to compare them to groups other than the ones who join them in that stratosphere--groups like SNSD, Twice and BLACKPINK.

I could spit numbers, but what's the point? I don't live in Korea, but every time I ask someone who does whose faces they see everywhere and whose music they hear everywhere, the answer is always NewJeans (and IVE, to be fair)

edit: nvm

Yeah (but probably not)

I don't know who "feels bigger," but I will say that NewJeans seems to lack individuality. They appear to be significantly more popular and more well-known as a group than as individuals. I wouldn't be able to tell you hardly anything about them.

Weirdly I thought this was about physical size.

I have this insane conspiracy theory about THAT.

we are all living in our bubble due to social media.

You must use hard data to prove that (G)-idle members are more popular than NJ members.

At least in TikTok, I think Hanni is probably more popular than all (G)-idle members.

That's what I've been saying all along. Newpants are popular as a group but individuals, nope. Aespa have more popular members cuz of Karina, IVE with Wonyoung and Yujin. Gidle has miyeonand soyeon. And those I mentioned are bigger than any NJ members. I've yet to finish any group content from them, they pretty boring. I would want to watch a minji solo content than the group

If any of the foreign line of gidle go and work full time in China, they will be Goddess level there within 1 year, and that would be enough to make them more popular than any nj member.

But currently njs members are more popular globally.

there's no right or wrong answer...

everything is subjective since the key issue is "feels bigger"

what does one mean by bigger?

regardless Gidle have been around for longer and the members have been in the public eye for longer so maybe that's what one means by feels bigger???
