Debut that disappointed you the most for 5th generation groups

Babymonster. Felt like BLACKPINK at home

MEOVV as well. I LIKED the intro videos and the Teddy stuff had me much more excited for their debut than... other groups but the song itself just left me "eh"... I'll give them another chance though

Groups I had low to NO expectations for but still disappointed: Babymonster and ILLIT

Meovv probably. Riize I guess as well expected more from an SM BG but they were a dud.

Meovv as well

Meovv and babymonster

Illit. I knew companies are greedy, but Jesus.

It was a long time ago since I had any real expections for any group before debut, so I don't really get disappointed either. Sure I'm "curious" about some groups like Babymonster, and I think they have done pretty well. Next SME groups will be "intresting". I knew I hade some expections for Tri.be., but I don't really now what happen to them......

Babymonsters debut disappointed me at the time because they don't need to be doing BP ripoff music and because Batter Up isnt good.

My expectations for TBL gg were related to members anticipated not Teddy himself so they disappeared when members teasers came out. So now they are kinda doing how i would expect a new GG to perform.

BM debut felt underwhelming because of YG shenanigans i remember how much he delayed that shit/ releasing batter up without Ahyeon/no music show promos whatsoever. Post Sheesh they are doing well within expectation.

Meow for sure, what is Teddy thinking?

all of them. i think the 5th gen is just not for me. i don’t find any of the new groups appealing enough to stan at this current time.

i like katseye a lot but not sure if they’re considered kpop.

Babymonster, they don't have the yg vibe and their debut song was very underwhelming. YG should also stick to smaller groups imo, they work better this way.

However, at the same time I didn't expect a lot from yg after Treasure's debut. The newer groups just don't have the star power or stage presence the older groups were known for.

Meovv debut was better, the song is still underwehlming and forgettable but the members shine more (I still struggle with the babymonster members) and have good stage presence.
