Would you say that BTS was the mold for TXT's creation?

But bts and txt have no similar vibes? If they did i might have listened to them lol. They have way softer sound. Everyone here liked their debut. I'm not everyone lol

As for debuting them, it was expected, they couldn't rely only on bts, they needed more groups

Obviously they saw bts succes and believed they could create another group with the resources they have. Txt is from bighit so they will have some similarities in how they were formed but their concept and sound is still very different from bts so they did well with distinguishing the two.

No, BTS was created from the ground up and weren't even originally planned as an idol group. Bighit recruited rappers and producers at first, then added vocalists as time went on.

They definitely used some of the same training methods when building TXT's lineup (the members said that they trained with a big emphasis in hip hop), but TXT debuted with a completely different sound and concept from BTS. TXT is built around a high fantasy concept with a pop-rock sound, whereas BTS originally did rap and R&B and transitioned into EDM and pop as they got older.

EDIT: Bighit was smart to debut TXT as visually distinct from BTS, because even with a debut song like Crown, people still weren't happy that they weren't like BTS. If TXT had debuted with a similar hip hop concept, they would have been mocked even more than they were.

TXT is so far separated from BTS in my mind that I sometimes forget they're in the same company lol

BTS has been used as a mold to many current groups but all the companies (HB included) failed to pinpoint the most important features... and those are the members themselves, who are irreplaceable and inimitable.

I feel like groups like ateez or SKZ are far closer to bts than txt ever was lol.

Hmmm no LOL. I love TXT too but there is zero molded from BTS in any way - and I think Big Hit didn’t even try to do that. They wanted 2 unique groups which they have.

They are so different from each other that sometimes I forget they are from the same label.
