(Poll) Is Twice One Hit Away From Being THE Top Group In K Pop?

We all know that BTS and Blackpink are the two top groups of their respective genre. For me, I feel that both are beyond K Pop now. Blackpink never felt like a K Pop group; They were built for an international audience, as their numbers have shown in recent years.

And we all know BTS's track record. Don't take the whole "not sounding like K Pop" thing to heart. It's only a good thing.

And we all know who sits at number 3, everyone, INCLUDING JYPE, knows it's Twice.

If you're wondering why I have to bring up BTS and BP and think that I'm somehow getting Twice "dragged", there's the door, please let it hit you hard enough to get a concussion.

Now, I can go on and on about how Twice has been cut off at every corner by their own label but I'll beat that dead horse another time.

While the gap between Twice and BTS/ BP is huge, I feel that a worldwide hit would shorten that gap and if the right pieces fell into place, I can see a race to the top for Twice in short order.

And please miss me with the whole digital/ physical BS. Think bigger. Twice has the foundation, they have the charisma, they have the marketability, all they need, IMO, is one song......

They only one hit away

They'll be there and save the day

Let's hope so

Quote from thataurora

They'll get their worldwide recognition for sure but not on the same level as BTS/BP

I think they can surpass BP easy but BTS is a whole other mountain.

Quote from Pikachu-Senpai

They were top group with Cheer Up and TT. As a ONCE I can acknowledge they've already reached their peak and now other groups are shining.

As long as our girls are happy and healthy, I'm happy as a fan

But my Twice World Domination!

Quote from daniel-cruz

Even if they get hit, the hardest thing is to maintain that momentum. JYP isn't known for that

I hate it when you're right

.... just for that, be on the lookout for a thread that will have praise, half slander EXO (or at least SM....)!

Quote from JaSida

I don't think as BTS and BP but they can get somewhat relevant like EXO, NCT and so on.

They can surpass BP easy. More marketability, potential for a bigger audience. BTS is too far gone now.

Quote from I-dont-cAre

A big hit will certainly lessen the gap but won’t be enough to reach bps levels imo.. there is a lot of things working against twice, their company, sharing resources with younger groups and having 9 members.. I think a fourth gen group will play catch up before them

Wouldn’t mind being wrong tho

I agree with everything but the 9 members deal. I don't know where this narrative from K Pop fand comes from.

And someone who was in the music business, I can tell you, they don't give a flying FUCK how many people are in your group.

It's really all a matter if you can draw money or not once you get past all the red tape.

Quote from zuzuhhaa

i think its a big overstatement calling them a top group after one more hit considering that bts is still at much much higher level, whether us onces would like to admit it or not

I only mentioned BTS because for one, they are the benchmark, and two, I didn't want to come off like I was pitting Twice against BP..... although I kinda am but that's not my intention.

I know you guys are smart enough to realize that tho.

Quote from Armedryu

They are already All Time Best Selling Girl Group, what more do you want them to do?

I want them to LOOK like the all time best selling GG but JYPE isn't ready for that discussion.

Quote from Afriyieau1

If Twice can get a hit song like gangnam style or dynamite levels I can see them becoming bigger than BP (BP still does not have a gp hit outside the kpop bubble) and getting closer to BTS. So in a way you are right.

But if Butter ends up being a 2nd dynamite or even bigger, then I doubt a hit song like gangnam style can put Twice above BTS.

Damn, I wish I could give out two best answers. Again, I only mentioned BTS because, well, why wouldn't you? LOL.

Quote from z1

JYP will make them try sooner or later. But 1 hit isn't really enough to surpass any of Blackpink's achievements internationally, let alone BTS ones.

Naw, a giant hit like Dynamite or Gangnam Style will do. It's all about the follow up.

Quote from JaSida

sorry my friend but nobody touching Blackpink and or surpass them anytime soon. If JYP artists, only group closest to somewhat success of BTS and Blackpink it would be ITZY but there are long shoot and need massive luck.

I strongly disagree. BP already has a ceiling thanks to their music unless YG wants to take a chance. They did with LSG....

Quote from Tic_tac_toe

I think they’re are fairly behind bp to do that. In terms of international recognition as well as album sales.

They can ofc have a huge hit in Korea but even that they haven’t been able to do in a bit with their concept change.

So overall I’ll say no?

Quote from atropos

No. Bp is growing every year. If they could surpass bp they would have done it. One bp song out streams whole twice album.

Jyp should make their position in sk and Japan stronger.

I think some of you aren't getting what I mean by one song but

Quote from Tic_tac_toe

But they’re gonna grow a whole bunch imo esp how well their ULs are on Spotify. They’ll reach new peaks for sure.

You think so?

Quote from daniel-cruz

Yep.

Don't you dare Slander EXO

Anything for my faves!..... which EXO is?

(Dammit, I have to find another way to break you ....... hold up a minute! I see that you're married...... interesting..... )

Quote from atropos

One song won't put them above bp. That's it. And I doubt they'll get that a song as big as hylt/d4/ktl.

But they're growing and there is a gap with the rest of the groups international popularity.

Oh, one song will do it

Quote from daniel-cruz

This ain't a donation marraige. Nothing can break it. Not even a rage fueled drunk CAPYBARA!!!!!

Three things:

1. Can we just appreciate how daniel-cruz exposed AKP Marriages? (We could have used someone like you in the old Anti Marriage Committee)

2. Rules and Bones were made to be broken!

And 3. I'll have you know that I haven't been drunk in 20 years sir
