Which western kpop venture will be the most successful?

none they are all going to flop. They want locals to listen to these groups but aren't they gonna build them up through other group's fandoms?? That's guaranteed failure plus kpop is not taken seriously or even acknowledged that much here in the west

I'm voting JYP.

The US don't have a popular GG since Fifth Harmony disbanded.

Plus, as you said, GG are better received by the GP, which might be what they need.

Yeah but if they do have a gg, it can’t be a LARGE cookie cutter group like let’s say Twice.

A group like 2ne1/BP etc. with a little edge, because even the spice girls weren’t JUST bubblegum pop

Hybe cause they got UMG & well hybe

Don't know about others but nct Hollywood is gonna tank

yeah, I mean look at sperm, living proof that you can't just take a group of extremely talented peeps and hope for the best

I honestly hope that South American group succeeds, I'm tired of people catering to White America (this kinda sounds racist, but I'm yt, so I guess I can say it :-D )

if all of them are gonna be cringey as superm...

none.

with hindsight in play -- a llocal bg or gg would have a steep uphill battle in terms of getting recognised especially against korean counterparts.
