    Boy Group Version


    I'm limited to 20 options so I had to drop some groups so it's nothing personal if I left a group out :pepelove1: Sorry Girls Day


    To clarify for this question, their music, outfits, and MVs they debuted with (and released after) would be updated for modern tastes so they don't seem dated but will still be similar. They'll still keep their same vibe overall

    Baby V.O.X for sure. If they were big in China, Hong Kong, and Thailand in 2003, then they could be bigger in other countries today.

    So they would be the gg to dominate the international Asian market

    SNSD, TWICE, and T-ara songs would become viral on TikTok and fit the bright concepts coming back into style.


    2NE1, Blackpink, f(x), 4Minute would hit the girl crush/bad ass popular concept now a days!

    SNSD. They achieved their shit before the era of social media, before YouTube going super Saiyan, low album sales and hard for ifans to get music (physically or digitally).

    SNSD for sure.


    They'd dominate the variety game in a very short time as the unequaled variety queens they are and thus win the hearts and minds of the Korean general public very quickly, and they'd show to be a top tier allround group, that has top vocalists, strong, versatile dance ability and strong stage presence, while effortlessly owning a wide range of diverse concepts.


    Additionally, people'd notice that SNSD have ace vocalists, ace dancer(s), ace visual(s), and ace variety queen(s). In short, covering the whole range of important idol areas.

    SNSD imo, out of all popular Kpop GG I've seen, they're the most versatile in terms of concept and songs genre, so I think they would adjust well. And their visuals work just fine with current time as well.

    SNSD for sure.

    True, especially with post 2nd gen groups generally lacking in variety, they would definitely stand out for that. I wonder if that they debuted now, if they would actually change the game and bring back the importance of variety for idols :whatr: Other groups would definitely try to utilize it and compete if another group blew up in variety like that I think


    Quote from icyruios

    All Big 3 groups will do well.


    I think Sistar will do well, like they could have some sort of StayC-ish kind of start


    Quote from catzi

    I'm pretty sure f(x) would be a lot more popular if they debuted nowadays.

    Yeah, I actually think both of these groups would do even better than before if they debuted today

    True, variety talents were a really big thing in 2nd gen era and a lot of groups were pretty good at it, which made all the interactions between the various groups and members of different groups really enjoyable to watch (Invincible Youth, Star King etc :D:P ).

    But sadly enough, variety as an important aspect along with cross group collaborations declined from 3rd gen hence.
