K-pop is one big circle that keeps on repeating is self

Quote

Exo ----> SHINee

Nct------> Exo / SHINee

Txt----> SHINee

so everybody is SHINee?

Quote

k-pop idols are more polished and everything is executed to the perfection now

If everything is too polished, they will loose individuality

its not unique to kpop

Quote from nana18

Blackpink ------> Super junior

blackpink are SUPER JUNIOR! I KNEW IT!

Yes, there is a typical 7-year circle cycle.

If NCT were a true hybrid of EXO and SHINee, they would be d0pe AF!

I don't think the G-Idle and 4Minute comparison is accurate either.

Itzy reminds me more of f(x) than Miss A. Treasure is partially modeled after Seventeen. Jihoon was even taking notes during this week's Inkigayo interview sequence with Seventeen.

Blackpink ------> Super junior

sorry but TREASURE is TREASURE not Exo or even Seventeen

The only thing similar between SNSD and Twice are the number of members and the NGG tag

Treasure -----> NCT

When I first got into KPOP, I thought NCT was some kind of U18 Korean Football (Or soccer) Team. The shortest member is the goalkeeper.

I think every group has its own charms

even though there might be some things that are similar

this but unironically

so OP even if we accept what you say is true...maybe it's because certain people (like me) who didn't experience the second generation and has only know the newer groups so to speak...
