    Approved the thread.

    Twice will disband and it will rock Onces world lol everyone else that has common sense already knows and probably doesn’t care about this happening. Lord knows knets don’t….

    twice will maybe disband or go on hiatus towards the end of the year

    aespa 1st full album break records and Midzy will still claim 4th gen leaders


    BTS enlist


    BLACKPINK 2nd album breaks even more records 2mil sales


    Twice disband/ hiatus


    Red velvet indefinite hiatus


    NCT half enlist half not enlist

    BTS gets military excemption and Kpoppies do major meltdown breaking akp all time records -5000 member engagement at any one time.

    BTS will enter a 3rd year of chasing the Grammys

    All post-IZ*ONE groups will flop, except the one from HYBE

    The other GG from HYBE will flop

    Kep1er will flop

    JYPn will flop

    YG will postpone Baemon to 2023

    TWICE will disband

    Enhypen will be crowned the leader of 4th gen boy groups

    bts, aespa and bp will still break records

    bg stans will continue to pray for bts not to release an album so their faves could finally win a relevant daesang

    big 4th gen bgs will continue to perform better intrernionally (spotify streams)

    :cryingr:

    By the gg from HYBE that won't flop you mean the I-LAND gg? I agree with this and the one about Enhypen :pepe-shades:

    -twice will sadly disband

    -many disbandments, many 3rd gen groups having a big decrease in popularity

    -4th gen will take over completely (bts will stay safe through the next 100 gens to come tho)

    -enhypen will grow massively and earn that "4th gen leaders" title

    -top gg groups ranking will change with all those new debuts from big companies, we will see a tough and big competition next year

    -groups will start doing tours again and things will slowly go back to normal

    -another viral hit by group that nobody expected

    BTS and Blackpink comebacks and touring will break more records and overshadow all 4th gen groups and they won't completely take over even tho some will be sucessful.

    - BTS military exemption

    - Blackpink won't have a comeback yet again

    - Twice will disband

    - Many smaller GGs disbanding such as April, CLC, Momoland

    - Xiumin solo debut

    - Red Velvet early 2022 comeback then poof, solo CB for Joy, no solo for Seulgi

    - Oh My Girl will lose a member

    - Hybe NGG will will roty with ease

    - Aespa will do well but drop behind Hybe NGG

    - Ive will be another Pristin/Gugudan

    - Kep1er will flop digitally but sell well

    - Apink comeback without Naeun, who later announces she's leaving the group

    - Jiyoon will leave Weeekly

    - BBC goes banktupt, Loona disbands

    - Top 5 BGs: BTS, Seventeen, NCT, Enhypen, Stray Kids

    - Top 5 GGs: Hybe NGG, Aespa, Stayc, Itzy, Oh My Girl

    - No 2nd gen reunions after T-Ara's flop.

    NCT 127 gets another "experimental" song that will make some people call it trash.

    While some others are going to be saying "iT's aRt, yOu uNcUlTuReD sWiNe"

    Twice won't resign. Ultimately disband, probably no solo success.


    BlackPink comeback do okay internationally like Lalisa and OTG, but continue the downward trend of LSG and their solo's.


    Aespa slowly decline like Savage did on Next Level, but stay Koreas fave for the year.


    Itzy's down trend in views and streams continues and their charting tanks further. More Lia accusations.


    NCT add it's 50th member.


    BTS dodge military and continue to dominate.

    Quote from Steamed Chestnuts & Venison (239)

    txt has much worse digitals than the boyz but people still call txt the 4th gen leaders which means digitals aren't everything. if enhypen surpasses them in everything else despite flopping in domestic charts, the crown is theirs

    Charting at #105 is flopping too :wellr:

    Moas just desperately needed to find something to brag about

    Exactly..saying that "group A is so much better than your flop faves" just because they charted in top 200 while the other group charted in top 400 isn't the flex they think it is ;(

    -only 1 hybe gg will be successful as they expected (ador)

    - ador will be the ultimate rival of aespa, the rest will falls short of comparisons

    - aespa will continue breaking records and they will hold their concert at the end of next year

    -4th gen bgs will continue to be irrelevant in charts

    -kep1er will tank on charts but sell well

    - bts will get the military exemptions and continue world domination

    -bp will release only 1 album then they will go on world tour

    -nct will start to decline when the members goes to military next year

    - All members in twice won't resign , some will stay and some will go and they will make subunit kinda like Oh GG

    - stayc will make it from non big4

    - history repeats again, no one could escape produce curse (ive, sakura & friends gg, etc)

    - jypn is itzy 2.0

    - red velvet will release an album then focusing on their solo career except irene since her solo was ended

    -Cube already given up on gidle. No matter how hard cube pushes lightsum they will ended up like clc

    -enhypen continue to be selling more albums than txt

    To my knowledge, the most streamed 4th gen groups on Melon;- (

    1) Izone

    2) gidle

    3) TXT 400m+

    4) Itzy

    -

    -

    -


    8) Stray kids 120m+

    ENHYPEN apart from bulk-buyin and streaming illegally, they really have no impact.


    Also, The most streamed 4th gen boy groups on Melon

    1) TXT

    2) TXT

    3) The Boyz Thrill ride

    4) TXT

    5( TXT


    Even TXT's b-side tracks rank higher than most 4th gen groups title songs. You can't keep lying to youself when the data is available on the internet..

    Um why are you using the total number of streams to push the wrong narrative that TXT is relevant when they're almost 3 years old and have much more albums? Obviously they'll have more streams than Enhypen. You sound stupid af.

    Also bitter about Enhypen sales? As if moas don't bulk buy :pepe-clown-gear:

    And there is nothing illegal about k-engenes focusing on Bugs

    Aespa won't flop and will still be seen as a trendy group but they won't release a song that'll do as good as next level digitally.

    Bulk buying has been practiced for years. However, you have to back it up. There's no noise, no impact. K-engenes? Don't make me laugh. They don't exist in the first place. It's all I-engenes and Niki's fans. Seems you you remember Bugs but forgot the most important part. Let's not dwell on the past right? It was kinda embarrassing.

    Correction. The most streamed 4th gen groups on Melon IN 2021. Yes, 2021.

    1) TXT

    2) TXT

    3) The Boyz Thrill ride

    4) TXT

    5( TXT

    Lmao yall acting like NCT will decline when they use the expanding concept to avoid declining

    lee sooman world domination

    Can you prove it or you're just talking out of your ass? What impact do TXT have? ^^ Obviously no one knows about them, they have no promo in SK apart from music shows and they just debuted. Doesn't mean that your faves are better. Comparing digital performance of a 3 y.o. group and a rookie doesn't even make sense. At least I don't stan BTS little brothers who I think will chart due to the BTS privilege.

    What are you even talking about? I'm lost

    Funny how you all think that South Korea charting > Worldwide charting. South Korea represents one country, one music market. Worldwide charting represents all the other music markets in the world. Enhypen is the most successful 4th gen group in Europe (judging by charts, by popularity, by demand for them here). Enhypen is also the top 4th gen boy group in Japan. On billboard they always chart very high on the biggest charts, better than most groups. They already had a viral hit a few months after debut.


    TXT, The boyz, Stray kids all have a very big domestic fandom. Enhypen lacks that domestic fandom. Of course groups with years of experience - one being the first group to debut after bts and the others participating in kingdom - will have much bigger domestic fandom. That explains why those groups chart better in korea and that's good, congrats to them. But you can not act like having a few more melon streams make you superior, especially when other groups are starting to lead in nearly every other category.
