Do you want Aespa to promote more individually like Blackpink?

Even bp used to stick together when they were rookie until 2018

it still too early for aespa they have too many akgaes it will not be good for them in the long run

Uhh maybe some small things here and there, but it's too early to talk about individual activities imo.

knowing SM girl groups, they would eventually get to promote individually but not this soon. I could see them start doing OST or collab project/Sm station, which SM is very good at but to debut as a solo or actress is too soon for them.

No

Not yet. Soon enough though.

sure if that's what the members want

It's SM they wont get it until like 3-4 years

not at all, they just debuted a year ago, it's too early for all of that, plus, I always prefer group work over solo work.

Well it sm. They willy surely promote karina as actress, winter as soloist+actress, NingNing soloist and might be actress too and promote in china, Giselle might follow wendy path as a radio dj.

Too soon but eventually they will Karina and Ningning are quite popular in China and Winter and Giselle are growing fast in Japan

i want to see more aespa contents, we didn't have much until now what more if they promote individually?

Solo activities are definitely crucial for having long lasting career in k ent business but they still need to establish themselves as a group and one hit song isn't really enough

But that was because DDDD was kind of a big hit for them, domestically, internationally, and after that Jennie get a solo right away. But Aespa already hit big with Next Level so they can start individual promotion now?

you can´t be compared DDDD the 1 billion hit with next level. No shady to Aespa but that is a no no for me. Next level is big in the kpop world plus in korea and that is amazing, but DDDD was big World Wide and maked a lot of people outside of kpop to get to know kpop. Is not remotely the same, so this comparison is a fail for me

Karina will not be an actress and I don't know who came up with it. She herself said that she is interested in fashion and cosmetics. Winter would go into acting, NingNing in fashion side, and Giselle in rapp i think.

but it's too early to have such a powerful impact as blackpink when they started their individual activities. girls are still stressed even in the group.

Yeah I compare them because they are both songs that solidify the “brand” or identity of the group. After DDDD, all Blackpink members have very clear image(Jennie badass rapper, Rose indie singer,…). Same with Aespa where Next Level with Naevis, Kosmo,… create a clear enough identity for them. But success speaking then DDDD is definitely more worldwide, though Next Level is more viral in Korea.

but the fact is that it was the security that DDDD's success brought to the group that allowed them to do solo promotions. Aespa had a great year, but they have to get established first, especially when kpop fans enjoy so much the group activities and see the interactions between the members and with so many big groups debuting in 2021/2022, the fans could migrate you know? (especially Koreans), it is too risky, maybe in a year or two

Blackpink is the leading K-pop group with a huge fan base worldwide. The members all have their own fandom. So, there are a fierce competition between the individual fandoms of the members. The more albums or products Blinks buy, the more Blackpink members prove their popularity. That is why Blinks constantly support to assert the reputation of their bias.
