  • despite the overpromotion and tiktok videos, it did not hit it big like money

    Approved the thread.
  • overpromotion where?

  • The song does not appeal to the west

  • too experimental all over the place

  • name 1 4th gen with a viral west song?

  • Is it even a song? It is hook line after hook line with multiple beat switches. Cringe. Not good enough.

  • Because that kind of messy songs that feels like you're listening to 100 different songs while your head begins to hurt isn't something the West appreciates

  • Aespa may have songs break through from time to time in the future, but as a group they're maybe dead in the water.


    Very low charisma levels, very "korean beauty standards" looking with Karina taking it to the next level indeed. It's for the best for them to stay Asia-famous. If the western media gets too many looks at Karina's face she could end up as posterchild for "why do the Koreans maim themselves like this?" tabloid fodder. Best to stay where she's worshiped.

    We love good body shaming/ ps shaming and racism masked as fake concern ! mods pray tell why's this allowed but posts calling users female dogs are not?

  • Business wise, there's way too much competition. Song wise, there are alot of better song. Also it's much more difficult for girl groups to break out anywhere. They need alot of fans to rallied behind them. They got female fans, but nothing compared to male groups, the female fans from male groups are much more noticeable.


    So Kpop diversity is like Engineering school; for every 1 female, there are 10 male. Kpop is the reverse.

    I never mentioned her body. It's also not racist to point out that an Asian group in Asia is famous in Asia, you really don't need to reach that hard. And no fake concern, if the Daily Mail gets its hooks into her I'm sure her stans will be there to educate about Korean Beauty Standards.


    But I apologize for plastic-surgery shaming Karina. It's her butcher surgeon who deserves to be shamed.
