It’s the fact they’ve put out experimental songs, noise music and cute song and chart well the only girl groups to chart this good and switch their sounds is girls gen and bp. Every other girl group either has a specific concept that does better e.g red velvet or lose the general support e.g jyp gg. It’s amazing they have strong support no matter the concept in a way they’re set up to succeed no matter if it’s cute or experimental comeback

that's true actually

If that was true what’s wrong with it, the same happened for snsd and twice? And it’s not true anyways, have you seen tiktok and Instagram reels? so many Korean public are doing the dct challenge it’s blowing up. I’ve just watched a tiktok of an old Korean couple challenging their grandkids to do it after them. It’s the impact

It's a multitude of things. There's tons of groups that experiment with new sounds, but they aren't just as popular. You have to also take tiktok into consideration and the way news trend nowadays, i.e twitter. Just like how Snapchat and Vine was back then. Song's catchy and easy to trend for a short 10 sec video. It's also a boost when they're from SM, they already on a pedestal.
Im not saying the girls aren't talented, but any other groups who does the same thing won't be as loved and popular. The whole song doesn't need to be good, as long as a snippet of it can get trend, like on tiktok, then it'll automatically make the song good. I cannot dispute or prove how this work, but have you ever listened to a snippet of a song on tiktok, then when you go and find the real song and realizes that only that snippet is catchy. Happens to me way too many times. That's why people say only BP can do it, only aespa can do it, Twice etc. Of course they can, when they got such a huge established branding behind them already. It'll be more surprised if they cannot.
People denying aespa girls talents are trolls, but I can't in good faith say that Next Level or Savage is a good song. I also cannot deny that they trend with the general public, but that's a different matter vs a good song. Maybe the songs so bad it got good? What Does The Fox Say, Friday by Rebecca Black, trended real quick back then, imagine how much faster they'll be with today's GP taste.

I don't really see a difference between Savage and Next Level. You classify one as experimental and the other as noise music? Both are the same to me - very noisy with nonsense lyrics about Kwangya and Naevis. Dreams Come True is also not Aespa's song - it was massive on its own long before Aespa covered it (and the remake is very good, props to BoA)
Aespa haven't really implemented a major concept change and still managed to keep scoring hits anyway. Neither have Blackpink really (they will never change their concept, let's be honest). I think that Aespa are trendy atm, but not at the level of IU, BTS, BP. Those groups + IU can get b-sides into the top 10 of Melon 24Hits in a day without promotions after releasing at 2pm on a Friday, even if the song is full English. Time will tell if Aespa can get to that level
