IVE is the first girl group since T-ara that deserves their success

Most Big 3 groups dont deserve their success. They are automatically a success 5 years before they debut because they are big 3. Even new kpop fans from yesterday know about Big 3 privilege. And no there is no such thing as Big 4. You need more than 1 successful group to join the elite.

Starship has brought top notch music, visuals, talent, and charisma with IVE and now are swimming in the success of their amazing achievement of a damn near perfect girl group. We haven't seen a non big 3 girl group achieve this since T-ara.

So many groups were poised to have this same success but fucked it up by releasing horrible music because Blackpink made it trendy.

IVE has taught everyone else a valuable lesson. Just be yourself and people will support you.

RIP 4th gen girl groups post IVE.

IVE truly deserves their success. They'll achieve greater as they progress

But drew oppar, notch music? visuals? talent? and charisma? Then by your definition bp is a perfect girl group!

Would BP be successful without BB and 2NE1? Classic Big 3 privilege.

Quote from timedisplace

When did we get to the point in humanity to where we're deciding whether teen girls deserve success? What about the boys???

Oh I'm sure this also applies to the boys but I don't follow boy groups so I'm not a good judge.

I don’t even stan them but this stayc erasure Black eyed pilsung’s music is goat material man

Also i wonder when the inevitability that is lessarafim smashing happens later, does it mean they do deserve their success too bc according to drew in the op big 4’s privilege doesn’t exist?

If Lesserfirm blows up it will be because of Sakura not because of Big Hybe.
