Aespa is getting so much unnecessary hate

  • Every other say I see these unknown kpop bgs performing on western festivals and shows. And no one bats an eye and for once a company "sm" is prioritising their gg over bg and suddenly everyone is an expert.

  • Happens with every successful group

  • Aespa is one if not the biggest girl group of 4th gen the hate is apart of their success.

  • people act like these 4 girls killed their entire families or bias group the way they attack them nonstop.

  • blinks are just hating on aespa bc coachella is one of main achievements they use as a bragging right & if aespa does well on main stage, they'll lose that one big thing they have. Hope aespa completely owns the stage!

    They need to get use to it cus aespa will be performing a lot on these US festivals and shows.

  • Y’all are acting like the hate is mostly coming from blinks when it stage whole Kpop fandom who is comparing the two

  • We have come a full circle. Blinks are saying the exact same things Armys used to say about BP when they started performing in the US. It's hilarious that it's ok for them 'to hate on successful women'.

    They also forget that two months before their Coachella performance, BP got criticism even from their own fans because their late show performances were totally amateur like and they were bad. But two months later they did way better. They worked on their skills, the crowd helped them and the weed in the air helped some more.

    Aespa can do it too. Let them prove themselves.

  • Aespa is going to completely own the stage and everyone in the anon section will look stupid for doubting them

  • Depends where you're seated really. I remember when Blackpink got invited to Coachella and this site and twitter were in stitches over what a weak festival it is and no-one goes there and how they'd make no noise and perform to a pile of dust. Now I see it's suddenly being presented as a major achievement.

    no that's not the reason blinks are annoyed how sm is restoring to mediaplay it's obvious sm pulled some strings so they can perform there they weren't in the lineup only added in the last minute


    on naver you'll see how all the searches are making sure aespa is the headlines highlighting the main stage lol Sahara's tent was bigger than other stages and most dj's were at the sahara stage it was a big deal then.

  • blinks are especially vicious these days bc of the lack of cb. trust me, treasure is getting a lot of hate too just for existing.

    Aespa have given us zero good performances though? Like BP were always fine in Korea, it's just actually performing in person with different camerawork on late night shows that they were bad. Why are you people always inventing new scenarios? Also if you want to believe a Korean girl group with not even a bubbling under and or one appearance on US Spotify can just appear on main stage without some SM cash you are actually delusional...pinning the blame on blinks as though there aren't SM antis everywhere on this forum lol

    Are you a new fan? BP were bad during the DDDD comeback performances to the point that even YG commented on it. And they are still awkward and uncoordinated half of the time. They do rely on fierce facial expressions though. And as you said the magical Korean camerawork that hid the imperfections that were obvious when they performed abroad.

    Half of the performers there are nugus so they all rely on connections and labels. BP a pretty much unknown artist had their performance shown live on yt and on Times Square. That didn't come cheap for the label either.

    And even on the main forum, it was mostly Blinks who were triggered by the news. Funny if you think how much they used to hate Armys' gatekeeping Western promotions back then.

  • These girls have literally done nothing, so it makes sense that people don't appreciate that they're getting these opportunities that other groups got with hard work. But it's fine, just like the Thanksgiving Day parade, this will do nothing for these girls or SM lol

    well guess it's blinks turn to experience another company mediaplaying achievements of their group by (indirect) comparing it with another, bigger groups achievement... if armys need to get over yg mediaplaying bp with bts in the beginning of their western popularity, blinks should too.

    this really isn't something to defend/be happy about..

    you're pretty much admitting that the moment bp couldn't depend on fancy camera work (like koreans usually do) & they had to depend on in-person- charms, they failed? again, your words.

    BP's performances were shown in Times Square because they are signed to a US label (which they were signed to after they charted on BB100) whose literal job is to promote them in America? What are you on about LMAO this has absolutely nothing to do with the discussion


    also the fact that I was a casual BP stan back in 2018 who literally lives in NYC and didn't know about the Times Square thing (shows you how much this did for them in the US lol) but an SM stan was that bad in their business

    They were performing on tiny stages wearing heels and short dresses during their first trip to America. Of course they were not great? Before and after that, BP had performed at concerts and other shows inside and outside of Korea and delivered good performances. My point is two panned performances that were bad due to inexperience and camera work is not reflective of BP's entire performance history before Coachella...can link you to their Japanese debut or SBS Gayo So Hot performance or perhaps even that thing they did with JYP in 2017 (which they were literally sitting down for so no camerawork needed at all LOL) if you want other testimony that BP were not the horrible pre-Coachella performers you want them to be to fit your narrative based on two late night shows

    Blinks used to get so annoyed back then and they are doing the same shit now.

  • People are always jealous of groups success

  • You don't know what hate is, people are sharing their views on main and anon and I have hardly seen any disrespect or bashing. Even on twitter it does feel like usual kpop stans drama but nothing really serious

  • it's not hate towards aespa but calling out SM for trying to use mediaplay by invalidating blackpink's achievements

    they wanted aespa to be the first in something and made it about the stage when it was blackpink the first kpop girl group that performed at Coachella.


    no one really cares about main stage let's be real even nugus performed in the main stage now, some stages are better suited for certain artists, Sahara has the biggest stage better production etc. Heck, even madonna performed there in 2015 that will tell you something.

  • I'm not a blink and not everyone expressing their doubt about the Aespa's Coachella performance is a blink either. In fact, I actually feel like outside of Mys or SM stans, majority of the Kpop community is actually in agreement on this one. It's true Aespa isn't exactly known for their amazing performances so ofc we are going to talk.

  • The only reason to hate on Aespa is because of Giselle's terrible rap skills. Other than that, they will be fine.

  • most people are hating SM mediaplay not Aespa. You know what happened when Blackpink was announced performing at Coachella?

    - Viral hate tweets saying they're the worst performers ever

    - Slept with Coachella organizer

    - YG paid

    - Coachella organizers support anti gay organization, Blackpink is evil for going there


    And more.... Aespa "hate" is nothing compared to what Blackpink got.

    American or not, a label's job is to do whatever they can to promote their artist.

    Definitely, just because you didn't know it, nobody else knew it too. Lmao, we judge success by your knowing or not.

    Luv, some of us have been in kpop for years so we get to know things. It's not that deep.

  • SM : /literally reports an actual fact with no mentions of other groups.

    Blinks : MeDiApLaY!!! InVaLiDaTiNg BlAcKpInK!!! LeTs BuRn ThEm!!!

  • My's have been flexing on Blackpink on twitter, acting like Aespa have outdone them by getting to Coachella's main stage so early in their career, so of course Blinks are going to bite back. Aespa are there because Kanye withdrew last minute and they needed to fill the time. Several acts have been added to main stage for that reason. It can't be compared to Blackpink's experience. If My's had stuck to being excited Blinks would have been more positive.

    Did they personally told u that? There are so many unknown small artists performing there Why's it so hard for y'all to digest that aespa was also invited?

  • I'm not a new kpop fan I was here was BP coachella was announced.

    I didn't mention blinks specifically.

    blinks are angry that sm use the title Aespa was the FIRST KPOP GIRL GROUP to ever performed on "main stage" in Coachella. SM is Shaddy, cos is a different stage, and so the use that to say they were the FIRST KPOP Group there...that is why Blinks are rabid, not because aespa

  • Did they personally told u that? There are so many unknown small artists performing there Why's it so hard for y'all to digest that aespa was also invited?

    Because all invited guests appear on the posters - unless they're just the invited guests of invited guests, which they may be. Aespa may not be high profile but they're also not some hippie two flute act playing by the portapotties. They would have appeared on the posters.

    there is literally no lie in SM's statement, you all are just pressed and threatened. what happened to not hating on successful women? right, that was just a front.
