I think it depends how you look at it. I don't know if Aespa or IVE get's more streams overall (counters streams on Spotify, Youtube etc). Good indicator will be a touring power in the future. There are a lot of factors that should be compared.
So currently my opinion will be based ONLY on Spotify chart streams (keep in mind, that Spotify chart streams don't count ALL the streams, but shows where the artist had song popular enough/strong enough fandom to appear on the country daily chart).
I would say that the most popular globally is LE SSERAFIM > IVE > aespa
But most popular overall is IVE - with them being the most popular in Asia IVE > LE SSERAFIM > aespa
