debut days they were praised by everyone. especially international fans i remember bg stans specifically were obsessed with them bc 2016 was still the year when ggs were coming back with cute concepts and a lot of international stans didn’t really enjoy that and would even shit on ggs for being too childish. basically the hate bp gets now was what twice experienced in 2016 and then it switched after square up.
one thing that was frustrating was that yg promised we’d get 8 mvs but we only ended up with 4 by the end of the year... looking back idk how anyone believed we yg of all companies would drop 8 mvs in 4 months lmfaoooo but yeah a lot of people were mad when they didn’t fulfil that promise...
jennie was superrrr popular at debut too i feel like that’s why i was shocked to see people switch up so fast in 2018 because she was THAT bitch when they debuted.
lisa’s outfits were a big topic like everyone thought she had the worst clothes especially that feathery dress at the 2017 gaon awards i think? and then she ended up saying in their ot4 vlive that it was her fave dress i thought that was funny maybe she saw how blinks reacted?
and i remember when people thought rosé and jisoo looked super alike no one really says that anymore though
