As for IVE being the next blackpink. I really don’t see it. Their individual members have far too little brand rankings (minus wonyoung), plus part of Blackpink’s appeal is their solo brand reputation, which aespa does have. So far, there’s only two popular members on IVE. I don’t think aespa would have the same trajectory as twice.

However, i see IVE as a group that will consistently make international hits as well. I just don’t see their individual brand rep being as big as BP.

the way you're only doing this become some "blinks" are attacking aespa ignoring the fact that this has been some sones\SM stans entire personality for more than a decade now

This tbh. I dont like bp and aespa wars lmao. whatever. People are saying SM is mediaplaying, who tf cares. I remember the time YG was mediaplaying blackpink, it works. Get over it, it’s their fcking job.

Round two to reuse my joke:

I got some next level second hand cringe from that video

but yes Aespa going places when even old geezers use it as a promotional piece

Sameee

Anyone knows how i can transfer this to k-pop srction? I accidentally made it here

Period

Twice then aespa then bp i feel. BP had insane debut though.

Like damn? It’s so obvious that translation sites are so against them

Winter, wonyoung like there’s only two. Though Winter prolly leads bc of the GOT stint. But ive just debuted, so Wonyoung’s impact is actually insane

Anyone have seen proofs from chinese fans? Mostly big chinese accts send proofs just like aespa and bp to stop sajaegi rumours. Meanwhile, i’ve yet to see some proofs from these “chinese” fans and they have few followers on weibo… not even at the topmof qq music

Quote from Sweet-Spice

you'd think a certain fandom who went through similar stuff due to a company's shenanigans would be more sympathetic but...

JYP's new toys are gonna have it tough, will pray for them. Gals deserve better.

Color me curious. As far as im reading, all criticisms were directed at JYP. Did anyone here continually propagate a bullying rumor, shit on their faces, or whatever? Bc I would be sympathetic by then. Yall act like this is the entirety of what yall did to aespa LMAO

Don't worry guys, there are good fusion genres out there. It doesn't need to be disjointed.

I still like many disjointed songs. There’s no memorable parts for me on o.o

I really hope there’s someone from their team that’s already going back to the board and thinking of another meaning to MIXX. Because saying that Avante Garde pop is unique to them is NOT it. I would expect this kind of audacity from SM, but never JYP damn.

Like imagine that the whole meaning of your group name is the concept of your song styles and claiming it as uniquely yours? That’s so embarassing.

Payola exist in Korea?

Next level in Korea could be like the ‘gee’ and ‘cheer up’ of 4th gen, their dominance is like a smaller twice 2016.

But I feel like they are lacking in a song that is big outside of Korea, gee was very popular in sea and tt launched twice high up in Japan

I might be wrong tho

Next Level is quite popular in SEA actually. It’s still charting on SEA countries’ spotify

StayC will be there or IVE. They need one group with public presence. And aside aespa, it’s only those two

Unexpected… top 5 soon? Djidjdjs

Yes ive entered both billboard global 200(peak-#68) and global 200 exl USA(peak-#38) . Ive has been charting on Apple chart for more than 20 days. They have the highest peak among 4th gen groups at #34 on Apple music global chart. I am not sure if any 4th gen group has shown this much longevity.

As i figured. GGs usually have genuine streams that is not focused on one platform unlike BGs. Also color me corrected, IVE seems to be the 2nd 4th gen to chart on apple music global, aespa was the first and they charted for two weeks as far as i see

Quote from atropos

Playlisting or whatever at the end people decide to stream it. It's also charting decently on Apple music something other popular 4th gen groups haven't achieved yet.

Im pretty sure that aespa has entered and sustained a worldwide apple music charting, idk much about itzy but i think they also have one on their singles.

Also the playlisting issue is whatever. Did IVE enter BBGlobal 200? If it does, then i think that solidifies their streams on spotify and the status of their song as a popular song within international k-pop community. But if it’s not, i’d say that IVE fans are neglecting streaming on other platforms… ITZY and aespa are the only 4th gen groups that are doing well on BB Global 200 and actually reflects well on their spotify streams..

aeive slaying charts what a win.

I don't think Karina's visual is on par with Yoona?

So any group with no yoona in it has no visual? Mind is not minding

Quote from quarkie

A song having corny lyrics doesn't have anything to do with being popular in the west. Have you heard some of the songs that are popular here? They're not exactly gonna be crowned poet laureate.
