Makes sense now that I think about it, the groups that debuted during late 2017-2019 didn't seem to belong to a clear cut generation. I guess 2019 can be considered early 4th gen if we want to push it however there's no way 2017-2018 groups can be seen as rookies.

Groups that debuted from 2020 onward are in an unique situation due to the pandemic, that's what makes them different from the previous generation imo.

YESS!!! 2020 GROUPS FEELS VASTLY DIFFERENT FROM THOSE BEFORE THEM. The pandemic has changed KPOP forever i think

2020 rookies aint dominating no one as 3r gen groups chart better, sell more, are more know but that logic we have wait other 5 years for everybody to disband or go on hiatus for a gen to dominate

and bts never doing that so a gen may never end and other begin

??? Tons of 3rd gen groups are disbanding already. Top GGs like TWICE and MMM are already passed their peak. Red Velvet is a toss up tbh but realistically they will get shafted soon too. BP is an anomaly obviously and we can’t just consider them as a normal gg.

Both cube and jyp are debuting/ debuted new girl groups so makes you wonder is it to join the 2020/ 21 rookies for 4th gen.

Definitely. They don’t want to be behind competition after all. I feel like cube obviously debuted g-idle as a 3rd gen group (their whole sound and concept is very 3rd gen) while JYP tried to start the new generation early but failed since obviously BP and other 3rd gen groups were still blowing up.

3.5 GEN*

Quote from daniel-cruz

Wrong. EXO started 3rd gen when they debuted in 2012...

It lasted 6 years...

Stray Kids started 4th gen.

Boy groups start a new generation earlier than girl groups. For example, 2nd gen ggs only started in 2007 and 3rd gen ggs only started in 2014

Quote from quark12395

.5 gens still the most idiotic thing I've ever heard of.

How? It’s the transition period wherein you can’t tell whether the group is 3rd gen or 4th gen and they’re kinda both

Not this year for sure. Competition is stiff right now with aespa and StayC. Plus I don’t see blinks transferring to the new gg anytime soon

It only makes sense. 2018-2019 groups are no longer rookies yet they barely made any noise. 3rd gen lasted 2014 - 2019, that’s 6 years which is enough time for a generation change, unlike what we’ve initially thought wherein 2018 was the start of 4th gen (which makes 3rd gen lasting only 4 years) Also during twice and gfriend debut years, they were already dominating and overthrowing top GGs. RV also solidified their position in just 2 years within rookie years. meanwhile, itzy loona everglow are still struggling to overthrow the top groups unlike aespa and stayc which is starting to surpass twice now. As expected SM always open up the new generation.

They’re releasing a new gg since itzy didn’t really do anything this gen so JYP tryna catch up with this new gg of theirs. I told y’all jyp would release another gg soon. 2019 ISN’T 4TH GEN, THEY’RE 3.5.

ON THE LIST OF NATIONAL HITS AKP NEEDS TO WAKE TF UP ESP @ripia

it suits aespa’s fantasy futuristic concept so well

certified BOP

LOONA FIRST O12 WIN OMG THEY WERE SO STABLE WITH THEIR ENCORE TOO

AESPA GEN Z ICONS

WJSN > Lovelyz > Laboum

SooYoung singing next level by aespa:

I kinda agree both songs were horrible

aespa only, might check out ygngg and hybengg first to see whether I’ll like them

OH MY GOD I KNEW AESPA WAS BIG IN CHINA BUT I DID NOT EXPECT THIS!! 100K ALBUM SALES IS EASY FOR AESPA I THINK

TBH IM NOT SURPRISED THE IMPACT THIS SONG HAS ON THE KPOP INDUSTRY
