Omg they said she's 169cm Karina is only 167cm, she's actually taller than Karina!! OMG this could actually be Helen!!! This might be legit!!!
Helen is rumoured to be another main dancer, she's the tallest of all the members but I just remembered, Helen is said to be the youngest, isn't sure born 2003, so she wouldn't be 19?
Yeah the height and age are all signs that point to Helen which really makes me think this might be her. She could be 19 Korean age which I’m pretty sure the original poster is referring to since Koreans don’t use international age. It can’t just be coincidental right? On top of the fact that picture straight up looks like her with photoshop and makeup lol
yeah but in this case it's not a teaser picture but more a pre debut picture and they are usually not as photoshop than this one
but in the same time the lighting on the picture remind me the same lighting that there was in the screen test picture who leaked from Giselle
but if it was helen they would say it, they wouldn't call her Ara
considering that Helen is a very public trainee
True but then we all thought Aeri would keep her name because it sounds cool as fuck until SM dropped the name Giselle lmao. At this point I just need Aespa to comeback because all these rumors are getting crazy and we need to know the truth lol
it does look like Helen with more makeup, lenses and more photoshoped
I wonder if people saying that this "Ara" will debut with Yuni is also true or another fake rumor too
Yeah the photoshop part makes me even more suspicious that it’s Helen because those features are almost identical to Helens face. Remember Aespa member debut pictures were all heavily photoshopped to where they almost look like AI themselves. Like this one of Karina and Winter
Honestly I think NCT and Seventeen are both pretty equal in terms of popularity. They both sell around the same amount of albums though it will be interesting to see how NCT Dream performs this next comeback considering it’s a full album and it’s the original OT7 lineup so the hype is once again really massive (similar to NCT 2020 hype).
I still think EXO is #2 because Baekhyun’s and D.O’s popularity alone >>>>> anyone from NCT and Seventeen. But to the people downplaying NCT, I wouldn’t be so sure about it. They had an explosive 2020 and doubled/tripled their sales and fandom growth plus they’ve been consecutively ranking #2 firmly behind BTS on brand reputation rankings for the last few months now. It’s honestly a toss up between NCT and Seventeen at this point. But I have a feeling once EXO drops that album they’ve been teasing this discussion will be over lol.
Their pre-order numbers on Ktown4U already hit 220K+ in just a few days since links were dropped. This is just 1 retailer and SM has yet to release any proper teasers so the numbers they’re pulling just based on comeback news alone is kinda insane no?
There are still 3 weeks left and the current total doesn’t include any of their C-Bar orders. It’s their first ever full album so the hype seems really big this time. I honestly think they’ll be able to pull off 1M+ on Hanteo. Yes or no? Discuss.

I love how anytime Aespa is mentioned it always turns into a hit thread. The relevancy, can’t wait for their comeback because I know y’all on allkpop will be tuning in despite them not being “interesting”
Wow and this is just an OST that was barely promoted!? I really feel like Joy is the hidden ace in Red Velvet when it comes to the public. Mark my words but I have a feeling her solo debut will be popular
I love TXT so that would make me form an alliance with Army's but my fav girl group is SNSD and my ult queen IU is close friends with many SM artists. So I guess I'm with the SM stans. Sorry Army
Ummm so what about Gidle? Cube already focusing on the new GG...like its literally been a month since soojins scandal damn... I just hope their new GG doesn’t get a ton of hate at debut
After Soojins scandal does Gidle even have a career anymore? Their reputation in Korea has tanked resulting in Hwaa dropping out of Melon top 100 faster than any of their previous releases. I’d worry about your favs than other 4th Gen GG’s because I can assure you they’re doing just fine.
As much as I want to believe this is true, things can and will change all the time. Though this should give us a general view on when to expect comebacks.
