Ah classic cover, since wer at it

Quote from anne_jay

uggh lips a perfect song, it was my ringtone for like 2 years

2nd gen was definitely the era where sales dip in Kpop but the fact that SNSD actually hold the best selling album by a 2nd gen act, them winning a Disk Daesang and The Boys was the best selling album of the year was almost dreamlike as we have yet to see another girl group that has the same potential as the best selling boy group of their gen.

And that’s on NGG exactly.

Don't care about your thread and your bait.

But I want more people to listen to this gem (and yes their K version is better):

Lips supremacy

Quote from Tic_tac_toe

SM could have actually debuted them a lot sooner in Japan. Instead of 4 years later. A mistake they did with EXO as well who had a studio album six years after debut.

SNSD could have had more albums do as well then before 2nd gen dwindled.

All good they ran away with their rare RIAJ million certification

Quote from Tic_tac_toe

oh yeah that was a great time for kpop in japan because of them . I don't think snsd themselves ever re created that success ever again.

2011 was the peak for 2nd generation. And Snsd happened to be on top of that throne that year both inside/outside of Korea

Quote from Afriyieau1

I like how BTS climbed the list. They have worked so hard

They’re insane for achieving all that as a non big 3 idol group

Quote from citron-icy

Tvxq are literally called "Gods of Kpop" they saved the kpop industry, if SNSD exist is thanks to TVXQ.

Tvxq started in 2003, your gallup start in 2009.

Naur it’s true, BoA/DBSK opened the gates to the Japanese market marking the first Hallyu wave and Kpop would’ve never survived financially knowing that Kpop companies heavily relied on those ¥¥¥. SM was on the verge of bankruptcy in the early 00’s, courtesy to BoA/DBSK’s Japanese advancement, the company is still up and running till this moment. If SeoTaiji&Boys were the flagship artist for Kpop and H.O.T shaped the idol group model, then BoA/DBSK were the most crucial figures for making it all last financially and responsible for expanding Kpop market. That Nissan stadium concert they held is still shocking.

While DBSK focused more on music, SNSD did a little bit of everything from Radio hosting, TV appearances, 9 members booked and busy in all different fields etc ig that’s why Korea favored them more.

This Korean survey proves they were the nations favorite. Even North Korea couldn’t resist and made their own ver of SNSD.

Records are meant to be broken

Quote from Pinky_Peachy

And then you say it like that without naming names ! And the thread becomes wholesome

Not everybody knows this rare achievement, it’s well known that BGs > GG’s album sales, so the discussion starts, actually somebody already made a thread about not knowing this fact. Feel flattered those 3 were the top bg’s instead💀

Quote from Pinky_Peachy

Why mention the boy groups by name to boost up GG? They don't need it, their results speak for themselves

Point is Girls Generation is the only female group to outsell boy groups’ album. A simple trivia question.

Became the only 2nd generation idol group to sell over 900,000 copies for a single album? (Or even repackage included)

Will we ever witness another Female group dominate boy groups’ album sales?

Quote from MassiveKpopFan

And straight pop, All Night and Happy were both a serve.

A serve along with classic rnb sisters Bitch I miss you and Pussie 10 ehsactly

Crush of 3rd Gen*

Because both served bangers, vocals, and RnB flavors

Winter and NN sounded right on pitch as the backing track. They were even better than I expected and I’m blown away ONCE AGAIN 2021’s rookie group of the year y’all.

Quote from itiswhatitisss

And IDK why KPOP fans act like idols can't sing like they do in the studio version.

It may be the case for some but I don't think that's the case for Aespa. It's not like the studio version vocals and the high notes come out of nowhere. Let's talk about that.

OP's obsession with Aespa is very weird.

The next excuse is that studio tricks did the job because aespa’s voices are too good to be real. People setting a rookie in such a high standard shows they fear their potential like it hasn’t been a year chill.

Forever/their vocals is what pulled me to them. So lemme defend their vocals since y’all stay ignorant about these kids voices and like how dare you?!

Is she even the most popular in her group genuine question, assumed it was seeun/J

They sung live the entire fansign event the other day. Vocals is something you could never use against aespa.
