Sure, because they bought way too many ENHYPEN albums and overdid it.

"I also went to check out IVE, but when I saw the devastation of people who couldn't get into the Pacific Stage spilling out onto the grounds of the Messe, I immediately retreated #サマソニ"

But the Pacific Stage in Tokyo is much too small for IVE. They should have performed on the Marine Stage there. That was poorly planned.

Maybe some idols will have a new dream from now on, namely to be headliners like Stray Kids.

I hope and am sure that Kotoko will recover quickly and then need a break for a while.
UNIS are also in high demand and travel a lot and seven of the girls are between thirteen and sixteen years old.
But that has happened to me too and it can happen to anyone.
Short-term lack of oxygen supply to the brain. Not drinking enough water, poor circulation, perhaps hypoglycemia, etc.
In general, it looks much worse than it is.
After a few minutes, it feels better again, then drink a glass of apple juice or cola, but don't get up straight away.

I don't understand the topic, since boy groups have much higher sales figures?
Or do women in Korea have much more money, so that many more boy group albums are bought and men have much less money, so that many fewer girl groups are bought.
Or is Korea a patriarchy and women are worth less there, so that women are discriminated against there and life is much harder for women, especially in K-Pop, and girl groups are therefore ignored by part of the male-dominated Korean population?
Perhaps many are afraid of being seen buying a girl group album and prefer to stream it secretly, so that girl groups have quite high streaming figures.

They are the best of the second generation and better than the third generation.
For me the best are Stray Kids and ATEEZ are very close.

Aespa, Itzy and Twice are on tour, so I get that they were not there.
BP members are doing their thing.
BabyMoster, YG is weird with these things, so they were not there.
So groups that I would suspect are in a higher tear than Wooah, but were not there (as far as I know).
Kep1er (they are on deserved vacation)
Kara*
* Apink, Kara and EXID don't really go to these things anymore I guess.
Gourps that I would say are at similar level as Wooah, but were not invited.
TripleS
Billlie (Tour in Europe)
Purple Kiss (concert in Japan)
It is nice for Wooah to have been invited, there is always going to be a least famous group in all gatherings, if Wooah was not there, then the lowest ranked would have been StayC or Kiss of Life.
Dreamcatcher are on the same level as groups like Fromis_9 and Kep1er. But they have only now made their comeback, which is probably not appropriate for a possible invitation to SBS Gayo Daejeon.
Before Corona 2020, I mainly listened to rock, especially J-Rock and Metal, and Dreamcatcher are very well known and popular in these circles. So they were the first K-Pop group I got to know in 2018.
It was through them that I got to know K-Pop later in 2020 because of the Corona restrictions.
Of the second generation girl groups, Apink have been active since their debut and have released at least one album every year. But now they are taking things a little more calmly as a group, but still have their live performances together here and there.

Just because we don't know WOOAH doesn't mean they don't belong there.
They've been established in Korea for a long time. With Blush they've been better represented in the streaming charts than ever before, as has Pom Pom Pom (not quite as strong as with Blush). They've long since surpassed comparable groups like Rocket Punch, Lightsum and Cherry Bullet, and this year they've also surpassed Purple Kiss, H1-KEY and Weeekly. WOOAH have had some interesting show appearances recently and Nana (in the middle with the blonde hair) is one of the strongest all-rounders in Korea.
Danger is one of my favorite K-Pop songs of all time.

I really like Chick Chick Boom! BOP!
-
11 months after their debut, LIMELIGHT have sold over 100 thousand albums. But they are relatively unknown outside of Korea.
-
I'm really happy for STAYC and it's their 20th show win.
At first, a lot of people didn't like Cheeky Icy Thang that much and it wasn't a hit for me either. But after listening to it three or four times, the song comes across really well and the dance performance is great.

I listen to K-Pop almost every day, although I always listen to different songs, but some more often. I listened to YOUNG POSSE - XXL very often for a long time, which is rather unusual. Recently I've also listened to Aespa - Supernova and ATEEZ - Work a lot. In the last few days I've listened to a lot of Sticky by KISS OF LIFE and today I've listened to Dreamcatcher - Justice a few times. I also like listening to older songs like WOOAH - Danger, Stray Kids - Double Knot and STAYC - Poppy.
I also really like watching dance performance videos, Xikers - Do Or Die and YOUNG POSSE - OTB are very strong.

Personally, I only know the terms music fan or K-Pop fan, but I can't do anything with the term stan.
It seems to me that stans are like the religious fanatics within the K-Pop community.

It's because the mainstream media ignores K-Pop a lot.
At least here in Germany. There's a fear that K-Pop will get too much market share and push out other music, especially the music that's produced by the band itself, like the DSDS productions that dumb down the people or the low-quality German rap that hasn't developed at all for 20 years.
BTS and BP have had their rise in popularity and success. And they want to prevent many other K-pop groups and stars from achieving the same.
