They just achieved their 9th win for Rich Man, making it their most wins for any song (surpassing their hit Supernova). All this while barely promoting the song in Korea. It's literally top 10 on Melon, Dirty Work is Top 15, Whiplash is Top 20 and Supernova is Top 50. Karina's Hot is Top 80. They also were the highest first week sales for any female group in 2025 with over 1 million copies sold in the first week. They're the third highest in total sales for a girl group in 2025, only behind IVE's two releases this year. You can hate the creative direction, but if this is what is considered "flopping" then what's the implications for other girl groups? Except for IVE and Blackpink, most of them struggled to chart high or at all in Korea. Are they considered flops? Of course not! I understand they're not everyone's cup of tea, but don't people understand attempting to label Aespa flops inversely means other groups are even worse off? Anyway, as a MY on TikTok aptly put it, "MY flop and your flop are not the same". submitted by /u/CrazyGailz [link] [comments]

Mentoring/judging/guesting on a show doesn't count! Feel free to include shows that aren't necessarily kpop (i.e. rap shows, non-korean shows, etc) as long as it's somewhat adjacent. Afaik Bae173 have been on 6-7 survival shows: Boys24, The Unit, Under Nineteen (if you count former members), Produce X 101, Peak Time, Project 7, Starlight Boys submitted by /u/AAALLY- [link] [comments]

How many groups are you guys a fan of where you can differentiate all their voices? (By fan in this sense I’d just say keep up with releases, watch some performances, etc) I’d say I listen to 80+ different groups on a monthly basis, am a fan of around 30 of them, but can only differentiate all members’ voices of like 5 of them. The rest, I can recognise some members, and struggle with the others. Those 5 groups are also ones that I got into during lockdown, so watching a lot of performances and colour coded videos helped me to differentiate their voices. submitted by /u/NoMembership2503 [link] [comments]

K-pop stans have to stop using dead idols as ragebait. This is so wrong and very disgusting. Like, did all you people learn nothing? These idols had a family who probably encouraged their child to chase their dreams, or maybe even the opposite so they can protect their child. But now they wish they didn't let their child off because now they are no longer there. And the fact you all are using their deaths as ragebait should be a crime. You should be charged some way. Fight me in the comment section if you disagree. submitted by /u/No_Prior_3740 [link] [comments]
