So when will 4th gen break out? (1 Viewer)

[star_lord]

I don’t think I will ever get the people who label G-idle, Loona & groups that debuted in 2017-18 as 4th gen?? Like that’s literal bs.
So far, there hasn’t been any 4th gen group that has dominated so far. When do you think will it happen? Also Aespa will be the only 4th generation group I’ll like honestly, the others are too bland ​

honestly with aespa just debuting, and phngg, ygngg, ssngg all supposedly debuting next year, roty looks to be a bloodbath
I think ygngg could make it, depends on reception w blinks tbh
I don't really follow ssngg so I can't say much there
hopefully mhj regains some of her former prowess, but until then, I don't have super high hopes for pgngg, though the ex trainees are all gorgeous
sm groups tend to all do better over time, so I'm excited to see how far aespa will go

the big players for the gg side of 4th gen haven't all come out yet, so I'm reserving my judgement for later

Ygngg will do well, if only yg steps up. I’m 101% sure Blinks will not vibe with the new group but I don’t mind actually.

if aespa didn't have their 234093849 fake scandals (I had to argue w someone over them finding ning calling renjun isn't problematic lmao), I would say ygngg could've had it much much tougher with hate from other fandoms
I think their reception will all depend on how many predebut scandals they can dodge tbh

dont worry once the lineup for yours is announced forth gen will be saved with of course stayc and æspa by their side

I personally think groups that debuted in 2016-2019 are gen 3.5 because a new gen starts once the top groups of the current gen have disbanded.

Yeah same here (maybe 2017-2019), those 3 years were really awkward to debut in since it would feel really weird (for me) to put those groups in the same gen as for example EXO, BTS, RV, Twice etc.

The fact that we're even talking about a 4th gen makes me feel so old smh I got into kpop back when SNSD released 'Lion Heart' and BTS stood for 'Behind The Scenes' as far as America was concerned

IZ*ONE did not outsell most boy groups out there to not be considered break out
