What Attracts You To A Group? (1 Viewer)

[Lovely_Cornchips]

@Yili's thread inspired this but what ultimately attracts you to a group?

For me I've had it be where a song will peak my interest
Then a specific member in the MV & lives
Then I'll realize one of them has killer vocals and fawn over it.
Or I'll fall in love with a personality.​

Charisma for me, if the group really stands out in a performance (ex: Juyeon from the Boyz and the Boyz in general)
And of course a very iconic personality if I'm watching variety (Jackson from GOT7 is an easy one), only to find out that all of the personalities are iconic

GOT7 is definitely...special lol

MVs, sound, aesthetic

 

[Yukibana]

I meant concept and global image

 

[Tickita]

Choreography, first. Any stories of hardships. Also, personalities on variety or their own YT page.

What aesthetic appeals most to you though?

 

[brekker]

first, music, but I´m big on aesthetic too, so I like high-quality videos too, but then I look at the members´ personalities as well. It is important to me that when I like something I like it whole-heartedly, then I can support their music as well.
that doesn´t mean that I am not able to draw a line between their professional and personal life. you do you. but I need to see that they are also an interesting personality as I enjoy watching interviews and varieties, so yeah.

but it is not purely black and white. I adore watching Seventeen´s varieties because they are really funny, but I wouldn´t call myself a Carat as I don´t know that many of their songs, or don´t like them that much. they are surprisingly big softies :), especially their older work, but they are getting better. I love Left and Right and Home Run.

The most important thing for me is that I love the music but in order to stan a group I must also like the members' personalities.

Is that how TVXQ appealed to you? I know Jaejoong and Yunho had some hardships.

Dark ones.

I'm the same way-I like SVT's members but their music doesn't appeal to me but I have a few songs by them I like so it's....rough?

 

[eclipsoul]

good music is all i need in a group. i don't care much for personalities (unless they're exceptionally bad lmao) because what idols show on camera might be different than what they're really like and i don't watch things like variety shows anyway.

 

[Angel1]

Music above all
Personalities is second
and then concepts ig

yeah, nothing bad about staying curious. they have my attention, but I would lie if I said I´m their big fan. yet again, their newer music is more to my taste, so we´ll see the path they´ll choose. but they are honestly lovely people and I think they have one of the best friendships in the industry.

Their friendship is the only reason Pledis hasn't destroyed them like all their other groups so I would agree.

You like the blunt funny types huh?

 

[RandAlThor]

Music first to get my attention.
Skill with said music.
lives pretty much never mv's since SNSD sucked me in with RDR Oh Gee
its kinda a package when i see it i know it. something like this that breaks thru the clutter.

maybe once i saw a group first on Weekly idol i honestly cant remember where i saw Lovelyz first. Either WI or the collab with Rv got 7 and winner.

Then personality in say variety.
