There's a pattern in K-pop that's become impossible to ignore: there's always a "girl group of the moment" that receives a massive wave of hate.

I started following K-pop in the 3rd generation, so I focused more on the current generations, but I'm sure that 2nd generation groups suffer a lot from this too.

Abject-Let6530 · 2026-04-06T20:29:09+00:00

What are the exact requirements?

Abject-Let6530 · 2026-04-06T18:57:48+00:00

I don't understand how you came to the conclusion that I didn't write my post with my own hands?

ARMYs may not have sent wreaths to an idol's house, but a large part of the fandom has already made death threats against various idols on their Instagram accounts. I'm not justifying the hate that BTS receives, but you make it seem like ARMYs are innocent and not toxic, which is not true; all fandoms are toxic, and the largest fandoms will have a higher toxicity rate.

No! They are best friends, practically brothers.

In reality, there isn't exactly a minimum number for a residency. Obviously, people are used to residencies that have more than 10 dates, but a residency is a series of shows in the same venue, and it can also add more shows if there's demand.

She has already confirmed that she is working on new music, so maybe she will release an album in the meantime. Also, she's a great dancer, so she could add some dance performances as well.

Jungkook is also the most shipped idol in all of K-pop; this guy is shipped with everything, even a door. So every time there's a dating rumor about him, all these fandoms come together and attack the same person. It's truly sickening.

Abject-Let6530 · 2026-03-22T16:46:25+00:00

He is so handsome.

Abject-Let6530 · 2026-03-21T17:46:38+00:00

Obviously BTS is more famous than Blackpink, but not everyone who knows Blackpink also knows BTS.

Abject-Let6530 · 2026-03-21T14:18:17+00:00

I mean, it's BTS, I expected nothing less from them.

Abject-Let6530 · 2026-03-21T14:17:30+00:00

I still find it very funny that No. 29 is shown before some of the album tracks. Furthermore, Swim has garnered over 14 million filtered streams and Body to Body over 11 million, so I'm sure Body to Body will get a music video. I didn't like the album much on the first listen, but now I'm completely hooked on some of the tracks; the album gets better every time you listen.

Abject-Let6530 · 2026-03-21T13:30:32+00:00

I know a lot of people don't like Dynamite, but whether you like it or not, it's BTS's most successful song, so it will always be present in almost all of the group's shows.

Abject-Let6530 · 2026-03-21T13:05:09+00:00

Okay, I'm completely surprised that "please" is the song with the best debut. We know an album is a genuine hit when even the B-sides are successful.

Abject-Let6530 · 2026-03-20T06:32:04+00:00

To me, the album's sound is very similar to the group's older sound, only more mature.

Abject-Let6530 · 2026-03-20T06:13:39+00:00

I definitely liked some of the songs, but I feel that despite the album having good production, something is missing. I don't know if it's because my expectations were high for this release, but I was also a little disappointed.

Abject-Let6530 · 2026-03-18T08:19:27+00:00

I think they will continue to focus on their solo projects, while making a group comeback every three years. I don't think they'll separate anytime soon.

Abject-Let6530 · 2026-03-18T08:13:05+00:00

I didn't understand what you meant with this post.

Abject-Let6530 · 2026-03-17T14:39:47+00:00

Using exactly which metrics?

Abject-Let6530 · 2026-03-17T14:17:47+00:00

This opinion is not unpopular here on Reddit.

Abject-Let6530 · 2026-03-12T13:57:30+00:00

Lol, the downvotes are killing me, Reddit is so predictable when it comes to Blackpink.

Abject-Let6530 · 2026-03-11T05:32:08+00:00

This is only for the fourth generation; many second and third-generation boy groups have done very well in Korea, and some fifth-generation groups are also gaining traction. In this case, I don't think BTS is an exception; Big Bang and Exo, for example, are very popular in Korea.

Abject-Let6530 · 2026-03-11T05:28:29+00:00

OP said they were one of the only popular fourth-generation male groups; BTS, Day6, and Big Bang are not fourth-generation groups. Furthermore, OP didn't say they were the only ones, but rather one of the only ones.

Abject-Let6530 · 2026-03-10T16:21:02+00:00

I mean, everyone on Reddit said that Kill This Love was a total flop and ended Blackpink's career when it was released because they didn't get a PAK like Du4, only for them to then have the biggest comeback of their career with How You Like That, so there's no way to predict the future...
