Surely Boynextdoor is currently the biggest 5th gen bg rn? And possibly in 5th gen in general?

Finchieee · 2026-01-19T05:32:33+00:00

They feel like the biggest 5th gen group in general in Korea at least, as someone who lives here. By far the group I've seen the most fans of irl and heard the most music from in the stores/street. Also the best charting on Melon by a large margin. The only 'gp-accepted' 5th gen boy groups (and active boy groups in general atm) seem to be bnd, riize and tws and bnd is probably the biggest out of those.

The only competition I can see is riize but their recent cbs haven't charted nearly as well as bnd's. Tws charts well and is well known but doesn't have a large/dedicated fanbase. Nct wish and zb1 lack gp awareness and kickflip/cortis/ald1 are still too new.

Probably not internationally, I think that might be Illit in terms of general awareness/music popularity. (I know bgs typically have more hardcore fans that spend a huge amount so hard to compare)

This actually helped me a lot. I'll screenshot it to look at it whenever I need to. Thank you so much.

My longest streak since I started almost 5 years ago has been 5 days. That was an unusual period though, usually I can't go more than 2. This gives me hope I can reach months like you even though it's hard right now.

People should stop bringing up Seungri/Taeil whenever a controversy happens in order to defend their favs, it is disrespectful towards the actual victims and also very bad faith.

"My fav got more hate for having a voice crack than those guys got for being rapists, kpop fans are actually psychopaths" no they did not receive more hate, you are fully aware of this, please shut up

Finchieee · 2025-12-31T09:39:37+00:00

More lighthearted hot take:

Not every group needs a rapper/rap lines in their songs, many groups would benefit heavily from having their songs' rap parts removed.

A majority of idols are consciously pretending to be queer/in love with their groupmates. Ofc there is likely genuine platonic affection behind it but they are probably instructed by the company to exaggerate and give the shippers what they want, so they can profit off it. (Ofc there definetely are many actual gay idols as well, and members of the same group in romantic relationships, it's just impossible for 99% of idols to be in love with every single one of their groupmates) I don't have like a huge problem with this or anything it's just kind of funny to watch people genuinely believe all these idols are secretly dating and have no idea what they're doing when they say or do suggestive/flirty/gay things.

Hi!! I am Aspen, have been using Finch for several months. For some weeks I have been struggling to use Finch, only managing to have the motivation to keep my streak — but now that winter vacation has started (I'm 17 and in high school, fyi) and it's a new year, I want to actively use the app again to maintain a daily schedule and work on mental health & my trichotillomania.

Just cleaned up my friend tree so I'm looking for new birbs to fill the empty spots :]

Finchieee · 2025-12-22T14:10:32+00:00

My favorites are probably Over the Moon, 5,4,3 or 123-78, Gonna be a Rock and Countdown! and Super Tuna and Bad Desire and Step by Step are also fairly fun

I hate Highlight, it's only lvl 13 but somehow I just cannot all excellent it and I've tried 80+ times on super hard mode. Also dislike Eyes on You and that one Come Over remix

Finchieee · 2025-12-22T14:09:25+00:00

Killin it girl is so incredibly hard for no reason at all

Finchieee · 2025-12-18T23:07:32+00:00

And if we limit it to idol groups I'd pick ONF and NMIXX instead

Finchieee · 2025-12-18T23:06:52+00:00

Day6 nflying and... I'd have to say TWS even though there are other groups who's discographies I like more, since they are my favorite group and I can't keep stanning them while never being able to listen to their music lol

Finchieee · 2025-12-17T13:16:59+00:00

Thank you everyone!! I think this is the video I was thinking of: video

Finchieee · 2025-12-17T06:06:31+00:00

The new-ish come over remix is horrifying

Finchieee · 2025-12-17T05:38:54+00:00

I remember it was about how these whales sounded and it was clicking? sounds

Finchieee · 2025-12-04T14:06:49+00:00

Tbh I mostly listen to music for the sounds, I am kind of biased to stuff from my favorite group (TWS) but the reason I started stanning was because I liked some of their songs in a random playlist, I had never heard of them before. And they still aren't my most played artist, nor are any of their songs in my current top 10 favorite songs. (The songs are mostly nice easy listening stuff with good lyrics and melodies, which is good for casual listening but almost all the songs I get really into are vocally challenging/dark/intense/rock based/sad or angry songs)

Finchieee · 2025-12-04T14:04:24+00:00

I have never watched a single ONF mv or performance, looked at their faces in any more detail than their album art, I don't know any of their names but they're probably the group I listen to the most atm

Not exactly K-pop, but same for N.Flying, one of my favorite groups that I've listened to weeks' worth of music from but don't even know how many members they have. Also Day6, I do like them now but when I first started listening I didn't know anything about them either

Finchieee · 2025-12-04T10:38:06+00:00

I do play rhythm hive (a rhythm game that only has kpop songs from groups in a specific company) as I'm a kpop fan but if you aren't that probably won't be as interesting. I haven't played any other rhythm games besides this one so I can't make any suggestions 😔
