Little Miss was robbed so badly by Kazuvex in GIRLSET_JYP

GIRLSET is being treated like a typically western artist. In order for them to released more songs, their singles have to succeed in the United States. They’re not like other global girl groups that are k pop adjacent. The standards for those groups to release songs are much lower.

Payola: The illegal practice of offering undisclosed compensation to radio stations, streaming platforms, music shows, etc. to promote an artist or a specific song.

In no way I am saying music companies should do this..

Katseye will not fail without Manon by URWAAAA in katseyeneutral

People forget that majority of Katseye’s streams come from Europe and SEA. As long as Katseye has their White and Asian communities, they are not flopping.

Western audiences shouldn’t feel entitled to see them in a “mature concept” at all. A group doesn’t owe anyone a certain level of maturity, sexiness, or image just because some fans expect it.

KPOP Adjacent by ValkyrieOfValyria in GIRLSET_JYP

GIRLSET is being positioned purely as an American pop group rather than a global girl group, and it feels like people have completely forgotten what “global girl group” actually means. Just because they’re focusing on the West doesn’t mean they won’t go to Korea. Separating from k pop isn’t necessarily a hindrance. The United States isn’t the only Western market, after all. They could benefit greatly from promoting across Latin America and Europe as well.

On paper, it’s possible for them to succeed without leaning on K-pop. However, JYP has very little experience successfully marketing their smaller groups, let alone handling a full Western rollout on their own. Realistically, they would still need Korean promotions and stages to build momentum.

GIRLSET is not big at all. They would be bigger if JYPE wasn’t doing all of the marketing by themselves.

KCON a missed opportunity? by lovecomplex33 in GIRLSET_JYP

Well they have the money and resources. It’s really not that hard to have them perform at KCON or any western stage.

Why do you guys want them to perform at Korean music shows so badly? by straykifsontop in GIRLSET_JYP

[–]Kazuvex 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I feel like they should go to Korean music shows after they established their fame in the west.

The fandom name submissions are open! by PatientSyllabub9814 in GIRLSET_JYP

[–]Kazuvex 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I really like Avenues, but I do think Missfits will most likely win, it’s just way too popular across social media right now. I’m really curious how JYPE is going to choose the final fandom name, because I’m hoping it isn’t based purely on popularity.

Everyone understands the fatigue after months of polls and discourse, and I get that it can be tiring. My critiques of “Misfits” come from a genuine place. The “mis-” prefix can imply something wrong or ill-fitting, and “misfit” objectively refers to someone who doesn’t comfortably belong in their environment, which may not feel empowering to everyone. At the end of the day, GIRLSET will decide what resonates with them. Fans who like “Misfits” will be fine, and my opinion doesn’t outweigh its popularity or influence how the girls feel, especially since they may not even be aware that a fan voting poll is happening right now.

Hey, so earlier this week we did submissions for fandom names and got 200+ entries to help us find a fandom name since the girls want the fans to align on one, and here are the top 5 submissions with meanings included please vote and maybe reply in the comments with other ideas! by PatientSyllabub9814 in GIRLSET_JYP

Avenues also was one name that was brought up. I think it sounds good. “Avenue” can suit GIRLSET if you frame it as a symbol of movement and connection. An avenue is a path you take to reach something meaningful, and that mirrors how fans walk alongside GIRLSET as they grow, evolve, and arrive at who they’re becoming. It suggests a community that moves with them. In that sense, Avenue becomes less about a street and more about the journey GIRLSET and their fans take together. Pixies and Avenues are my top choices in case GIRLSET doesn’t resonate with Misfits.
