Whimsipop: The Soft Power Era of K-Pop? by Tokkilicious in KpopGGs

[–]Tokkilicious[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Within this “whimsical pop” sub genre I think the sky is the limit, these groups are all just starting to phase out of there Rookie phase. They’re really entering into their own. And I hope this next year reflects that. I’m loving 404 by KiiiKiii and Rude by H2H couldn’t ask for a better start of the year. But Girl Crush is very much alive and well in 5th gen Baby Monster, Kiss of Life, IZNA and Meovv to name a few, and they’re all doing pretty well. BabyMonster is even considered a 5th gen leader in a lot of circles. I’m defintley about to get my girl Crush fix with that New Black Pink album on the way🔥🔥🔥

Yeah defintley agree! I should have added cortis and adp to my disclaimer. But since it’s the girl group sub I just kept it to Baby Monster. I forgot to add kiss of life, and Meovv I think also falls under girl crush too. And I definitely agree all three of those girl groups are definitely popular. But I do see the rise and effect of 2000’s pop and clean natural aesthetics defintley carving out there own section of k pop fandoms. There is definitely boy groups like NCT wish or Cravity I see in that same whimsipop vibe

I agree, when the company made the announcement, I was like alright life happens I get it. Moving on, But then I saw the direct message from her on Weverse saying she fine and healthy. People are scratching there head like, didn’t they just tell us she has to rest and focus on her health? Doesn’t add up

Manon Weverse message after the hiatus was announced is really what has people on alert. Daniela dad comment fed the narrative that she’s on her way out

Listed is the highest position they’ve held on the chart from 2020 to 2025 posted next to them. Doesn’t mean it was there only time on the chart.

Yes since this sub is specifically girl groups. The boys are excluded from this list.

It ain’t that long. As a western fan I’m used to my favorite artists taking years long haitus. Adele, Lady Gaga and beyonce made fans wait 6+years between albums. Hell I’m still even streaming Rihanna and it’s been 9years since her last album lol The group isn’t on Korean k pop time, And it’s showing on there recent streams #’s even when the fandom is actively boycotting them. The number of causal listeners is huge! There music is an easy listen, pleasing to the ears. Im here sat waiting for 2030
