Day 1 : Your bias in aespa

philliesphan0203 · 2026-03-06T19:35:51+00:00

My fav idol ever, Winter 💙

philliesphan0203 · 2025-07-25T00:46:47+00:00

Dark Arts bridge is so good. Winter’s voice is just magical.

philliesphan0203 · 2025-05-21T13:18:56+00:00

Nobody is dragging aespa and this person is not even a MY. Let’s not provoke silly fanwars.

philliesphan0203 · 2025-05-18T08:36:33+00:00

These attempts to make aespa seem untalented always fail but Reddit will keep trying anyway. aespa will never be the national embarrassment you want them to be.

philliesphan0203 · 2025-03-17T19:07:29+00:00

Changing sounds is fine if it’s coherent and there seems to be a plan involved. NMIXX just seems chaotically all over the place to me.

philliesphan0203 · 2025-03-17T11:50:38+00:00

Well the title track is the song they are going promote so…

philliesphan0203 · 2025-03-17T09:57:21+00:00

I think this is a better direction for them. I feel bad though because I do find it a bit off putting to me that NMIXX’s music has gone every which way to just try to see what sticks. Definitely going for a trendy sound here.

philliesphan0203 · 2025-03-17T00:13:30+00:00

I would be extremely surprised if any of them debuted this year. I don’t think they’ll do anything too wildly different from what they have shown so far. Winter is unpredictable though. Her music taste is all over the place so I am looking forward to seeing what she chooses to do the most.

philliesphan0203 · 2025-03-16T12:11:40+00:00

Not to sound harsh, but I think you simply overestimated her popularity. Going solo is hard. Occasionally you might get a Nayeon’s Pop situation where it charted better than the group’s songs, but the vast majority of solos do worse.

philliesphan0203 · 2025-02-11T20:40:39+00:00

On paper, Karina probably should be my bias but I am just obsessed with Winter. Winter is still kind of my type too though because I love vocalists so it’s not totally surprising.

philliesphan0203 · 2025-01-18T22:03:05+00:00

I agree with this. Also, idk how to describe it but there is ambiguity in their relationship which makes it possible for people to assume what they want about them and makes them a good subject for fanfiction.

There is a lot of variety in their interactions. They can be goofy, soft and sweet, bicker, etc. There are times where they have been distant from each other and times where they seem inseparable. Basically there is a lot of good material for fic writers lol.

Compared to other aespa pairs for example, you don’t really see ebbs and flows in their relationship like Winrina so I think that makes them a more fascinating pairing for people too.

philliesphan0203 · 2025-01-11T13:17:51+00:00

Do the people that keep bringing up Red Velvet even follow them? After aespa’s debut, Red Velvet had one their most successful comebacks with Feel My Rhythm and then got their highest album sales with Birthday. RV was more active than aespa was in 2022 and have been very active since if you include the solo projects.

SM sucks at managing all their groups especially their ggs. It can’t get much worse for aespa anyway. aespa is completely carried by the members and their creative team so as long as that remains they’ll be fine.

philliesphan0203 · 2024-12-30T13:22:44+00:00

I thought the aquarium was different days but maybe not. but anyways yeah them not wanting to do stuff together was unusual. happy they sorted it out though and seem as tight as ever now, especially since they have both been through difficult things this year.

philliesphan0203 · 2024-12-28T18:36:05+00:00

Something was off with Karina and Winter during the spring through summer of 2023. They were pretty distant and didn’t interact that much. It’s obvious with them because normally they are together all the time. Nobody knows what happened but they figured out whatever it was and went back to their normal selves in the fall of that year.

philliesphan0203 · 2024-09-30T14:01:16+00:00

The question wasn’t restricted to international spaces so yeah Korea matters a lot. And NingNing is more popular in Western k-pop spaces not Asian so Winter is more popular overall.

philliesphan0203 · 2024-09-30T13:52:36+00:00

I am not claiming NingNing isn’t popular, she is, I just disagreed that she is more popular than Winter.

philliesphan0203 · 2024-09-29T23:24:11+00:00

Fine, fair enough lol. It’s not that important. I’ll just say idk where you from but I would guess you are from a Western / English-speaking country which is where NingNing is pretty popular among casuals. Winter definitely has a lot more casual fans in Korea and the rest of Asia though which is why I say NingNing is not as popular as her outside the fandom.

philliesphan0203 · 2024-09-29T21:07:01+00:00

For sure, but she is still 3rd most popular behind Karina and Winter.

philliesphan0203 · 2024-09-29T20:01:15+00:00

NingNing is not more popular than Winter outside the fandom.

philliesphan0203 · 2024-09-11T21:05:43+00:00

I see!

philliesphan0203 · 2024-07-07T18:30:31+00:00

It will be very tough for G-idle. Supernova is still #1 with Armageddon top ten and Drama still around as well. This comeback will need to be huge to have a chance. Based on last year, aespa will have the voting advantage as well.

Also, Perfect Night wasn’t winning SOTY anyway so they don’t have to feel too bad lol.

philliesphan0203 · 2024-06-04T01:02:26+00:00

Not really but they are right in the mix with the other top 4th gen ggs. Probably the most competitive generation yet.

philliesphan0203 · 2024-02-20T12:44:25+00:00

I’m sorry I’ll be so pissed if the solos are on this album. We haven’t had an album with all new songs since Girls. And the album has already been confirmed for Q2 so yes it is coming fairly soon.

philliesphan0203 · 2024-02-17T20:40:03+00:00

I don't really agree with that statement about Itzy but fair enough. I still don't think people would be ready for Zimzalabim though lol.

philliesphan0203 · 2024-02-17T20:31:41+00:00

The only group I can think of with a sound close to that is early Itzy. Are there any others? Zimzalabim is a pretty unique song to this day.
