2017 starts off to another girl group rush with new debuts and comebacks



Article: 2017 starts off to another girl group rush

Source: TV Report via Naver

1. [+208, -5] For how much name value AOA has, their digital rank has been lost in Andromeda..... not even comparable to Cosmic Girls or April anymore because I don't even see them on the Melon charts. What happened? Did AOA's fandom just die out?

2. [+130, -10] A battle of the minor groups, basically...

3. [+191, -31] Twice (nation's girl group, energetic, cute) Girlfriend (innocent) IOI (nation's producer) Red Velvet (quirky?) Black Pink (hip hop) Mamamoo (talent)... all of the current girl groups have different charms and styles with set fandoms so there really isn't any more room for other groups or fandoms

4. [+106, -10] Every new debut recently has been flop after flop...

5. [+120, -27] AOA, Cosmic Girls, and April all flopped ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

6. [+52, -5] Out of all those groups, AOA had the most media play and their one song already fell off the charts~

7. [+51, -7] At the top are Twice, Girlfriend, IOI, Black Pink, Mamamoo, and Red Velvet. There's no more room left at the top for any more girl groups and it's basically going to be a fight between the bottom feeders.

8. [+29, -0] A Pink's 'Cause You're My Star' and AOA's 'Excuse Me' both flopped...

9. [+16, -1] So many debuts and comebacks in January... to make matters worse, all of the debuts and comebacks so far have been flops. The bigger issue is that even if any of these groups do manage to make it, it'll never be on the level of Twice, Girlfriend, Mamamoo, Red Velvet, or Black Pink ㅋㅋ

10. [+13, -0] 32 girl groups debuted in 2014, 37 teams in 2015, 29 teams in 2016... 98 teams in the past 3 years... how many are going to debut and flop in 2017 now?

11. [+23, -4] Korea is just an empire of idols now

12. [+12, -2] Out of the recent comebacks, April has the most potential. Their song is pretty good, the rest are flops.

Is Girl's Day the only target? + poor styling

Pann : Why are you only criticizing Girl's Day when other female idols did the same thing 1. [+205, -21] Idiot, do you think this and those are the same? At least they're wearing underpants. I asked if Girl's Day was wearing underwear and do you know what the fans said? They said they were wearing thongs ㅋㅋㅋㅋ Thongs and underpants, which ones are worse? And Yoona's exposure was only done once, why bash her? Also, Hayoung wore jean shorts but still wore underpants. AOA also wears underpants. Do you not see how you can see the stage through Yura's shorts? How baggy are they that we can see through them? And they still didn't wear underpants, isn't it obvious? They could've told their CEO that they didn't want to do it. They said they're close to their CEO. They also joke around a lot, yet they can't say they don't like the concept? There were Panns of the CEO taking care of Minah but why is he making them do this? Girl's Day is still do...

[MV Review] Infinite - "The Eye"

Infinite is back and as consistent as ever! Infinite is one of k-pop's most consistent boy groups, and I mean that in a good way. Since debut they've had a signature sound, and have kept to it without getting boring. Even their worst song, awful "Man In Love", still had a very Infinite sound to it. "The Eye" doesn't do much to change that sound but that doesn't make it any less of a great release. "The Eye" has the instruments I've grown accustomed to hearing from Infinite: piano, strings (violins), synths, and hard hitting drums. The song starts of slow and gradually builds into the awesome chorus, the only complaint is that the electronic beat that comes right after the chorus could have been implemented better. I feel like it was shoehorned in there five minutes before the album had to be mass-produced. The second verse does a good job of carrying the electro beat though, thus making the next little sputter less jarring. Overall the ...

BoA's Top 15 Korean Songs - #14 - Adrenaline

BoA has finally returned to Korea after five years of exclusively promoting, and she chose a great time to make a comeback in Korea. K-pop was taking off at the same time J-pop was sliding. There are many tracks off of "Hurricane Venus" that are really good, and it was hard to select which tracks from this album would end up making the top 15 list. "Adrenaline" was easily going to make the list, but the question was where at. True to its name, "Adrenaline" is a pure three minutes of straight up adrenaline. There is not one boring point in this song, and the compressed time of three minutes really helps out. (At this point in time in 2010, I was so used to BoA's five minute long Japanese songs.) I love the electronic beat with the bumping base. The verses are good, but the chorus takes it to the next gear. "Adrenaline" was one of the songs that made me one of the few fans who enjoy BoA's Korean songs more than her Japanese ones. Since 2010...
