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.

BoA's Top 15 Korean Songs - #9 - Hope

BoA's "Hope" is a song that lives up to its name. This is really just a pick-me-up song that I go to a lot. I love BoA's ballads, but this is one of the ones that I love the most. Most of hers have melancholic lyrics, but like the title suggests, this song can give one some hope.

"Sixteen" Ends; Twice is Born

JYP’s “Sixteen” program aired its final episode today and there has been a giant shitstorm surrounding the show since the MILK voting poll ended last night. Even if you’re not invested in the show and/or the group, bystanders will get a lot of enjoyment out of what happened today. For those of you out of the loop, “Sixteen” was a survival program for JYP’s upcoming girl group Twice. It has already been five years since JYP has debuted a girl group (miss A). Out of the 16 girls, 7 were supposed to debut in the group. This show was to see which seven members was going to debut. The seven girls were placed in the “Major” group and the other nine were placed in the “Minor” group. There were missions to see which members would trade places, and usually at the end of a mission, someone from the Minor team would be eliminated. (This is a long post and contains spoilers if you haven’t seen the last episode or read the spoilers yet.) At the start of the last episode, there were 12 members left,...
