idk i just can't get into this new generation of kpop. it's like talent doesn't matter as much anymore and as long as you have a pretty face or a big company you become successful, regardless of how talented you are. i  know some of y'all are probably diehard once's but what in the actual is the joke of a group called twice? i've never seen a group that was so untalented, seriously. sure they're pretty but that doesn't equal talent. theybdefijitthe should not have debuted when they did. but hey, they're pretty and under one of the big three, so of course they're popular. it's actually gross how they constantly win awards when there are groups with actual singing talent and half of them barely even trained to get where they are now. they got to sit and ride off of the fame of older groups from jyp like miss a and the wondergirls. honestly, where would they be had they not been under jyp? that goes for groups like blackpink and red velvet too. they got to ride off of the fame groups like big bang, 2ne1, snsd, shinee, dbsk etc. do you really think they'd be relevant if they weren't under yg or sm? because there are groups under small conpsnies who have similar concepts but go unnoticed due to them not having a huge company to back them up. and what's funny is that some of those groups have more talent than them. blackpink is alright, but it's obvious that they're just the bad attempt at replacing 2ne1. red velvet is just mediocre at best, with wendy really being the only having a voice that stands out and is above average. even some of these other girl groups that are somewhat popular end up looking and sounding like carbon copies of each other and it's just sad. boy groups are nearly the same way. along with that, a lot of them seem extremely fake and stuck up or extremely bland and boring.  not to mention how someone is always on the news or all over the internet for doing something. this generation seems really problematic. kpop just really seems to have lost its touch and the spark that made me interested in it. everything just really started going downhill and turning to after 2013, and now a lot of older groups are disbanding. i know half of this site and fans of all these newer groups are gonna try to come for me and try to tell me how i'm wrong, go right ahead, give me a good laugh. a difdeeing opinion, so hard to fathom right?
