i was a predebut fan and they actually got me back into kpop fan culture after i stopped listening to it 😭😭 i thought the ae concept was so cool and i wanted to see where they’d take it !! it’s been amazing to watch them grow into who they are today
I'm a SM and a Kpop stan since 2007. I'm a pre debut MY too. I love their concept, the four QUEENS, the four aes and their discography. I will love and protect them no matter what.
I think Aespa makes quirky music and they are really talented. I love their concept, the set design for all their videos, the cool editing in their videos, their outfits & their personalities. I genuinely want them to win. 💜
I believe it’s because every team of their group is working hard. The company is working hard to promote them and give them high quality comebacks, the stylist try their best to give them amazing outfits, the cgi team goes all out, their producers seem to be one of the most creative in the game, and the girls themselves try their best to develop their talents. It really shows that every team of your group needs to work hard in order to make a successful debut/comeback; no team should slack off.
But what about the rest it's not like a competition I'm an aespa Stan too but if any kpop group is doing it for fame and pretending to be nice and stuff I'm done stanning them for good
The members worked so hard to get to where they are now, and they surpassed all those harsh and mean criticism that went by them. These girls are absolutely beautiful, talented and their concept and songs are unique. I know that they will even be more successful in the future. And them being a group from SM as well, their future will sure be secured.
aespa is a precious group. They made K-pop fun again to watch and follow because of the unique lore and concept. It's always a comeback that will be much anticipated by K-pop fans around the world. Pretty sure everyone who's into K-pop will one day accept that they are truly amazing.
I think a lot of aespa's "scandals" and "reasons" for hate, such as lacking stage presence or comparison to Blackpink or polarizing music style, is just netizens making a fuss for their own entertainment. Some people thrive off online arguments. So making things to be loud and upset about, whatever side of the argument they're on, it's really just noise. The sales and views show how people REALLY feel.
exactly! people have been using the past standards to judge new things that completely different. they are hoping aespa singing next levels while smiling and pretending to be empowered girls who had a crush and got rejected and then transform into a naughty bad boss beach LOL thats where "the no stage presence" accusation came from. feminist just little but because they are loud, people who are on the top that can influence other people opinions started to used this as CONTENTS. just making videos like "brutal ranks of stage presence of 4th gen" that videos will sucking up thousands of views and of course dollars for the content creators. you will always see how they are always so entitled and full of them self by making big announcement at the 1st of their videos that THIS IS MY OWN OPINIONS AND YOURS DOESNT MATTERS. lol its all bout contents and money, in the expense of aespa who doesnt even know that their puny little channel with thousands of feminist mindless zombies even exist. and sadly this cancelled cultures had been ruling on this world, just like the narative of russia is bad because they started the war, but they kept silent about how US democrat left wing groups have been funding biochemical weapons labs around ukraine and thats the reasons which is started the war. loud self entitle feminist mindless zombies.
That "aespa has no stage presence" came too far and now people repeat that without even noticing that they are becoming the most successful 4th gen girlgroup lmao. Aespa has freaking lot presence.
With Blackpink and Girls Generation (at the time) being inactive as a group and not being interested in the new girl groups I was so ready to leave kpop but when I heard about Aespa debuting and I saw the black mamba teasers I was instantly hooked. Over the last year and a half I’ve connected with the girls so much and I’m so proud of how they are leading the 4th generation of kpop in such a short amount of time. Nasty bitter antis can try to defame and insult the girls but MYs will always be there to protect and defend them. They will continue to grow their fanbase in SK and internationally. Can’t wait to see what the future holds for The 4th Gen Leaders aespa!
I'm not surprised about this "sudden" success. I knew from the concept announcement that they were going to be big. People just needed time to realize that this new genre and era that Aespa brings to kpop was needed. My queens are selling and it's just going to get bigger and bigger. Prepare yourself to have your wig snatched. I can't wait to go to their concert one day.
They debuted from one of the biggest idol company in sk and they are talented. Even if someone said they hate them, they be waiting for their cb and their existence is known because they are from SM. No one can beat the company privilege. And their concept is new and eye catching.
Yeah no one can beat sm and it's privilege but no one has brain like lee soman...aespa smcu it has webtoon, motion graphic, avatar, cartoon,animation and there are planning novel too...almost 13 company are involved just for 17 min video...so more than 30 year of hard work, dedication,talent they reached to this point...it's not like sm entertainment has money from the beginning they worked for it
@@cocolemon8942 Hybe actually already hire some ex-sm Workers lol......Fun fact : When Bang Bd nim buit Big hit he said he was inspired by Sm and Lee Soo Man and he wants to make Company like Sm
yes, why does everyone forgets that each sm girl group becomes extremely famous, in fx there were some issues, that led to their hiatus, while red velvet was at the top in their debut year, until twice got viral with cheer up, so the same was expected from aespa, their success was 100 percent guaranteed, blackpink was also absent for two years, so they didn't have a strong competitor until ive come, now their biggest competitor is ive, if bp comebacks it can change the game, but internationally aespa still need more popularity, they haven't even charted on bb hot 100
While company privilege is indeed an advantage but it isn't all that positive. Red Velvet and NCT were having a hard time debuting because majority didn't understand their concept especially NCT. They did NOT GET the same popularity as aespa right now in their year. RV got big in late 2017 while NCT got big in late 2019. So what im trying to tell you is that company privilege doesn't make them successful right away but if we're talking about resources and quality music then yes, SM have it all and do they deserve it? Yes of course! SM worked their way up too!
I didn't know a lot of things about aespa before til recently because of my friend who is also one of their hater, she told me that there is a girl group copying Black Pink and I was like "Okay! none of my business" since I'm not that big fan of kpop..but some fandoms were hating on them even more esp when they were invited to coachella, so so I wanted to watch their performance for the first time which was really amazing especially ningning's high notes, I kept following them and then I realized that it wasn't about "aespa is copying black pink" or "they are not talented" or blah blah blah.. It's just jealousy. Stop hating on the poor girls they are nice and really talented I even want to become their fan now.
aespa deserves every success they're having rn. imagine the hate that people put on them just because they debuted. i'm a reveluv (that's my ult group, been a reveluv since debut), and i will never defend/forgive those reveluvs who hated aespa when they debuted. i hope they remember that red velvet also had the same hate from some fans of snsd/f(x) and to think that they would do that too for aespa is disgusting. they, of all fans, should know what it's like to be hated just because they debuted around the time where there are scandals needed to be covered up. i wish these girls all the success. in naevis & aeskarma i believe, amen.
The only thing I dont like here is that other 4th gen groups are totally changing their identity to become aespa, it's obvious that this kind of experimental songs with beat drops and crazy changes started in SM way baaack in 2010's, and it wasn't until Next Level that other kpop agencies found it like the key to sucess (but some groups can't cause this same effect even if they try). Aespa's music is really something unique in Kpop, if you just listen to their instrumentals, you will notice the amount of detail they put into it, as if their producers study the music so well before putting it out. I would like if each group had their own identity and stop trying to replicate this because then, that uniqueness isn't going to be the same.
Indeed, that is why SME is the blueprint and trendsetter because other agencies are copying them. They produce weird and not a cup of tea groups but they are the most loved group after debuting.
Their members definitely are interesting 😂 never seen a black person in kpop who looks completely Asian and white scream the nword because they get carried away lmao
@@pokemon4lyfe490 am not even gonna discuss this with you.. They're successful and well loved and that's pretty enough for me.. If you don't like that go somewhere else
@@pokemon4lyfe490I'm black my self but she apologized if you don't want to accept its OK but stop bashing her people make mistakes aftera all she is human too for God's sake leave her alone
@@pokemon4lyfe490 when did anyone even scream the nword in their group? Did you hear anyone's voice loud enough to call it a "scream" or did you just see someone mouthed it with no bad intentions, not towards anyone specifically? Did you see anyone in that group constantly using the nword or did it only happen once? Move on hater.
My take/explanation for this is: people around the world want singers who makes unique remarkable music, not dancers, not people who gives out lip bites and winks on stage then call it 'stage presence', so you get 'aespa'. Out of all the 4th gen groups, aespa is the best vocally, but it popped out more cause of their great discography, yes they often don't sing live, yes they dance poorly sometimes, but you know they still are the real singers of this generation, all four have well developed and promising vocals (Giselle has more to offer yet is not done justice by the line distributions), you got two female rappers that wiped out the "poor female rappers" reputation of SM ent., And you got a never-done-before concept/lore + experimental hyperpop but still digestible music to most listeners. Why do i emphasize the "singer" you may ask, because well, what are these idols' main job? To sing, and to be great at it. Like, those dance moves, those smirks and smiles that people call 'stage presence', that's not what you'll find at Spotify and apple music, half of the world couldn't care less about these inkigayo performances, me personally, i only watch them for the new outfits, that's the reason why aespa is ahead and others are behind, aespa is from SM who really focuses on building singers instead of dancing dolls, others stray away from the real thing, so obviously they reach nothing more than that. Like, just because you turn on your mics doesn't mean you can sing. And then your fans have the gall to lash on aespa like, GO AWAY, take that nonsense somewhere else.
yeah like me I dont like watching hard choreos from idols...also too much lip bites and winks...I just dont understand why they do that...its just like they are sick or something
When i first got into k-pop, my first group was BLACKPINK and still is. After that i decided that i'm not going to listen to any other groups besides BLACKPINK but, suddenly one day a music video pops up on my RUclips name as BLACK MAMBA AESPA. Then i just randomly tap on the video because the cover of the MV looks good. And that was the time i got familiar with AESPA and their MUSIC and the good thing was that day was the debut day of the AESPA. And from that moment i decided to get into AESPA and know more about them. 💜 And now they are one of my ULTRA GROUP!!!
Same, I am a 2nd Gen fan, but Blackpink made me stay in 3rd Gen, and now æspa is my ultimate group I love her concept, vocals, music, members, such an ambitious group
I was fortunate enough to see Aespa at their LA Showcase (I actually went to both days because I am a very committed fan) it was absolutely incredible. We got to see them perform a few different songs and it was really cool to see them perform Illusion and Life's Too Short live!!! They also did a Q and A session and they did some TikTok challenges. It was so much fun!!!! The best part was that when they were performing Lucid Dream I waved at Karina and she waved back at me!!!! It made me feel so good to be noticed by her!!! I loved seeing Aespa live and I am so proud of them and I am really happy that they are killing it with their Promotions in the U.S.
aespa made me come back to the realms of K-pop. Their concept is unique, their music is one of a kind plus their distinct vocals made them stand out. Personality wise, I just love the 4 of them. Ningning and Giselle are very GEN Z
being a fan since their pre-debut feels so different like all the negative feelings yall dont want to feel will probably comeout because of the haters and baseless rumors about them. Im so happy they achieved all of these, they deserve it!
aespa is my fav 4th gen gg and i've been stanning them ever since pre-debut, but when i heard black mamba i was like that's my group. i think what attracted me is their unique concept and obviously their talents, i can't wait till girls gets released!
When I heard they performed at Coachella~ I gave them all props. It takes a lot as a rookie group who doesn’t have much experience performing on stage in front of a crowd. This is a group that takes risk. But SM is a company that is known to take a lot of risk in innovative ways when it comes to branching out of the norm.
Maybe you mean in their Rookie era. Bcus blackpink gets hate for nothing actually I would say 1. Blackpink 2. Aespa They always get hate for nothing 😭😭 can’t people just leave them alone?😭
@@ahamli0805 nah, aespa is the most hated group ever and then blackpink. Aespa did nothing wrong I dont get why people still hating on them but I think why :)
I witnessed em live last night and i’m telling u… aespa ain’t playing. I would definitely love to see em flourish even more such a very talented group 💛
Im so proud of them i love their unique concept and their music also the members are the sweetest ppl i don’t understand the hate they getting (Aespa to the top!)
Aespa are talented group they deserve the success they got cuz they worked hard on it i hope they get better and better and get more successful by time
I’m so happy on what AESPA has achieved. People hated them for baseless reasons. They deserve every amount of success. Aespa is talented, pretty(don’t hate them for ps, majority idols also did ps) PROUD MY HERE~ Y’all just hate successful women
The reason they have a million preorders is because Savage (the mini) has 0 bad songs on it, it's that simple. We are expecting the quality at this point!
exactly so like after savage there's this huge anticipation for the next aespa album that's been going on since the beginning of March because savage was just immaculate. Even though the girls album is only a filler album it still did great.
Despite being getting alot of hate they never give up and doing so much better i really like their concept and also their style so yeah they deserve it
I think aespa has the coolest most interesting concept ever. And the fact that they do remakes of iconic songs is just brilliant. They’re definitely going down in history as one of the most impactful girl groups imo.
I couldnt wrap my head arround their music at first. I thought it was annoying and loud but fell in love with savage prechorus and now im expecting good things from them. Winter is SME secret weapon, shes mad talented and my bias.
6:10 Something much bigger is missing here. Not just a Rookie Grandslam but also the rookie award at the KMA (the Korean Grammy basically) that made it to a so-called Ultimate Rookie Grandslam (that's how they call this on twitter) which nobody in kpop history has ever achieved before +SOTY and that has also caused a "hate wave" before Coachella, just FYI.
They were popular since their debut its just that they were hate by jaelous fandom in same time 🥰 they work really hard so proud of them and are very very talented and thank you for making videos about them 💜💜💜💜💜 Aespa 💜 My 💗
@@akuhappy3246 It’s formerly known as Facebook. But the CEO (Mark Zuckerberg), tweeted that they’re ready for Aespa in the metaverse. SM was smart for going with a risky concept as it’s now being applied in the west which gives them good promotions.
the most shocking fact is that… they came into kpop when there was already a leader of 4th gen ggs. who would’ve thought they would be even more successful and popular than them? like when they first debuted i remember i clearly said that no matter how hard sm tries they should’ve debuted them a year earlier, that there was no way they would catch up to itzy… they didn’t only catch up but became even more popular and successful (no hate to itzy its just facts) like it’s so shocking to me and all that thanks to NEXT LEVEL!!! thanks to that queen aespa became hit makers and got viral in korea. i’m so so so so proud 🥲 they were the most hated once but now they’re the most popular, successful and leaders of 4th generation!!
They did a lot of hard work. They went to Coachella, SMCU ep.2 , new comeback, life's too short mv , la show case , constant comebacks , unique concepts, voices , visuals and the most important , that they are trying to get in international market
Isn't it with every SM group... first people hate them and said that they don't deserve to debut but later on they become the leader/kings/queenns of each generation
I got into them right after next level and was a bit confused but after some time I came to loveee their concept, experimental sound and the girls in general❣️i cannottt wait for the girls album!!
"even haters kept listening to their songs" I CANNOT, btw i love aespa sooooooo much and I think they deserve to be leading 4th gen. they're so talented and they're improving every stage, every comeback, every performance. actually, words cant describe how much i'm proud of them
the first song i ever heard from them was “next level” and i actually laughed out loud at the beat drop. but you’re right, it eventually grew on me and i came to love their concept. cant wait for girls 💚
Aespa's music, concept and lore is just pure perfection!🔥💖💯 Honestly, you can't be successful without haters. I'm not saying it's right but that's what comes with being the best and at top of your game! Having been a huge fan since the day 'Black Mamba' dropped, i can definitely see why Aespa keeps breaking records left and right!
been a kpop fan for 8 years and was about to quit stanning groups after EXO but RV, NCT aespa made me stay. Especially aespa which concept is making me anticipate in every comeback, more success for this group cause this talented girls deserve it
As a my since debut it amazes me how much aespa has grown over these two years... So happy for the girls..They are achieving so much at such a young age. I think their futuristic concept is reason behind their sudden popularity..It attracts so much audience especially the younger ones...
It took me a second to fully understand the concept but now that I get it I think they have the best concept ever! They are so talented! I think it took them a while to connect to their Ae’s but now they feel more comfortable
Aespa deserve everything except hate. They aren't just visuals, they are truly TALENTED. All of them have a powerful voices and great dancers, and I think the reason behind their success is because they are humble and hardworking.
Aespa have gotten this far on their talent alone, they are doing so well now, they are one of the best girl group and most loved by their fans. You can see they are the most fun, genuine and likeable girls, there was never a reason to hate them. They are so deserving of all their success and popularity now. More power to them! xoxo
Even before predebut Aespa already received so much hate. They didn't even do anything in that time. I'm sure the main reason of most hates is something about being 'threatened"
Im a kpop stan since 2007 and the fire that makes me love kpop died after 2ne1 disbandment. Aespa ignited again the flame of my dying love for kpop. I will do everything to support and protect them. Their concept is a revolutionary METAPHOR. You need your heart and mind to understand their concept.
Your analysis is always top tier and so well balanced. I'll listen to you discuss any kpop topic thank you so much for all of the work you've done so far!! Edit: I'm a 2nd gen fan so it's so hard to learn all this new stuff and stay up to date but you're so through I feel like I'm back in the game 💕
I'm not actually into girlgroups because I easily get bored, aespa is the first girl group that I anticipated to, and I can't help but to watch their contents.
no. winning rookie grandslam is having at least 5 rookie awards in major award shows but aespa manage to win 7 which is more than enough that is more than a rookie grandslam.
Thinking back about aespa's debut gives me chills , Black Mamba blew me away and I was like wow they are gonna slay the 4th generation and also the fact that they are the only girl group in SM that vibe with they just instantly clicked for me and joined my top 5 ult girl groups and also the teasers for the members were insane I fell in love with giselle first from the teasers then winter became my ult and now i am ot4
I'm an SM stan so I was anticipating their debut since their debut announcement. When I watched their teasers for the Black Mamba, I know they'll be big because of the power this group holds. And they absolutely earn the success they have right now and they still deserve more success. Who's with me on supporting them forever?
At first I wasn't that fond of aespa but when next level was released there was nothing else but aespa I could talk or listen too their music is like a gift to the world their just amazing people and idols and deserve all the success in the world
To me, aespa captured me with their visuals in the beginning. After hearing Black Mamba, their vocals captured me. After Next Level, I became a MY 💙⭐️🌙🦋
Hates? They are part of that. I wondered why they know what happend to them in the future, they planned the concept, the what about what, song, the concept and stories was planned before debut, and after debuted the company keep using contorversy and trigged statement that could create hates to the group, so the group could have something to relate to the planned concept? So that they can gain whatswhat from their own doing and can continue the planned play victim concept?. The group is not even care about these they actually want the attention, the group is pretentious, and the concept is on the next level of manipulation, they even know and have specific reference about someting before it happened, they even create the way to make it happend so that they can continue the concept and story.
It isn't only because SM is their agent since other big companies such as JYP, YG, HYBE also have 4th gen girl groups. The competitions are so tight in K-pop, especially in 4th gen.
I wasn’t that into asspa’s tech concept but their new song was sooo good! I’m not much of a fan but I hope the best for them and I feel horrible that they were criticized for their nationality or just being mistreated by their own staff. Just because your not a fan doesn’t give you the right to hate on them. If you don’t like their concept or songs then just leave it that but don’t go on and say horrible things about the actual members.
To those people who doubted their concept and dragging them for copying some K-Pop group. Well hello? Comeback and say it again lol remember, they came from SM who created the kpop concept . Big brain LEE SOO MAN 👌
To me they were great from the beginning and bever understood the hate they got. The inly thing that disappointed me was that they never perform lived. And then with the coachella festival they really showed a great live performance so NOW I can say they are pretty good all around.
the real answer: aespa has a really strong Chinese fanbase. most of the sales come from dedicated Chinese fans. they’re also doing great domestically and internationally, so remaining sales come from that. but it’s the fact that they have a secure position in the Chinese market that made them a million seller.
i think most nctzens, at least on my twt timeline, showed their support for Aespa when their debut was announced. nctzens knew how it felt when some fans of their seniors hated on the neos.
aespa is the first girl group that i like the most. starting from their debut i really like the concept, song, visual, talent, attitude and voice of all of them i really like... the spirit of aespa.i love you
I feel like in this generation every group who debut will find some hate at their early days but suddenly people will be like "omggg they're so talented".. Kpop fans like to take wrong impressions and jump into conclusions
Everyone used to say that their concept is cringe and asked SM to stop taking risks with their groups...but when I came to know about their concept, I somehow thought that this concept will make them big in future. They are on the way to prove haters wrong...their each songs sounds different and I decided to stan them after knowing the concept and after listening to black mamba ,next level aespa has become my fav kpop group ever.
Aespa was Destin for greatest since Black Mamba era I saw their talent & how Aespa will change Kpop by it core ...I said it many time s back then ...Let me tell u Aespa will rule Kpop for years to come ... statues will be made for them in Korea to honour them in new future ... Aespa will go in Kpop history as group that dominated the modern century ...they will even get more successful as they already are ...more brand deals add to there 20+ already ...Kpop will be form in Aespa image & rule 💜⭐🌛🦋
It's undeniable that haters have intervened in their popularity, always comparing them to big girl groups, so people got curious n wtch their mv...n bang people love it 🤣 thnk u haters
I wasn't into them at first but fell in love with them after "dreams come true," I stan them now. such a gorgeous song. I've preordered all 4 versions of their comeback now and I can't wait....
Out of the top entertainment companies in SK only SMent have the balls to try different kinds of stuff in their groups' music and im happy that they get rewarded for it i really liked feel my rhythm and also excited for aespa cb....will always be a proud SM group stan
i was a predebut fan and they actually got me back into kpop fan culture after i stopped listening to it 😭😭 i thought the ae concept was so cool and i wanted to see where they’d take it !! it’s been amazing to watch them grow into who they are today

aespa is a precious group. They made K-pop fun again to watch and follow because of the unique lore and concept. It's always a comeback that will be much anticipated by K-pop fans around the world. Pretty sure everyone who's into K-pop will one day accept that they are truly amazing.
I think a lot of aespa's "scandals" and "reasons" for hate, such as lacking stage presence or comparison to Blackpink or polarizing music style, is just netizens making a fuss for their own entertainment. Some people thrive off online arguments. So making things to be loud and upset about, whatever side of the argument they're on, it's really just noise. The sales and views show how people REALLY feel.
exactly! people have been using the past standards to judge new things that completely different.
they are hoping aespa singing next levels while smiling and pretending to be empowered girls who had a crush and got rejected and then transform into a naughty bad boss beach LOL
thats where "the no stage presence" accusation came from.
feminist just little but because they are loud, people who are on the top that can influence other people opinions started to used this as CONTENTS.
just making videos like "brutal ranks of stage presence of 4th gen" that videos will sucking up thousands of views and of course dollars for the content creators.
you will always see how they are always so entitled and full of them self by making big announcement at the 1st of their videos that THIS IS MY OWN OPINIONS AND YOURS DOESNT MATTERS. lol
its all bout contents and money, in the expense of aespa who doesnt even know that their puny little channel with thousands of feminist mindless zombies even exist. and sadly this cancelled cultures had been ruling on this world, just like the narative of russia is bad because they started the war, but they kept silent about how US democrat left wing groups have been funding biochemical weapons labs around ukraine and thats the reasons which is started the war.
loud self entitle feminist mindless zombies.
That "aespa has no stage presence" came too far and now people repeat that without even noticing that they are becoming the most successful 4th gen girlgroup lmao. Aespa has freaking lot presence.
With Blackpink and Girls Generation (at the time) being inactive as a group and not being interested in the new girl groups I was so ready to leave kpop but when I heard about Aespa debuting and I saw the black mamba teasers I was instantly hooked. Over the last year and a half I’ve connected with the girls so much and I’m so proud of how they are leading the 4th generation of kpop in such a short amount of time. Nasty bitter antis can try to defame and insult the girls but MYs will always be there to protect and defend them. They will continue to grow their fanbase in SK and internationally. Can’t wait to see what the future holds for The 4th Gen Leaders aespa!
Blackpink will cb but there inactivity and lack of contents is the problem.
@@flymetotheup9904 I totally agree they don’t even interact with fans on Weverse or do V lives.
I'm not surprised about this "sudden" success. I knew from the concept announcement that they were going to be big. People just needed time to realize that this new genre and era that Aespa brings to kpop was needed. My queens are selling and it's just going to get bigger and bigger. Prepare yourself to have your wig snatched.
I can't wait to go to their concert one day.
They debuted from one of the biggest idol company in sk and they are talented. Even if someone said they hate them, they be waiting for their cb and their existence is known because they are from SM. No one can beat the company privilege. And their concept is new and eye catching.
Yeah no one can beat sm and it's privilege but no one has brain like lee soman...aespa smcu it has webtoon, motion graphic, avatar, cartoon,animation and there are planning novel too...almost 13 company are involved just for 17 min video...so more than 30 year of hard work, dedication,talent they reached to this point...it's not like sm entertainment has money from the beginning they worked for it
@@pinkblood2671 lee soman and the people behind SM are genius. That is why hybe wants to acquire them. Hahaha
@@cocolemon8942 Hybe actually already hire some ex-sm Workers lol......Fun fact : When Bang Bd nim buit Big hit he said he was inspired by Sm and Lee Soo Man and he wants to make Company like Sm
yes, why does everyone forgets that each sm girl group becomes extremely famous, in fx there were some issues, that led to their hiatus, while red velvet was at the top in their debut year, until twice got viral with cheer up, so the same was expected from aespa, their success was 100 percent guaranteed, blackpink was also absent for two years, so they didn't have a strong competitor until ive come, now their biggest competitor is ive, if bp comebacks it can change the game, but internationally aespa still need more popularity, they haven't even charted on bb hot 100
While company privilege is indeed an advantage but it isn't all that positive. Red Velvet and NCT were having a hard time debuting because majority didn't understand their concept especially NCT. They did NOT GET the same popularity as aespa right now in their year. RV got big in late 2017 while NCT got big in late 2019.
So what im trying to tell you is that company privilege doesn't make them successful right away but if we're talking about resources and quality music then yes, SM have it all and do they deserve it? Yes of course! SM worked their way up too!
I didn't know a lot of things about aespa before til recently because of my friend who is also one of their hater, she told me that there is a girl group copying Black Pink and I was like "Okay! none of my business" since I'm not that big fan of kpop..but some fandoms were hating on them even more esp when they were invited to coachella, so
so I wanted to watch their performance for the first time which was really amazing especially ningning's high notes, I kept following them and then I realized that it wasn't about "aespa is copying black pink" or "they are not talented" or blah blah blah.. It's just jealousy. Stop hating on the poor girls they are nice and really talented I even want to become their fan now.
Thank you 🖤 aespa is rlly an amazing group
So Sweet of you.. You can follow them if you love 💯
the only thing similar to BP is the number of members... but u know.. haters and jealous people will always be present.. so.. better to ignore them :)
Ning ning high note when they sang live??
@@moonyun6580 yea watch their Coachella performance the fancams. And their fanmeet as well, they sang live
aespa deserves every success they're having rn. imagine the hate that people put on them just because they debuted. i'm a reveluv (that's my ult group, been a reveluv since debut), and i will never defend/forgive those reveluvs who hated aespa when they debuted. i hope they remember that red velvet also had the same hate from some fans of snsd/f(x) and to think that they would do that too for aespa is disgusting. they, of all fans, should know what it's like to be hated just because they debuted around the time where there are scandals needed to be covered up. i wish these girls all the success. in naevis & aeskarma i believe, amen.
The only thing I dont like here is that other 4th gen groups are totally changing their identity to become aespa, it's obvious that this kind of experimental songs with beat drops and crazy changes started in SM way baaack in 2010's, and it wasn't until Next Level that other kpop agencies found it like the key to sucess (but some groups can't cause this same effect even if they try). Aespa's music is really something unique in Kpop, if you just listen to their instrumentals, you will notice the amount of detail they put into it, as if their producers study the music so well before putting it out. I would like if each group had their own identity and stop trying to replicate this because then, that uniqueness isn't going to be the same.
Indeed, that is why SME is the blueprint and trendsetter because other agencies are copying them. They produce weird and not a cup of tea groups but they are the most loved group after debuting.
Way back in 90's with H.O.T's I yah
Everything about aespa is interesting.. Their concept, music, members... Everyone will like them at some point
Their members definitely are interesting 😂 never seen a black person in kpop who looks completely Asian and white scream the nword because they get carried away lmao
@@pokemon4lyfe490 am not even gonna discuss this with you.. They're successful and well loved and that's pretty enough for me.. If you don't like that go somewhere else

@@AnzzCheatedOnMarkWithHaechan Donald trump so successful by your logic we should praise him too ? I mean he also calls black people slurs
@@pokemon4lyfe490 when did anyone even scream the nword in their group? Did you hear anyone's voice loud enough to call it a "scream" or did you just see someone mouthed it with no bad intentions, not towards anyone specifically? Did you see anyone in that group constantly using the nword or did it only happen once? Move on hater.
aespa is one of my top fave groups & for a reason! they've continuously worked so hard to get where they are & i'm so proud of them!
My take/explanation for this is: people around the world want singers who makes unique remarkable music, not dancers, not people who gives out lip bites and winks on stage then call it 'stage presence', so you get 'aespa'. Out of all the 4th gen groups, aespa is the best vocally, but it popped out more cause of their great discography, yes they often don't sing live, yes they dance poorly sometimes, but you know they still are the real singers of this generation, all four have well developed and promising vocals (Giselle has more to offer yet is not done justice by the line distributions), you got two female rappers that wiped out the "poor female rappers" reputation of SM ent., And you got a never-done-before concept/lore + experimental hyperpop but still digestible music to most listeners. Why do i emphasize the "singer" you may ask, because well, what are these idols' main job? To sing, and to be great at it. Like, those dance moves, those smirks and smiles that people call 'stage presence', that's not what you'll find at Spotify and apple music, half of the world couldn't care less about these inkigayo performances, me personally, i only watch them for the new outfits, that's the reason why aespa is ahead and others are behind, aespa is from SM who really focuses on building singers instead of dancing dolls, others stray away from the real thing, so obviously they reach nothing more than that. Like, just because you turn on your mics doesn't mean you can sing. And then your fans have the gall to lash on aespa like, GO AWAY, take that nonsense somewhere else.
yeah like me I dont like watching hard choreos from idols...also too much lip bites and winks...I just dont understand why they do that...its just like they are sick or something
You spittin facts..
@@primo9211 yeah too much smirks too example itzy
So truueeee
This is what I try to explain to people but it’s too many words lol so thank you for wording it for me haha
When i first got into k-pop, my first group was BLACKPINK and still is. After that i decided that i'm not going to listen to any other groups besides BLACKPINK but, suddenly one day a music video pops up on my RUclips name as BLACK MAMBA AESPA. Then i just randomly tap on the video because the cover of the MV looks good. And that was the time i got familiar with AESPA and their MUSIC and the good thing was that day was the debut day of the AESPA. And from that moment i decided to get into AESPA and know more about them. 💜 And now they are one of my ULTRA GROUP!!!
Aww love this
Same, I am a 2nd Gen fan, but Blackpink made me stay in 3rd Gen, and now æspa is my ultimate group I love her concept, vocals, music, members, such an ambitious group
I was fortunate enough to see Aespa at their LA Showcase (I actually went to both days because I am a very committed fan) it was absolutely incredible. We got to see them perform a few different songs and it was really cool to see them perform Illusion and Life's Too Short live!!! They also did a Q and A session and they did some TikTok challenges. It was so much fun!!!! The best part was that when they were performing Lucid Dream I waved at Karina and she waved back at me!!!! It made me feel so good to be noticed by her!!! I loved seeing Aespa live and I am so proud of them and I am really happy that they are killing it with their Promotions in the U.S.
aespa made me come back to the realms of K-pop. Their concept is unique, their music is one of a kind plus their distinct vocals made them stand out. Personality wise, I just love the 4 of them. Ningning and Giselle are very GEN Z
The "SECRET BEHIND" Aespa's "SUDDEN" Success is: Ignore the haters because Life's Too Short.
Yesss
frr
being a fan since their pre-debut feels so different like all the negative feelings yall dont want to feel will probably comeout because of the haters and baseless rumors about them. Im so happy they achieved all of these, they deserve it!
aespa is my fav 4th gen gg and i've been stanning them ever since pre-debut, but when i heard black mamba i was like that's my group. i think what attracted me is their unique concept and obviously their talents, i can't wait till girls gets released!
When I heard they performed at Coachella~ I gave them all props. It takes a lot as a rookie group who doesn’t have much experience performing on stage in front of a crowd. This is a group that takes risk. But SM is a company that is known to take a lot of risk in innovative ways when it comes to branching out of the norm.
I've been a kpop fan for some years but I don't think I've seen a kpop group get that much hate as aespa
Maybe you mean in their Rookie era. Bcus blackpink gets hate for nothing actually I would say
1. Blackpink
2. Aespa
They always get hate for nothing 😭😭 can’t people just leave them alone?😭
You haven't seen enough I guess
@@ahamli0805 nah, aespa is the most hated group ever and then blackpink. Aespa did nothing wrong I dont get why people still hating on them but I think why :)
@@notmyname3556 so??
@Clearcolour blinks and midzy
I witnessed em live last night and i’m telling u… aespa ain’t playing. I would definitely love to see em flourish even more such a very talented group 💛
I'm just in love with the group, I've never felt like this before, I feel part of the group and I will always support them💜✨
Im so proud of them i love their unique concept and their music also the members are the sweetest ppl i don’t understand the hate they getting (Aespa to the top!)
Aespa are talented group they deserve the success they got cuz they worked hard on it i hope they get better and better and get more successful by time
I’m so happy on what AESPA has achieved. People hated them for baseless reasons. They deserve every amount of success. Aespa is talented, pretty(don’t hate them for ps, majority idols also did ps)
PROUD MY HERE~ Y’all just hate successful women
Correction we hate racist women. I can tell you’re the type to support amber heard lol
The reason they have a million preorders is because Savage (the mini) has 0 bad songs on it, it's that simple. We are expecting the quality at this point!
exactly so like after savage there's this huge anticipation for the next aespa album that's been going on since the beginning of March because savage was just immaculate. Even though the girls album is only a filler album it still did great.
Love Aespa so much they are so sweet kind and innocent don’t understand why people hate them for no reason
Despite being getting alot of hate they never give up and doing so much better i really like their concept and also their style so yeah they deserve it
They never gave up? They have contract wdym? They cant quit just like that. It's more about the company than these members. ah
@@redefinedliving5974 she means that they never lose confidence and kept getting improved
I think aespa has the coolest most interesting concept ever. And the fact that they do remakes of iconic songs is just brilliant. They’re definitely going down in history as one of the most impactful girl groups imo.
I couldnt wrap my head arround their music at first. I thought it was annoying and loud but fell in love with savage prechorus and now im expecting good things from them. Winter is SME secret weapon, shes mad talented and my bias.
I will always root for my babies, aespa. I never stan a kpop group before, but they’re so interesting, they make me get into kpop
They are destined for success..I personally don't like what SM does in some cases but I admit lee su man ..is a genius...AM rooting for aespa....
6:10 Something much bigger is missing here. Not just a Rookie Grandslam but also the rookie award at the KMA (the Korean Grammy basically) that made it to a so-called Ultimate Rookie Grandslam (that's how they call this on twitter) which nobody in kpop history has ever achieved before +SOTY and that has also caused a "hate wave" before Coachella, just FYI.
Say it louder bestie
They were popular since their debut its just that they were hate by jaelous fandom in same time 🥰 they work really hard so proud of them and are very very talented and thank you for making videos about them 💜💜💜💜💜
Aespa 💜 My 💗
There are some criticism about their ae concept too. Some group of peoples thrown their concern about the impact of these ae marketing
@@akuhappy3246 Tbh, it’s paying off. They are getting recognised by META and their concept moves well with the times of technology
@@cindyy7703 what is META? i'm happy for their succes too
@@akuhappy3246 It’s formerly known as Facebook. But the CEO (Mark Zuckerberg), tweeted that they’re ready for Aespa in the metaverse. SM was smart for going with a risky concept as it’s now being applied in the west which gives them good promotions.
the most shocking fact is that… they came into kpop when there was already a leader of 4th gen ggs. who would’ve thought they would be even more successful and popular than them? like when they first debuted i remember i clearly said that no matter how hard sm tries they should’ve debuted them a year earlier, that there was no way they would catch up to itzy… they didn’t only catch up but became even more popular and successful (no hate to itzy its just facts) like it’s so shocking to me and all that thanks to NEXT LEVEL!!! thanks to that queen aespa became hit makers and got viral in korea. i’m so so so so proud 🥲 they were the most hated once but now they’re the most popular, successful and leaders of 4th generation!!
They did a lot of hard work. They went to Coachella, SMCU ep.2 , new comeback, life's too short mv , la show case , constant comebacks , unique concepts, voices , visuals and the most important , that they are trying to get in international market
Isn't it with every SM group... first people hate them and said that they don't deserve to debut but later on they become the leader/kings/queenns of each generation
I got into them right after next level and was a bit confused but after some time I came to loveee their concept, experimental sound and the girls in general❣️i cannottt wait for the girls album!!
"even haters kept listening to their songs" I CANNOT, btw i love aespa sooooooo much and I think they deserve to be leading 4th gen. they're so talented and they're improving every stage, every comeback, every performance. actually, words cant describe how much i'm proud of them
I really love them. They are amazing. Also, I can't get enough of their music, I mean they are so catchy!
the first song i ever heard from them was “next level” and i actually laughed out loud at the beat drop. but you’re right, it eventually grew on me and i came to love their concept. cant wait for girls 💚
U mean "next level"?
@@akuhappy3246 yes next level haha
Aespa's music, concept and lore is just pure perfection!🔥💖💯 Honestly, you can't be successful without haters. I'm not saying it's right but that's what comes with being the best and at top of your game! Having been a huge fan since the day 'Black Mamba' dropped, i can definitely see why Aespa keeps breaking records left and right!
Aespa are the standard, they are unique and versatile. They have their own colors and personalities. They are truly leading this generation 🦋
been a kpop fan for 8 years and was about to quit stanning groups after EXO but RV, NCT aespa made me stay. Especially aespa which concept is making me anticipate in every comeback, more success for this group cause this talented girls deserve it
What did exo do lmao
loved them since debut 💕
As a my since debut it amazes me how much aespa has grown over these two years...
So happy for the girls..They are achieving so much at such a young age.
I think their futuristic concept is reason behind their sudden popularity..It attracts so much audience especially the younger ones...
It took me a second to fully understand the concept but now that I get it I think they have the best concept ever! They are so talented! I think it took them a while to connect to their Ae’s but now they feel more comfortable
Aespa deserve everything except hate. They aren't just visuals, they are truly TALENTED. All of them have a powerful voices and great dancers, and I think the reason behind their success is because they are humble and hardworking.
People need to leave Aespa alone for God's sake. The hate against them is getting out of hand.
Aespa have gotten this far on their talent alone, they are doing so well now, they are one of the best girl group and most loved by their fans.
You can see they are the most fun, genuine and likeable girls, there was never a reason to hate them. They are so deserving of all their success and popularity now. More power to them! xoxo
@@ldrago6031 when?
@@ldrago6031 hamster, why so angry?
@@ldrago6031 they never insulted anyone tho so what are you talking about
Even before predebut Aespa already received so much hate. They didn't even do anything in that time. I'm sure the main reason of most hates is something about being 'threatened"
@bella She mimic it not said. Things do come out of hand when you people (especially idiots) don't use the right term for it
I'm honestly so proud of aespa, they are the first girl group I liked from the beginning and really being a MY is a fine experience
Just went to their showcase in LA and I truly enjoyed their performance. just WOW
Im a kpop stan since 2007 and the fire that makes me love kpop died after 2ne1 disbandment. Aespa ignited again the flame of my dying love for kpop. I will do everything to support and protect them. Their concept is a revolutionary METAPHOR. You need your heart and mind to understand their concept.
SAME MY FAVORITE GROUPS ARE 2NE1 AND AESPA
Your analysis is always top tier and so well balanced. I'll listen to you discuss any kpop topic thank you so much for all of the work you've done so far!!
Edit: I'm a 2nd gen fan so it's so hard to learn all this new stuff and stay up to date but you're so through I feel like I'm back in the game 💕
I never regretted standing aespa MY forever
I'm not actually into girlgroups because I easily get bored, aespa is the first girl group that I anticipated to, and I can't help but to watch their contents.
no. winning rookie grandslam is having at least 5 rookie awards in major award shows but aespa manage to win 7 which is more than enough that is more than a rookie grandslam.
Indeed! Aespa got the highest rookie grandslam. Plus daesangs and bonsangs.
I didn’t like them at first but now they’re my favourite kpop group ever!!
I’ve always loved aespa since they debuted 😭
Thinking back about aespa's debut gives me chills , Black Mamba blew me away and I was like wow they are gonna slay the 4th generation and also the fact that they are the only girl group in SM that vibe with they just instantly clicked for me and joined my top 5 ult girl groups and also the teasers for the members were insane I fell in love with giselle first from the teasers then winter became my ult and now i am ot4
To be honest, their aesthetic is everything. Aespa wins the visual, both for the products and the idols.
I'm an SM stan so I was anticipating their debut since their debut announcement. When I watched their teasers for the Black Mamba, I know they'll be big because of the power this group holds. And they absolutely earn the success they have right now and they still deserve more success. Who's with me on supporting them forever?
Aespa's Next level got me into Kpop and now I love pretty much all the SM artists.
I've loved them since Black Mamba, and I'll ALWAYS love them. I don't understand the haters' thought process at all. Damn.
At first I wasn't that fond of aespa but when next level was released there was nothing else but aespa I could talk or listen too their music is like a gift to the world their just amazing people and idols and deserve all the success in the world
Being a fan since black mamba era the only thing I can say is I have been waiting for this 🥹
same ❤
Me too
A fan even before their debut heeere! Getting teary with the comments I see here. Please give love and support. They deserve this 💕
I'm very happy for Them (: they totally deserve everything that's happening, they're doing amazing things ❤️
To me, aespa captured me with their visuals in the beginning. After hearing Black Mamba, their vocals captured me. After Next Level, I became a MY 💙⭐️🌙🦋
Hates? They are part of that. I wondered why they know what happend to them in the future, they planned the concept, the what about what, song, the concept and stories was planned before debut, and after debuted the company keep using contorversy and trigged statement that could create hates to the group, so the group could have something to relate to the planned concept? So that they can gain whatswhat from their own doing and can continue the planned play victim concept?. The group is not even care about these they actually want the attention, the group is pretentious, and the concept is on the next level of manipulation, they even know and have specific reference about someting before it happened, they even create the way to make it happend so that they can continue the concept and story.
I'm laughing hard at 3:58 it's proof that next level was a REAL BOP LMAOOO
Aespa is the best everything is unique, their songs, visuals, vocals, concept...
It isn't only because SM is their agent since other big companies such as JYP, YG, HYBE also have 4th gen girl groups. The competitions are so tight in K-pop, especially in 4th gen.
I wasn’t that into asspa’s tech concept but their new song was sooo good! I’m not much of a fan but I hope the best for them and I feel horrible that they were criticized for their nationality or just being mistreated by their own staff.
Just because your not a fan doesn’t give you the right to hate on them. If you don’t like their concept or songs then just leave it that but don’t go on and say horrible things about the actual members.
Finally someone with some commen sense 👏
stanning them since their debut
To those people who doubted their concept and dragging them for copying some K-Pop group. Well hello? Comeback and say it again lol
remember, they came from SM who created the kpop concept . Big brain LEE SOO MAN 👌
Louder!
Perioddddd!!! They’re just mad their faves didn’t do it first or had the budget to invest in something as expensive as this!
To me they were great from the beginning and bever understood the hate they got. The inly thing that disappointed me was that they never perform lived. And then with the coachella festival they really showed a great live performance so NOW I can say they are pretty good all around.
the real answer: aespa has a really strong Chinese fanbase. most of the sales come from dedicated Chinese fans. they’re also doing great domestically and internationally, so remaining sales come from that. but it’s the fact that they have a secure position in the Chinese market that made them a million seller.
Its half true, I would say. It was only Karina's cbar raised 200k+ orders
@@lovingmyselfright ningning 220K pres order💀
i think most nctzens, at least on my twt timeline, showed their support for Aespa when their debut was announced. nctzens knew how it felt when some fans of their seniors hated on the neos.
some of exols too. the mature one. like me I only Stan exo but then aespa came, I became a hardcore fan now
Well deserved!!!! Feel the love from MYs aespa!!!
they deserve more success pls don't hate them
Deserved ! Aespa always surprise me in a good way. They are the trendsetters and soon will be ruling kpop 4th gen !
aespa is the first girl group that i like the most. starting from their debut i really like the concept, song, visual, talent, attitude and voice of all of them i really like... the spirit of aespa.i love you
It took me some time to buy into them but...I'm all in now. I love them.
Aespa is keeping me in kpop ..otherwise i have moved on
They're talented and hardworkers and that paid off
I never paid attention to them before but after Coachella i realized I had missed a lot on them,I love Aespa already
They got fame bcs of their talents, songs, concept and ofc not ever forgeting their amazing visuals
They are soooo talented they deserve this!!!! Congrats aespa!!!
I feel like in this generation every group who debut will find some hate at their early days but suddenly people will be like "omggg they're so talented".. Kpop fans like to take wrong impressions and jump into conclusions
No, people still hating on aespa bcs of being famous and successful.
Also for no stage presence and lip syncing
@@safz15 Girl, that’s been cleared after their showcase. Haters cannot say anything about their talents anymore 🤣🤦🏽♀️
Everyone used to say that their concept is cringe and asked SM to stop taking risks with their groups...but when I came to know about their concept, I somehow thought that this concept will make them big in future. They are on the way to prove haters wrong...their each songs sounds different and I decided to stan them after knowing the concept and after listening to black mamba ,next level aespa has become my fav kpop group ever.
Aespa was Destin for greatest since Black Mamba era I saw their talent & how Aespa will change Kpop by it core ...I said it many time s back then ...Let me tell u Aespa will rule Kpop for years to come ... statues will be made for them in Korea to honour them in new future ... Aespa will go in Kpop history as group that dominated the modern century ...they will even get more successful as they already are ...more brand deals add to there 20+ already ...Kpop will be form in Aespa image & rule 💜⭐🌛🦋

I wasn't into them at first but fell in love with them after "dreams come true," I stan them now. such a gorgeous song. I've preordered all 4 versions of their comeback now and I can't wait....
