linktr.ee/planetminjae For anyone wondering, I didnt include GWSN in the updated version because I didn't want to include disbanded groups (produce groups excluded). If they were in this video they'd probably be ranked around 6th/7th
@JO-qn8gy He (and most) probably considers them 5th gen, (I’m still in denial that gen5 is here just yet but majority rules) the AAA subunit was in 2022 but Rising was the group debut in 2023.
after supernova and armageddon, aespa has, in my opinion, become *the* quintessential 4th gen group. i may even go far as to say they're running the kpop scene at the moment! their career has been so amazingly consistent from start to finish (yes even girls is a 9/10 comeback idc) and with their current trajectory, they're seriously becoming one of the greats in kpop. im really looking forward on how their next few comebacks are gonna look like because i thought drama was gonna be their peak but i was proven wrong TWICE after that lmao
So no, I don't really agree with you, because if before we could say that the 4th generation was ruled by G-idle and Itzy. Today, 4 groups rule this scene in a balanced way (Itzy, G-idle, Ive and Aespa). On the other hand, I'd say there's been an explosion in the 4th generation, regardless of agency size or popularity.
Aespa, Loona and IVE being top 3 is so honest, so real, so TRUE. I'm surprised by how much Ive worked on just putting out consistent good music winning me over comeback after comeback. Loona is my ult and Aespa is murdering the game rn.
So happy someone is mentioning Rocket Punch, one of my favourite discographies (can't say I know much about the members themselves)! Their music is seriously underrated.
@@myra0224 just because I see a CSR comment I'd like to recommend everyone to check out their new (I think they classified it as a) single with 2 songs and if you enjoy it, especially the b-side then maybe the rest of their songs since they all have a very similar and really good vibe and the members are incredible
My girls aespa! They're truly at their best when tackling a more bonkers sound (Next Level, Supernova, Spicy, Yeppi Yeppi). While I'm not a big fan of Armageddon and truly hope they won't explore that sound any further, the amazing Supernova (with that *INSANE* production) more than makes up for it and singlehandedly marks this era as my favourite aespa era. Easily my favourite newer gen girl group.
I completely agree 💀 any tracks like Armageddon need to STAY in the vault. The play on words they do in some of the song is cute but the way the bridges/prechoruses/verses? Idk the correct terminology drag the track down unbearably. And it wasn’t like it was slowing down with a purpose either. It kinda felt a little lazy if anything. Anyways but yes totally agree supernova is amazing so for us that can be the title track 😂
@@PlanetMinjae I think Armageddon is simply not good songcraft. It is well-performed, sure (I mean this is aespa we're talking about), but really there’s only so much you can do with that damned droning chorus and grating instrumental.
In my opinion , Aespa has been quite consistent with their songs since debut. I've loved everything they put out. I can't even explain why i love certain songs from them. My top 3 aespa songs : 1.Savage. 2.Lucid dream/Illusion 3. Thirsty
I’m so glad that Loona (ARTMS, Loossemble Chuu and Yves) have still been doing so well There is only like a handful of Loona songs I’m not a fan of, but they are still incredible And post BBC they are getting only better and better🥹
Fifty fifty had so much potential and they were honestly my favorite 4th gen group.I just literally loved everything about them.The members were so freaking talented ,Aran has probably one of the best tones in kpop (my opinion).It’s such a shame that it had to come to an end so quickly.I don’t care about the members that are going to replace them on September tbh .Im definitely boycotting
Unfortunately, boycotting attrakt won't bring ot4 back... I feel like the boycott has become more of a coping strategy for hunnies, it's not working, and it doesn't have a clear goal. All a successful boycott to the relaunch would do is damage Keena and the poor hopefuls. I think it's best just let it rest. However, i do maintain the stance that the Givers, in the end, are who destroyed fifty-fifty, and it's not as simple as just mistreatment from attrakts end.
@@skittychuu It's important to acknowledge that Keena herself decided to rejoin the group. If you genuinely want to boycott someone, you must do it regardless of the potential hurt it might cause the members. I never claimed it would bring back OT4, and many other Fifty Fifty fans feel the same. International fans need to be as determined as Koreans when boycotting a group. I don't dislike Keena or any of the new members, but if we truly want to make a difference, we must stop giving these companies opportunities. The international market is crucial for smaller groups, which is why a boycott could be very effective. Currently, it doesn't seem as impactful since the group hasn't had a comeback since the scandal. I refuse to support the harmful actions of another company.
Idc what anybody says, anyone who hates sneakers does, in fact, hate fun. Yall dont know how to enjoy kpop as kpop anymore, sneakers and itzy hate train is so forced its insane. Born to be, mr vampire, and untouchable have been permanently housed in my playlist since release and i wont stand a word against my 5 queens (i miss u i love u lia)
i love fun.. i listen to things like hmph by chocome/wjsn, catallena by orange caramel, and fun by fromis_9.. i just cant with sneakers 😭 its just NAWT for me. i have to skip.. but anways stream algorithm 🤫🧏♀️
I agree Aespa has an amaizng music consistently and keeps getting better with each release, even if it’s a bit different from the last, the feeling I get from listen to Aespa music hasn’t gone away to flickered out Loona is, has and will always be my ults! Their music is some of the best discography K-pop has to offer, there is so much to explore, there never a dull moment in LOONA’s music and if people enjoy deep complex lore storytelling+ Lost Loona Media then that’s just bonus points cause they are so mysterious yet so open lol😂

i'll defend O.O and tank until the day i die, but i understand why people are more attracted to their newer projects, like LMLT and run for roses. i think their discography is very fun ^^
I genuinely mean this when I say I love all of NMIXX song's. For me they are the #1 girl group of 4th gen with the only thing their lacking being popularity and "trendy" music. But the girls are so talented and I love their personalities and Im obsessed with their songs and performance! I saw them live on their Nice to Mixx You Tour and they are even better in person.
It’s crazy if you think about it cause all the members and units debuted in 3rd gen individually But as a full group of 12 they count as a 4th gen group And now they all count as 5th gen HeeJin has debuted the Most times Solo debut 2016 Loona 1/3 Unit Debut in 2017 These count for 3rd gen She debut in Loona as a whole on 2018 (4th Gen) She also debuted in the survival show Girls Revervse and was an Offical member of Feverse Then re-debuted as a Solist in 2023 (if that still counts as 4th?) Then with ARTMS in 2024 now in 5th gen So she technically debuted 6 different times (talk about a powerhouse lol) Yeojin debuted the least, the rest of the girls have about 4 under their belt (from Solos, to Units, to OT12 to Re-debut as a new group/ soloist) Yeojin sits at 3 cause she didn’t debut in any loona unit, so that only leaves her with 3 (solo, OT12 Debut and Loossemble)
dude love ur videos fr. i’ve moved away from kpop a little bit recently but still always come to your videos. i think i mostly agree with this. ur taste is incredible🤞🤞🤍!
I'm just glad to see XG in here. They're the best for me and I am not a kpop fan so I understand if Kpop fans ranking wouldn't include them at all. But to see them being appreciated at all makes me happy.
Accendio is great. IVE are in my semi-ults, their music is so amazing! Hypnosis is one of my favorite songs of last year! Baddie was a bit of a miss but Either Way almost made me cry. This new EP is pretty good too. Blue Heart is fun.
i could not agree more with your opinion on blackswan, i absolutely adore the group but their company is literally their biggest opp, with the cancelation of their Japan fanmeet because of a filming conflict and than the fact that there isn't even a schedule for their comeback that was supposedly going to be in june (i didn't believe for a second that its actually gonna happen this month) its a miracle that the company hasn't lost the girls more fans. its so upsetting cause blackswan really could be such a big thing if they were just managed right
Yess agreed with this bc nmixx, itzy and ive was rlly appreciated!!! Esp ive like their whole albums are no skip and like their discography is soo good?? Been stanning them still love dive and love them!!! Pls i think ill be def stanning nmixx and itzy now😭
FR like rn for me my fav 4th gen gg are AESPA , IVE and , (G)I-DLE , they are just soo good the visuals of concepts , music, and everything these 3 groups have made me fall inlove with them🗣️
I’m gonna be honest, I lowkey love kep1er’s title tracks. I can admit that they feel very underproduced compared to other groups, but why do I still love their music so much HAHHA. I actually adored we fresh when it came out and considered it their best, and wa da da is such a memorable song to me like I always forget how much I like it
thank you for giving kep1er a chance!!! kpop stans are quick to claim that they make bad music (what about forming an opinion by yourself without believing a kep1er hater on twitter) but I think that they are very consistent in terms of music quality, vocals, dance and performances!
kpop stans need to start paying more attention to kep1er, their songs are so good! it’s honestly so sad how their company doesn’t promote them well, all the members r so so talented & they deserve so much more. we’ll miss u mashiro & yeseo 💗
Gasped at billlie dropping from 1st to 11th like are we listening to the same music….😭😭 but youre so right about everything else all the post BBC loona music is incredible. And HOT AIR BALLOON!!!! SO TRUE!!!!!
G-Idle is at least #2 just for the simple fact not only do they write most of their music, but they're all hits. Totally agree with Aespa at #1 right now. I also believe Nmixx should be higher
If you don’t mind here’s my ranking of my top faves ^^ 1. Loona (and all its current New lineups lol) 2. Aespa 3. Fromis_9 4. StayC 5.Kep1er 6. Nmixx 7. (G)-idle 8. Itzy 9. IVE 10. Wooah
Woow I disagree soooo muhh with something you said in this video You said you get bored when artists stick with such a consistent sound For me it's the opposite I don't care about versatility at all! Like okay make a few b sides that are maybe a different style but I want a consistent concept in at least 90% of the songs and to me the biggest problem in kpop is trend following that's why my favorite groups are the ones that don't do it as much Btw I totally respect your opinion EDIT: I'm commenting while watching and while I also really like NMIXX I disagree w everything y said about them 😂(nothing wrong with that) I love 0.0 and dice and I hated love me like this, roller coaster and party 0 clock but yeah Soñar and Dash were really good
I mostly agree with this opinion of yours !! just keeping a consistent concept for at least 3 comebacks is great, as it allows artists to build an image and embody the overall sound to the best of their ability
Same I hate groups that keep flip flopping with every trend that graces the kpop space, it’s feels not genuine and like they’re not secure in their sound as artists. Okay hate is a strong word, I just don’t listen to them lol.
Ok you deserve an upvote even just because you mentioned how AMAZING is the "Checkmate" mini album by Itzy. Even if I completely hated Sneakers (but I don't, actually, I think it's fun enough), those 5 b-sides one after another would be enough to love the album because it is such an experience, it's one of my favourite K-pop EPs ever.
I do feel like this video should maybe have been called 'ranking 4th gen girl group discographies' because I was expecting more of a discussion of the groups as a whole, with the members' talents and group concepts being included. But still a very good video regardless 👍
1. I'll defend Ven Para any time, anywhere. 2. Fromis ranking so high based mostly on being inoffensive is a bit weird to me. 3. Sadly, you're right about Everglow. I blame Yuehua for basically not caring.4
I am an orbit at heart and all, but my spotify stats don't lie - ive has to be one of my favorite groups of all time, and fave as of now. Like right now i'm just listening to a playlist with their entire discography and there are no skips (except for shine with me, i physically can't stand this song) and they are sooooo good... like even a pepsi ad was on repeat for months.. and for my second fave it probably has to be aespa.. (and all of my post loona girlies
StayC i just started stanning after listening to them casually since debut for some reason I only recently started stanning, but I fully believe StayC have the most flawless 4th gen disogrophy. Like not even subjectively but also looking at how every single title track of their has gone viral and popped off. Even thought they arent my ults rn they are amazing and more ppl need to get into them. Their personalities are top tier as well.
I watch these rankings just for fun... But in my opinion Nmixx will always be #1 gg of recent kpop gens. And i think Talent must be taken into account as well. But even apart from that.. contrarty to herd mentality... their music is actually really good! You'll get nmixx music only if you're able to overlook the hate train. Then you'll realise how amazing they actually are. 🥺
Really fun to see an update on this! I'll have to go back to the earlier video to compare what i wrote in my comment back then, but for now my ranking would be 1. Purple Kiss (i actually liked their more recent music less, they still haven't topped Zombie era for me, though Sweet Juice came pretty close) 2. (G)I-DLE (purely based on title tracks they'd be first, but i have to admit there's barely any b-sides i listen to regularly) 3. IVE (I've been obsessed with Accendio too!) 4. Itzy, Aespa, Everglow, StayC, Billlie, Iz*one (really like some of their songs)
so real for the stayc comments !!! their bsides always hit and their titles are amazing! remember to stream their full album metamorphic with a full 14 songs that are completely new and a tt with a different genre !!!!
My favourite group is gidle. Also you didn´t mention it but they also do a lot for kpop as well being the first successful self produced g. Soyeon is the first female idol to win both best producer and song writing. The only other prominent producer was IU. Also gidle is lgbtq+ friendly (oh my god, dahlia) and having songs with deep and important messages such as omg, nxde, tomboy, lion, allergy - queencard.
also the loona praise purrrr it's insane how this is one of the few post-disbandment groups that have all really good music like their soloists are slaying, their groups are slaying?? it's ridiculous also artms mayhaps released aoty (birth was such a great concept we need more videos praising it)
yess the nmixx praise is so validated, their recent releases have been so good, i really love how much justice these releases to do their extremely talented lineup of members, im so glad to see this reflected in the ktube communty
Purple kiss discography is one of the best imo but rbw keeps making the TT the second best or even the worse track on their album… for example pretty psycho>memem Icsd>nerdy(nerdy is good but can’t stop dreaming is soo good) bitter sweet/heart attack>> BBB. Those r only son of the song that I feel should’ve been the TT of their respective albums.
anyone who thinks weeekly fell off after after school should listen to their new title track lights on from the album bliss! it's honestly the song of the summer, its so good! the bsides page and twenties are great too
Maybe it's toxic but I just don't consider produce groups to be real groups. Not in the sense that they're somehow more manufactured, I mean what group isn't "formed" on a rigged reality show these days. But like a year of promotions just isn't a long time for me now that I'm getting older. They're gone before I know they exist, it's like if someone's favorite group was super m... I just straight up don't think that's valid
Loona and Aespa are my two ult groups so I'm glad to see them ranked so high on the list!! I'm glad we have similar tastes. They are 2 of my 3 ults, the other being XG. If there was one thing I could change about the lost, I would put them higher.
seeing my two ults (gidle and loona) in top 5 really made me happy and you not bashing gidle for everything under the sun also made me happy because lots of ktubers nowadays just hate on gidle for anything 😭😭 thank you planet minjae 🫶🏽

It’s crazy if you think about it cause all the members and units debuted in 3rd gen individually
But as a full group of 12 they count as a 4th gen group
And now they all count as 5th gen
HeeJin has debuted the Most times
Solo debut 2016
Loona 1/3 Unit Debut in 2017
These count for 3rd gen
She debut in Loona as a whole on 2018 (4th Gen)
She also debuted in the survival show Girls Revervse and was an Offical member of Feverse
Then re-debuted as a Solist in 2023 (if that still counts as 4th?)
Then with ARTMS in 2024 now in 5th gen
So she technically debuted 6 different times (talk about a powerhouse lol)
Yeojin debuted the least, the rest of the girls have about 4 under their belt (from Solos, to Units, to OT12 to Re-debut as a new group/ soloist) Yeojin sits at 3 cause she didn’t debut in any loona unit, so that only leaves her with 3 (solo, OT12 Debut and Loossemble)

Yess agreed with this bc nmixx, itzy and ive was rlly appreciated!!! Esp ive like their whole albums are no skip and like their discography is soo good?? Been stanning them still love dive and love them!!!
Pls i think ill be def stanning nmixx and itzy now😭
Billlie at 11. Is this lore?
I understand that Everglow has an outdated sound, but I still eat it up hah
FR like rn for me my fav 4th gen gg are AESPA , IVE and , (G)I-DLE , they are just soo good the visuals of concepts , music, and everything these 3 groups have made me fall inlove with them🗣️
Hot air balloon is such a feel good song and I'm so happy it's also one of your favorites! I understood it from the first listen lol
taste taste taste taste taste
20:51 im crying what happened to baddie and the ive mine album 😭😭
VERY GOOD TOO I JUST FORGOT TO MENTION
I’m gonna be honest, I lowkey love kep1er’s title tracks. I can admit that they feel very underproduced compared to other groups, but why do I still love their music so much HAHHA. I actually adored we fresh when it came out and considered it their best, and wa da da is such a memorable song to me like I always forget how much I like it
thank you for giving kep1er a chance!!! kpop stans are quick to claim that they make bad music (what about forming an opinion by yourself without believing a kep1er hater on twitter) but I think that they are very consistent in terms of music quality, vocals, dance and performances!
the loona girls literally always carry and it’s even more evident now that they’re in new projects and STILL carrying 🥹
Sneakers not childish but Bubble is? Huh haha
tank is one of the best kpop songs ever made imo. i'm glad you started enjoying their songs since lmlt tho!
also i love the itzy appreciation
kpop stans need to start paying more attention to kep1er, their songs are so good! it’s honestly so sad how their company doesn’t promote them well, all the members r so so talented & they deserve so much more. we’ll miss u mashiro & yeseo 💗
Sorta agree with the ranking except for IZ*ONE, who I think is at least top 5 for me. Also the hot take on HOT AIR BALLOON is so reallllll!!!
:3 exactlyyy
Gasped at billlie dropping from 1st to 11th like are we listening to the same music….😭😭 but youre so right about everything else all the post BBC loona music is incredible. And HOT AIR BALLOON!!!! SO TRUE!!!!!
im so sorryryyyyyywrryyry
the giddy EP was one of my albums of the year last year !!!
G-Idle is at least #2 just for the simple fact not only do they write most of their music, but they're all hits. Totally agree with Aespa at #1 right now. I also believe Nmixx should be higher
I don’t care if Purple Kiss dropped im so happy they are on this list🎉🎉🎉
loona are somehow my favorite 3rd, 4th and 5th gen group
the hypnosis and lips shoutout… a real dive
PROUD KEP1IAN ‼️‼️
i cant even count the amount of times my jaw dropped during this

6. Nmixx
7. (G)-idle

I’m really really hoping that Blackswan comeback will blow up tho
i love the loona appreciation, i feel like most kpop youtubers always overlook them 😭💖
Woow I disagree soooo muhh with something you said in this video
You said you get bored when artists stick with such a consistent sound
For me it's the opposite I don't care about versatility at all! Like okay make a few b sides that are maybe a different style but I want a consistent concept in at least 90% of the songs and to me the biggest problem in kpop is trend following that's why my favorite groups are the ones that don't do it as much
Btw I totally respect your opinion
EDIT: I'm commenting while watching and while I also really like NMIXX I disagree w everything y said about them 😂(nothing wrong with that) I love 0.0 and dice and I hated love me like this, roller coaster and party 0 clock but yeah Soñar and Dash were really good
I mostly agree with this opinion of yours !! just keeping a consistent concept for at least 3 comebacks is great, as it allows artists to build an image and embody the overall sound to the best of their ability
For ITZY : I liked the untouchable EP a lot and my favorite album off all 4 gen is crazy in love even though they're not even In my top 5
Aespa is my ult group since their debut ❤
Same I hate groups that keep flip flopping with every trend that graces the kpop space, it’s feels not genuine and like they’re not secure in their sound as artists.
Okay hate is a strong word, I just don’t listen to them lol.
Thank you for reminding me of Hot Air Balloon. Imma go get addicted to it again
not liking maniac should be a crime :c
Ok you deserve an upvote even just because you mentioned how AMAZING is the "Checkmate" mini album by Itzy. Even if I completely hated Sneakers (but I don't, actually, I think it's fun enough), those 5 b-sides one after another would be enough to love the album because it is such an experience, it's one of my favourite K-pop EPs ever.
keep an eye on stayc!! their first full album comes out july 1st and it has 14 tracks
I do feel like this video should maybe have been called 'ranking 4th gen girl group discographies' because I was expecting more of a discussion of the groups as a whole, with the members' talents and group concepts being included. But still a very good video regardless 👍
1. I'll defend Ven Para any time, anywhere. 2. Fromis ranking so high based mostly on being inoffensive is a bit weird to me. 3. Sadly, you're right about Everglow. I blame Yuehua for basically not caring.4
Finally another Hot Air Balloon enthusiast 🎉 most of this ranking was really similar to what I personally think it was kinda crazy
I am an orbit at heart and all, but my spotify stats don't lie - ive has to be one of my favorite groups of all time, and fave as of now. Like right now i'm just listening to a playlist with their entire discography and there are no skips (except for shine with me, i physically can't stand this song) and they are sooooo good... like even a pepsi ad was on repeat for months.. and for my second fave it probably has to be aespa.. (and all of my post loona girlies
StayC i just started stanning after listening to them casually since debut for some reason I only recently started stanning, but I fully believe StayC have the most flawless 4th gen disogrophy. Like not even subjectively but also looking at how every single title track of their has gone viral and popped off. Even thought they arent my ults rn they are amazing and more ppl need to get into them. Their personalities are top tier as well.
Izone was the biggest surprise
Blackswan
I watch these rankings just for fun...
But in my opinion Nmixx will always be #1 gg of recent kpop gens. And i think Talent must be taken into account as well.
But even apart from that.. contrarty to herd mentality... their music is actually really good!
You'll get nmixx music only if you're able to overlook the hate train. Then you'll realise how amazing they actually are. 🥺
Really fun to see an update on this! I'll have to go back to the earlier video to compare what i wrote in my comment back then, but for now my ranking would be
1. Purple Kiss (i actually liked their more recent music less, they still haven't topped Zombie era for me, though Sweet Juice came pretty close)
2. (G)I-DLE (purely based on title tracks they'd be first, but i have to admit there's barely any b-sides i listen to regularly)
3. IVE (I've been obsessed with Accendio too!)
4. Itzy, Aespa, Everglow, StayC, Billlie, Iz*one (really like some of their songs)
so real for the stayc comments !!! their bsides always hit and their titles are amazing! remember to stream their full album metamorphic with a full 14 songs that are completely new and a tt with a different genre !!!!
BLACKSWAN deserves higher after their next cb❤
My new biggest flex is that my ults are aespa, Ive, itzy and (G)-idle (I’m a baby orbit so I see that as a win)
My favourite group is gidle.
Also you didn´t mention it but they also do a lot for kpop as well being the first successful self produced g. Soyeon is the first female idol to win both best producer and song writing. The only other prominent producer was IU. Also gidle is lgbtq+ friendly (oh my god, dahlia) and having songs with deep and important messages such as omg, nxde, tomboy, lion, allergy - queencard.
Loving the Itzy support
i was surprised to see purple kiss lower because i got introduced to them by this channel
also the loona praise purrrr it's insane how this is one of the few post-disbandment groups that have all really good music like their soloists are slaying, their groups are slaying?? it's ridiculous also artms mayhaps released aoty (birth was such a great concept we need more videos praising it)
yess the nmixx praise is so validated, their recent releases have been so good, i really love how much justice these releases to do their extremely talented lineup of members, im so glad to see this reflected in the ktube communty
Purple kiss discography is one of the best imo but rbw keeps making the TT the second best or even the worse track on their album… for example pretty psycho>memem Icsd>nerdy(nerdy is good but can’t stop dreaming is soo good) bitter sweet/heart attack>> BBB. Those r only son of the song that I feel should’ve been the TT of their respective albums.
My ranking:
1. Aespa
2. Everglow
3. (G)i-dle
4. Le sserafim
5. Ive
i’m so happy IVE is finally getting the praise they deserve, they hate these girls got for a long while was soo heartbreaking as a DIVE. we did it 🥹🤍
Omg..i agree so strongly with your take on Kepler. Personally, Happy Ending and Love on Lock redeemed their entire discog for me 😭
Not you saying that IVE's last two comebacks are I AM and Heya 😭. Did we forget about the 10/10 that is Baddie?
Nah Baddie was good but it overshadowed the three b-sides that are for sure 10/10. Payback deserved better
All songs from that EP are title track worthy🙂↕️
OH. UM. WELL. UM. WELL. UH. sorta. i actually like baddie though LOL
@@yn.7776 It’s one of my favourite kpop mini albums ever
anyone who thinks weeekly fell off after after school should listen to their new title track lights on from the album bliss! it's honestly the song of the summer, its so good! the bsides page and twenties are great too
Does your comments towards Everglow apply to Zombie era as well or only to Slay era ?
Maybe it's toxic but I just don't consider produce groups to be real groups. Not in the sense that they're somehow more manufactured, I mean what group isn't "formed" on a rigged reality show these days. But like a year of promotions just isn't a long time for me now that I'm getting older. They're gone before I know they exist, it's like if someone's favorite group was super m... I just straight up don't think that's valid
It’s so sad that Everglow is so low in the list
I love Maniac.
I'm so happy to see sm1 else love Puppet Show! It's soooooo good!
LOONA BEING SECOND IS SO REAL 😭😭 THEIR MUSIC IS SO PERFECT I WOULD EVEN SAY THEY ARE A CLOSE FIRST 😝😝
Praying that NMIXX is somewhere in the top 7 🙏🙏
now do gen 4 boy groups (if u dont want to ofc not but i would love to see it :) )
FINALLY SOMEONE WHO AGREES ON CHECKMATE BEING A FANTASTIC PROJECT!! their best ep by FAR and their recent music is so so good 💕💕💕
the hot air balloon appreciation
I am just happy to see Weeekly in the list. The first two EPs are my favorite, I can recommend A+ of their newest EP.
How air ballon and don’t blink are so good likeeeeee
Love seeing another video from you!! I really enjoy hearing your opinions because I never know what you are going to say (I mean that as a good thing)
LOONA will forever be my ult gg
Pls do Boy groups next
Not the iz*one slander 😭 imo Bloom*iz has no skips. But I'm just being a baby
Nah, IZ*ONE has an amazing discography. That was the only part of this ranking that didn't make sense lol.
Loona and Aespa are my two ult groups so I'm glad to see them ranked so high on the list!! I'm glad we have similar tastes. They are 2 of my 3 ults, the other being XG. If there was one thing I could change about the lost, I would put them higher.
Wow I really thought the same, I guess we have quite similar taste :)
seeing my two ults (gidle and loona) in top 5 really made me happy and you not bashing gidle for everything under the sun also made me happy because lots of ktubers nowadays just hate on gidle for anything 😭😭 thank you planet minjae 🫶🏽
Oh, thank god 😭 I thought i was weird for liking Hot Air Balloon, so nuch
