This video documents the underdog success story of (G)I-DLE.
Coming from a non Big 4 background, (G)I-dle had a humble debut (only 260 copies sold and few MV views). But over the years, they managed to grow from a "nobody" group to a global music sensation, topping the charts. Despite many obstacles (such as member leaving, group hiatus, etc), they only grew stronger and stronger. In their recent songs, (such as "Tom boy", "Nxde", "Queencard"), they've also shown their ability to write empowering lyrics for women and have become the leading faces of new pop feminism. - Zábava
I'd also like to add that Shuhua biggest strength is really the things we don't see. Apparently behind-the-scenes she's the group's motivator/cheerleader/therapist. She knows how to encourage everyone when they are down or have hardly any energy. Soyeon has stated more than once she's based songs off of Shuhua's strength, and we've all seen how both Soojin and Yuqi have been super protective over her. So while that doesn't really translate to the album or screen, it makes the group stronger. It's sort of an invisible thankless job.
cube used to be bigger too. now they have only gi-dle. sorry but lightsum and nowadays can't carry cube if gidle leaves.
HyunA was the one carrying Cube before idle
@@ranran_dv Beast was the OG tho
@@ranran_dv And where is Hyuna now? Cube also not doing any better
@@Blue2024_rs WAS. Past tense
@@ranran_dv Yes, I know. To be more explicit, a lot of people day that Gidle should leave Cube, but looking at Hyuna, Cube might not be the biggest company, or the best towards its artiști, but they worked well with Soyeon and the girls. Tbh I hope they stay with Cube
Thank you for the video! Gidle single-handedly saved Cube from bankruptcy
They joined queendom around their Uh-Oh comeback
And I agree, I BURN is really an S-tier album. All songs sounds cohesive and great sonically-wise.
Its still their best record up to date imo
yea i burn has remained that way it’s so cohesive
The fact that it's just the members especially soyeon carrying their own group activities all by themselves
Cube is just taking them for granted , they don't know that their company will simply shut down if g idle ends
They are my favourite 4th gen k-pop group bts❤
It's a really good video. I appreciate the effort...
Only one thing to add, Fate became a sleeper hit after their performance at Lee Hyori show. It climbed the charts so fast after that. The fans had to beg cube for weeks to release the live clip as Shuhua was on a health hiatus at the time. And then with the help of the live clip they soon achieved their 4th PAK
and the fact that they only performed fate instead of wife because wife was banned from KBS the channel where Lee Hyori's show aired
Why was wife banned from kbs?
@@kindateiathe lyrics were “sexually explicit”
@@justtt.k22 wow uh. of all things i cant even remember anything like that there
I was so mad when So-yeon was eliminated from Produce 101 season 1 because she was my favorite out of all 101 participants, but I think it was a blessing in disguise because she was able to be in G-idle. 😊
So understimated that hurts... G-Idle is the only Kpop group I listen to, because it is unique
How do you know they are unique if they are the only group you listen to?
@@GleeChan People can have tried listening to other groups and then stopped afterwards. They are the only group I can listen to every day without getting bored because they have such a diverse discography.
same
Really need to listen to more groups. While Gidle is my 2nd favorite group, I at least listen to everyone and give them a chance
Yeah, exactly how I feel, literally 99% of K-pop songs sound all the same, it’s all generic. Idle is the only group I can listen to because unlike other K-pop groups, listening to one song isn’t like listening to 10 others. Idk how to explain but it basically goes with what I mean by “all the same and all generic”
(G)-IDLE remind me of a 4th gen 2NE1 because of their uniqueness and discography. I love both of them and I am a Neverland and Blackjack only. I love how they have new things to show and aren’t afraid of standing up for themselves. I never ever thought Blackpink was similar to 2NE1, I always felt it was IDLE.
I would also like to point out that the only reason gidle is this big is because they write and produce their own songs. Which means they are heavily involved in the creative processes of their comebacks. Soyeon mentioned that they were supposed to debut but cube wasnt giving them songs, which is why she decided to make one for the group (latata). If gidle didnt have the members (currently: soyeon, yuqi and minnie) who write their own songs, they would probably not be this successful today. I think cube is a lazy company who dont spend time on their groups. Not to mention its mismanagement issue. Its two other groups- lightsum and nowadays do not have comebacks at all, let alone successful ones.
G-idle are so successful because they are self-made. They are a miracle because Cube failed them every step of the way. They were set up for failure from the beginning. They had to reinvent and re-debut themselves. They are the creative forces behind their captivating music and concepts. They survived the Soojin scandal because of this. Every album is different and unique but is still G-idle, because it comes from them. They always surprise us. Their themes are powerful without being cliché. This is what defines G-idle, their authenticity.
gidle, to me, are the group leading kpop right now. i think when people name a group as the leaders of a generation or whatever, they think about charts and wins. but when i think about groups that are leading kpop, i think about groups that are making changes and taking risks, which is what i think gidle does with everything they do. this obviously causes them to get tons of hate, but i think that's a given because when we look back on groups that have had a big impact on the way kpop sounds/looks now days, (groups like brown eyed girls, f(X) etc..) we see that when they were active, not many understood or liked the music they were putting out or their concepts because they were different and strayed away from the norm. but now, we can look at kpop and see their impact all these years later. i can see people tens of years from now looking back at gidle's concepts, lyrics and music and seeing how significant it all was, even if people didn't really realize it at the time.
we all know this is (G)I-dle's agency which is Cube Entertainment. not the other way around, Cube Entertainment has a girl group called (G)I-dle. so in 2025, it will be critical for Cube's survival in Kpop industry depending on whether they can renew (G)I-dle's contracts or not. the gals will survive if they set their own agency or perhaps another agency. wait and see then.
I think it's also worth mentioning them gaining more attention when Soyeon and Miyeon joined kda.
Very insightful and accurate. Well done! You'll have to update this in less than a month. "i Sway" drops July 8th!
They never die, but they never rest too
what a perfect video.
Great 👍
I love all the things you mention about them. Cube management really stinks at PR, especially promoting their songs internationally. That's why (G)-idle has to do it themselves. They send the groups to a few variety shows. Barely promoting their groups like Pentagon and Lightsum.
That's why their growth is the most authentic for me in this fourth generation. They start from scratch, and they don't have the privilege of the big three. There is no hate toward other groups; they have their own shares of sacrifice.
I love idle so much. My favorite group
Good video. Appreciate the effort. But the biggest news here for me is how big JYP has grown, haha. Didn't realize they had caught up to SM and left YG behind. I remember JYP being similar in size to YG behind SM. Guess, JYP's whole business restructure around 10 years ago worked
After TWICE they rose fast, and then they had Stray kids too.
I enjoyed this essay, you did a great job. I love gidle collectively as a group and individually as each member has their own unique talent and personality 💎💎💎💎💎
soyeon is just god tier. her skills are comparable to g-dragon. dont be suprised if she becomes the top girl boss of kpop in the future. yuqi and minnie are my favorites too.
This is why i don't feel bad by the views cause it takes a lot of resources to grow those things.
This video was much needed. Thank you ❤❤🎉🎉🎉. Also gidle already topped brand reputation in 2018 for 2 months which is their debut year
I have never been so proud of 6 people who I have never met. They deserve every win they get. I love them
This video explains exactly why i love Gidle
im so impressed how you analyzed their whole career with a 12 minute video you're amazing😭 im looking forward to your next video!!
yuqi popularity in china and s.korea is BIG giving her personality and become member in keep running china give big impact save her group
Thank you for making this video, it summarized each "arc" of their career while analyzing and explaining their musical growth quite well!
Really good vid of this superb group, good job!
Frozen received a PAK 😂
you kinda look like lee young ji undercover 🤣
Thank you for this video - every one needs to know GIDLE
True
So thank you!❤
Wow! im hoping to see more videos from you, the quality of the video is so good and well presented, and thank you for talking about Gidle
Thank you for this video! It really puts into perspective how CRAZY their success is
It is worth mentioning that (G)Idle, BTS, IVE, and Twice all have 4 PAKs.
Big Bang has 7.
IU… has 22. Yep… 22.
Great video! I-DLE deserves such good analysis! 👏 Thank you!
the amount of effort you put into this so cool
Thank you so much for this amazing video, they are literally my ultimate group ❤

Gi-dle❤❤
thank you
(G)I-DLE 🫶🌹❤️🔥
Like many folks, when I-dle debuted, their fresh sound seems to be the turning of the new generation. On reflection, however, it seems now that they were really the last of the 3rd generation, the end of companies granting more freedom and creative input to the members, an experiment that began with Mamamoo. From that point of view, its too early to say we've turned from 4th to 5th Gen, 4th has some time to play out yet. That's my opinion, anyway...
great
Idle is really underrated
Album I Never Die It was Idle's last bet. If they fail, the band will probably disband. Because they were heavily attacked by netizens when Soojin was accused Even though there is no evidence that she actually did anything wrong.
Wonderful video, thank you for your explanations, just something to comment, Fate did not rise in the charts after the live clip, it was already among the first places before it was released. 😊
Nice hat! 😆
Yeah idle not gidle😂
Gidle is amazing.
Such amazing talents
Soyeon is a genius
Yuqi has tremendous untapped talent
Minnie is a flawless gem
Miyeon has amazing vocal range
Shuhua ......people like her. I dont mean to be rude....but if the group lost Shuhua and was only 4 members, you'd never know the difference.
Sweet girl and all but she doesn't bring as much as the other 4.
Im gonna get so much hate for just writing that.
My point is, they are a very underrated group. They can do better than CUBE. The girls pay for half their videos and promotions themselves.
Its really bad.
Shuhua contributes by her presence not talent she can Handle enough to fit as an idol Other than singing and dancing she Uses her sass and entertaining attitude on shows
If you take her out you would have way less moments to laugh and Exposure to the group since like they are missing the spice
Well done.
But I like saying Giddle lol!!!
Actually the underdogs of 4th gen are Billlie & cignature
👍

Is dreamcatcher company even smaller?
Yes definitely, tiny compared to even cube. They are growing though and are bigger than others!
Great video, but why the paper bag over your head? If you are a kpop fan, you should be proud of it. I told my friends I like Kpop and I stand by my decision. Be proud of your interests!
There are a lot of reasons to hide your identity in public, don't assume things by yourself man.
