aespa will "surpass" Blackpink, TWICE in the future?

Until now, the achievements that aespa has achieved are undisputed. Although the group has not been established for a long time, however, they own records that sometimes seniors like TWICE and Blackpink have not been able to set.

After the controversial debut, they returned with the product "Next Level" and set a series of remarkable records, including the Daesang Song Of The Year award from the Korean Music Awards and the Record Of The Year award from the Melon Music Awards. They are the second group after senior Miss A to win both the Rookie of the Year award and the Daesang award.

After that, aespa caused a fever when releasing the mini-album Savage. The song made them the first Gen4 group to achieve a Realtime All-kill. The mini album Savage also helped them become the first Gen4 group and the third group to sell 700,000 copies with only one album.

Most recently, they returned with the product Girls. The record that this album brings is more than 1.6 million pre-orders. This is also the album with the highest pre-orders among Kpop girl groups, surpassing Blackpink's The Album.

Most recently, they hit the milestone of 1 million album copies on Hanteo in less than a week of release and are the first Kpop girl group to establish this achievement.

However, it is too early to say aespa surpasses Blackpink or TWICE. Because in addition to their outstanding achievements, their music is always controversial. In particular, Girls' products were judged not to be as good as previous products.

In addition, Blackpink and TWICE already have a strong foothold in the Kpop music industry, which is evidenced by their dedication over the years. What aespa is lacking is experience. However, in the future, aespa may go even further. They are expected to be the most prominent Gen4 group.

aespa consists of 4 members Karina, Giselle, Winter and Ningning. Since its launch in 2020, aespa has surpassed many records and achieved important achievements. While the whole world is facing Covid-19, aespa is still the group that has achieved success, despite the difficulties during the pandemic.

No matter who "talks about it", aespa is still performing well and closing a successful year of operation with its own distinctive and bold personality.

K-pop's concept of a virtual member is not "untouchable"

On November 17, 2020, the group that SM has cherished for a long time officially debuted with Black Mamba. In addition to the outstanding reputation of one of the big boys in BIG 3, aespa also received the attention of a large audience before because of the unprecedented concept in Kpop history - the virtual member concept.

The audience is so used to repetitive images in Kpop, girl groups go around with cute concepts, school uniforms, chic, sexy or girl crush, while boy groups often aim for a strong, energetic image. action, bad boy, army... Maybe this group will resonate and become more popular than the other.

Therefore, the appearance of a new concept - the concept of "real and virtual world avatar" cannot help but attract the attention of the public. As a creative company, SM always "releases" their own unique group models: f(x) with multi-style, EXO from another planet with special superpowers, Red Velvet with mysterious charm, magic, or a multi-unit NCT,... But the "ahead of time" concept for aespa can be considered the most risky move of this entertainment giant.

Although there are many mixed opinions not only about the new concept or the graphic quality of the characters is quite "alum", but this is also a unique point that helps aespa begin to be known more. The group follows a brand new and unique concept of Kpop, objectively speaking, it is very modern and suitable for the current digital age. As a pioneer, this image of aespa will surely leave a strong impression on the audience.

Debut with the visual lineup was disappointing because of "deviation from SM", going upstream, causing fans to "turn the car around" at the same time.

SM is famous for being a big flower garden in Kpop when possessing a high-class and quality visual lineup through each generation such as Eugene (SES), YoonA - Taeyeon (SNSD), Krystal - Sulli (f(x)), Irene - Joy ( Red Velvet)... When the aespa lineup was officially announced, the audience couldn't help but be surprised with 4 rookie girls with the "AI" shape, which is different from the traditional SM goddess standard.

Not only surprised, netizens are also not very "satisfied" with this visual set. Winter is the member who receives the least negative comments about her appearance. Having just debuted, NingNing was considered a "hole" in her body because her body was a bit "massive" and her face lacked elegance. Karina, who has the name "idol market", is also entangled in many plastic surgery controversies because of her strangely stiff face. Worse, netizens called Giselle the ugliest idol in SM history because she was drowned by her makeup and hairstyle.

Through each comeback, the 4 girls' visuals have become more and more noticeable. This is in large part due to SM's efforts to take care of domestic chickens when it comes to finding the right style for each member.
