BABYMONSTER is at the bottom of the chart, aespa "kicks out" all their seniors and stands comfortably at the top

The latest ranking of the most valuable and famous Kpop artists in August surprised everyone with an unbelievable shake-up in their positions. Accordingly, girl group BabyMonster was at the bottom of the list, while aespa was at the top.

The Korea Brand Reputation Research Institute has released the brand value rankings of singers for August, based on big data analysis.

From July 24 to August 24, the institute analyzed big data of singers who are promoting in areas including consumer participation, media activities, communication, and community activities. Based on the analysis, the number one singer in terms of brand value this month is aespa, with a brand value score of 7,073,467.

Next, trot singer Lim Young Woong scored a value of 6,031,267 in second place, while Seventeen took third place with a score of 3,959,166.

The top 30 singers on the brand reputation rankings for August were: aespa, Lim Young Woong, Seventeen, IVE, IU, Blackpink, Apink's Eunji, RIIZE, DAY6, BTS, TWICE, (G)I-DLE, TWS, Psy, Young Tak, NCT, Taeyeon, Jay Park, Lee Young Ji.

Also featured: Jannabi, BIBI, Lee Chan Won, Jang Yoon Jung, Sung Si Kyung, Kang Daniel, ILLIT, LE SSERAFIM, Younha, Oh My Girl and Baby Monster.

Thus, in this new ranking, Baby Monster has fallen deeply in form when it is at the bottom of the list. Meanwhile, BTS only stops at the top 10. BTS's reputation is partly affected because member Suga of the group is involved in a noisy traffic accident while driving under the influence.

Following the BabyMonster scandal, in early August 2024, YG's rookie was also voted by Japanese audiences as the worst Kpop girl group. Specifically, Japanese magazine FLASH conducted a poll with the content "The least talented Kpop girl group". The poll attracted the attention of many Kpop fans. The participants in the poll could be anyone, from middle-aged people, to office workers and even young people - the main target of Kpop. In addition to voting, the above magazine also commented on the mentioned girl groups.

The names "called out" in the list of least talented chosen by Japanese audiences made people surprised. With 500 people participating in the vote, BABYMONSTER was called "the least talented girl group" with an overwhelming number of votes - 166 votes. Explaining this, the voters commented that YG's rookies looked too similar, had no personality and danced unevenly. BABYMONSTER was said to lack charisma on stage.

aespa is no exception, ranking second. aespa ranked second on the list of "untalented girl groups" because of their lack of personality, similar songs, and bad live singing. Ranked third is LE SSERAFIM - an extremely famous girl group in Japan. Although favored by Japanese fans, LE SSERAFIM is also said to be untalented because they lip-sync too much. The recent skill controversy has greatly affected the reputation of HYBE's girl group.

The above poll caused many mixed opinions on Kpop forums. Except for LE SSERAFIM, a group that is making people doubt their skills, both BABYMONSTER and aespa are highly rated.

Among them, BABYMONSTER, despite facing many difficulties due to its music and image strategy, has never disappointed in its performance ability. The group was trained very carefully by YG, each member is praised in 3 aspects: singing - rapping - dancing. As for aespa, the 4 girls are one of the top girl groups of the 4th generation with the most stable live singing ability.

Many people pointed out that Japanese audiences are being too harsh on Kpop representatives. The common point of the 3 groups that are said to be less talented is that they pursue a strong, warrior concept that does not suit the tastes of the Japanese public. This is probably the main reason why BABYMONSTER, aespa and LE SSERAFIM receive a lot of criticism.
