Karina (aespa) revealed her weakness, was criticized when she compared her dance performance with Seulgi (Red Velvet)

The competition of two generations of SM main dancers - Karina and Seulgi is causing the online community to constantly argue.

Closing a successful 2021, aespa received many impressive awards, and rose to the top of the new generation of g.irl groups. However, besides the praise for the SM g.irl group, there are also many controversial opinions about the members' talents.

During music festivals, awards ceremonies, and year-end projects, aespa seems to show more and more flaws. The group was mocked for constantly lip syncing, the "10 times like 1" stage lacked creativity. When collaborating with seniors SNSD, Red Velvet in the project GOT The Beat, aespa also revealed immaturity and inexperience.

Most recently, after SM released a short video promoting the dance Step Back performed by Seulgi (Red Velvet) and Karina, controversial opinions about Karina's dancing ability continued to erupt.

With the same choreography, Karina was criticized for her lack of rhythmic force control and lack of sensitivity in terms of "music touch" with Red Velvet seniors. Karina's limb movements look more cumbersome and clumsy when in the same frame as Seulgi. For Seulgi, she is not ashamed to be the top main dancer of Gen 3. Although her b.ody seems inferior to her juniors, her outstanding dancing skills have helped Seulgi take the spotlight completely. The movements shown by Seulgi look gentle, simple but still beautiful.

However, Karina's fans gave the opposite opinion. Fans claim that Karina has shortcomings with her seniors, but in terms of footwork, she is superior. The aespa team leader is very meticulous in performing the movement in the feet. When zoomed in closely, it can be seen that Karina completely "beats" Seulgi in this regard.

Some netizens' comments:

- People who think Seulgi's dance is inferior to Karina's are ridiculous. This is just a TikTok video and she is very relaxed, dancing simple but still beautiful. If you want to compete, go on stage.

- The two generations of SM main dancers are amazing. But Seulgi is still on another level.

- Actually, Karina's worst point is that hand gesture. She dances like she's learning it by heart.

Before that, netizens were constantly arguing about the members who showed high notes in Step Back. Between Taeyeon, Wendy, Seulgi, and Winter, who received the best response from netizens. According to netizens, Wendy is the member who conquers the smooth high notes and has the most suitable voice for the song "Step Back".

Taeyeon is also appreciated for her skillful technique and "genuine" voice color. Thanks to Taeyeon's voice, the song becomes easier to listen to, more classy. Seulgi also scored points when she easily hit high notes even though she was only the lead vocal.

Meanwhile, aespa's Winter is the most criticized vocal when performing highnote in Step Back. Netizens think that the aespa member can hit high notes but his voice is quite sharp, making listeners feel "early tired" when enjoying the song. Some comments even commented that Winter seemed "too much" in the highnote performance. Compared to Taeyeon, Wendy, and Seulgi, Winter is completely inferior.

Meanwhile, fans defended Winter with the reason that she has only been a rookie debut for more than a year, of course, she can't be compared with her senior. Fans claim that Winter has a lot of potential, just need more time to practice and the vocals will improve much more. Fans also hope that netizens have a more tolerant view of Winter.

Currently, project g.irl group GOT is attracting the attention of many Kpop fans. The super g.irl group lineup includes famous names including BoA, Taeyeon, Hyoyeon (SNSD), Wendy, Seulgi (Red Velvet) and Karina, Winter (aespa). After releasing the "Step Back" stage at the SM concert on January 1, a series of topics about GOT The Beat continuously covered social networks.

Accordingly, netizens are having mixed opinions about the song "Step Back" by the "super g.irl group" Girls On Top. Many fans criticized this song for being too difficult to absorb, with many overlapping high notes, making it feel like listening to the girls "screaming". The song's melody lacks an "addictive" segment, but just like a patchwork of disjointed segments.

Not stopping there, the song Step Back was criticized for the lyrics "banana", "sloppy". The name of the project is Girls On Top, which sounds very "feminist", but the song's content is about bringing down another g.irl for fighting for love with a man.

The theme of this song is criticized as "outdated like the lyrics 20 years ago", the content is extremely "toxic", a waste of the top vocals. In general, netizens rated GOT's song as a "bomb", disappointing because SM could have chosen a better song for the idol group that owns this "selected" vocal and visual.
