New Jeans

– The perfect synergy of ‘New Jeans’ pure and warm charm, energetic yet cool mood and easy listening song would be the secret of its success. Cold winter, with Ditto in the sweet and warm tone ringing in my ears, and in the hot summer refreshing and powerful Super Shy will likely trigger inner dance. That’s why the music and stage of New Jeans gradually permeates and colors the whole world.

-New Jeans ontinued this year. It is analyzed that Ditto, OMG, Super Shy, and ETA were able to solidify their ranks as one-top girl groups. The results of sweeping the grand prize at year-end music award ceremonies such as MAMA and MMA proved that 2023 was the Year of the New Jeans.

IVE

-I think the main strength of IVE’s music is confidence, belief and love for oneself, and good influence that instills a positive mind through this. The challenging and progressive attitude of the members to unite and pioneer the path of IVE’s own will also serve as a great force to attract public support. I’m looking forward to the infinite possibility of IVE’s flexible changes depending on the music and what kind of transformation it will show next year.

-The group has been successful in becoming one-top this year, showing off its power. Starting with “Kitche,” the music all-kill march showed off the power of the band with consecutive box office hits. The music sales have also topped 1 million copies since “After Like.” It has begun a period of stabilizing box office hits.

LE SSERAFIM

-It was a year where LE SSERAFIM’s bold move was outstanding. LE SSERAFIM, who overcame crises and trials and strengthen its ability. They clearly rode the upward trend and showed rapid growth under fire from both home and abroad. Just like the song, Unforgiven’s message, LE SSERAFIM’s move itself becomes a “challenge” and an “opportunity” to mark a new history. They are drawing applause.

-I think it’s a year that showed the possibility of LE SSERAFIM. Although Kim Garam had a crisis of withdrawal due to allegations of school violence in the early days of its debut, the firmly defended LE SSERAFIM’s position. It has showed and proved the glide of LE SSERAFIM as they delivered the message, “We will stay strong in any hardships.”

aespa

-It has been a year filled with “working hard” so that you can clearly feel aespa’s resentment and thirst during the long hiatus. aespa is running nonstop from group activities to individual activities. Having established a unique concept across the wilderness and the real world, asspa now has the perfect one-top competitiveness as it has the wings of “popular pick.” With its strong charisma to lively charm, I wonder what kind of transformation aespa will make.

-aespa, one of 4th gen girl groups, protected SM’s pride with a broad musical spectrum. aespa, who returned to the real world after fighting against Black Mamba and showed freewheeling and youthful charm, gave aespa the newly emerging Summer Queen modifier. aespa, who gained popularity after “Spicy,” tried to make another transformation by introducing ‘Drama’. I’m looking forward to seeing how aespa, who freely crosses various charms, will be painted in 2024.

So the critics made comments on 4th gen girl groups activities in 2023. They even pointed out what they are expecting in 2024. What do you think of the comments? Do you agree?
