The artists may have been good, but the material sure wasn't. Big Bang's album was bad? It was a pretty awesome album tbh, and I wasn't even a fan beforehand. | ||

I don't usually get into male groups but EXO has been the only one in a while where I enjoyed pretty much everything on their album (other than MAMA). Infinite is usually good too, other than that the dudes are usually very hit and miss for me. | ||

Their success lies in Japan, and as far as I know, Hara is one of the main reasons why they are so popular over there. I genuinely liked Sistar's album, and in my opinion Twinkle is one of the best albums that has been released in the past year or so. Dude no. Kara is top 5 popularity in Korea. If you recently got into kpop it might not seem that way because they're pretty much always in Japan but they are one of the hugest girl groups there. Looking at album sales, fanbase numbers, etc. there's no way that Kara isn't that big. Money's better in Japan so ofc they're going to spend more time there but anyone who thinks they're middle tier or whatever is wrong. Releases have been disappointing. 4minute always sucks but this time sucks harder than usual. Girl's Day song is bad and they ruined Yura. Big Bang continues to disappoint me because they used to be alot better. Ma Boy remains the only Sistar song I like, and that was a subgroup song. I almost forgot Miss A had a new song given the little hype it got and how average it was. @Nickson- BAP is good as is Ailee. Don't care about Spica and EXO is terrible. | ||

From Big Bang, I only really liked the song that wasn't a ballad (Fantastic Baby). I started listening to a solo female artist (Ailee) - never did that before. I disliked a GsD song - who thought that'd ever happen. Miss A comeback blowed. And something good comes out of SNSD. I hope A Pink and Secret comebacks restore order in my world of Kpop (i.e. don't disappoint). | ||

![]() -- Comebacks and debuts this year, I'm not disappointed that's the best way to put it I guess. Sistar was ok enough, Lyn was nice Ailee's song got boring after the 3rd time I heard it but her IS2 stuff was awesome SNSD put out something decent(2 songs) BAP was alright, Block B didn't suck, that was surprising Shinhwa's comeback(Fyeaaaah!) was cool but best track only saw stage performances a couple times and other good tracks on the album didn't, could have been better December is back too bad song wasn't good Han Soa's new album was very nice I've listed enough I think most of the other stuff was either a catchy thing that I forgot over time(Miss A) or just plain awful(4Minute, Girl's Day), CNBlue and FT did their I sound the same as the last album but worse thing. Last but not least Big Bang, I guess now they can put out anything regardless of quality and it will be well received based on their previous merits. | ||

Top 5 girl group, maybe, I am not informed enough about numbers and stuff to draw an actual conclusion. And definitely don't want to start another list spam of who thinks are the most popular girl groups. However what I do know is, is that their popularity in Japan is no joke, whereas in Korea I still have my doubts. The concert in Korea with all the empty seats comes to mind, not sure how real that was though. They are a group that debuted quite a while ago, that should be taken in consideration as well. Anyway, the point I was trying to make wasn't about Kara's popularity. But disagreeing that HSY alone was the cause of their succes. | ||
