What do you think is the reason why Oh My Girl is getting less popular lately?

 They've been maintaining their popularity which has risen since Queendom (2019) up until Nonstop, Dolphin, and Dun Dun Dance (2021).

They ranked quite high in the music charts (#26 in The Annual Charts), their videos on Youtube reach over 1M views, and Arin became the model for BYC and even a music show MC.

But I feel like their popularity dropped out of a sudden?? Their popularity was raising like stairs, I thought they could maintain it for a long time if they were consistent. I expected them to be popular just like how popular SNSD and Apink were in the period of Gen 3.

What do you think is the reason behind that?

The songs by girl groups who are 7 years old and older that have won #1 in public TV music shows

10 years old:

Why So Lonely (Wonder Girls) (2016)

Dumhdurum (Apink) (2020)

9 years old:

Lion Heart (SNSD) (2015)

%% (Apink) (2019)

FIVE (Apink) (2017)

Psycho (Red Velvet) (2020)

1. [+520][-1] Because Gen 4 started and amidst the intense competition among girl groups, they barely make any comeback in 1 year. I think the fact that Real Love is not a really good song also plays a big role. 

2. [+359][-2] They don't release songs that are as good as their previous songs were. They lost to the new girl groups. 

3. [+309][-2] In order to be popular, you have to have a good song. Their comeback this year was so-so. And we all know that female idols rely a lot on the public's recognition.

4. [+239][-9] They've been recycling their concept way too much. Real Love MV looks so f*cking similar to Dun Dun Dance MV.

5. [+193][-2] Girl groups do have big fandoms too, these days. But just like what the other comment said, female idols still rely a lot on the public's recognition. Oh My Girl made just one comeback in a year. Arin, who is mentioned on the post, doesn't really have any personal schedule after she quit being Music Bank MC. She also barely starred in any drama this year, not to mention that the viewer ratings of that drama were so-so.

NCT Dream's Season Greetings... Who are you?

I'm not a fan. I wish my favorite idol group would do this sports concept tooㅠㅠ 

pann

[+61][-14]

1. [+25][-1] The covers looks f*cking gorgeous as well, I'm so freaking jealous

2. [+21][-1] It's funny how Jisung is the only one with the cute pose when all of his hyungs are posing in a cool mannerㅋㅋㅋㅋ

3. [+20][-0] I think SM idols' season greetings this time are all pretty

4. [+12][-0] Is Jisung's nose natural? It's really pretty

5. [+8][-0] This looks so pretty, I'm so jealousㅠㅠ Sports concept never fails...

MV Highlight - Alone

 

theqoo

-Yoon Dujun is really handsome

-The song sounds so freaking amazing

-Hul... I don't think I've seen them with this concept before

-The song is really addicting

-This is the side of Highlight that I have never seen before, I love it

-Whoa... They give off Gen 4 vibes here. That's really unexpected of them. I love the song.

-Are these Oppas re-debuting in Gen4?? They know what's trending right nowㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-I guess I'm the only one who ages here...

-This is new coming from them, but they suit this concept really wellㅋㅋ I love the song!!

-Crazy... I freaking love this. Are they really a 14-year-old group?ㅠㅠㅠ

-This song is really addicting, I can't stop listening to it

-I love this song. I've checked out their side-tracks and they're all just as good as the title.

Hyeri's little sister takes pictures with Blackpink

 

theqoo

-Hul... She's f*cking gorgeous

-She looks like Kim Sejeong

-I'd believe it if someone told me she was an idol...

-Whoa... Blackpink's members are known to have small faces, though. Look at the size of her face.

-I thought she was one of the membersㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Whoa... She looks like a mixture of Hyeri and Kim Sejeong...

-Whoa... Hyeri's little sister is just as beautiful as she is...

-Hul... Why is she so prettyㅋㅋㅋ

-I once coincidentally met their mother in person and she was really beautiful

-Whoa... Is her little sister also a celebrity?

-She reminds me of actress Kang Minah

-Whoa... She was born to be a celebrity....

How is she turning 40 next year?

[+103][-3]

1. [+27][-1] I think foreigners would mistake her for a minor if they didn't know

2. [+21][-0] There's something that Sandara Park was just born with. I'm a fan, I sometimes see pictures of her non-celebrity little sister. Her sister is in her 30s and she looks like she's in her 20s. Not to mention that she takes a really good self-care. I don't think a lot of people know that she's kind of scary when she manages her body. She always tries to gain abs every time she performs, like for Coachella and her previous performances back then. Despite having the type of body that doesn't get muscular easily. 

3. [+16][-2] You have to eat a little to be healthy

4. [+13][-2] The most important thing is not her age, but her face. I think her skin age would be so much younger than most of people in their 20s. 

5. [+9][-0] She has a really beautiful smile

I didn't know that Red Velvet...

 ... Has various concepts

pann

[+106][-28]

1. [+63][-1] They have the combination of SNSD's popularity and F(x)'s uniqueness...

2. [+54][-5] I always get surprised every time people talk about the age of the group every year...

3. [+38][-3] Despite the one member with controversy, it's not common to see idol groups with this achievement at this age of career...

4. [+37][-1] Red Velvet always makes people anticipate their comebacks and every single of their release, even from the teasers, always becomes an issue. It's not an easy thing for idol groups to achieve. 

5. [+17][-0] I'm always looking forward every time Red Velvet makes a comeback

6. [+14][-0] I still can't believe that Red Velvet is already 9 years old... They're the group that I want to see for a long time

Why does it look empty without Huh Yunjin...

 LE SSERAFIM on Inkigayo

pann
[+114][-16]

1. [+266][-5] I'm not starting a fight but of course, it looks empty when someone is missing from 5-members group, right?

2. [+92][-48] Their stage is more shocking. I have never felt an emptiness this big just because a member is missing. I think Huh Yunjin is the member who holds the balance in the group. 

3. [+68][-21] This makes me realize that Huh Yunjin is the identity of LE SSERAFIM. I'm surprised that the rest of members could fill the emptiness of Huh Yunjin's space really well

4. [+60][-32] The image of their group is 'Strong Character' and the member who suits that image the best is missing... Kazuha looks like a quite strong character, though...

5. [+46][-1] I think only Huh Yunjin can rock the 'So much talk behind my back~' part... I'm saying Huh Yunjin is that good...
