In the comment section, many Korean netizens agree with this opinion, saying,
“I usually think about this, too. I was curious because New Jeans was rarely mentioned compared to IVE, LE SSERAFIM, and aespa.”
“Honestly, isn’t this right? aespa and BLACKPINK are already well-proven groups, but with just a little bit of AR installed, they are heavily criticized. NewJeans’ songs are easier (compared to anespa and BLACKPINK), but nothing happens when they use AR.”
“But there is a tendency to treat NewJeans nicer because the group’s image itself is pure and young, people seem to love and be proud of them rather than critical.”
“I hope they stop lip-syncing and do more live performances. I want to see them perform properly.”
As of November 21, the post has gathered approximately 92,000 views.
