Joga 1,315 Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 I'm not talking about idols that have been popular forever like BB or SNSD, I'm talking about the small time-ish idols that have similar concepts and come together to make kpop what it is at the point in time. So like, 2009-2012 Teen Top, B2ST, BAP, MBLAQ (I really just remember boy groups dominating at this time because I wasn't into kpop and the i-fan community at the time was heavily BG biased) 2013-2015 AOA, Girl's Day, Stellar, Apink, EXID (sexy concepts everywhere with a random apink stuck in the middle) And you?

Auri 1,964 Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 They're not small, but for some reason I always think of SHINee when people talk about kpop's golden era. Like, instead of Gee, Sorry Sorry, Nobody, I am the Best etc, I always think of Ring Ding Dong as the most iconic song from back then lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think its because they were the most "of that era" at the time? Random memory: In 2011 I asked my Japanese member what 'Shin' meant because I noticed Shinee would always have it capitalized (SHINee) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silicon soul 19,457 Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 For 09-12 you mentioned bgs dominating but it was arguably all about ggs at the time. 2ne1, fx, after school, 4minute, Sistar, miss a etc all debuted around that time and were all quite successful and well known for a while.

I wasn't into kpop at that time and I only saw MVs from my BG biased friends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
