They could have started with a cover version of a song from SNSD, for instance. They could have performed other covers as a whole group, maybe an SES song. They could have performed at least one new track as a group. The members could have done a mix of solo and duo performances, with BoA, Taeyeon, Hyo, and Wendy having solo releases they could have performed. They could have performed special versions of songs like maybe Karina and Winter could have done a version of "Monster", or Taeyeon and Wendy could have done a duet of a BoA song.

Wasn't NCT (or atleast Dream)'s concept supposed to be somewhat like that at the beginngin, plus TripleS is trying to do something similar to that; I think a complete rotation wouldn't work that well but it definitely has potential - sub-units really should be used more for different groups, it shouldn't be something this rare, there are sub-units bigger than the original group so why wouldn't you experiment more with it

Personally, I would have loved it if they followed their SM TOWN end-year album formula but made it more promotional with a title track and everything. They could have rotating groups with all SM artists and call the units SM U or something. SuperM and GOT the beat could have been one-time units on an SM TOWN album with their debut songs being title tracks in different years. The comebacks could be highly anticipated since people would be eager to see who is in the next title track. Look at how Zoo with Taeyong, Jeno, Hendery, Yangyang, and Giselle got a great reception despite it not having any promotions. They should hire my broke a** to give them advice and fire whoever is doing it right now.

@faeriegraver

NCT U is NCT's rotating members system of subunits, but you're not wrong for mentioning DREAM. Initially DREAM was going to have a graduation system, where members would leave/graduate the group upon reaching adulthood. Mark actually graduated from DREAM, and they had comebacks with six members. However fans had got very attached to the seven members, and the concept wasn't very popular. So eventually it was decided that Mark would rejoin the group, and they would become a permanent seven member subunit. The graduation system is used and has been successful in J-pop, but it's not been successful in K-pop​. After School is another group who had members graduating and leaving the group, and it's widely thought to have affected their popularity. When popular members would graduate people who biased the members who were leaving would lose interest in the group. Some fans would also be put off by the idea that their favourite members could leave at any time. With DREAM at least fans knew when the members were due to leave, as it was when they reached adulthood, but this still didn't make the system any less unpopular, and DREAM fans were really happy when they scrapped it. NCT U works because members take it in turns to form different subunits, and I was looking forward to GOT having different subunits. I think it would have been a good idea with SuperM, too. Both groups were affected negatively by fans of the members groups and solo careers. This affected GOT The Beat's last comeback, too. It was very poorly handled in a lot of ways, but there was a lot of backlash particularly from fans of aespa, and Red Velvet, who wanted to see group comebacks rather than GOT The Beat. @@thethingcalledlisa

@nctisbae

Ай бұрын

@faeriegraver Your right. The problem with After School and NCT Dream's initial concept is that the group would exist like a "fixed unit" since they made many songs with the same members until they graduated, so of course, fans become more attached to original members. NCT U is successful cause it was rotational right from the beginning. They didn't have a fixed group release many songs together and then switch members. That's why different variations of members are still greatly received. Plus, if there is a beloved unit, they could make another song in the future, like how the 7th sense unit came back with Baggy Jeans or even the Taeyong and Ten unit. There is even a BOSS unit comeback called Volcano. If they followed the NCT U formula with all their artists, it could have been more successful than having a fixed SuperM and GOT the beat group.

I loved this group of people being put together, it had SO MUCH potential and SM could have something unamatched in their hands with the amount of talent in there. Also I listened so so so much to their EP (I still listen to this day), although apparently just me and Nathan LoL But I think there was no recovery for how bad the messaging of Step Back was. I still cringe when I think about it and I do believe It literally aliened its potential female fanbase right there.

My favorite music comes out of SM but the company pisses me off to no end the way they are consistently dropping the ball. Their idols have so much talent yet it is often wasted because of the company.

SME finds and trains the best vocalists, dancers & idols then waste them completely

I think the way they treated the group, it felt more like a "filler" for SMCU or whatever the SM events are called rather than an actual subunit. Also, SM would rather go bankrupt than actually promote or protect their female artists

I think huge mistakes were made. You get offered Coachella for a new Kpop Super Group and you turn it down??? Seriously. You take the time to assemble the 7 truly super woman in SM (BoA, Taeyeon, Hyoyeon, Seulgi, Wendy, Karina and Winter). That is HUGE. I absolutely agree with Daniel Yuri Rubinstein. You assemble these 7 women who are hands down even MORE incredible that the assembly for SuperM. You do that. Coachella acknowledges that SuperStardom and offers SM a prime gig and SM turns it down?

Tbh I understand Boa’s feeling out of place. She’s been a soloist since she was 13. Which is a completely different dynamic than being in a group. Like groups literally train for YEARS to learning how to be a group together. They practically live life together. Plus each member of GOT had another member that they are already in a group with. They should’ve just made it 6 members and of course had better promotions and better song lyrics in their debut.

Actually, when it was first announced, we were told every female idol under SM would get their turn in Girls on Top. When their 2nd comeback came and it was the same members, most fans realized this group would be an afterthought and their 1st comeback may be the least we see of them

This is such a mess because this group has so much potential : BoA is in the top female dancers of Kpop aswell as a good vocalist, writer and can rap a little (an Ace) Taeyeon is one of the best Kpop vocalists Hyoyeon is one of the best female dancers and a decent rapper with good sp Karina is an all rounder and is really popular, Winter too Wendy is one of the best Kpop vocalists Seulgi could be a main dancer and a main vocalist

I have always been confused as to why SM wanted to create super groups and give them experimental music. They wouldn't gain a new audience and with the fact that SM cannot properly schedule anything, the group fans were rightfully mad

14:54 The word you’re looking for is “ageism” (with a mix of misogyny).

I watched a interview Taeyeon did with 2 members of Super Junior. They started a show called something like "come over here". They asked her about GOT. She said it's frozen, and she does not feel very optimistic about it. Something like that.

I wish they would've rotated out members. It felt a lot like they just stuck with that line-up because they were the "popular" ones, and, as much as I loved Stamp on It, it felt way too similar to Step Back to be interesting. I think an important point about the failure of Stamp on It (both in terms of the MV and the sales) was that a lot of Aespa and Red Velvet fans at the time were very vocally upset over the lack of new promotions for those groups and that GOT promotions felt like just another hurdle to group activities. I remember the rumor at the time that recording of Stamp on It put off the release of MY World, which had been rumored to be released earlier. Whether or not that was true, that was certainly the perception at the time, and likely led to a lot of fans of the various artists not wanting to support this "side project". As far as other groups to cover, I always think that the story of Lightsum is interesting, especially given the relative success of the other post-IZ*ONE groups.

@arti_0325 this is why Yg need to have thing like this cuz there's other Yg artists like Winner and Akmu but they're underrated. I've seen the 4th gen Jyp collab but I really want to see 2nd gen Jyp artist interact with their junior. Like, 2pm, 2am, Skz collab when? If Jyp didn't disband their old groups, we probably will get that Wonder Girl, Miss A, Twice, Itzy, Nmixx collab? Aaah it's so good being delulu

their producer left the company. simple😭

I miss them so much :( I was really hoping for a full album. I loved all of their songs.

When I think of GOT, I think of a few words/phrases: *Missed opportunities* (for them to branch out and go global) *Missed potential* (for them to do way more as a group) *Disappointment* (in SM) *Sadness* (for the fact that they ended before even really getting started)

I will support them no matter what. Their "Stamp on it" comeback changed my life literally. Every song was great and I would love to see SM give them another chance

SME forever dropping the ball on good talent. You should do HOTSHOT next! Or B.A.P

1:59 a small correction but better was actually boas 10th korean full album. she only has 3 mini albums to her name lol

that sample in stamp on it is delicious and you kept replaying it on loop 😂

I feel like the way SM advertised them they were always one foot in one foot out, like they were barely pushed as more than just an interesting thing to see one time and one time only rather than an actual group with a unique identity and a future. It always came across as if SM knew they'd just end up being an SMTOWN special act of the year.

This was one of my favorite SM projects of all time, and some of their B-sides are some of my favorite SM tracks of all time. Absolutely crushed that they're finished. 😢

I was really expecting a comeback this January first. However I hope the girls the best on their group and solo activites and hopefully we might see GTB again who knows.

I didn't know there was a music video for stamp on it!!

I think SM just wanted to make quick money out of them. Knowing they have lot of popular girls in the group, but end up being a mess

I love got the beat and their music tbh i hope they will have a cb

BoA and Taeyeon and Wendy and Winter just SM been like yo James you like kpop here all the girls you love in kpop MEN!!!! I NEED MORE GOT THE BEAT

Honestly this group is the best example talent isn't everything. You need good songs to be a great artists!! All of these idols have good songs as solo and in groups but in GOT the beat, they got really bad songs and concepts. It also explains how nmixx being insanely talented aren't as popular as new jeans being averagely talented. Good songs + basic skills >>>> bad songs + best skills.

Step back is a good song. It had problematic lyrics tho. Also they picked the wrong title track for their comeback! Any song on that mini could outdo STAMP ON IT. Rose or alter ego are better songs!

The rotating member idea sound amazing. They could have done a co-ed sub unit too Im surprised other companies havent done it. I want hybe to do it since they have a lot of groups

I would love to see you cover tripleS or vvup! And some older groups with incredible stories, such as t-ara, rainbow, secret and co!

I really like your videos. I enjoy learning about different K-pop groups. Can you please do a video on the new girl group Kiss Of Life? I think they are my new favorite K-pop group, along with BLACKPINK of course. I actually knew about the member Julie before I listened to Kiss Of Life. I heard her on a YG Trainee video a few years back, and I remember really liking her voice. I was really hoping that she would make music, and now she has with this new group.

SM is that dumb kid who calls diamonds in hand as "idk very strong stones?". Amazing vocals like GOT should have gotten to grace Coachella. Their B sides Goddess Level and Alter Ego were soo good too.

I think the success of the rotational group projects can also be seen in the SMCU albums. The b-side Zoo was very popular and people liked seeing boy groups and girl groups perform together. An album like that with a concept that isn’t Christmas/winter would also do very well.

Ай бұрын

I basically did a rough estimate based on top album sales over the past year between the biggest boy and girl groups

SuperM had a "Blank Cheque" and more promotions because Capitiol Records were the ones funding a majority of SuperM's activities. It was no secret that CR wanted a successful Kpop BG and when the got SM to make SuperM they went wild with it. GOT The Beat was entirely funded by SM and follows a slightly more practical release approach, although they should've had at least a MV filmed.

​@@Renee84 GOT The Beat or SuperM? For GOT The Beat, Lee Sooman has always loved rotational groups. But Kpop fans wont accept the concept because they get attached to the group dynamic rather then the individual idols. LSM based a lot off Jpop where this concept works well, but unfortunately for him it's not doable in Kpop. Its why Super Junior and NCT Dream had to give up their rotational concepts. After having seen SuperM work, LSM probably wanted to try his hand again with a female equivalent. Especially considering the original premise was every female idol under SM would be a part of GOT and could be called into a Sub-Unit. AKA his goal/dream of having a working rotational group would come true. Since SuperM was a fixed super group unlike GOT, although we only ever got one GOT Unit. As For why SuperM was made. To put it bluntly, Capitol Records wanted their own version of BTS or at least the same sorta success that they had. Before any hate comes, I'm a SuperM fan and a casual BTS fan. CR saw the success of BTS and approached SM/Lee Sooman about trying their own version with a group in America. Lee Sooman has also always wanted to go big in America, which is why he's sent previous acts such as BoA to debut there. It's the same reason why SM were going to do NCT Hollywood before Lee Sooman left. If Lee Sooman hadn't left SM and maybe also the Lucas drama happened then we probably would've got the SuperM comeback that was teased during either a BeyondLive or SM Town a year or two back.

SuperM was supposed to have a comeback last year around fall. It was on the SM artist calendar. But Kai enlisted earlier than expected screwing over both SuperM and Exo. (Most likely SM’s fault.) And not to mention COVID happening during their first tour, messing up all current and future plans for the group at the time. (Not SM’s Fault.) But what I’ve been trying to wrap my head around is why SM would create a super group, consisting of members whose military enlistments were right around the corner. (Entirely SM’s fault.) If we’re lucky, we might be able to get a comeback when Kai comes back and before Taeyong enlists but at this rate, we really shouldn’t hold our breath.

Eiiiiiiiiiiiii new upload!

@InternetsNathan

Ай бұрын

Everyone that has taste stans LE SSERAFIM and knows Smart is the better track 🤭

The main reason GOT flopped is because everyone’s respective fandom didn’t want them to succeed. Instead of GOT content, every fandom wanted each group/artist to release their own music. Aespa was still new and overdue for their own comeback, RV weren’t able to promote their own content properly and Taeyeon was over due for a tour following her releases. Fans refused to buy the album because they wanted sale numbers to go to their own artists. As the less popular members, that left BoA and Hyoyeon as punching bags. They were accused of using GOT to benefit their own careers when in reality it was a get quick rich scheme from SM that failed. The amount of hate and vitriol those two got was horrible. I hope the GOT concept never returns. We don’t deserve it and it’s always going to be a competition between the fans about why so and so got this part which ensues hate and fights between fandoms. We saw the same thing with Super M. Super groups aren’t a good idea.

The fact that i knew they had an album just last october , GOT was miss the market that their individual group / soloist offers. I’ll hope they come back for one day 🤞

Idk what the CEO of SM was smoking when they released the performance of the comeback instead of the music video, the hype for the group would’ve been still there if they released the teaser and next the MV instead of the performance (they did it the first time but considering the group will be releasing a mini album with a title track, you know there’s a music video for that.)

I enjoy every single song in their album (not usually happen to me with a kpop album)

Also Red Velvet are one of the biggest groups in 3rd gen arguably the 3rd most popular 3rd gen girl group so why preface it like that, even if you don’t Stan Red Velvet you absolutely know who they are.

Be real her stage presence is mid at best and she was only popular because of her new face.

I don't think we'll be seeing any more Super M or GOT the Beat comebacks. Those were Lee Soo Man's brainchild, and we all know what happened to him. Plus, none of the individual fandoms were happy about GOT the Beat. It had been nearly a year since Taeyeon had had a comeback, SM still hadn't rescheduled Red Vekvet's cancelled concerts, and Aespa's fans were angry because they were spending all their time doing collabs and they still hadn't had a full album yet. I wasn't surprised when Stamp on It got boycotted.

The "super group" was way too ambitious. It was a weird direction. You can't coordinate everyone's schedule like that, especially when all the artists still have individual or group activities. When they debuted, I assumed it was because they wanted to promote Red Velvet but didn't want to make a comeback while Irene's scandal was still on everyone's minds.

I thought that GOT was supposed to cycle through the female idols in SM. I was excited to see the possibility of Joy and Ning Ning in the same group.

the whole recent comeback section of this video is incorrect. got the beat debuted late 2021/2022 not 2020/2021. by this time red velvet had released queendom and aespa had released next level, savage, dreams come true etc.

It's so sad because this group had soooooo much potenial

To this day, I still think that SM rushed GOT the Beat due to the fact of how successful Refund Sisters were on 2020
