Blackpink and BTS have always been the leading Kpop groups over the past few years. They are considered worthy opponents of each other as they continuously compete fiercely on many rankings.
BTS and Blackpink have also set world records many times, bringing resonance to the Kpop music industry.
Korean media speculates that during the time BTS enlists, Blackpink will be the only group that can follow and dominate Kpop.
Specifically, recently, Korean media reported that the remaining 5 members of BTS (2 of whom have enlisted) will enlist together this year.
If this information is authentic, there is a high possibility that audiences will have to wait until 2025 to see BTS again with all 7 members.
For this reason, audiences and experts ask the question of who will be the group strong enough to replace BTS and continue to help Kpop develop?
A poll was launched and the results were not surprising when Blackpink was the most mentioned name.
Specifically, YTN explained the reasons why Blackpink deserves to replace BTS to dominate Kpop.
Firstly, Blackpink has completely different and unique music, all 4 members have a strong position and reputation. Most importantly, the 4 YG girls have a rapidly growing global fan base.
Second, in August and September last year, Blackpink also surpassed BTS on the brand value rankings when the group members were ambassadors of a series of high-end and leading brands in the world.
Third, Blackpink is on a world tour and the revenue brought in from the concerts is amazing. In particular, the group’s BORN PINK tour became the highest-grossing tour of all time for a girl group. This record was once held by the Spice Girls with their Spice World tour in 2019. Notably, the group broke this record before finishing their tour.
Blackpink girls all have tens of millions of fans. In addition, many of Blackpink’s music products have much higher views than BTS.
Currently, Blackpink is still in very good form. They are focusing on group activities and expanding internationally. This helps the group’s name become more and more known, while the individual status of each member also improves.
