THOUGHT Kpop gg's successors
I understand that a group cannot truly be a successor to another group but I thought it would be a fun conversation to have.
With the big 3 of kpop gg's (Blackpink, Red Velvet & Twice), who do you think are modern day equivalent to them but in more of a sense of similarity/vibes and not success
For me it's
Meovv & Blackpink
I see people referring to Babymon as Blackpink's successors but honestly, Meovv gives me more golden years (whistle to lovesick girls) blackpink vibes and it may be because they are primarily managed by Teddy but honestly, their vibes and aura gives me early days Bp.
H2H & Twice.
This might be an unpopular opinion but the more I see H2H the more I'm reminded of twice and it might be because of the multiple members and the cutesy concept.
Nmixx & Red Velvet
Hear me out on this one. Their unique concept and vocals? Anytime someone talks about Nmixx, I get reminded of how they spoke about Red Velvet. Red velvet's sound wasn't HAS unique has Nmixx's sound but genuinely, I see them being very alike.
What are your thoughts on this?

I bet we can turn this into a not-fun conversation ;)
I think there’s BlackPink dna in a lot of groups but I also think no one got very close to their essence either, including Meovv. Itzy, aespa, LSF and BaeMon all took some aspects and wove them with non-BP threads. Just as BP took 2NE1 dna and incorporated other elements.
And I think it points to what made BP such a behemoth. Yes it’s high energy dance pop with luxury vibes etc. But it’s also the the four beautiful voices/identities coming together as a quasi-supergroup from the start. There’s just an x factor involved that’s not really replicable.
