i feel very disconnected from all the newer groups praised in this thread, unlike back in the day when GG, 2NE1, Super Junior, Big Bang, f(x), After School, and 4minute all ruled this thread.
The exception being BlackPink. Literally the last kpop group I actually got really into was D-Unit and they like, disbanded two years ago or something.

2NE1 on the other hand were really amazing to me. But then again, I became a fan right when IATB came out, so I was there for the best part of their career, their best releases, 2NE1 TV, etc. I suppose it may really have been a "had to be there" thing because they're like...keystones of k-pop to me.

I like Big Bang's newer stuff but it's still one big "eh". I get more life from G-Dragon + Taeyang together (or their solo stuff) than I get from the group as a whole. As for 2NE1, I know they're great and have good music and videos but they don't grab me... That's not to take away from them and everything they've done for kpop. I know my faves are nothing compared to BB at their peak lol
it's def a timing thing for sure (and their absence from the kpop scene) bc iKON isn't that different from current BB and BLACKPINK is very similar to 2NE1 yet I love both of those groups.
