It's basically the same and it's in a language that you can understand. It's fine to prefer one style over the other but don't say that the industry should completely abandon something that's actually unique to Asia and not just borrowed from the west ("aegyo").

gurl !?
what's edgy about JLS and the Saturdays !? JLS is the worst boyband EVER (and I mean it), and I only know one song by the Sats, I find them bland, they don't interest me one bit.
edgy doesn't necessary mean "western", SHINee's "Lucifer" is edgy, and I don't think I've ever heard a western song that sounds like it, same goes to TVXQ, BEG...etc.
K-Pop is more than Aegyo, I got hooked because I was impressed by the choreography, talent, music videos, charisma...etc.
I just can't get into the cheesy corny aegyo girl-groups....I just CANNOT!!!

The fact that you even think of this is as some kind of intelligence contest is just...
