A girl group spanning five generations is coming!
KPOP people, KPOP souls, KPOP people have ushered in a New Year gift.
In the new year, SM Entertainment unveiled a new project "Girls On Top (GOT)". The first set of concept combination Got the beat, just look at the lineup makes people feel incredibly luxurious, spanning five generations, the full team is powerful, and everyone's strength should not be underestimated. If you use the analogy of Japanese food, it is a kaiseki cuisine level girl group.
Fledgling newcomers
As a member of the newcomer girl group Asepa, Kim Hyun-ting has been questioned about her singing prowess for a period of time when she first debuted. One is that the company's decision not to open wheat makes them less protected and incapable of being ridiculed, and the other is that Winter's half-joking humming on the stage makes people "sit down" and their strength is not good, and they are really under a lot of pressure under the "black and red" route.
As a new era girl group launched by the company for six years after difficult childbirth, and compared under the aura of the predecessor girl group Red Velvet, they must have made a lot of psychological management preparations in addition to expression management.
However, in the several opening stages given by the company, Winter's tone is very agile, and the singing ability of lead singer Ningning is comparable, and the breath is also very stable and well received.
The strength of the predecessors that are difficult to surpass
First of all, Wendy, under the premise of having a wide range, there are also distinctive European and American voices, high notes, rap, love songs can be handy, the most characteristic is that her voice contains a full sense of story, which as long as people who have heard her sing "Can only erase you from sadness" will feel it.
In addition, Kim Tae-yeon, the young lead singer who has debuted five times now, has a high degree of timbre recognition, the resonance of the chest makes the voice sound rich and emotional, the switching false voice is also very natural, and the strength of the strongest singer should not be underestimated.
Enough dance skills
Liu Zhimin's dance strength is indeed not fluent enough when compared with her predecessors, but as a newcomer who has just debuted, she can already be regarded as a better performer. She is not an explosive power type, nor a neat card point type, but a clean dancer who does every move in place.
Strength and fluency can be cultivated and grown, but Liu Zhimin's own conditions are superior to all of us - long hands and feet, perfect figure, head and body than advanced, etc., under these premises, do a good job of expression management and lens sense of blessing, dance expression can be said to be excellent.
And the dance strength of Kim Hyo-won when he was young is impeccable. In the more than ten years of leading the dance when she was a teenager, Kim Hyo-won's dance has also experienced from jerky to mature, taking into account the female femininity and power explosion of dance performance, so that Li Xiuman recognized her as the strongest dancer in SM, and she was not compared in strength when she danced with the members of the boy band, so she was praised as a dancer.
ACE and the "Stars of Asia"
Having good dancing and singing skills is actually not the killer skill of this girl group, and it is the real king-level stage that can make the four generations of the strongest ACE Jiang Shiqi and the "Asian Star" BoA team up together.
Can be rated among TWICE, BLACKPINK, MAMAMOO, GFriend, Red Velvet, Cosmic Girl, MOMOLAND, Oh My Girl among many girl groups, can jiang Shiqi's strength still need to be said? In her seven-year career as a trainee, she has grown from a transparent person to an all-round ACE, in which only she knows the effort.
Dance style is agile while maintaining a sense of strength, not only the basic skills are solid, in the double speed challenge can also do fast and not chaotic, debut is still "dance fool" she constantly insists on practicing, every time dancing must do all the movements are done carefully, not only can all styles be pinched just right, but also can have their own style integrated in it.
Her singing is also recognized as good, not only her voice is unique, but also in the singing and dancing to keep every tone is outrageous, in the "Red Babe" high-intensity dance can also maintain the breath is not chaotic, its strength is obvious to all.
Look at the diva BoA Bao'er, who single-handedly opened the Japanese and American markets of SM with the strength of the Korean Wave when the Korean Wave was not yet rising, and was a proper international superstar.
Both the dance technique and the singing performance are the intensity of the crushing.
On top of singing and dancing, Bao'er has embarked on an artistic level of exploration and display, and her concert is not only super infectious, but also very imposing. Her success is not achieved overnight, excellent timbre, holding wheat is also super stable stage strength, in fact, she practiced singing on the treadmill, and hard work and talent, not fire are difficult to tolerate.
Although the lyrics of the new song were written by the producers as somewhat brainless, we have to admit that the melody is toxic, and COCO is looking forward to the surprises that this group of top girl groups will bring us next time!

Of course, this is not the first time sm has launched a limited group.
In terms of limiting the number of women's groups, SM can be said to be an expert. In the spirit of creating infinite possibilities, SM's Rubik's Cube gameplay of splitting its artists into groups can be described as somewhat historical.

SM's limited girl group began with the 2016 SM Station project, which reallocated the resources and activities of its artists, not based on popularity as an absolute indicator, exploring more possibilities in the music field, and in the following seasons of the campaign, the company also expanded its scope, in addition to the limited team under the combination, it also sought artist cooperation between different companies, which caused a strong response.
For example, SM has invited Jiang Shiqi to form the STATE X 0 limited female group, and other members include Gfriend's main dancer Huang Enfei, (G) I-DLE captain Tian Xiaojuan and Dashi solo Jin Please Xia to release the single "Wow Thing". These four members are considered to be the comprehensive ace of the four generations of the girl group, the popularity is very high, the fans are also very eating, and they have expressed their desire for permanence.
