I think K-Pop should definitely have more gender-mixed groups. The stereotype view of anyone of different genders hanging out are romantically involved is a very biased way to view relationships. Sometimes it’s very fun and interesting to be friends with a girl or a boy withouy having romantic interests. Having these groups will slowly break those stereotypes and I’m all for that and I will definitely support them!
