Which idol groups are most loved by Korean teens nowadays? 

On an online community forum, a netizen shared a photo taken from a recent survey published on Cosmopolitan. According to this editorial, people in the age group between 10 and 19 selected 4th-generation idol groups that they believed were hottest among teens.

The exact question directed at the participants was: "Which group are you most interested in these days among 4th-generation idol goups?"

Based on this survey, 33.5% of teens answered The Boyz, 32.4% TOMORROW x TOGETHER, 15.5% Stray Kids, 4% NCT, 2.6% ENHYPEN, 2% ATEEZ, and 10% chose other miscellaneous groups.

When it came to girl groups, 46.2% chose aespa, 22.9% STAYC, 15.4% ITZY, 6.6% Weeekly, and 8.9% were miscellaneous groups.

In the comments section, netizens once again hotly debated the definition of '4th-generation', which most people agreed to be as "groups that debuted after the year 2017". Meanwhile, other netizens either agreed or disagreed with the results of the survey.

Reactions include:

"Old auntie here also agrees"

"I think NCT has more adult fans nowadays!"

"I don't know any of these groups except for aespa and STAYC"

"aespa and STAYC, I agree"

"This auntie also agrees..."

"Wait, NCT is 4th gen?"

"Weeekly, the hidden gems~"
