Netizens debate if Kwangya is limiting aespa's creativity and concepts

AKP STAFF

Netizens are debating if Kwangya is limiting aespa's creativity and concepts as a girl group. 

Recently a post prompting a debate about aespa's Kwangya concept caught netizens' eyes. The original poster wrote, "I want to see aespa doing a wide range of concepts but aespa is too tied down to Kwangya. I feel they need to give variations to not overuse one concept. I understand there are fans who like the status quo but still..." 


Many netizens shared their thoughts in the comments, saying: 

"This is like asking to sell a pork cutlet at a tteok-bokki place" 

"That's why they do songs like 'life's too short', 'dreams come true' and 'forever'. The main title has to continue carrying out the group's main concept." 

"Why create a new universe if they were to change up in just 2 years? smh I don't understand why some people want to change the title concept of the group."

"Give them some time. They may do different concepts in the future." 

"I like aespa having a distinct and strong concept. There are too many groups out there ending up in the pile without getting noticed because they didn't have a unique feel to the group." 

"One of the members talked about the real-world concept. We'll just have to wait and see."   

What do you think?

SM sure loves cringy concepts. Same thing that they did with EXO and their superpowers at the beginning. Seems like it's more toned down/subtle now, so it will probably happen the same with Aespa.

But the issue with Aespa is the lyrics, they include a lot of things like FLAT, SYNK DIVE, REKALL... and if you don't know anything about their concept, it sounds like nonsense english. So, new fans and casual listeners will totally get lost while listening to the songs.
