Superm Puns

This may be unpopular due to Jopping being a meme but at least it didn’t insult their audience. The vast majority of Kpop stans are female. Calling another woman a silly girl, saying that this woman deludes “good” men, and saying their man is next level really is pure ‘pick me’ behavior. At least Jopping is a hype song that tells you that these men are the best in the industry. Even though the lineup was less balanced than GOT in terms of lineup (1 from Shinee, 2 from EXO, the rest from NCT) and despite a horrid line distribution, the song was pure fun! There were iconic lines, which I didn’t really hear in Step Back (Give Karina a meme line at least damn!) The Mark copypasta impacted the kpop community. I don’t see Step Back playing at April Fools Day, just saying.

GIRLS ON TOP.

HELLO?!

BONJOUR?!

HALLO?!

HOLA?!

WHAT THE FUCK IS EVEN GOING ON WITH SM AT THIS POINT LMAO.

SM are the Marvel Studios of K-Pop at this point this is getting ridiculous in a good way.

It's a moot point now, but it doesn't seem like Lucas got many lines. On Kprofiles it says he's lead rapper but Mark is much better.

SuperF ?

When people bring up superm and fandoms reactions to it, Exols are often brought up for their complete dismissal of it while I in no shape or form think the hashtag or how KaiBaek was treated by some parts of the fandom was okay, but I believe people hide behind these to not admit that Exols are right about how it was not good for EXO.

Let’s go back to the year before:

-EXO came back in Nov and Dec with DMUMT/LS their most successful comeback, 2M copies sold , their highest viewed MV in 24h (Tempo) , LS has surpassed 480M views couple of days ago, both did fine on the Korean chart with LS being a cute international hit, top 25 on BB200 etc, with very basic promotions.

-EXO gains a good number of fans.

-EXO goes silent, in Dec we got news from a Kyungsoo interview EXO will start touring in February and he’s practicing his tap dancing, December ends, January ends, there is no EXO tour news, EXO did not got on tour in Feb, EXO is silent.

-Another SM act drop tour announce in January, rumour speculation SM did not want them to clash and EXO taking attention from the other.

-“Kyungsoo leaving SM” rumour drop in March denied immediately after.

-EXO is silent once again.

-EXO - CBX tour Japan, it was a goodbye tour for Minseok who’d enlist in may.

-Chen debut as a soloist in April.

-EXO is silent again nothing is happening.

-Kyungsoo out of nowhere drop enlistment letter, he’s enlisting in July.

-Distraction move, EXO finally announces tour at the same day Ksoo drop his enlistment letter.

-June is silent.

-Tour dates are revealed, same spots nothing new, international fans are disappointed.

-Baekhyun and SC debut as a soloist and duo July “EXOs month”, Baekhyun goes on a couple of music shows and SC don’t get anything.

-Superm are announced in August.

-Superm are announced to tour immediately after debut.

-EXO and Superm clash and KaiBaek are running through airports to get to the other.

-EXO comeback in nov a week promo happens, the album sales drops hugely compared to DMUMT/LS, the song did meh in charts and the hype was low, album chart at 188 on BB200 which was a major disappointment after DMUMT placement.

-EXO ends tour on 30th/Dec.

-Chen announce marriage and pregnancy a week after that.

-EXO announce hiatus.

-EXOs last year as a group was wasted.

“They debuted as soloist/duo/superm” two things can be true yes that happened but EXO is still a group and that still means there are fans who expected group activities before hiatus,

Are you missing your favorite group and wish they could just post a picture together or something? Worry not dear reader, I'm a professional when it comes to getting ghosted ( ╹▽╹ ).

Method 1: Remember The Good Times.

The easiest way to console yourself from the emptiness they left is to simply remember all the goods times. Remember all the fun promotions. Remember your experience to listening their new song or album. Remember watching their MV for the 1st time. Remember all the discussions and 1st opinions. Ah yes, the good times.

Method 2: Rewatch Content

You're sitting in the room all by yourself and you're quite bored. You think to yourself I remember my favorite group and all their fun activities. Oh no! You now miss your favorite group what are you to do?. Oh yes, you can rewatch some of your favorite content from them. You may be able to see hidden details you never noticed before. Oh what's this? You binged their content do much you remember almost everything from it (・o・). Impressive or scary that you were able to achieve such an act or perhaps you miss them unbelievably much.

Method 3: Search For Obscure Content

Perhaps there is content you haven't seen before because it's not popular within or outside your fandom. You would like to see this because you have technically new content to watch (☆▽☆)

Method 4: Interacting With The Fandom

Perhaps you would like to talk to others who share their love for your favorite group and would like to hear their favorite moments or their opinions. Don't worry reader it's quite simple. Just head to a social media platform and search for your favorite group. You'll see people talk about them. If you don't want to interact with them, you simply just have to read the comments. Oh but simply searching for them may not be enough. You may something that's not related to them at all. You could search for them or inside jokes from your fandom.

Method 5: Binge their Music

You may be in the mood to listen to your favorite group and decide to binge all of it. Oh no! You listened to it all and wish they more music. What are you to do? Listen to all again of course ʘ‿ʘ. You could always see other people's opinions on the song id you wanted

Method 6: Talk About Them

No one else is talking about them and very sad about that (｡•́︿•̀｡). Well you need only to bring them up and start a discussion. Ah much better( ꈍᴗꈍ). Now you can show everyone your appreciation for them.

Oh No! How unexpected! Your Twitter timeline

I know comparisons are inevitable because it's a group consisting of members from different groups. But so tired of the SuperM hate. Can't you just be happy for Girls on Top (couldn't think of a better name SM?). I'm just feel so drained . I already miss SuperM so dearly but now I have see this crap too (๑´•.̫ • `๑). Of course it happened on a Sunday....

"Ended SuperM" "SuperM disbanded" etc etc. Like aren't you guys tired of it all. Do you nothing better to do in your life? Just be happy for them without insulting SuperM. I just....don't have the energy for this....

And I already see people hating on GoT. People just don't change do they?

Anyway I continue to miss SuperM with all my heart (´ . .̫ . `)

So according to this article

Girls On Top is a theme-based unit and lineup will vary from theme to theme, meaning all girl group members under SM will become a member at one point in their career! The first unit consists of 7 members: BoA, Taeyeon, Hyoyeon, Seulgi, Wendy, Karina, and Winter. This unit is called 'GOT The Beat' and they will open the door for this new project.

This unit is based on intense dance songs and performances.

So this more like NCT U than SuperM, but we have the print of SuperM. I don’t know what I should except, I have too many questions. But the positive things is that we will see more concepts, different type of songs, and new faces!

At least, everyone is happy, I saw a lot of complaints and disappointment because peaple want to see an idol more than another, or because their favs are not in, especially mys who was worried about pushing Karina and Winter, so this is the best that SM could do.

Im really curious, what combinations do want to see?

Personally I will love to see Sunny, Joy, Ningning and Yeri together :) I think they match well !

WHY IS NOBODY TALKING ABOUT THAT BRIDGE.

THAT BRIDGE HAS ME ON CH*KEHOLD! Like first of all we start with Taemin, who has insane presence and boom, Baekhyun hits you with that "Never seen a mountain too big for me, i'm gonna be all right. Got forever on my mind." That last part harmonized with Ten. ALL OF THAT IS JUST 👌. Especially how Baekhyun sang "all right." Has me on my knees.

Please don't tell me that I'm the only one who loves (understatement) that bridge?

Disclaimer: I don't really see people talking about this, and that's the reason I am putting this opinion on this subreddit, so I apologize in advance if I accidentally posted a popular opinion. Please read the whole thing before picking :)

The concept of SuperM really leads to the need to cycle through members. SuperM is a group of idols from SM from various boy groups (mostly NCT) formed with the idea of it being a supergroup. With that said, they picked only idols that had not yet enlisted for this group. Kai is likely going to enlist very soon and both members from EXO already have. That takes away all members of the group that are not from NCT. There is also a member currently in hiatus. Should Kai enlist before Lucas comes back, SuperM will only have 3 active members, all of which from NCT.

This would be fine if NCT was a temporary group but, according to SM, it is certainly not. As of now, assuming Kai enlists before the next SuperM comeback, they will not be able to come back before 2023, unless they want to just be an NCT subunit for a comeback. It just doesn't make sense to do that, especially when there are members of EXO and SHINee who have finished enlistment, like Xiumin and Key. It makes sense to cycle them, or other idols that are out of enlistment, into SuperM until the absent members can return to the group. This concept would also be beneficial for when/if Taeyong enlists, NCT grows, and idols from EXO and SHINee cut ties with SM. This just seems beneficial to the group

SuperM are musical icons and, it's time for their to receive their jop crown aka headline the SuperBowl Halftime. Their many albums spawned major hits across the globe and inspired a ton of the talent in the industry today. They are also the most certified folk/hip hop/rock/pop/indie/Jop glam artist of the Millennium. Really, They're up there with the Bee tee ass’s, Flop pink’s, Jay why papi's etc and no amount of "sperm is bad", "sperm has lookass", "peaked with Jopping" comments will ever change that.

The SuperBowl Halftime is a grand platform for an artist and I truly believe SuperM has earned their place in music history and would do it justice!

I do feel music fans tend to toss them aside as a possibility because they think it'll just be a group of joppers singing about jumping and popping but like who cares? SuperM are rock n roll superstars!They are one of the few who really knows how to captivate and bring the energy live - whether it's something like a heart wrenching ballad ala "Tiger Inside" or a more, trippy, electronic funk joint "No Manners" They've got something for everyone! Though I am one of the few who would love an intimate, halftime show of indie bangers like "Dangerous Woman" and "Better days". I really am more of an indieHead than a kooophead tbh lol.

I am aware that yes, SuperM isn't as huge as They once was, so they would probably need another headliner to balance things out, which leads me to............ Girls. many of their good friends are Girls! they could invite æspa or someone.

Anyways, it's getting late, so I'm joppin' off , haha get it? Nah of course ya don't.

/uj source

I'm not a fan of theirs anymore and I don't really need "them" texting me lmao

Do you say NCT one twenty seven or NCT one two seven or NCT twelve seven.

I have tried to find Superm's fandom name but I'm not sure which one is the correct one.

If I'm being honest with y'all, I was extremely excited when SM announced GOT's debut. I was expecting their debut to be a run the world/girl power anthem (basically thought they would be a female SuperM), but no, instead SM gave us a literal pick me anthem. I'm not blaming any of the girls because I know that they weren't responsible for writing "Step Back", it's just that my problem is that their group name literally Girls On Top and for those who may not know, Girls On Top is actually the name of a song by BoA that was released in 2005 and the song is basically about women empowerment yet GOT's debut song is literally about bringing women down, OVER A MAN. It's clearly obvious that "Step Back" was written by a man at this point.

Now why do I think that GOT was just created to "temporarily replace" SuperM? As we all know, SuperM can't really promote right now since Baekhyun and Taemin are in the military right now and all the members (except for Ten, Lucas, and Mark) have to serve in the military and along with that Lucas has been on hiatus since August and we are still unsure when he will be returning or if he will even be returning. It made me really mad knowing that SM gave their male supergroup such powerful, empowering songs like Jopping, 100, Tiger Inside, One (Monster+Infinity), We Do etc. and then they gave their female supergroup a literal pick me anthem. I have this very bad feeling that once all the Korean SuperM members return from the military and Lucas returns from hiatus SM will throw GOT into the infamous dungeons of dungeons.

Give me a random word and I'll try to associate it to SuperM. Let's see how creative I can get (◡ ω ◡)

Ex: Strawberry. Strawberries are red, but people also use pink to represent them which reminds of that time Mark had lava lamp pink hair for SuperM promotions. Which I specifically think about his pink mullet from Tiger Inside.

Every week I see a post on kpop reddit about how SuperM should have been a rotational group, especially now that Baekhyun and Taemin are enlisted and Kai will soon join them. I have to say, as a SuperM supporter/ Spermie/ Nova, this is such a hurtful thing to see time and time again.

No one wants their favourite members in their favourite groups to seem replacable. No one wants their favourite groups to have members removed or replaced or rotated so why would SuperM fans? As a fan, I love the original lineup (I'm neutral about Lucas for now, until we get a statement or more information) and I want them to stay the same.

Every kpop boy group goes through an enlistment period and I don't see fans saying they should be rotational or questioning the line up. I find it ironical how most non fans use any chance to discredit SuperM's success (both their albums debuted at 1 and 2 on Billboard respectively, sold out tour arenas, 700k total album sales), yet they all seem to want their favourite members in SuperM instead.

It was in fact Capitol that approached SM with the idea of SuperM and Lee Soo Man who chose the members in order to create a group filled with charismatic stan attractors and aces. I'm not saying there aren't other amazing artists at SM but SuperM members are in SuperM for a reason.

Moreover stability is very important in promoting a group in the west, where people already struggle with learning foreign names and faces. A rotational group would be very hard to promote and sell in a market that values close bonds between members and a fixed line up.

I can understand the desire to see SM artists from different groups perform together but then we can always wish for a new mixed, perhaps even coed, group instead of wanting SuperM to be rotational.

Lastly, SuperM has done pretty well in the short time they've been active. Not only do they boast an impeccable discography, they've also brought in the promised revenue through tours, sales and endorsements. Their success might not be explosive but they've displayed great potential and its unfortunate that the pandemic through a wrench in their works.

Mommy GOT the SuperF🙋‍♀️, loves daddy SuperM🙋‍♂️ very much

The baby is named Super Junior 👼

The family trio of SM is complete 👨‍👩‍👧

Let’s pretend there are no restrictions in place such as enlistment or military service. Who do you think should have been in SuperM instead of Lucas?

I think that they wanted to keep a balance between which groups are represented. My thoughts:

1. Either Shinee Key or Minho. Minho had the visuals, similar to Lucas according to some, and of course much more experience and expertise. Key would be fantastic because it would add another vocalist and his fantastic personality, not to mention he speaks English. The only reason I wouldn’t want a Shinee member is because I think they would have been the leader, and I really enjoyed seeing Baekhyun grow as the leader.

2. EXO Chen, but that would make the group too EXO heavy. But his voice would have made all the recordings much stronger.

3. NCT Jaehyun has visuals and is a decent singer, so he could be an OK choice. (EDIT to add that I can’t believe I forgot to add that Jaehyun speaks English which is a big plus.) Taeil is the best NCT vocalist by far, but I don’t think he’d fit in at all nor has the star power. Johnny certainly would help because he has the American humor and is an a English speaker, but I don’t think he’s on par in talent. Plus they don’t need another rapper. Any NCT 127 members would skew the group too much towards NCT though.

Who would you have chosen? I understand why SM picked Lucas. It’s too bad he messed it all up.

My thoughts

SUPERM, was marketed as the Avengers of Kpop silly ofcourse, but then you look at the members and you realize this was actually to show 7 solo artists they wanted to push in the future.

Taemin- already had his solo career but more exposure isn't bad.

Baek - launched his solo singles at the same time.

Kai - launched his solo career at the same time

The NCT 4 - ten, Lucas, Tae, and Mark looked to be the 4 soloists SM was going to push for this next gen in a couple of years.

I never saw it as a real group, it was a marketing machine to connect with their og groups and solo endeavors for the US market.

Also are they gonna try to make them a real group or are they just a temporary project that’ll release like one song?

[I put this under general because I discuss multiple things within this post. Please do let me know if I need to change it and I will do so accordingly <3]

Let me start off by saying that I used to be an OT23 nctzen before everything that came out about Lucas. This whole situation has shocked me and many others. I know that this discussion can be triggering for some and while I may not go into detail on the situation I will say that if you aren't comfortable reading please do click off. You health matters the most, loves. Please do take care.

THE SUPPORT

Now I am going to open by saying that I refuse to support Lucas as of right now. This whole situation has made me feel so many emotions and it makes me want to bang my hard against a brick wall. To clarify, a soompi article came out saying that rich Chinese fans hired a private investigator on the Lucas situation and proved him innocent of everything. But here is my thing. Since the beginning we have heard from fans and fans only. People who are the accusers, everything is 'debunked' by fans. When the SA allegations came out people were saying that it was 'debunked' too.

There are major issues with saying that something such as SA is this easily 'debunked'. This is automatically putting something as big as an issue as SA into a tiny bubble where it doesn't seemingly matter. SA is never easily provable or even easily proven false. SA is a huge problem and to make it seem like not a big deal is disgusting. Another thing is that assuming the victims are lying automatically is also hurtful. It makes it seem like all of these people who bravely chose to speak out are invalid. WE STILL DON'T KNOW weather or not it's true until something is done legally.

This article only talks about how claims made by certain accts. Are men or don't live in the places they claim to live in. Which is something I'm still iffy about simply bc again we are once again not hearing from pr, management, SM, or Label V. Fans have become blind in their support for this man and will do everything to try to keep doing so. With claims of debunked evidence be when the company fails to supply any evidence towards him.

THE COMPANY

SM notorious be for being low but they definitely showed their true colors with this case. First, they let the fandom to argue for multiple days on the issue. They let/made Lucas apologize and within that apology he says sorry to everyone but the victims and this apology was made before the SA accu

It has one of the sickest intros ever

Baekhyun low-high notes

Mark and Taeyong fire raps

The whole song is giving me avengers vibe like I'm gonna save the whole fucking universe when i listen to this lol

Also applause for producers from the instrumentals, lyrics and top tier chord changes.

I have seen criticism towards SuperM's music but my unpopular opinion is that the main problem with SuperM was in the lineup.

SuperM  7-member super group under SM consists of Taemin of Shinee, Kai and Baekhyun of EXO, Taeyong and Mark of NCT127, and Ten and Lucas of WayV.

If we observe the lineup we see that Kai, Taemin, Ten, Taeyong are main dancers and centers. That's 4/7 centers and dancers. Centers are supposed to lead in a performance, with so many centers their stage performances lost the wow factor.

Now for vocalist, there's only one main vocalist Baekhyun. Although Taemin is not a bad vocalist, Baekhyun had to carry the songs vocally for most part. That rises another problem. While Baekhyun is a Very good vocalist, it was evident with no strong support he couldn’t perform the songs well. On top of it SM made him do ridiculous highnotes which often seemed like out of his range. His highnotes sounded stretchy. SM should've added another vocalist for the adlibs and let Baekhyun sing on his range.

Lucas was the visual of the group, while Mark was the rapper. Personally I think both carried their purpose until Lucas's scandal broke out. SM's management should've given their idols some ethical trainning too.

Another problem with the line up was the lack of entertainers. SuperM shows were hard to watch. There was lack of humor and often time it was boring. SM should've added atleast one idol who's good at variety shows.

Overall I think the lineup should have been 1 visual, 1 entertainer, 1 rapper, 2 main vocalist, 2 main dancers.
