Well, obviously, the fans of a group "care" when their faves are "first" at something significant. The fans of a group that isn't first "don't care" about who was first. That's how it has always been. Like the way that SM promoted Aespa's 2022 performance at Coachella as them being "the first Kpop group to perform on the Coachella main stage" and that they therefore performed with "higher status" at Coachella than Blackpink. Then when it was revealed that they were actually just part of the "88 Rising" variety show act that featured dozens of different acts who performed very short 3- or 4- song set lists during off hours when the main stage wasn't being used for any big acts... and had to hurry off stage to make room for the next act in the variety show..... THEN the tune changed to "who cares?"
After seeing the videos of Mexico they are gonna be perfectly fine they really put on a good show with live mics and it was nothing but pink oceans for them super excited to see how their carrers grow :)
"Paved the way" is simply an idiomatic expression without any precise and exact definition. Of course Blinks are going to want to express pride in what Blackpink did, in a major way, before other Kpop groups did. If they use the expression "paved the way" to describe it, it shouldn't be a problem. It's true that Epik High performed there before BP did. No other really significant Kpop group did and none yet have performed at Coachella at the same level. You're leaving out the fact that BP also performed on the Sahara stage in 2019 for two nights of full-concert performances, making them the first to perform on a stage of that scale up to that time and also the first girl group/group to be invited back as headliners. While "EE" gets honorable mention, they were really a quirky novelty, husband-and-wife act from Korea. Not really Kpop and they did not perform at the same level/stage venue that either Epik High or Blackpink did. They are so obscure in terms of "Kpop" that at this point the only reason anyone knows about them is when someone digs up their name (trivia question research style) as "proof" that neither Blackpink nor Epik High was the first group from Korea to perform at Coachella. (And note that the term "perform at Coachella" covers a wide spectrum. Performing in a tent during off hours in a corner of the complex constitutes "performing at Coachella". And so does performing as a headliner on the main stage for a livestream global audience of around 200 million and an on-site audience of over 100K people in attendance, pursuant to being personally invited by the director of Coachella, who traveled to your concert to extend the invitation in person. These two different scenarios don't really compare in any meaningful way, even though you can technically describe them both as a "performance at Coachella". Also, 2NE1 did not perform at Coachella before BP did and did not perform there while still active as a group. They performed in 2022 as part of the 88 Rising variety show that simply hosted a stage for many Asian acts to do quick on-and-off short sets in quick succession. 2NE1 appeared very briefly (and did about 3 songs) and had to quickly vacate the stage to make room for the next act in the series. It was a 2NE1 reunion of sorts and got attention for that. Since 2022 is AFTER 2019, you literally cannot say that 2NE1 did Coachella before Blackpink. (Aespa was part of the same variety show in 2022.) Blackpink's 2019 Sahara Stage performance was also BEFORE Big Bang got the invitation for 2020. It's misleading to cite Big Bang and 2NE1 as examples of Kpop acts invited to Coachella before Blackpink, since that is simply not correct in any sense. Their invites both came AFTER BP performed at Coachella. You can say that Epik High and Blackpink each "paved the way" in their own way. Blackpink has clearly set a benchmark that nobody else had achieved up to that point or has yet equaled to date, with both the 2019 performances on the Sahara and the 2023 headlining concerts on the main stage (which itself set records for live-viewing and audience size...not just for a Kpop act.) I get the desire to show some balance and put BP fans "in their place" so to speak. But you went a bit too far with the downplay effort. Blackpink's significance for Kpop at Coachella was not just the fluke of timing and luck that you're trying to make it out to be and it can't be blended in with the prior performances of EE and Epik High and described as being basically just a simple continuation that isn't anything special in Kpop history.
They can say what ever hate them i dont give a dmn, i saw them vcha video in mexico they perform well as in very well i love the girls they young and talented they will be the group of the year grammy award hahahhahah!
blackpink was def the first actual kpop group mainstream act at coachella before they even headlined and most of the people you listed were after blackpink minus the duo and epik high😭 mama let's research
Have you forgot BTS was the first one that came to America before anybody else did they are mainstream even to this day plus they renew their contract before they went to military so when they come back 2025 they still are going to be mainstream they pay for K-pop I'm putting a simple way they paid the way for K-pop to be easier for some ya'll don't know History kpop y'all think blackpink was the only one dead wrong BTS was the first don't forget about that let me guess you don't like them for some reason before you say they paid with for K-pop look up for the real ones that actually did pay the way you give me a false evidence already even though blackpink pay the way in their own way BTS was the first even to this day you can look it up on Google you can ask other people that know about it and other idols that say BTS was the first not blackpink
@@tavaresbush8654 "Have you forgot BTS was the first one that came to America before anybody else did"... The topic here is Coachella. BTS never performed at Coachella. As for the "first" in America, BTS clearly was not the first Kpop group who "came to America". Certainly BTS has had a huge impact and the scale of their success and impact in America has been quite impressive. You can say they "paved the way" in several areas in terms of impact and popularity. It's silly to pretend that they own the "paved the way" expression in all categories of activity, impact and achievement. It's not an official award or title. It's an idiomatic expression. And BTS fans have spent so much of their careers bad-mouthing and hating on other groups (especially Blackpink)...that in some contexts it would be more accurate to say that they attempted to "block the way".
@@TEAM__POSEID0N it not bts fault blame toxic fans not every army is toxic plus blackpink is the first one to perform at Coachella valley music festival I'm proud of them jk and 1997 line other artists went there to support them
