LE SSERAFIM’s North American Success Sparks 4th-Gen Girl Group Debate

An Instiz discussion asked whether LE SSERAFIM could currently be considered the most successful fourth-generation girl group in North America.

The original poster said the question came to mind after seeing a Billboard related post. While noting that they were not very familiar with girl groups, they wondered how LE SSERAFIM compares when considering factors such as digital music performance, touring, and overall recognition in North America.

The poster also questioned whether being under HYBE gives the group an advantage in the market, while mentioning NewJeans as another group they believed had achieved particularly strong results before their current hiatus.

Netizen Reactions

The sampled comments generally agreed that LE SSERAFIM is performing strongly in North America, particularly in touring, although several users felt there is no single fourth generation girl group that clearly dominates the market.

1. Yeah, the gaps between their North American tours are short, and the scale keeps getting bigger.

2. Yeah, they seem to be the biggest in North America.

3. I heard there’s another group touring on an even bigger scale than them, though.

4. They’re all pretty similar. There isn’t really a 4th-gen group that overwhelmingly dominates North America.

5. They’re all pretty close, but if you absolutely had to rank them, LE SSERAFIM seems to be doing pretty well.

6. If you combine everything, then yeah, I guess that’s right.
