Comparing The Best Kpop Labels 2024

This is why KQ Entertainment and ATEEZ are so impressive. Not only did they debut from a relatively unknown company, with very limited funds and little to no connections, at a time when the market was oversaturated with new groups. But, they even survived the pandemic while not being able to tour (arguably what earns them the most profit) and still came out the other side swinging.

lol the visual representation of ATEEZ at the end.

So many people hate to admit their success. Bottom line, they are special and deserve even more praise from this cutthroat industry

[idontkniw]

and this is why ateez's success is such a miracle. they really rose to the top of fourth gen in a time where groups from the big 4 debut every year despite being from an unknown company. i'll never stop being proud of all they have achieved, from performing in theatres and now stadiums, appearing on BB200, breaking records, being the role models of multiple active idols and more. from getting 84k views in the first 24 hours for their debut to 19 million... their success is just insane and they truly deserve their given title 'fourth gen leaders'.

8:08 Correction: The group's name is UNIS, not Un1verse. You're welcome. 😃

Back when it was easier for groups from smaller companies to be recognized, we have more music styles too. But now we have a certain big company buying music charts and sales, it's diminishing the hard work these smaller groups put in, which ultimately affects the consumers.

Imo I never payed attention to S2 but when kiof showed up I immediately started paying attention

Ilysm kookielit keep posting about Kpop thank you to u I know much more about K-pop

[anipacify]

TXT was already in big hit before hybe btw . Enhypen's heeseung was also a bighit trainee

[nightappple]

Imagine debuting but nobody knows that you did...😢

[joseortanez]

ATEEZ are a one of a kind group. For a group to succeed in this overly saturated industry and go up against BIG 4 agencies is mind boggling to me. They have shown to us that it isn’t just about hard-work, but you also have to be extremely innovative and unique to thrive in the Kpop industry.

[onlybangtanever]

Whats crazy is even if you succeed you'll be called a flop if your album doesent sell atleast over 200k copies in the first few weeks

[elesyeen]

Honestly whether y'all agree or not BTS changed not only the kpop game but also how company's function I have ulterly respect for them standing ALONE against the whole kpop industry while they had no one on their back

0:49 Correction, HYBE wasn't around in the late 1990's and early 2000's. There was only BANG SI-HYUK who produced music for JYP at that time.

Successfull Girl Groups belonging from small companies generation wise (according to me)
3rd generation:- mamamoo, Momoland, dreamcatcher
4th generation:- Everglow, loona, fifty fifty ( before scandal)
5 th generation:- kiss of life, badvillan (maybe)

[nightappple]

Gosh, I can only imagine how trainees in smaller agencies feel. It's like trying to make it in a very saturated market.

[B_a_Smeraldo]

BTS has the best story in kpop!! Omg their journey is nothing sort of legendary! They debuted under an bankrupting company almost disbanded in 2015 and here they are one of the biggest artists in the world! They're so inspiring for those small artists under small labels! You can make it if you have the passion and dedication!

[rhynzard]

That's why G Idle and Ateez are so special

[lolonatsu]

Starship-, KQ-, and Cube Entertainment are one of some that are still able to compete with the Big 4

[maidatariq]

Bts really made hybe bcz of them bighit gained popularity they opened the gate for other artist in western industry and im so happy and proud of them bcz they derseve it

[damecuteUK]

Let’s just ignore the fact Motown existed and make up that Kpop magically introduced the trainees system through jpop.

[USVAGuy]

Probably the one company that is doing the best overall with the least notoriety in Korea is Dreamcatcher Company. Dreamcatcher has become successful in spite of the issues the industry and fandom have presented in Korea. There seems to be a concerned effort by larger companies, media, and fandom to slander, ignore, or handwave anything that Dreamcatcher does in Korea. Internationally fandom and media seem to look at Dreamcatcher in a completely positive manner. It is disheartening to see a group and company that is at the top of their game in every aspect treated so horribly by others.
