The title basically sums up how I feel. I saw this tiktok that showed a bunch of older kpop group greetings and how its not common in the 5th gen to have a greeting. Obviously there are some that still do it but it feels like its in the minority rather than the majority.
Its obviously not a requirement but just something I miss and wished it still exists. It certain leaves a impression on you and when you got to kpop concerts, the fans also join in on the greeting so its a cute moment between the idols and fans.
I know that it can be kind of corny when you get older or just something you’d not want to do anymore. For example, aespa totally dropped their greating “be my ae” and just greet normally.
I remember watching the SM anniversary video with the different SM groups and you can see the shift from each generation and it was cool to see the greetings that they used to do.
Some of my favorites are TWICE, MAMAMOO, BTOB just off the top of my head.
What are some greetings you’d come up with and assign to the newer groups if you could suggest one?
I’ve been getting into RIIZE and I feel like their “we riize” (and from their song memories) they do backstage before their performances was cute and could’ve been a greeting if they wanted to do that.
