Possibly confusing title, have there been any groups that have had lore throughout their idol careers all tie together? Most of the time, groups only have set lore between album trilogies and once the trilogy ends, they drop it and never reference it again. Or they just end up dropping the lore.
For example, AESPA. Their whole concept with avatars was interesting but they ended up dropping it. (I know they “technically” escaped kwangya) The only thing we have left from that is Naevis, and she was possibly the worst aspect of it. They are better off now; the concept/lore of everything was ruining their song quality. But I do think there was potential to execute that concept well and be able to continue it throughout their careers.
I see people bring up LOONA a lot regarding lore, controversial opinion but I don’t think they handled their lore very well. I think the company set up a very intricate universe and the fans helped expand on that. The only issue was the members themselves had no idea about a good chunk of it. There was an interviewer who mentioned asking LOONA about lore questions and none of them understood it, the manager made them skip the lore questions. Not blaming the girls for that, I think their previous company had many issues. I have seen some post LOONA groups try to work on expanding the lore, I wouldn’t say anything has been successful though.
