Hello friends! We are excited to announce another instalment of our Kpop gen rates, this time jumping into our first ever 4th gen rate, Early Gen 4 Girl Groups. Welcome to the EG4GG Rate! If you haven’t already, make sure to join r/kpoprates to stay tuned for future rate-related posts!

Deadline: Sunday, November 9th, 11:59PM Pacific (Link to a timezone converter)
How the songs were selected: The initial locked and survey lists were decided through host discussion, using a combination of r/kpop‘s artist TTT results, as well as streaming statistics and general relevance. We then held a pre-survey campaign on the discord server, where server members could suggest songs they’d like to see added to the survey. Following this, we conducted our usual song list feedback survey.
Now, without further ado, let’s introduce the 55 songs in the main rate (& the 7 songs in the bonus rate) that were selected for this rate, sorted by artist debut order:
fromis_9:
i-dle:
UNI.T:
KHAN:
Nature:
LOONA:
GWSN:
Night Aviation (The Interpretation of Dreams)
IZ*ONE:
K/DA:
DreamNote:
Cherry Bullet:
ITZY:
Everglow:
Bonus Rate:
GWSN – Tweaks ~ Heavy cloud but no rain
PinkFantasy – Tales of the Unusual
The Bonus Rate is optional and you do not have to submit a score for every song in the bonus list. If you do it, you can score none of them, all of them, or any number in between. You cannot give a 0 or 11 to any song in the bonus, as they are not part of the main rate. While it is optional, we hope you consider participating.
* Spotify Playlist
* Youtube Playlist (MV Version)
* YouTube Playlist (Audio Version)
* YouTube Playlist (Lyrics Version)
Rules:
- You must listen to and assign a score to EVERY song listed. If your ballot is missing any scores it will not be eligible and you’ll be sent a message asking you to fill in the missing scores.
- Each song should be assigned a score between 1 to 10. Decimals up to one point are allowed but any further is a no-no – 6.9 is fine, but 6.99 is not. Don’t use commas (i.e “8,8”) to separate your decimals!
- You can use ONE 0 and ONE 11 for the entirety of the rate, for your least favorite and most favorite song respectively – they are optional but HIGHLY encouraged if you feel some type of way about any given song! Comments are also encouraged but not required for such scores (except if you give a song a 0). You can add them to any song by simply typing after the numerical score, like so:
Everglow – La Di Da: 9.9 Wow this song sure is fresh and new and exciting I cannot wait to see what the community thinks of it
- This is the ONLY correct way to format a comment. Please do not include colons (ex. 9: I stan!), dashes (ex. 3.3 – This song sucks), or any other symbol after your score/before your comment as it breaks the program.
- For this rate and most future rates, we have a ballot average minimum of 4.00. In addition, if your ballot average is between 4.00-5.50, you must leave comments on your lower scores (which we define as any score that’s a 3 or lower). {Do not worry about having to calculate your ballot average, once you submit your ballot, we will tell you if you need to make changes to your ballot for it to be accepted.} ___
SUBMITTING A BALLOT:
Link to Reddit Chat to send in scores
As Reddit is (unfortunately) moving away from the private messaging system in favor of utilizing the Reddit chat system, we are forced to also adopt the Reddit chat system for messaging. You can make a copy of either the Google Docs or Pastebin ballot templates below, add your scores on your local copy/file, and send the link to your local copy/file in your Reddit Chat message to u/kpoprates.
Google Docs ballot template
Pastebin ballot template
- If the private message link is not working (or your private message exceeds the character count), please use the Google Doc template (make a copy of it to your Google Drive) for your ballot and DM it to u/kpoprates. If you message us a link to your Google Doc, PLEASE double check your permissions so that “anyone who has the link can view the document” (since the default is otherwise).
Alternatively, if you have Discord, you can message the link to your ballot to all of the rate hosts, @aidshha (u/aidshha), @yureves (u/snowswinters), and @mkh.zo (u/zo142) (please message all of the rate hosts, not just one).
Google Spreadsheet you can use for calculating averages/trends and making predictions
You can also submit the top/bottom 5 prediction form at any time.
