Other netizens agreed with the original poster as they boasted about the “Golden Era” of K-Pop:

[+315 / -282] Wow, those five groups at that time were no joke, memories ㅠ I think the only group who is still at their peak is BIGBANG..

[+252 / -12] Ahㅠㅠㅠㅠ Does anyone remember BangGirl? BIGBANG and Wonder Girls did collaboration stages and shared waiting rooms during the year-end music festivals, all the fans shipped them ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ I was a BangGirl fan, oh the memories of my student days…

[+251 / -40] SHINee was so cute because they were just babies, they steadily rose into popularity with ‘Ring Ding Dong’ being their peak but they still stand on top without a downfall.

[+183 / -41] The kids here won’t agreeㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ These kids think that EXO is Korea’s legendary idolsㅋㅋㅋ

[+109 / -52] The dislikes are probably all friggin EXO kids ‘My obbas are the best what do you mean 5 top fandoms..’

 

[+64 / -3] I miss themㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ I was in elementary school at the time and now I’m in high school..
