It's sad that girl groups are kinda not guaranteed a longer career (although it's getting better)

I was going through some old posts (to kinda soothe my mind after studying DKA and GDM iykyk) and came across posts talking about iconic ggs of the time.

There were so many big groups from midtier companies like Kara and Sistar that even managed to beat some big company groups. There was a Wonyoung like visual (can't remember the name) who was everywhere with so many cfs etc.

Now, if people talk about those times especially internationally, only big 3 ggs are mentioned as being iconic. It's like the history is being revised or sth.

This brings me back to my title. Most ggs, especially those that depend on the kgp are usually doomed to a shorter career which I genuinely don't understand. Even a group as huge and iconic as Twice (who were way bigger in their prime in Korea than even njs), suffered this but their international success pretty much protected them from a worse fate. It's so hard keeping relevance for some reason even with good music and legacy there.

Sometimes a single misstep also pretty much dooms the group. Look at Itzy who were huge at their peak.
