Hello B8. It's time. It's time to answer the most pressing question of our age. And what better way to do so, than with a contest.

Alright, don't act like you don't know the drill now. How do you expect your tastes to be validated if you don't nominate?

If you're still not sure what's going on, don't despair. All questions will be answered in due time. Let your instincts guide you and enjoy the show.

I'm ready.

Exactly how obscure are we getting with these groups? Enough to make a decent bracket?

We will scour the annals of K-pop history until we have mathematically proven that we have found the hottest group among the hundreds of girl groups that have debuted since trot was introduced to Korea.

I was thinking a nice small bracket of 16.

Does I.O.I count?

Hmm. It is a specific composition of girls. So yes, it counts independently of its related groups.

Soloists do not count. Sorry IU. Duos also do not count. Sorry Davichi. Co-ed groups do not count. Sorry f(x). Just kidding. Sorry KARD, though.

Also feel free to nominate as many groups as you consider worthy folks. No limit to number of nominations. I will tally up the noms.

I did think of making one as groups. Specially since to my knowledge one hasn't been done before, which I think is a shame.

However, "best" is such a subjective, philosophical question ."Hottest" is measurable as we know from hotness ratings and rankings, and therefore scientific, which is of course the purpose of this contest.

Maybe we could do as groups after. I have an idea of how it would go though, being basically a popularity contest (you know what I mean). Which is also why I think hottest is a more interesting question.

edit: With all that said, everyone is free to interpret the question as they like, of course! Freedom of interpretation, it's the new civil right.

You can't leave out Suzy and Fei from Miss A.

Also,

SNSD (if they weren't already in for some reason)
Brave Girls
Brown Eyed Girls
After School
Red Velvet
T-ara

I can think of some others, but they might be more cute than hot. Dont know exactly what you are going for.

Mmm, I know what you mean. By hot I just mean attractive. So pretty and maybe even cute are good, too, doesn't have to be sexy hot.

Actually we already have 16 groups, and I have more than enough groups in mind to make a bracket of 32. So we're gonna do 32. So yeah, please go ahead and nominate them. I could set up a bracket right now but I want a couple more days to give people enough time to nominate and also for seeding purposes.

Just off the top of my head I was thinking of

CLC
Dal Shabet
Secret
Twice
OMG
Cosmic Girls

It's weird for some groups that have been around a while since they usually evolve their look over time.

I was curious if they would be separate from After School, because I agree on Raina.

Oh sorry, no sub-units. I will count it as an AS nomination. I know OC are great by themselves but I don't think it'd be right to take a spot from another group.

Pumpkin my man I got bad news.

PumpkinCoach posted...

Nah, I'd just consider them the same and everyone else should, too. Here's the problem though:

We went over 32 noms. I think 64 groups is too much, then I'd just pick whatever and there'd be no point in noms. I don't want to do 64 either. Actually I was uh scientifically trying to decide whether to drop Bestie or Hello Venus which only I've nommed but they're just both too hot and couldn't decide... now I have to ask you to drop two of your noms as well... Except Sistar and Rainbow which I really think should be in. And EXID. And I'll ask you to consider Bestie and Hello Venus as well... :cringe face: sorry. I guess we could drop Bestie and lump them with EXID lol... well it's your choice.

So nominations are done. I know there's still lots of hot groups that haven't been mentioned but what can you do. I guess one should be glad we got 32 without much problem.

Yeah, a lot of hot groups still left. I wanted gugudan in but I didn't want to just have what I like. Actually as the organizer I'm more interested in other's opinions. Alright, I'll drop your last 3 noms and Bestie, okay? I think that's the most fair. Feels bad but what can you do.
