Article talks about how girl group comebacks in March will see another influx of sexy vs innocent concepts.

Sexy concepts: easier to attract public attention, most often invited to perform at events, easy/instant income, weak fandom, rare for a sexy girl group to have a long lasting career

Innocent concepts: creates stronger fandoms, income is more long term reliant

1. [+1,055, -38] This is clearly a ploy to throw Girlfriend in between names like Soshi, A Pink, and SISTAR

2. [+795, -24] Why would SISTAR even be compared to those Glass Beads?

3. [+695, -45] Am I the only one who doesn't know who Girlfriend is...? and I check the digital charts every day.

4. [+239, -12] Girlfriend again, they're just going to get hate for being a plagiarism group

5. [+73, -6] I find nothing innocent about Girlfriend's concept... they look like Japanese athletic uniforms.

6. [+65, -3] Isn't Girlfriend that plagiarism group

7. [+61, -5] Girlfriend isn't even that popular but they keep getting their name stuck between all these popular girl groups. They're not at that level yet.

8. [+53, -5] 2NE1 and SNSD are indeed too strong to beat, I'm sure the other girl groups will do fine as long as they try hard

9. [+50, -9] Feels like any girl group with an innocent concept always has to mention SNSD or A Pink or they can't get their name out there on their own.

10. [+44, -4] Makes me realize that groups like f(x) and 2NE1 have such unique concepts. We all know that sexy or innocent concepts will only have a shelf life of 3-7 years but no one knows the expiration date for unique concepts.

11. [+44, -5] SNSD and 2NE1 are far ahead of the other groups in terms of international and domestic popularity. Girl's Day, A Pink, and SISTAR are working hard to catch up but they're still weak internationally.

12. [+49, -11] SNSD and 2NE1 are still the top... wall you can't climb over.

13. [+41, -4] Don't even know what that Girlfriend group is. Their visuals are so bad. I really wish they'd stop putting out articles with huge seniors to boost these rookies.

14. [+38, -5] This year's March is nothing compared to last year's March ㅋㅋㅋ SNSD and 2NE1 ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

15. [+54, -24] I haven't found a group that caught my eye after SNSD, 2NE1, and f(x)...

16. [+31, -2] Can't really call it an innocent concept when you're still in short skirts showing off your spankies
