With BTS at the top as the best K-pop boy group, one netizen began a discussion in an online community to choose the next best boy group in the K-pop industry.

The netizen who created the post asked other netizens to choose between Seventeen and NCT, the two popular boy groups from the 3.5 generation of K-pop groups.

Both Seventeen and NCT have an immense following all across the globe. Seventeen and NCT have been receiving much love and have been selling millions of albums.

The netizen who created the post asked other netizens to vote by clicking the 'like' button to vote for Seventeen and the 'dislike' button to vote for NCT. Korean netizens gave their votes, and 522 netizens voted for Seventeen while 341 voted for NCT.

In addition, netizens were also embroiled in a heated discussion in the comment section and commented, "I think Seventeen has more hit songs and they have better results on the charts," "I definitely think Seventeen is the next best boy group after BTS," "If we look at the album sales, NCT definitely is the next best boy group. They sold the most albums after BTS," "I definitely think Seventeen because they have 'Don't Wanna Cry' as a big hit song but NCT doesn't have that hit song yet," "Seventeen has both high album sales and digital," "I definitely think it's Seventeen because they have songs liked by the public," and "I think NCT because they're more recognized by people, no?"

Do we have to have a 1, 2, 3 ranking? Everyone has their own favorite just worry about your groups without trying to act like they are better than the next.. oh better yet cheer them all on..

Personally, I like both but I have known Seventeen for longer, so I'm much more familiar with their members and NCT's songs tend to be more hit or miss. If I had to choose a hit for NCT, it would definitely be "The 7th Sense", "Hot Sauce" is a miss for me. As for Seventeen, I like "Don't Wanna Cry" but actually prefer songs like "Home Run".
