One of the great things about K-Pop is the never ending amount of styles and concepts that artists go through. From the dark and sexy concepts to the bubbly and cute, there are no styles that K-pop artists have not done. With a new album comes a different concept that amps up the anticipation of a group's comeback. As the summer approaches and more groups are making their comebacks in the forthcoming months, which concept do you like to see more often?

Even within the world, people say that first impressions are everything, and this goes especially when groups make their debut. Oftentimes, when a girl group is preparing for their debut, they'll take on the innocent, cute image. Just look at groups such as Girls' Generation, Lovelyz, and A Pink, who perfectly encompassed the school girl image with preppy school uniform stage outfits. But here and there are groups such as ITZY and 2NE1, and BLACKPINK, rather than taking on the innocent and cute concept, resorted to a darker and edgier image.

While the bubbly, innocent schoolgirl concept is great and sweet, it feels as though it's been overly used. Even when G-Friend made their debut stage, they were heavily criticized for having a similar image to Girls Generation. So while the bubbly concept is a safe go-to, getting to see girl groups carry out a darker and edgier concept brings more versatility, not just in vocal ranges, but in outfits, hair, choreography, and performances. Take, for example, Red Velvet. Their debut was great, but as their career went on with smash hits like "Psycho" and "Bad Boy," which took on darker concepts, these two eras became unforgettable and even made a lasting impression on those who did not really have an interest in K-Pop. Even for Girl's Day and SISTAR, some of their greatest hits, such as "Alone," "Give It to Me," "Expectation," "Something," all came with portraying the femme fatale.

In comparison, when it comes to male groups, while they also do take on the schoolboy concept, most of the time they'll debut under the guise of dark and sexy, such as Stray Kids with "District 9," and ATEEZ with "Pirate King." However, interestingly enough, in contrast to their counterparts, there always tends to be an era where male singers throw off their dark and sexy image for a fun, cute, and bright concepts, like BTS with "Boy With Luv," which was a stark contrast to "Blood Sweat and Tears" and "Fire" or GOT7 with "Just Right." It is usually these eras where fans do not see intense choreography but more smiles, and laughter on stage, making their performances even more enjoyable to watch.

Whatever the concept, we can see that these artists truly put in their all for each and every single performance and comeback, whether it be dark and sexy or bubbly and cute. But when it comes down to it, which one do you think fans enjoy more: dark and sexy or bubbly and cute?
