What's going on with Jyp? Are their groups falling off or there's beef with the award shows?

Really hoping next year Nmixx and The Boyz will be on this list... criminally underrated groups, please stream them ! We can also only expect Ive, Lesserafim, and Newjeans to really rise in popularity after all that is happening with Blackpink's contract renewals.. also hoping that boy groups will be more popular in 2024 after a mainly girl group dominated 2023!
