Recently, a discussion among Korean netizens has emerged regarding the future of K-pop girl groups with an all-Korean member lineup, especially from major entertainment agencies.

One netizen began the discussion after they shared on social media wondering if Red Velvet would be one of the last girl groups with all Korean members. The netizen wrote on social media X, "It seems like Red Velvet might be the last all-Korean girl group created by a major entertainment agency. With the population declining, the number of Korean beauties will decrease, and the Korean market itself will shrink. To ensure a steady supply of beauties and secure markets, it’s impossible to go against the global trend of inbound and outbound expansion."

However, other Korean netizens refuted the argument by naming more girl groups with all Korean members that debuted after Red Velvet.

One netizen countered the speculation by sharing a video clip from an old Korean drama, where an actress repeatedly says, '있지 (it ji or ITZY),' which is "You see," in Korean.

Other netizens joined the conversation also pointing out that NMIXX from JYP Entertainment also has all Korean members.

Korean netizens commented:

"This is so funny."

"NMIXX also has all Korean members."

"This meme is perfect every time I see it."

"ITZY!! ITZY!!"

"I was wondering what this was about."

"I think there are other girl groups with all Korean members."

"This is so hilarious every time I see it."

"ITZY!!!!"

"I saw the title of the post and was about to be disappointed since Red Velvet might be the last all-Korean member girl group but then I laughed so hard."

"FYI, NMIXX is all Korean too. Lily has Korean nationality."
