Adding this because there is a comparison post between aespa and RESCENE below.

Machine translated

‌There are many comments saying that it will be difficult for RESCENE to grow to the level of aespa.
The reason for this is, first of all, their origins—the difference between a small agency and a major corporation.
There are also comments regarding singing ability.
While idols are certainly singers,
I feel it might be a bit unreasonable to judge an idol's scalability solely based on vocal or dance skills.
Of course, idols are beings who capture the public based on being singers and music,
but I believe that intangible assets like "charm" are also a great talent for an idol.
To put it simply, this includes variety show skills that can increase intimacy, likability, relatability, and support from the public, as well as the narrative of an "underdog's reversal" due to their origins, which is part of their great charm.
Unfortunately, it is also true that this kind of charm is difficult to link directly to overseas revenue.
In a situation where language, history, and culture are all different, translating a girl group's charm directly into purchasing power
is difficult, and perhaps even impossible.
If you view the result in terms of money, no matter how many advertisements RESCENE films, how many events they attend, or how many concerts they hold,
they can never beat aespa or IVE on a financial statement, as those groups have absolute support and clearly established fandoms overseas.
Still, as long as there are no major incidents or accidents,
I am confident that RESCENE will do well for quite a long time.
I believe this is because the charm mentioned earlier has already reached the stage of emotional investment from the fandom.
And above all, they don't need to be on the same level as aespa or IVE.
As long as RESCENE serves as a model for domestic small-agency idols and plays a role in growing the market, their value will be more than sufficient.
I think this will be a very interesting case study.
