Red Velvet is often dubbed the "concept queens" of the third generation due to their ability to digest any concept.

When Red Velvet first debuted, they rocked a bright, tropical concert for "Happiness." They have songs that are cute concepts, such as "Rookie" and "Russian Roulette." On the other hand, they can also be dark, as seen with "Bad Boy" and "Peek-a-Boo." They have also been refreshing, as seen with "Red Flavor" and "Power Up."

Though TWICE is well-known for their cute performances, the nine-member girl group has not been afraid of steering away from that. In the last seven years of their career, they have tried a multitude of styles and pulled all of them off easily!

As mentioned, TWICE is beloved for their cute songs, such as "What is Love?" and "Cheer Up." However, they have also rocked the elegant concept with "FANCY" and "Feel Special." In addition, "I CAN'T STOP ME" was retro-inspired, and "CRY FOR ME" was notably darker than other TWICE songs.
