2012 is a notable year because that's when EXO debuted and Gangnam Style dropped, two events which strongly defined the subsequent years. Second generation definitely started in at least 2006, if not 2005 (because SuJu and SS501 are closer to later groups than earlier ones), and I think it ends around 2012. So an argument can be made that first generation ended earlier, like around 2003 with TVXQ being the first second generation group. I feel like TVXQ was closer to groups like Big Bang, 2PM, Shinee, etc than clearly first generation groups like H.O.T, g.o.d, Shinhwa, etc. First generation would be from 1996 - 2005 although groups like TVXQ and Jewelry were still popular and closer with clear second generation groups. Maybe, I can see arguments for and against. Personally I'm not sure if we're in 4th generation yet. We do not have affiliation with that subreddit, so use it at your own risk.
