A term often used as a sad excuse for people to show their insecurity about their tastes in music.
In reality, there is no such thing.
People who claim they were "born in the wrong generation" often have difficulty understanding the fact that music today is so much more than West and Bieber while forgetting that (lets face it) popular music (and society in general) from the 60s to the 80s wasn't perfect either.

Person 1: I was born in the wrong generation. The music was so fantastic compared to today's garbage.
Person 2: Sure about that? I wouldn't wanna live in a world where segregation was still a thing, a war was happening in Vietnam and the world was still trying to recover from WW2. And who says all music today is dull EDM? Make an effort to find a band or solo artist who writes music with passion and spirit. They are out there.

Get the Star wars Generation mug.As introduced during BTS' 2021 United Nations Speech, COVID-19 has made the young generation feel like they're the 'lost generation,' a term originally coined by Gertrude Stein. From BTS' speech, "It was a time for us to mourn, for the things that COVID-19 took away from us, a time to discover how precious each and every moment we had taken for granted was."
BTS then propose the term 'welcome generation' to be more fitting to describe today's youth, a generation that embraces change and a generation that's characterized by extreme perseverance. "We thought the world stopped but it continues to move forward, I believe that every choice that we make is the beginning of change, not the end. I hope that in this new world we can say to each other: 'Welcome'."
The idea can also be connected to the South Korean N-po generation neologism. It describes the generations who gave up on n number of things, including relationships, marriage and children due to socioeconomic pressures. More modern n-po generations are said to be giving up even more things like hope, dreams and life. BTS has referenced it in songs like Dope and Baepsae/Silver Spoon.

"Instead of COVID's 'lost generation', a more appropriate name would be the 'welcome generation' because instead of fearing change, this generation says "welcome" and keeps forging ahead" - BTS at the United Nations

Get the Welcome Generation mug.Basically a kid who believes he/she was born in the wrong generation.
It's not necessarily 2010s kids, but pretty much every kid of every generation because to tell you the truth, every kid from the past complained about their own generations. For example, people who grew up in the 1980s complained about the 1990s, and people who are growing up in the 2010s are gonna complain about the 2020s so this is really nothing new at all.

I used to think like a wrong generation kid, but then I grew up and realized that people will always be unsatisfied with their current life situations and it seems that all previous generations had plenty of things wrong with them too. At first I thought this current generation was the worst but it really is just as bad as it always has been.
