Loona/Kep1er falling on Melon. Are you surprised?

After previous Queendoms, we have groups like Oh my girl, Mamamoo securing smash hits. However, Kep1er and Loona’s new songs are both falling on Melon despite Queendom hype. Why did this happen?

mamamoo always do well with digitals before or after queendom. omg has good songs, just lack recognition and queendom give them that so they could run with it. But you can see the moment they released boring songs, they flopped again.

kep1er and loona lack good songs and queendom 2 also flopped this outcome is expected.

Nope not surprised and do your research Queendom was not hyped at all compared to season 1.

Not to sound rude but no I'm not surpised, Loona aren't ever going to make it in SK.

Not sure what their fans were expecting this cb but queendom doesn't really work for nugu groups like Loona.

They will also never get paid considering that 8m debt isn't close to being payed off, also with chuu also leaving soon they're over.

I'm actually shocked on Kep1er's behalf but I think SK stop caring about produce groups after the rigging controversy.

Neither Kep1er nor LOONA were as big domestically as Mamamoo was when competing on Queendom so that's not a good comparison. Oh My Girl had impactful songs after Queendom. Kep1er and LOONA's releases are not.

Both of the new songs are underwhelming. One is "dreamy" and almost boring and the other has a good chorus but everything else is forgettable.

Both groups' companies are failing them imo. WAKE ONE sucks at choosing songs for Kep1er and BBC is just terrible at managing LOONA (as evidenced by Chuu wanting out of her contract). Mnet probably could've come up with better songs for both groups imo.

I hate to say it but Loona's concept wasn't good what was their label thinking? they were all going out in their queendom performances and having strong concepts and they came out with that song? their album is lackluster different from the brand they were building on

Loona’s song is so different from the image shown in Queendom so fans looking for that style would have been disappointed. The Kep1er song isn’t great. I don’t think it’s a problem with the groups but rather the song choices.

They may rise in the charts once they start promoting on music shows. However, in my opinion - i'm not surprised as both songs were unexciting and kinda meh to me.

Yeah, that's something I really don't understand. Loona delivered during Queendom's finale their baddest, most "boy-ish" song ever with POSE, and then follow it up with Flip That? That makes little sense to me. It's such a 180 that any newcomers that would have grown interested in them because of Queendom must have been left puzzled by this comeback.

People who hope for them to do good in chart is the problem.

I think the winners from this season will be viviz and bg, they already charted better than the other ggs and they only need a more exciting summer cb
