Why do BigBang flop internationally?

I was led to believe they were the number two boygroup internationally. If not then at least top 5. But saying their new song flopped internationally would be an understatement. It's getting nugu group levels of streams. They're getting outstreamed by treasure for god's sake.

All their fans claimed they wholeheartedly loved the song on this site yet the stats clearly show otherwise.

Why are you using akp threads with opinions from like 200 people at most to gauge the entire international community’s reception to a song lmao you do know most people don’t use this website right and there are millions of them compared to what, a thousand users here?

wdym? they're big internationally during their peak era.

Their whole career is built on "we're ugly but talented, not like others" and more than half of their fanbase is Korean men who cannot stan beautiful men. They're nugus outside korea.

Outside Asia would be more realistic. They literally had to hire stadiums for their fanmeets in China.

You say that like you think Bigbang were trying to appeal to international fans with this comeback. They released an unpromoted Korean language digital single aimed at their majority Korean fanbase, and you're pretending to be confused that it didn't hit number one on Billboard?

Erasing the impact of kgroups is a kfan's pasttime.

BB was big outside asia yall r fun

Asia was always the place they did best. They are/were massive in S.K, China and most of SEA. Not a fan of them at all but at their peak their were definitely one of if not the top group internationally, they just belong to a different era.

They are ugly, but that has nothing to do with them not being popular so do not bring in how ugly they are because them not being pretty is ugly to say, on top of that they are old.

Because others are doing better what made Bigbang unique in 2nd gen.

Not number one on billboard but certainly not gaining streams worse than ncts more unpopular songs. Worse than O.O, jikjin and future perfect.

I mean, theyve done bigger tours than any other group other than BTS, so yes, id say they were pretty succesful in that regard.
