Why is the worst itzy song charting so high?

ok maybe not the worst but the second worst, and it is charting better than their other bad songs and previous ok releases

chaeryong went viral and koreans like this childish kind of songs

It has the classic Itzy sound, and the chorus probably sounds less jarring to Koreans who are getting their chance to benefit from the "don't know what they're saying but it sounds cute" thing, like with Tomboy's English rap. Also drunk Chaeryeong gave them a boost.

Also I think knetz had been warming up to Loco especially over the awards season period because the stages were strong. So this comeback is being viewed more warmly.

idk but it's funny right?

Because you lack taste
