RE : how are winner doing better than ikon now?

both were hand on hand digitally but after 2-3 years of each one career, if winner didnt get n1, ikon straight up flop except for ls

now winner has more public recognition and do decently, forums also post about them way more often bc they find them funny and approachable

weren't they close success wise always? Then ikon stuff happened

Ikon lost their hitmaker so and i think Winner was more consistent though Ikon had bigger hit ls

Winner has as many #1 hits on Melon Daily chart as Blackpink and only one less than BTS.
