IVE making comeback on the same time with big group are actually benefiting them

i think u should stop making threads.

The thing that benefits them is releasing decent songs, nothing to do with having close release to other groups. Maybe in korean charts you could argue that, since newbeans + bp got big hits rn

Blackpink's real comeback is next month.

they just release good music

IVE release date of come back before Blackpink, and twice, they chose safe time but that becomes a blood bath time. If you do not release a great song, that will not matter because the group will destroy your full promotion.

They proved that starship could produce better songs than YG and JYP.

From a competitive point of view, it could be risky if your release can't compete.

But if you're not concerned about chart position and just want more attention to the song, it is a great strategy. It's part of the "rising tide" idea, especially if they share music show schedule and stuff.

Dreamcatcher often release close to BTS's comeback and I believe this has help a bit with attention to the group.

Twice announced before them, Twice announced their comeback date when Nayeon debuted solo and BP announced the august release too, not the specific date but it was rumored either when they released or when Twice released, in both ways it was a few days after/before IVE

But ive had way better debut uls than snsd and twice. After like has already surpassed forever 1 uls first day. So how are those groups helping in exposure for ive?
