if promo is the only reason why newjeans, ive and snsd are charting high in SK why do some groups flop with promo?

stop discrediting groups or making excuses by using the promo card!!!

I can name many big group comebacks this year that had so much promo and tv show appearances but still underperformed digitally

I don’t get why people demean all successful groups blaming their success on promo when they happen to outchart their faves

Trust me it have nothing with promote.

Kpoppies get dumber every year.

So now promoting on music shows, something idols have done since the first gen is an excuse for charting?? It's literally a part of kpop culture and history. The entire point is to get noticed and be successful.

Bashing a group for having sucess due to promo is like bashing someone for getting good grades by revising for exams

promo took those further, even the low ones as itzy

they were around 60 smth, chae going in that yt show took sneakers to top5 in melon

snsd was 15-20 smth, promo in vairetty took them to top 5

I've reach n1 with love dive thru dream concert

gidle constant promo on tv was what keep tomboy charting stable

public friendly song

it's not an excuse when promotion does help somi was flopping hard when she released dumb dumb and thanks to promotions she got into the top 10

Promo isn't the sole reason for success but it is obviously a way to boost success and make a song well known

Most songs chart better once promotion has begun

Not sure about NewJeans or IVE since I don't know a lot about them but SNSD has clearly shown that this is the case

promo helps but it's not the be-all end-all that some male it out to be. The group has to have some relevance or something interesting for the public to latch onto first. So many groups *cough cough boy groups* do so many music show promotions and can't even piss anywhere near the top 100 of melon let alone below.

Koreans were just digging their songs.

Promos are magic in this kchart system, its not underestimate this groups, its an actual thing. Go educate yourself with the oficial digital thread and you will see how they always explains promos are the thing that makes songs go high.

yena too

even chunha and sunmi rise from their other flop songs bc they did tiktoks, went to music shows, sunmi specially was in a lot of shows

Promo always help, come on now. It's not even discrediting them, it's a fact, if it's a group with enough hype their songs rise on charts while they're promoting.
