Rank the Kpop metrics

BEG4DAWIN opinion gets the most points.

what r we gonna measure exactly? the popularity of the song or album? then unique listeners and streams, if its profit wise sales/touring maybe

I think Youtube > Spotify

Why.. ads are like promotions.

As long as they are not paying for the views, then it is ok do ad-spend, to attract views.

It is paid views tho. Ad views are added to the real views.

oh.,. I didn't know that, how does that work?

Iirc just viewing the video for 30 secs will make it count as a view for the ad. That's why to check for real non ad views YouTube charts are used. It removes all ad views. Let's just say except bts and bp and some hybe groups all have extremely inflated views.

What are all the key Kpop metrics for measuring a Song's/Album's albums and how to rank them in importance?

Let me throw out, based on the little I know.

1. Melon Unique Listeners - 1st 24 hours, total ULs in the first year?

2. Circle(Gaon) Digital Points - 1 year since release

3. Circle(Gaon) weekly digital peak

4. Weeks in the top #100 of Circle(Gaon)

5. Spotify Streams - Internationally

6. YouTube views

7. Hanteo Physical Album sales - this is very important for profits, but least important for general popularity, since it is highly fan driven, with bulk buying, crowd sourcing etc.

Propose your metrics and ranking.

Key kpop metric for measuring a song’s what? Is it popularity or success??

Just say Views are 20% less than the total for all groups.

At the end of the day all groups pay for ads, sure bigger companies can afford to pay more, but still. The difference is not huge.

Now paying view farms, that may be an issue, I do not know how YT deals with that.

TIL Gaon is Circle

Sorry corrected the OP.. Are popularity and success different things in this context?

Yes. Success is making profits but does not necessarily mean popularity whiles popularity could translate into success.

I’m trying to combine popularity with success

1. Country Charts

2. International streams: AM>Spotify>Youtube

3. Album sales: Due to the sales gimmicks it’s the least authentic metric but it does still show success

I've be meaning to make something similar for a while

what about other like merch sales and touring and cfs?
