Are we gonna pretend that most blinks didn’t buy their fav albums on Ktown?

Quote from Jenchulichaengbp

That’s in China. It’s not first week it’s first day.

So most blinks don’t buy their favs albums in ktown

Quote from sheryllee3

YG announced USA tour tickets about the same time as Blackpink album release so of course blinks are going to prioritize buying concert tickets than albums. And if they have money to spare, they’re gonna chose the cheaper option which is buying it in ktown4u

☝️

It doesn't help that the tix were expensive

I thought people from the U.S. don't buy from ktown4u? The shipping cost is ridiculous to ship to the U.S.

They bought from local K-pop shops like choice LA that claim they count for billboard but they don't lol

Quote from killthisfenty

It does if you’re from the US ofc

Does y’all really think most blinks bought on kTOWN4U. Chinese bought over 800k albums from KTOWN.

Nah they bought like 600K or so

Rest is international blinks

Loads of blinks bought from local K-pop shops in their country that sold the box set at $20-$25 like choice LA

Also let's face it, international sales were lacking...there's a reason YG didn't do a breakdown for the albums shipments 💀

Asia hard carried

Quote from Jenchulichaengbp

And it doesn’t count on billboard 200. And we all know album sales in K-pop are mass buying mostly for every group.

Actually, for some time now it does count to BB200 (for people that live in US)

"Ktown4u online/ offline album sales numbers will be provided and reflected on the sales number of Ktown4u Chart, Billboard Chart,Hanteo Chart and Circle Chart. *Only products marked with the Billboard mark are reflected on the Billboard chart."

Not a Blink but I have yet to buy an album from ktown4u. I include shipping fees in the total cost. I tend to buy from local shops.
