Do you think rookie boy groups deserve to flop so much this year?

  • No hate just curious cause no one’s talking about rookie bgs. ATBO, Tnx, Xdinary Heroes,… all put out solid music, not to mention they’re great dancers, can play instrument, can self-produce,… but none can crack 100K sales and are absent on charts, meanwhile Lsrfm/Nwjns effortlessly sells 500K and destroy Melon/Spotify. Do you think rookie boy groups deserve better?

    Check out some of them.

    (The other 2022 MAMA Male Rookie nominees)

    I am not knowledgeable about sales, but is it like is 50k is bad, but 100k is good? They seem ok to me

  • (2/2) they seem okay to me and like do you mean it should be waaay more for the most popular boy rookies?

    yeah like all talks are about NewJeans/Le sserafim meanwhile these boy groups don’t get talked about at all. I was asking whether they deserve as much success as the girl groups?

  • They are paying for the indiscretions of past generations of boy group members. But tbh some 4th gen male idols did not learn from the indiscretions of others.
