yeah people fail to see this and it has been noticeable I think I've seen an article about youtube music being bigger in Korea now

yes here it is

I don't know but seeing boy groups charting that well on melon lately confirmed it for me since it's so unusual unless you are BB or BTS.

Quote from 3ne

They still use melon more than they use youtube music currently, though in the future youtube may overtake melon at the rate things are going.

They don't use Melon more.

*edit: just saw where someone posted it. Koreans use YouTube Music more.

Melon has hemorrhaged users and lost massive amounts of marketshare.

I'd equate Melon to Facebook, or back in the day, MySpace.

One's dead and there other is dying.

Melon won't be around in 5 years. It's a dinosaur.

Also, Koreans aren't taking to Spotify. I'd look for them to not put effort in the Korean market anymore.

It's why no one can hit 1 million ULs in the first day anymore.

This isn't 2015 and Melon isn't a gauge of the general public's interest.

Besides 2 groups, no boy group will get the public's attention.

Trust me, they aren't listening to boy groups.
