dahm people really didn't let up on his fanbase.

what's so bad about trot though?

okay lowkey i get those quitting melon-

if every top 100 playlist on spotify was full of an artist i don't really vibe with it'd probably drive me crazy as well

LYW is basically a BG on steroids. His UL counts are mid af, his new single only got like 120k peaks, as of a few days ago. But Top 100 doesnt just use ULs obviously.

quitting melon cause he is constantly on the top 100 there sounds dumb???

unless melon users are forced to listen to the top 100 or something

For over a decade the top 100 (melon mainly, but basically all other services had the same system) realtime chart was the primary way koreans listened to and discovered new music. This is slowly changing with charts changes and competition mainly from youtube, but id say the majority of causal listeners still listen to music this way.

The services changed their charts because of the fandoms of kpop idol groups masstreaming and playing the system to line up their faves song on the chart every morning and they were losing users because of it because people did not want to hear 20 boygroup songs when they went to work in the morning. They have now been replaced by LYW.

His fanbase is wealthier and more dedicated than any other domestic fanbase has ever been. It will not be long until he is the most streamed act ever in korea (beating out BTS, EXO, IU etc) while having one of the worst stream to daily listeners ratio ever ( a small amount users streaming his songs 24/7)

Yes and no.

In Korea yes. Worldwide no.

So where it really counts, because Korea doesn't matter that much anymore, is he will never have multiple 40,000+ size concerts each year, whereas the top kpop groups will.

Basically how its been used yes, melon and other korean services were late to the party when it comes to personal playlist etc.

kpop stans being beaten at their own game by aunties and grannys

[+153, -35] I'm so sick and tired of trot! Enough's enough. There's no difference between idols and their hook songs and trots.

I'M SICK AND TIRED OF THIS GENRE BECAUSE THERE NO DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THIS GENRE AND THE GENRE I LIKE?

huh?

What?

[+46, -5] The culture of music is changing with the times. The elderly are learning to enjoy their retirement by listening to music and healing. Invest in yourself. Life is short.

But this is definitely a vibe. Seems people are really salty and others for liking something they dont like?

Also can't related to the whole "playlists are being ruined by it", because I personally never listen to Spotifys created playlists, I make my own

Especially Top 100 type stuff. I do NOT need Ed Sheeran and crud like that assaulting my precious ears

I'm in my fifties but confess I've never heard of him. I could check him out I suppose and find out what all the fuss is.
