Am I the only one siding with Warner Music Korea in this Fifty Fifty case?

Quote from Varenka

I find the vocals of Aran and Sio as the primary reason for the song's success not convincing because streams and views were largely concentrated and remain so on "Cupid." It didn't translate well to other songs in their discography, which also heavily feature Aran's and Sio's vocals over Keena's and Saena's. It seems clear in that respect that the song itself is what's popular and not so much the components that makeup the song, further boosted by being released around Valentine's Day.

Because they didn't do jack shit to promote themselves

However it will be a different story with Ablume.

That doesn't prove that Melon is a factor in her success.

Without the ironclad control of Melon her fame would have been much smaller than its actual reach.

Quote from jimeous

So you're fine with anyone taking over a business without the Owner's consent just because they have money?

If the owner is incompetent and the person making the promise is more capable, why not?

That is M&A.

Quote from bbgc

Then we are back to, why didn't the same Melon then taken the 'fame' of other Loen/Kakao acts to any reach, most of them were stuck at nugu. After IU, only IVE have attained Superstardom.

Again 'meh'

If they do it for everyone it would be too blatant

by the time others began to get ahead IU was the primary singer of the entire Loen / Melon so no need to create a competition
