If you look YT chart past 12 months, Hype boy got 510M views in a year while in Spotify they have only got 370M streams. Most of song have more views than Spotify have streams. Newjeans have some songs that perform better in Spotify like Ditto, Hurt and New Jeans, but overall they are doing better in Youtube.
But gap is pretty close compared to any other girlgroup, if we compare Blackpink, IVE or Gidle for example.
Yes, I knew
Although this is a somewhat apples to orange comparison, because I'm sure this also counts dance practices and other kind of videos as long they are correctly tagged

That is the point. Newjeans does not have replay value on their music video, if you only wanna listen to the music, so people rather choose performance or audio version over it.
Playlisting and payola wbk
I always underrate their YT performance so thanks for the update
Yep YT has more reach + various visuals to consume the song
There's a reason hylt dp is pulling 700K daily views while the MV less than 300K & it's not cause the song is diamonds lol
Have been saying about this. Their multiple versions of MV + performance ver + dance practice really spread the views.
Youtube is still a relevant gauge of popularity
Agree. I will never replaying their long ass mv with multiple versions just to listen to their songs tbh. It's better to just listen them in yt music and through their dance practice.
The only possible reason why other top 4th gen ggs outviewed newjeans on youtube is because of ads. Ador never get ads for newjean's mvs unlike those groups you've mentioned.
Edit: lmao this is why reading and comprehending is very important. I did not fully read your post op that's why i misunderstood what your point so don't mind my reply above.
someone already said this but it’s not a sensible comparison when spotify has one hype boy and youtube has x versions of hype boy.
Spotify have multiple versions of some songs too that contribute to the same stream count. Like le sserafim fearless 2023 version and 2022 version have the same amount streams. But that is not even the point. The point is people are spending more time on watching Youtube videos than listening to Spotify. YT music does not even include some random content like variety shows. That says Youtube is still far more relevant platform for kpop than Spotify.
