For you, you probably want to swap out the champagne taste if you are on a beer budget

iirc correctly last year aespa cbars bought 600k albums. i don't think anyone does it like them. they are really rich

This year they bought close to 1 million

Hmmm Ok fine OP didn’t say China was poor. But the fact remains that there are questions re Chinese fans and how they got rich when other fans aren’t as rich.

How do any person in any country get rich? It’s all the same. The only thing different re rich Chinese fans is that there are more of them by sheer numbers and they group up to do their projects.

I think that would be the most obvious answer

there's just more of them (us?) lol

like lets say in any one country 1% of the population purchases an album (of any kind not just kpop)

thus in SK 51million - that's 510K people

in china that would be 1.4b people aka 14m people

(assuming ceteris parabis)

obviously it would be the same logic for kpop albums

Quote from Xyverix2

Studies show that in mainland China, fandoms (fan circles) are quasi‑organized groups with strong identities and internal social pressure to show visible support (ads in subways, group album orders, birthday cafés, etc.).

Yes. And some even just contribute an amount that is lower than the album price, but just to contribute something.

If 10.000 people contribute a quarter of the price tgat is still 2500 sales.
