What is the reason of NCT 127 and GIDLE new albums low sales?

Quote from randkpopstan

albums in the last 3 years: 5 by nct 217, 6 by nct dream, 2 by nct.

Damn thats a lot of albums, it will actually makes sense if sm burned out their costumers by going nuts releasing so many albums. But those numbers are still too low, its simply not normal going from 1 million sales in hanteo in 1 comeback to struggling to crack 300k

Quote from ISaidISaid

Thank god EXO isn’t an SM group.

EXIST surpassed 2 million sales and is their best selling album ever. (Without American and European distribution)

EXO defying logic, we love to see it.

They will always laugh last ☝️

Perhaps the reason is SM slow shipping? Lets see their sales after a month... or two because this is SM after all.

Quote from Icaro_Ribeiro

They still have time. I believe they can clear 1 million before the year ends

We can now all stop pretending NCT 127 don't have a big fandom and move on

was that a....fact check?

sm is so pathetic for the way they sometimes treat their senior artists

Still going

Unfortunately, Sm the shipping of albums is so slow, other companies are much faster in this regard. This always happens to Red Velvet, some album versions are sold out even in the pre-orders. For example, the Birthday the Cake Members versions were finished immediately. I mean, this always happens to their old groups. So you have to wait until the end of the month to reach the actual total sales number. This happened to Nct 127. On the contrary, their sales increased

Quote from HardcoreBLINK

All of SM acts have a certain celling

Sooner or later all SM acts will not just peak but start noticing a decrease across all metrics

It's nct 127 now

Next it's probably aespa unfortunately

Red Velvet had their best selling album last year and FMR was a hit too. Tbh, longevity wise SM is a good company, their worst problem is that they refrain their acts to reach their full potential (red velvet weird songs choices after hits, aespa hiatus when they were dominating, exo... well, exo existence.)

Even NCT 127 showed that the problem was distribution, not a decrease of popularity.
