So, 3rd gen almost close to an end and 4th gen already taking over. Who do you top five 3rd gen groups in Korean digital charts
-
-
I guess a question is which third generation groups are still active (like actually released something this year???)

lol neither did I my friend neither did I!!!
but does it really matter??? if you like the group/song does it really matter what it charts

I mean i would be lying if i said i didnt want my faves to succeed but its not the end all be all. I still love their music and get excited for performances. I'm one of those types of fans that don't focus on charting. It doesn't change a groups sound or music.
-
I don't any of us want our favs to fail - we all want them to succeed but I think the issue is when certain fans prioritise charting and numbers over them liking the song/group

That happens a lot

EXO is #2 that’s all I know. Their album digitals are so crazy good it’s insane. No one even comes close to them. Groups with fairly big disco’s like Twice or RV don’t even remotely come near them. Ofc other BG’s are so far behind it’s laughable. The only one who has done whole disco numbers like that since exo is BTS.
Don’t forget the fact first snow is extremely likely to enter top 10 this year lol.

It depends. If you are talking about total digitals then you can just get a list tallying this from online.
If you meant number of digital hit songs then;
2. Twice
This is not in any order. Boy groups don’t generally do extremely well on kcharts when compared to ggs. I think it’s just Bigbang and BTS who are able to hold their own against ggs.

I finally meet kpop stans that are level headed.
We need more like you!

Twice,Blackpink, Red velvet( although they’re ma ulta group I never thought the gp would still care about them after all these years) BTS and Mamamoo as individual solo artists

The top 10 based on my recent analysis of Melon monthly data:
2. Twice
6. Mamamoo
7. Winner
8. GFriend
9. Oh My Girl
10. BtoB
Ok so You did the work, good job
I believe this is the right answer as far Melon is concerned. The question now is how can we extrapolate Melon to overall digital performance in SK

You are joking right? Exo don't have a single song with 100M of streams on gaon or 2.5M of downloads, while twice digitals on those categories are the top tier of their generation.

unique listeners is one of the most irrelevant categories to showcase digital success, I talking to you at what is at the top of the hierarchy, the gaon streams and downloads, the ones which show how much a song was consumed and bought on korea and of the top groups exo is the weakest, exo doesn't trump any of the top girl groups on digitals because they never had a song cross 100M of streams of sold 2.5M of downloads.

Not just that in everything EXO disco is much more consumed than twice in every way UL is just one metric to prove it. Downloads streams everyhting EXO is higher. Twice have a handful of songs that did well that’s all. EXO’s entire disco is heavily consumed.
You don’t know EXO’s downloads as well EXO’s total downloads is INSANELY high PLEASEEE let’s not even go there.
Yeah EXO don’t have mega hit song per era but the sheer number of songs in their albums that out perform twice and others is so insanely high it can’t be ignored
These are facts everyone knows. Whether you like it or not more people consumed EXO’s albums than twice’s and this won’t change it’s a fact.
PS : someone please bring EXO’s download stats I’m too tired to look up that data before the digital point change lol.

I think what is impressive about exo is that the rest of idols consistently released new music over last, almost, 5 years exo was inactive and exo is still there despite probably having the least discography among other groups mentioned (minus bp of course).
EXO music is so good and that's main reason they survived for this long tbh

I somehow always forget btob but they always do so well on charts, they are greatly underestimated.

I hate to break your bubble but you are very wrong, we have exo download numbers until 2017 and twice until 2018 through gaon certifications and these are the stats of their singles:
Twice: 23987979 downloads with 10 songs in 3 years
Exo: 12987516 downloads with 22 songs in 5 and half years
Twice is simply too above exo, and it's not rocket science just because exo can do few numbers on lot of songs is not equal to twice massive big hits numbers. You are free to share their bsides download numbers or calculate them by yourself and see if exo career numbers until 2017 reach 20M of downloads overall

Yes it does. Exo having more songs that chart makes them more impressive.
Why should I bother about the few songs twice has with a lot of digitals when EXO have 70+ songs aka their entire disco charting and doing well.
For me twice not charting any b sides when releasing so many songs makes them less impressive no two ways about it.
Ofc the total downloads will be higher because twice is based on their hit title tracks. You do it for b sides or sheer number of songs and EXO outsold in every way. I don’t even need to bring numbers because everyone knows how poorly twice performs outside their TT. They can’t even compete with other GG’s like mamamoo let alone reach for EXO.
Having few songs do well is not impressive so I don’t find Twice impressive compared to EXO.
We aren’t going to change our opinions anyway because for you you don’t care about actual music consumption as long as a TT was hit.
EXO is known and popular for their music and impeccable disco that’s why for me the b side and album performances is extremely important. You can ask any EXOL and they’ll talk about b sides for ages. And 99.9% of kpop including Twice don’t come close to EXO and never will.
Anyway anticipate First Snow entering top 10 in a few days/weeks! 10 years into their career and that’s the exo class!
