NewJeans vs IU will be the ultimate test of NewJeans popularity

Quote from BlackpinkHouse

The last group to defeat IU was not Twice lol.

It was Aespa with Next Level. Nobody remembers Celebrity or Strawberry Moon, the song that everyone thinks about from that year is Next Level.

New Jeans might have a different opinion

Quote from Afriyieau1

That’s like saying dynamite defeated IU in 2020

Your logic

Dynamite did defeat IU in 2020

However Yoongi almost led BTS to a disaster since Eight was the only song released by then 1,341 years old

Quote from selfmate

didn't dynamite blow everyone out of the water???

Display Spoiler

pun very much intended

It wasn’t number 1 on year end due to how late it got released. If I’m not mistaken IU either had the #1 or #2 song.

I do agree dynamite may have been the biggest song of 2020, but numbers wise on kcharts, it was IU. If dynamite was released earlier, maybe things will be different

Disregarding the calendar year sotys (which never makes much sense to use really) and going just by a year from release date, id say dynamite is without question the no #1 song released in 2020.

Quote from WhyKnock

She had a knack of releasing songs near the end of the year

Its either start of the year or end of the year for iu, at least since 2017:

Palette - march

flower bookmark 2 - september

Bbibbi - october

Love poem - november

Eight - May (only release that was not released in the first or last three months of the year)

Celebrity - january

Lilac - March

Strawberry moon - october

Pieces - december

IU herself called NewJeans the biggest celebrities in Korea. She has already waved the white flag.
