What does Illit first comeback need to accomplish?

If their comeback flops like TWS' its gonna be fun

It's going to be hard to replicate their success with Magnetic. LGS was a great song but did not perform nearly as well.

I'm not a fan of Lolita-style groups, so I'm not the target audience. I think their success will be heavily dependent on the Asian markets and I don't know what the general sentiment is given all the Hybe drama.

Stick to Bops similar to Magnetic + hybe promotions, they will already have tons of support from other company fandoms so all in all they need a good song

Let's see their next release teasers, I will let you know if it hit or not.

Spotify 2M filtered debut

kcharts debut

melon-29

genie-45

bugs-8

flo-out

It needs to 'step on' NewJeans.

Quote from Drew_B

All eyes will be on them when they make their first official comeback (whenever that is). And with everything that has happened at HYBE what do you think are the end goals for Illit and Bang PD?

Must surpass or match Magnetic success?

Must out perform NewJeans in sales or spotify/melon?

Must be soo successful there is no dobut left they are bigger than NewJeans?

Slightly underperform on purpose to gather even more sympathy fans to join the cause against Ador and their so called assassination of Illit.

I feel this comeback will be even more important and anticipated than NewJeans.

This -- Must surpass 'Magnetic'.

1. Their sales need to remain stable and/or rise.

2. Matching Magnetic's success is unlikely. If their next single spends around 6-7 weeks in Melon's top 10 and can chart for a month on global Spotify, then I would consider it a success.

3. They need to improve their live singing. Aesthetics can only take you so far.

Equivalent success in Spotify Global, which will be hard, and Japan to their debut.

Korea doesn't matter, since they contribute peanuts to a top group's revenue.

outdo Ditto and OMG!!!

or just copy them lol

Quote from ladidaladidadida

Make themselves distinct from and not copy NJ...

already done. they don't all have dark hair anymore

Outperform newpants in every category which I think is possible with hybe's help

They'll be thrown on every playlist and be autoplaying mystically on Spotify (ie the modern form of Payola), so they should get some decent numbers and chart on Global Spotify. Which in turn can be used to mediaplay them in Korea if the song isn't as strong there and they'll rise in the Korean charts.

They don't really need to accomplish much because most of it's probably already been paid for and organised.

Get good song that can match or almost the popularity of magnetic. Also different type of group concept that are varies from NJ, so they removed the copy things label towards them
