    that doesn't really answer my question


    like ktown said, they have work with hanteo for 15years without having no problems

    and a company doesn't chnge their functionement suddenly

    hanteo didn't have any problem to include ktown numbers for all the past weeks


    so i don't understand why suddenly on august 28th hanteo doesn't want to include ktown numbers ? especially considering that i doubt hanteo change their functionement suddenly without sending a formal notice to their usual business partner, so they can adapt their functionement to the new rules of hanteo or find a compromise considering that they have been business partner for all these years

    Ktown4u is literally saying that, that Hanteo suddenly changed rules. And as per Korean translation it is not clear if it is just 28th Aug or all sales post 28th Aug that are affected too.

    Anyway, fandoms who buy on ktown4u may change their retailer if Hanteo stops including Ktown4u sales..

    They should be able to provide de-identified information and how many sales per person.


    Then Hanteo could do a 10 or 20 maximum albums per person calculation, so a couple of rich individuals/companies in doing CF deal cannot inflate sales by buying 100k+ albums.

    Since k4u gave a public notice, hanteo will probably reply back in public too then we will know

    If its true that Hanteo wanted "Detailed address" info however...


    They can chew on a jumbo size pack of Deez

    I wonder if its in response to those rumors about BG stans over the years. You know, that to reach big sales targets they bulk order (including some c-bars), and don't give full addresses so they end up returned but the return isn't counted, or in warehouses or on ships in random countries.


    If it is, it makes sense.

    so now we will need to wait for Circle (former GAON) results?


    overall that's messed up situation, this seems like some inside war between Hanteo and some shops

    in this way Hanteo basically can 'manipulate' people to buy elsewhere because "it counts" for sales then

    EXACTLY! Something is weird, and honestly, I never liked Ktown in the first place.


    BTW, if this is true, then, this isn't just about Le Sserafim!
