Aespa rank #3 best selling GG in US in 2024 ( only group with no US promo in 2024)

Dbdjjfjf

I guess that promo they have before 2024, the English singles etc etc were mass hallucinations

Maybe they were for sm like the money they lost for it

Slowly growing their popularity in the west

Love to see it

they had a bunch of concerts?

Coachella?

Wow illiteracy is a real problem on allkpop forum

Cuz how can someone say " no US promo in 2024 " and people talk about better things and coachella which happen in 2023 and the year before 😑😑

But well it was expected from aespa haters who have struggle to read only when they see "aespa"

Their Hyperline concert ended in September 2023

And in june 2024 they started they parallel line concert tour and for the moment only the Asian stops and australia happen

The western stop for the tour started in january 2025

promotions build up after each year. this is how Twice got to those number, because of their activities in those past years. same rule applies to Aespa

Deserved congrats aespa

You said "no promotions in the west in 2014." I wouldn't go harping on other people's literacy right now.

Regardless, their point is valid. The fact that Aespa didn't promote in the US in 2024 doesn't magically wipe away all the promotions they did prior to that. They didn't obtain these sales effortlessly, like you're trying to make it sound.

Looks like their previous US promotions weren't in vain.

Congrats Aespa

Nice one!

You actually don’t know how constant US promo is important. If you stop the promo then you will fell off in US as a kpop artist unless you are BTS or BP.

For example NJs debuted with 126k copies on bb200 with Get Up. And in 2024 they didn’t even debut on bb200 if I’m not wrong, and they are not even on this list….. They just disappeared from bb200 in 2024.

Or when SM promoted Aespa more or less in US in 2022, they debuted with 56k copies on bb200 with Girls album.

And with Whiplash they had 17k copies……

See how much of a difference it is?

They also have a sh*tty distributor on top of that.

Their US fanbase increased a lot which we can see by their touring numbers( around 80 k compared to 40k in 2023) but because they had 0 promo in 2024 and they had horrible distributor, their sales declined a lot compared to 2022.

Yes, please explain to this American the intricacies of US promotions. I'm positively entralled by your esoteric wisdom.

Quote from SooYoung

Please don't waste your time explaining to people who are stupid

I think you'll waste less time explaining to a wall

People are acting like having constant promotions isn't important

If it wasn't the case, kpop groups would just promote for their debut year and then they would just sit at home

Cuz why would they want to promote their new releases and their group when they can just capitalize on what they did 2-3 years ago will be enough to help you sustain your career forever

I swear sometimes when i see some users logic here, i'm like " i'm so surprise that some people can be so stupid and have a completely lack of logic"

And the. I remember that their president is trump and i'm like well like we say " the leader represent the follower" and then i'm no longer surprise

I love to see it, congrats! 😊

Also great to see Twice up there.

Quote from DaisyTheGenuine

And how was NewJeans supposed to chart on the billboard 200 album chart without releasing any album

Single albums don’t count for bb200?
