idk how to say this, the fact that Rebel Heart is IVE biggest hits after I Am (based on the records, PAKs etc) but is it just me or i dont feel the impact at all ? like the "hit" is not hitting.. even Like Jennie & Too Bad feels like a bigger hits (no hate toward IVE im a casual listener of them)...
Rebel Heart is still the biggest hit for 2025 so far but it feels like otherwise...

I have never heard this song properly in my life. Nor am I ever probably going to lol.

If i'm being thruthfully honest
Rebel heart did so well in the chart because it was a very empty house in the start of 2025
Most of the last big comeback of 2024 happened in October/november 2024 and once we reach end of January (when Ive cameback) most of these songs already lost some steam
and on debut of 2025 most of big companies focused on debuting newgroups (kickflip, H2H, kiiikiii)
most of the big artist announce their comeback for March
so it gave IVE a 2 months window with no direct competition that's why Rebel heart got quickly taken down by Gdragon and Jennie comeback
and when a song doesn't have any direct competition it's hard to feel like it's really big

Melon UL are always really low when it's not very competitive in the chart especially at the start of the the year and it really vary from months to months
for example
end of 2024 was very competitive and with 315K UL Whiplash only peaked at #2 so you needed more than 315K UL to peak at #1
while UL was lower at the start of 2025 so with 268K UL Rebel heart peaked at #1
but it's something that can be noticeable pretty much every year lately, UL start to rise when some big hit are dropped last year Ul were pretty low until Supernova and APT dropped
-
PAKs are affected by competition and not the best gauge of popularity.
Digital points are better gauge (but not reflecing YT music is a big downside)

Rebel heart slander under my watch???????????? nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnoooooooooooooo

It feels like people are saying it only achieved what it did because they released it during an empty house

Imo it’s ok but didn’t have any impact
it’s like it came and went i guess a modest hit 
A lot of number 1 hits come and go.
not all are memorable / legendary. You think each and evrry of SNSD, Sistar, Twice number 1 have long lasting impact?

The obsession with IVE is real

The impact should be felt in SK bc that's where the song is having great numbers so rest well akp, you won't feel the impact when the song is a hit in SK and not in your country.

They will say IVE does not have international impact despite having a hugely successful world tour
Which I attended and I can tell you they were fking amazing their vocals were extraordinary
Can't say the same for some other groups who were criticized widely on various sites for lipsyncing half of their concert

Like, Ive is a top gg since debut, people (not op exactly, but some users) will try everything to create narratives bc they can't accept this slay and how despite not having "international appeal" Ive tour is almost the same numbers as the supposed international appeal faves they stan.
In the end they are still a strong name in SK.

They can't accept that a GG from a non Big 4 is doing numbers on par with Big 4 groups that is the real tea.

A top gg with an it girl, unacceptable
