Okay, so, here are some basic stats:

1. Blackpink - 14.8B

7. Red Velvet - 3.8B

8. ITZY - 3.0B

9. IVE - 2.8B

10. MAMAMOO - 1.5B

Kpop groups with the most TOP100 appearances on Melon (2014-2025)

The most credited Kpop girl group in history!

The only stat they're lacking is physical sales.

The TOP5 Best-Selling 3rdg en girl groups.

TWICE: Korean sales: 13,833,390 copies sold

Blackpink: Korean sales: 6,679,406 copies sold

Red Velvet: Korean sales: 5,370,133 copies sold

Dreamcatcher: Korean sales: 1,278,406 copies sold

MAMAMOO: Korean sales: 1,194,962 copies sold

Last year, DC took over MMM.

So, what's your take?

Quote from Popper-of-Ks

My take is that you're completely off your rocker.

The stats otherwise, mate. For their 2018-2019 year alone, they deserve the title, not to mention the fact that they're the ONLY girl group in the TOP5 that charted with the most songs. Show me another group that charted with 25 song in a year. They were the first girl groups in 3rd gen and in general achieving records, as you can see above.

They're still close to the so called TOP3 in Korea even tho they didn't have a cb for 3 years.

Quote from Soulchae

Is your criteria only melon charts or are you also counting sales?

The sales numbers are in my first post, so yeah, I included that one as well. But physical sales aren't really a fair comparison because they're under a small company that never promoted them properly.

So, it's more fair to compare the digital numbers.

I didn't only count MELON, btw, they have similar numbers on every Kchart, I just don't have time to write a whole book about 5+ Korean Charts.

Quote from CaraFIMIE

You really need to shut up and stop setting MAMAMOO up.

And you really need to open your eyes, because they're either #1 on most lists or in the TOP3 without any BIG4 privilege.

Quote from wsoet

D‍on't forget about concert attendance:

I didn't, but it's another unfair comparison. You can't compare a small agency group with BIG4 when they can do bigger concerts.

Quote from z1

The only thing i gotta say is that if Blackpink and Twice were to cherry pick their biggest stats in Korea then they would have a list like this as well.

But ehhh as long as it makes you happy i guess

You can literally see, they can't. They are on these list, and you can see where are they compared to MMM.

Quote from monalisalove

That was a funny reading that I skipped actually.

If you didn't read it, why are you even here? At least try to make a valid point about why do you think they're not the biggest or not even in the TOP3. It's really not that hard.

Quote from JesseAlex

Yes....... since I don't know any other third gen girl groups.

WHAT? You can't be serious.

Quote from Tru-Multistan

mamaMID

MID? Mate, did you see those stats? Your faves are not in the TOP10 or TOP30 in some of those digital stats.

I knew Kpop stans are not ready to accept reality in black.😂

Quote from Yama-Chan

You can move along pal, at least I did a proper research, didn't just post some random tweets. I actually used a website and go through their entire discography.

I get that you forget them because you have NewJeans, ADP and Huntrix now, but you can make your own chart threads.

Maybe you're jealous because my threads about Charts are more accurate and detailed.

Quote from Styxx

They're the only one with all the members being able to sing. In my books they're top 1 gg in all of kpop but that's just me

I wouldn't say ONLY, but one of the few, and probably the best Idol group.

For people who still try to undermine their success. Here are some more from all-around the world.

Wheein remake song on Billboards TOP25 at #14, and she was a freelancer for a year.

MAMAMOO the only group in the TOP10 with 3 songs on Billboard Digital sales, and outselling BP.😅

Some random Brazilian Award, I never heard of, honestly.💀

The industry missing them.

One of the most important Daesang in Korea!

After 9 years without any promo or even just an English post on SNS!

First ever Kpop girl group with all 4 members doing a Solo tour.

4 CONSECUTIVE YEARS!

The Grammys picked one of their CF song (+ "Yes I Am" and "HIP") as one of the most influential song by a female artist!

A massive flex!

Lee Hyori about MAMAMOO!

And so many others.

Quote from Tru-Multistan

Mamamoo deserves better than you, such a shameless setup when BLACKPINK exists.

Be serious please, BP is not bigger in SK than MMM. You can see the stats. If they release a new album next year when the trademark expires, they can easily have better overall streaming stats than both BP and RV, and they're already #1 with their ULs and have more songs on TOP100 than all the other girl groups.

Quote from CaraFIMIE

you are literally obsessed with big4

grow the fuck up.

mamamoo will never be the helpless nugus you want them to be

Who said they're nugus? I said they're the biggest 3rd gen girl group in Korea.

I'm not obsessed with BIG4 because I don't care about them at all unless they're talented and making good music.

Quote from Yama-Chan

Thankfully they have me. This ridiculous set up thread is a very poor way to show respect to Mamamoo's accomplishments.

They have you LOL, you left the fandom long time ago, you said yourself. Stick to NJ and your other mainstream faves.

The fact that you don't know anything about their achievements says everything.

Quote from Tru-Multistan

I'm sorry but being the first GG ever to sell out a stadium in SK will always be more impressive to me than whatever stats you posted, maybe that's just me. I won't deny the obvious impact that MMM has had but BLACKPINK is charting top 5 on melon TODAY. I just don't think this is something worth going into the weeds over when it's quite obviously not true.

This is the very same user I've seen berating you for weeks about your charting threads and then has the gall to make this, smh.

Yeah, and nobody cares about their stadium tour because no one else ever done it except IU, and a BIG4 group selling out stadiums is not impressive at all, it's the BARE MINIMUM! Also, let's not talk about how Koreans are slandering BP for their Korean concert. So, a sold-out concert doesn't mean much when your performance is not good enough.

If they are so big, why MAMAMOO has better stats in Korea? BP is charting on Melon today, but that's not my point, MMM didn't release a song in 3 years, why are you comparing their latest stats?

My thread isn't about Charts only it's about MMM's impact and how big they are in Korea, because Kpoppies love to discredit them. Especially BIG4 stans.

The fact that 25 of their songs charted on Melons TOP100 between March 2018 - March 2019 and that's almost the whole Blackpink discography proves my point. And if we add 2019, it's basically the whole BP discog.

And you know why that's more impressive than anything that a BIG4 group did? Because they did it alone, without any privilege.

Quote from CaraFIMIE

I might be the only remaining MooMoo capable of redeeming the reputation of my glorious fandom on this forum

You were never a Moomoo in the 1st place, be serious.

Quote from Yama-Chan

I could've listed all these achievements without resorting to twitter spamming links with zero context or substance.

I just don't feel the need to do so, because Mamamoo's legacy and impact are more than just numbers. Any respectable K-Pop fan knows to respect them, and this type of achievement spamming should be beneath a real MooMoo.

I left the fandom long ago, but I saw Moonbyul last November and will be seeing Hwasa this upcoming weekend? Make it make sense.

I'm everything you wish you could be, David. We both know this. Good luck with the flop thread.

Display More

I would rather pull out my eyeballs before I became like you. 😂

I don't give a shit about flop or hit threads, I'm not 5 like you, and if it's a flop why are you here?

You don't have any right to talk about MAMAMOO fans when you never mentioned them since I'm here. I'm literally the only fan here who actually post about them and sharing the news.

The only thing you do is talking about your new mainstream faves. So, yeah, I would never want to be like you.

Let's be real, you're just a rookie level troll on AKP, nothing more.

BTW, the funny thing is, no other fandom even tried to prove me wrong with KOREAN STATS!

If Mamamoo isn't the biggest gg in Korea or not even in the TOP3, where are the arguments?

Typical Kpop stan behavior, you don't have a real argument, so you're coming with personal insults.

Quote from lialve

Lies

Then, prove me wrong? It's really not that hard if all these data and stats I posted are "lies".

I wonder if Kpop stans every gonna stop being ignorant or finally start arguing like real people.
