When adjusted for inflation TVXQ and SNSD had the biggest peak of all time

Quote from WatchExoWolfDemo

I don’t know what you are smoking but Kpop was definitely not declining before BTS or Blackpink came in

The only thing that was not declining were album sales and mostly because of exo not the industry as a whole. Everything else was showing decline or barely any growth and it exploded when bts, bp started getting big, but as I said it is still mostly them monopolizing the market lol

Why are yall acting like Twice didn't exist in 2015 and 2016?

Again only them, not the industry as a whole. And twice are a local group anyways, they werent the reason kpop grew outside of asia

I agree about Girls Generation but a bigger peak than BTS?! PGFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

Sorry but i really can't even visualize TVXQ and SNSD competing directly against the biggest western/american artists.
