Which brings in more money: Boygroups or Girlgroups?

Quote from Chaesoocrumbs

Didn’t Blackpink save YG from going bankrupt like 3804619496 times. Also what does BigBang have that Blackpink doesn’t?

there’s a difference for making the company break even vs making profits. Not that I’m saying BlackPink doesn’t make money, they just don’t have Bigbang’s touring prowess (where YG makes the most money)

This is false tho I think their touring potential is in fact bigger.

They just didn’t get to tour China like bigbang did.

If that opens up I think they’ll be even bigger than Bigbang.

It makes me think of the modeling industry and how guys tend to have longer lasting careers.

Lisa earned the most of 3rd gen. It all came from cf, magazine,ig posts, modelling etc

I'm pretty sure Bigbang touring power comes from Japan tho, not China. And I always feel like Bigbang is bigger than BP in China anyway.

China is a huge reason why they hit 1million tour attendees. They had a lot of dates there.

Whoever has touring power will earn more

Iirc Japan alone bring them around 900k attendance for MADE tour. So thats like 60% out of 1.5M from one country.

Not really. Made and 0 to 10 were the tours with 1mil+

Out of 1.5 mil for made, 910k came from Japan with only 18 shows. Rest 36 shows worldwide had 590k. This is also including Korea.

For 0 to 10, 950k out of 1.1 mil came from Japan again.

0 to 10 didn't even have a Chinese show.

Even with BlackPink, YG is struggling without Bigbang

They can't tour now nor do they sell albums well so no, they won't make a difference

Beside the fact, BP grew alot since their last tour and BB can't tour China nor they can report the whole Japanese domes capacity as their attendance now.

Hmmm interesting.

They should push for bp promo in Japan then.

BGs.

blackpink sells more albums than big bang

obviously they'll even sell more tickets when tour is back

they even have bigger endorsement deals than big bang

in general BGs bring more revenue

but Blackpink is like a boy group in terms of revenue

bp promo in japan is least likely to happen because of teddy not interested in creating original japanese songs

I’d say boy groups especially the big ones.

Definitely bgs. Girl group fans keep bringing up that bgs don't chart well, but that doesn't matter to labels. What matters to them is money and bgs make more. What's the point in charting well when you're not selling albums or tickets?

bgs but if you have blackpink then gg...

Bg - particularly when you stack in touring and merchandise sales outside of albums. The big groups’ fan bases also seem to purchase longer into the group’s career and support solo albums. It will be interesting to see what happens with the big 3rd Gen gg like BP though - maybe they’ll continue to change the game.
