this is the best time for groups to try getting big in the west

A lot of people have such a small bandwidth for music, that's probably true. Any agency who attempts to better get the English right. I've heard lots of fails. If I won't buy it and people who listen to K-Pop regularly aren't vibing with it, why would casual listeners? Agencies really need to ask effective questions like:

• Would a new or current American or UK artist/group use these words in 202X?
• Are there too many syllables in the English lyrics?
• Does the English version sound/feel natural and unforced?

Quote from localbitch

like i said america has been bored

you may have your opinion but i wouldn't call driver's license boring. america and even the rest of the world agree with me. 71.1 million streams in the first week of it's release.

Quote from localbitch

driver’s license is a boring sad bop for the emos everyone will abandon that song as soon as literally any other singer puts out something
