Why are Iz*One’s sales so high?

japan

aren't they from produce

Quote from bangpinker

But even if we take out japanese sales, their sales are still pretty high for a rookie gg

They have a big Chinese fan base as well, Sakura being one of the more popular idols there

And all produce groups sell well

Because they have many fans

Actually their highest selling Album is 541k after the year end returns they had 10k unsold albums removed.

i dont understand the "weren't" in your op, but yea most gg doesn't outsell bg. but izone have a big survival show start, they are following ioi and wanna one's success, they have japan, etc. they've got many factors that makes them attractive for people

yeah produce is one

They have a huge fanbase

The members are also quite popular

They have Sakura who is one of the most popular members from AKB48 - she also has a huge Chinese fanbase

Wonyoung is probably the visual of the 4th gen and she's only 16.

Yena is a variety darling - she starring in another variety program which i can't remember

Chaeyeon is the best 4th generation female dancer.

Yuri can sing and is one of the better main vocalists of the 4th.

Minju is an MC on Music Core

(there are others but I'll leave them to someone else to profile)

oh yeah and Nako is literally the cutest kpop idol of all

Even bad publicity is, in the end, publicity. Maybe that scandal with MNET grow people's interest in them (at least to check them) and started to actually like them? Idk, it's just an assumption. But yeah, since they promote both in SK and Japan having these ultra-cute concepts it's a bonus.

Also, I feel like their image is more anime-like than the one that Twice has. Also, Twice is growing old, and we all know that there are lots of weirdos who adore young and cute girls with a lolita image.

+ the benefit of izone is that they debuted when kpop started to grow internationally

Want you say is okey and valid but the tone of your question is a little bit rude imo.

Is it a glitch ?

They were on a popular survival show so they already have an established fanbase. All GG seem to have a huge boost in sales lately. Sakura is very, very popular in Japan. She is set to take over AKB in the future. Japan buys a lot. She brings in a lot of sales. Lastly, they honestly have a lot of catchy songs.

teenage fanboys put out for their favs

i'm gonna ignore that one comment but it's because of produce

They were part of a show, so their fame was already raising before the debut. When they debuted they already had many fans and since they are so good it kept increasing

I mean who wouldn't buy it. Their albums literally have no skips.
