is kang daniel seriously THAT popular in korea?

He has a very dedicated fandom. His fandom is smart though. They made me check out his song after I heard that he went #1 on Gaon digitals chart. Imagine how many would have done the same.

I'm just thinking if BTS can get 24m in two days time and 41m for the first full tracking week while releasing on Friday 1PM, how many they would have gotten if they had released on Monday 6PM. I'm saying atleast 60m for the first week.

Their first day, first week numbers will be huge if they ever release on that time from now onwards.

All I remember is how he was 'that popular' on Produce 101 and than the 'most popular' member of WANNA ONE. I remember how an idol said: "I went to a museum and 2 girls came to me asking for an autograph. I asked them if they even know who I am and they said "arn't you Kang daniel?" as I said I am not Daniel, these girls got mad and said "well bye, we only like Kang Daniel" and than they went gone" Another time before Seungri's scandal happend he visited a fangirl and all 5 seconds went like "I hope if I go into your room, I don't find anything about Kang Daniel in there, he is too popular these days!"

Even back than he was like 'the it-boy' and I read a few coments how it broke a lot fangirl's hearts in Korea as he dated Jihyo

Daniel is in Korea something like Justin Timberlake was for American girls in the early 2000s. He is like the Justin Bieber of Korea

He’s not that popular anymore but he has a lot of ajumma fans. So this is not surprising lol.

No, Danitys (his fans) just mass downloaded the song to game the chart.

I really think he isn't that popular with the gp, at least less than his numbers, but his fans are some of the most dedicated in Kpop
