So now physical albums don’t matter for popularity rankings

I would say it kinda make sense tho.

Twice actually did well in both Physical and Digital compare to BP before The Album come out. BP was only popular internationally at the time and their album sales didn't support their international popularity.

However, this year. Blackpink was the best in term of both Digital and Physical.. They sold 1M album that nobody did that before.

They definitely rank above Twice now.

Ive never heard a songle Once saying album sales dont matter, its 8n fact traditionally been other fandoms right?

Quote from jenniekimqueen

For 3 WHOLE YEARS everyone put TWICE above BP in the girl group popularity ranking all because twice had better album sales. But now that izone is outselling twice physically, album sales clearly do not matter any more.

Justice for Blackpink!!!

Twice can actually come back every 3 month and sell the same amount of albums. BP HYLT sold 300k because blinks were saving money. So stfu

It doesn’t make sense. BP was above Twice in EVERY single metric except physicals

What metrics? There are 4 main metrics that measure popularity.

Digitals, Physicals, Concerts, Awards

Which one of these metrics are you talking about when you say "every single metric"?

Twice consistently outsold everyone, not with one time big effort.

Seems OP is someone's new trolling account (and already with banned status? Makes sense), and this is clearly a troll baiting thread.

But since I'm already reading it, might as well post.

TWICE didn't just have album sales, they were also #1 in domestic popularity, up till last year and aside from that were still doing solid in digitals.

Also, iirc TWICE's sales per album are still higher than IZ*One, even if the gap became smaller.

So it wasn't just bias or prejudice, there was a reason K-pop fans claimed TWICE were #1, and that's because they were #1 in several key areas.

op got banned yall stop reviving their threads

I can see that 1mil sales is still haunting that one user in their dreams.

Justice!! Op finally got banned, looks like a trend here in allkpop people using alt and disguise themself as a blink to pit BP VS BTS BP VS Twice. I am glad the rule ''no alt'' exist lol

She made sooo many threads pitting groups or gens.

How goes her mind works? like wow.
