I don’t get it, what is wrong with that?
Why kpop stans pretend their faves don’t care about charts and award.
-
Whether they care or not, it seems like the stans probably care a lot more.

Always stans care more but that isn’t the topic anyways.
-
Wasn’t there that one time that a txt member joked about wanting more album sales or something and then he got bashed by Kent’s. Yea that’s probably why
Tons of artist have said “stream my /our music please” or “please support I/ we worked hard” but people act like if there is something wrong with it and even the fans act like their faves never said such a thing.
-
So if I have my own life to worry about and my own struggles I care about, why would I waste my time arguing with kpop stans about charts and who's faves are better or more successful. I don't live my life through my faves.
But I do wish all the best for them and I'm happy when they're doing well. (if they're not doing well, that's also ok)
And of course my faves are happy if they chart or get an award, but if they don't they also have their own lifes and other things that makes them happy.
+ don't have time to follow the stats of other people's favs, I just check out new music, some content etc

Because their faves don't chart?
I dunno 🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♀️🤷♀️

Why ask their fans to stream their songs when they've got 'gp' streaming their songs. I think that's what's happening. 🤷♀️🤷♂️

Of course they care, but I personally find it very tacky when they make it obvious that they care too much or that they want to achieve certain things that are usually related to sales, because that puts pressure on fans and is kinda manipulative. So I prefer it when they keep it to themselves and let fans "work" on their own terms and pace.
-
Tbh I just want the best for my favs
-
-
it's as simple as people thinking "if my fave doesn't have it" than they think/say its not relevant or doesn't matter

Do you care about about charts and awards ?
-
What I find more confusing is how some kpop stans claim charts don’t matter but then find them writing essays on how their faves deserved something at award shows

This is because Award Shows shouldnt be about sales, they're supposed to be given to the "best" not the "most successful".
-
I also don’t know, it’s kpop, all companies regardless of size expect their groups to have sales or any sort of success so they can profit and the group can survive, so all groups care about charting and sales.
Kpop fans acting like they’re fans of a local band formed by friends will never not be funny.

It has always been base on numbers and will always be, therefore fans will always complain, we are running in circles

Yes, and “the best criteria” need to be according to me, not others lol

I want the best for my faves and consumption shows through charts.
-
The only people who should care about charts and awards are the company and the artist themselves. They're the ones actually impacted by it, but from the way people act you'd think every fan was getting a cut of that revenue.
-
i feel like i don't understand what you mean?
like they're refusing to acknowledge that the idols care?
-
What I mean is it is obvious artists care about charts and awards is not exclusive for kpop, but the fans and non fans act like if there is something wrong with expecting results from your work.
Charts is not just a position in a list, it is literally a representation of the consumption that’s it.
i agree with you, but i don't think kpop stans pretend? like i feel like its all about how you look at it.
there's nothing wrong with wanting to do good on charts, but it depends on how you say it. kind of like how the txt thing happened. the way he said it could be easily misinterpreted as throwing shade or whatever, which is some cases is totally understandable way to react as a fan.

Well yeah that's the only way to know if an idols is successful or not

I second this I think idols care so much since it shows them how much people love their music and are willing to listen and vote for them
-
Idk, because I see posted often on AKP that artists don't care about awards or achievements...and then those same posters go and make lame and arbitrary achievement threads for their faves...
-
don't know about others but I for one don't care for achievements and the like...
but my favs absolutely should - i mean it's their very livelihood lol
-

best varies for people so success is a better measure to give out awards my best song is not your best song
-
-
coz they are hypocrite. They dont care
but they have time to write whining essay
about whose deserving or not.
-
BP please care about sales & charts....

That's going to spark even more debate among kpop fans
-
-
Of course they want to chart - it means their work is being recognized.
But the problem is that some fans act as if charting is the only thing that matters. If a song doesn't chart then it shouldn't exist.
The last thing you will want is for everyone to be making only top 40 music. That would kill all diversity in music.
-
I care about my faves but couldnt care less for other groups lol if they do well i'll be happy, if they dont i still will be cause i have new content its that simple

How you define the "best" as people have different taste. Sales and streaming are an indicator on how much people love that song and reflect to what people like to hear the most.
-
I think they care and they should, they just aren't really losing sleep over it

i have the hardest time figuring whether some kpop fans are overzealous or whether i am just selfish for only caring about my personal enjoyement and entretainment without stressing and obsessing over stats and sales
I remember a while ago, there was a thread asking about how every person consume music when their faves release new music. I answered that sometimes i obsess over one song and stream nothing but that song for weeks on end, so sometimes i takes me too long to go through and entire album and give each songs its due attention and finally decide on favorites. So, the op of the thread quoted me saying that they used to do the same until their leanred that spotify filters that kind of streams and considers it spam so they stopped doing it and instead are now streaming a selection of different songs to make sure that every stream counts for their faves.
i was like-
tell me more (not) while i continue being selfish i guess
-
They do care… but I think depending on how often you already charted and sold , some might want it more than others.
I would say Groups who struggle to chart or to sell a lot might want it more than those who already had it all.
