Did SM betray Aespa next level?

If SM would have put next level on the album, the album sales would also count for next level. so next level could finally get the music show wins it deserved.

but they didnt. is it fine to not put potential hybe from savage away or is it shading of next level. what do you think?

it was a digital single it was never planned to be on an album. Plus I would hate for a previously released single to be on a brand new album. I've heard the song already don't want it added to an album of new songs.

Which is why Im glad Lil Nas X didn't add Old Town Road on his debut album

i never though people would hate the idea because the people who buy the album will most certainly like nl a lot. So in the best case they will like it or in the worst case they wont mind.

even if it wasnt planned. im sure this big success wasnt planned too. so i just tough some fans would like the idea of having a physical with their favourite song on it. also because of the longevity the song is not really that old.

It seems like SM doesn't care about music show wins

thats sad. i wish nl would get a music show win. but nevertheless im sure aespa will get some music shows now anyway.

i bet with digitals and physicals and sns views my wont even need to vote.

Bro sm never cares about show wins lmaoo that's like child stuff to them

well, its kind of child stuff compared to earning money. but for the artists its appreciation and reputation so i just wish companies will consider more about the interests of their artists.
