How can Enhypen sell 500k in a day yet can't crack melon top 200?

Your avatar is trippy bruh...

Crack Melon top 200? they seem to be struggling for Genie top 200. Their fandom most be massively dominated from the international side

Fans bulk buying got nothing to do with digitals in korea or elsewhere, u new?

BANNED. sales are from i-fans.

I know they were able to crack billboard japan hot 100 though. not to be taken lightly I think for a 10 month old group.

Strong International fandom Weak domestic fandom

The way you mentioned only enhypen when every 4th gen boy group has the same case - huge sales and terrible domestic charting (1-2 exceptions but that's because their fandoms are bigger domestically and have no international popularity so it's different).

Enhypen's strongest fandom is in Japan. They buy many albums and they also chart them well digitally. After Japan there come the other international fans. Enhypen's popularity is huge internationally but not domestically. International fans can't chart them in korea but they can buy their albums - there comes the difference between sales and digitals.

Idk but you must be either trolling or be new to kpop because that's common sense

Quote from MassiveKpopFan

No that doesn’t exist to my knowledge

all we do know is that at least 100k of their korean album sales come from Japan and it's probably grown since than .

Enhypen is also probably only behind SKZ and TXT when it comes to international stats. Fever totally helped blow them up a ton with international kpop fans. Especially in SEA. THat's why Fever as a b-side could end up being the most streamed 4th gen group song of the year (it's already 3rd and is less than 10M from the #1 despite being releasing later)

Bruh what kind of weird obsessions trolls be having with charting.

That's cause they know they can trigger a ton of folks here who are crazed success stans and have nothing better to do than obsess over charting. These people need to go outside and touch some palm tress or somethin' smdh.

You can't tell me they are more popular than 4th gen groups like TXT, Straykidz or The Boyz....

Yes, they are. Get over it.

They can sell well because they came from an mnet survival show which is mainly watched by international kpop fans. They can't enter top 200 because the show didnt do well in korea so they are relatively unknown locally so nobody is checking their songs out

(1-2 exceptions

3 exceptions, TXT has a strong K-fandom as well

txt is part of those "1-2 exceptions"

I’m convinced some of y’all smoke crack to not understand

Physicals = Fandom

Digitals = GP

I was thinking of AB6IX in the Bigger k-fandoms part, which is why I said 3.

The vast majority of their fanbase is international. Their domestic fanbase does seem particularly weak considering how much they’re struggling even on genie. But it doesn’t really matter, with those album sales they have nothing to worry about anyway.

In a galaxy far far away, you shall find your answer.
