Obviously during the past few months/year or so, there has been a massive rise in physical sales all across the board.
But do you think this is due to KPOP fans basically having free money to spend? Pre-pandemic, most KPOP groups would go on tour and have multiple concerts, etc but with the COVID-19 pandemic, that isn't possible anymore. KPOP fans don't have to spend money on tickets, travelling, food, hotels, etc.
So...is the rise of physical sales related to the lack of concerts and tours during the pandemic?
