Aespa has a fanbase as proven by the MMA voting status

"wish we as a fan base would be more honest" - the lie they want to believe. I am not sure they are denying they have a fanbase, when GP is known not to participate in votings.

savage charted in bb 200 for 1 week. savage has fallen out of top 200. That is clear evidence fandom power for the first week peak.

Does this mean aespa and Oh My Girl Korean fanbases are 7x bigger than Twice's? Does not seem believable to me.

Korean fans voting on Korean site =/= charting on American album charts like tf OP if that was the case itzy and skz would had huge Korean fanbases

Means GP doesn't care about Twice and their domestic fandom isn't substantial anymore

Yes, that's why I didn't think them trying to get their Dynamite with The Feels was a wrong choice, they don't have anything to lose in Korea anymore, they can afford to release songs in English

agree jyp should push them in the west like itzy. They will get better results.

Not only hardcore fans/fandom vote for the melon awards. I see the standing as a reflection of who had recent hits more than fandom size

Where did EXO even come from. EXOL are SM Stan’s who like RV or Aespa or other SM GGs the most. And sometimes Blackpink.

SM stans, even Red velvet that had weak song releases their Korean fandom was bigger than Blackpink before how you like that era. SM has a strong Korean fanbase , all their groups have a domestic fanbase ready for them now couple it with the fact that aespa Had a hit song you have your answer .

Because they can't chart unlike past years

SM stans would vote for Aespa too
