  • He doesn't really disprove the bit at @ timestamp 3:11. There's no need to buy land to bury albums when they can be tossed in the landfill.


    I'm not saying anyone is doing this but there's still the possibility. It wouldn't surprise me if there were companies gaming the system somehow.

    SM must be genuises to not only falsificate the needed contracts of their exports efficiently but to toss albums on landfills without some of the biggest fandoms obsessed over the Gaon-Hanteo gap noticing. Are you aware of the amount of money wasting and risk that implies when they already have a very successfull group on their hands?

    Neo got my back

    I didn't mention SM.


    Also, image is a strong thing that can breed more success. Sometimes losing some money upfront can be can be seen as an investment because rewards may appear later on. I'm no business expert though.

  • I learned nothing from this video. Sadly he can't tell us digital formula or release downloads numbers. :-(

    Oh jeez the part where he mentions that Melon has about 30 million songs but only about 5 million are streamed in a year is so sad. It's hard out there for indie companies. It's hard to even discover them because the algorithms are dependent on what others are listening to similar to you. :sadface:

    until there's enough reasonable doubt I think people should refrain from talking about gaon-hanteo gaps and accusing certain companies of doing such things. so far, there is zero evidence or suspicion of a company doing what you said, someone would have noticed tons of albums being thrown in the landfill

  • Yep....


    This is probably a response to some that have claimed that TWICE were doing saejagi which HANTEO responded to mentioning their overseas counts.


    It also is a confirmation of TWICE's growth outside of SK.
