    You may ridiculed me now, mark my words they will be the most successful Sm acts in the west

  • Moderator

    Approved the thread.
  • Every group and their moms are selling albums in US. The bar is on the damn floor if you have to say SM acts but sure you never know :pepe-flirt:

  • but how many sales was that? It could be like 20 copies lol.

  • Of course aespa will make it they've already caught up to itzy a 3 year group in debut without specifically targeting the west, the concept is a global gaming virtual reality thing that's sure to attract tech heads and they have a cinematic universe? at this point anyone that says aespa will flop to western audience is in hard denial

  • Thank you naevis :pepe-angel: aeskarma coming back round once again to embarrass allkpop users lol

  • I have no doubt they will be the most successful sm act in the west, but I don't think they can become the most successful kpop gg in the west.

  • they have significant steady rise after that questionable handful US promo and still don't have US distribution label.

    As someone mentioned, this increase is misleading if they don't specify sales of the previous week. You also have to specify what making it in the west means, many groups sell a fair amount of albums but besides BTS and BP nobody are getting relevant quantity of streams. The gap is big

  • Aespa are already succeeding in the west. They were invited to do the thanks giving parade which is a national holiday in the U.S


    I believe they are destined for great things. I expect a number 1 hit on the u.s billboard in the next couple of years

  • I believe they will be one day, they've got what it takes and a strong fan base so far

    meaning aespa will be succeeding not only in niche western kpop fans but at least they'll be reached Bp success. Their metaverse concept is major advantage since every big tech company will be on metaverse in the next few years. World is changing so fast couple of years this weird concept will become relevant. Aespa will be valued as being early adopter.


    Combined these with aespa always proved everyone wrong (aeskarma) so you get the answer that they'll make it.

  • Does anyone else think the sales could decrease a bit or at least plateau for their next comeback? But I think it depends a lot on their teasers, their teasers get a lot of hype and people could want to buy their album for the photobooks with the pictures of that concept. How many copies of Savage did the china bars buy and do they have any traction among japanese Kpop fans.

    A lot of wishful thinking, there's legit nothing suggesting they might come anywhere near bp in the west. You clearly were not there for bp's early years, their numbers during 2016-17 are superior to what other girl groups get now, let that sink in

    we can't possibly knew the amount of China bars bought since it's against government regulations. Yes, they have tractions among japanese Kpop fans especially winter the most popular. She's included in the top10 most searched idol. If you search her japanese tags in twitter you 'll see and oh her fancams too

  • Early years BP couldn't beat twice numbers let that sink in first. Meanwhile aespa is the leading group of 4th gen now.

    Only in korea & japan were twice bigger, bp dominated everywhere else (this thread is about west). At one point twice & bp dominated girl groups in general, aespa & itzy have always had the "4th gen" tag attached to it and will likely always have it. The only thing you can wish for is bp disbanding otherwise that wall will always be there

    Blackpink has been kicking every kpop gg's ass in the west since 2017 before they were even a year old?? In what universe were Twice ever doing better than them in the west

    One of the most hilarious comments I've ever seen on AKP as well as an amazing work of sci fiction

  • they signed with warner, so have they succeeded in the west? aeskarma what

  • Damn who revived this thread? I read the title and thought it was a set up only to read the comments and find out the topic is old and the comments aged like milk on a hot day in summer.
