I was expecting Everglown blow up with the release of 72.80....(I can't remember the name, sorry) What went wrong?

Idk why, I also liked Ladida a lot and thought they would explode in popularity with ifans , but even with them the song "flopped" in comparison to Dun Dun. I understand there could be reasons why korea doesn't pay attention to them but ifans also ignoring everglow after Dun Dun is very weird to me ...

i am even surprised that fromis9 has more album sales than EG. I can't even name one fromis9 member or song

It wasn't remotely similar to Adios\Dun Dun so casual fans ran away.

And then I checked this site called Kpopping (it's a K-pop database in case you haven't heard of it already 😏) for Everglow's music show wins and saw that Everglow'd won last year on The Show with their song First so... 🥲

I liked La Di Da as well but I guess the koreans did

Ladida was ok, but overrated. I'm the leading expert on retro music since i'm literally the only one that actually lived through the 80s on here and i can tell you that Ladida was a misfire. There's a certain sound that retro needs to have to be considered great and this song didnt have it, it's too amped up and loud. Much like another song that came out a month later, whICh Shall not be naMed here . The best part of Ladida was Yiren's "Everglow forever let's go".

This is what GREAT retro sounds like:

And dont forget this SOTY contender that's mostly retro with a little bit of trap.

Ladida was one of the Best Kpop song released that year ( i remember some articles putting the song in their tops) Untouchable is a fucking bop, and the rest of the song are nice too. So what happen, why Everglow don't experiment a growth in their sales like many Kpop groups did during the pandemic?

Because everglow wasn't consistent and released first right after this, which is outdated EDM. They went back to an out of the boc concept with Pirate which was a step in the right direction but it could never be a hit, because again the EDM is overdone. They should try something new and I know Yuehua has the resources to do it given Yena's solo

I think it would have been better for them if they released Pirate right after dun dun to keep the hype. Of course kpop stans would have done the usual and called it noisy trash but it would have done quite well overall. I know a lot of people who got interested in them again after pirate but it's a little late.

Ladida is one of their best songs imo but it lost them a lot of casuals.
