It's going to be a nightmare for a non-bts non-bp group to chart on HOT100 now

  • They have filtered digital sales(only hope of kpop groups) sooo much

    Approved the thread.
  • Which group chart in hot 100 lately besides them anyway?

    WG and Psy charted thousands years ago if you want to count it.

  • is it about say alive :eyes:

  • JYP was lucky that Billboard changed their rules after The Feels charted, there's no way it would've charted with these new rules

  • Can't blame BB. It had become a playground for Kpop fans

  • Blackpink's comeback will be very telling, if even they have trouble charting then the rest are doomed

  • even bts will have a hard time

    I don't think it's going to affect their promoted releases (maybe longevity but not peak) but it's defiantly going to affect their collabs and non-promoted music because ARMY does not go all out for them.

    Streams are the only way out in this situation honestly, but maybe armys will find some other way.


    So groups should stop releasing on fridays to aim at hot 100 because it's practically impossible unless you have a super viral song in the us.

  • I'm out of the loop lately... so BB took out all of digital sales? Do streams still count?

  • It has always been a nightmare to begin with. lee so man oppa has been trying to get one to chart for over 20 years now

  • It has always been a nightmare to begin with. lee so man oppa has been trying to get one to chart for over 20 years now

    So other big 4 companies groups already has their group charting except lee soo man oppa groups? Yikes, No wonder he's so desperate lately.

  • pure sales only :p :P good luck to other groups

  • Good because I live in the US and I see kpop groups charting on Kpop but never hear their songs on radio or TV shows. That's why BTS can't win a Grammy because they don't have a lot of radio airplay time.

  • Lol. 4th gen groups never even had a chance. Most can't even chart on bb200 without physical album distribution. Even twice couldn't chart on bb200 until they got a distribution. From where will the streams come to chart or sales.
