AKP has been hating on Jennie ever since those braindead 'Jennie is lazy' accusations popped up

Playlisting effect because the group is still struggling to cross 500k followers with 26M monthly listeners.
Also it’s crazy you think Dynamite didn’t do anything for BTS when this was them. Y’all find it so hard to celebrate other group’s success without trying to downplay BTS

Cupid got added to playlists *because* it went viral, not because their company paid for it.
Fifty Fifty's follower count doesn't refute my point, it's the song that went viral not the group. If anything it's impressive that such an unknown group managed to get such a massive hit.

I just told you as someone who lives in central europe my experience I literally got annoyed with dynamite since it was so frequently played everywhere even on goverment founded radio channels where they don't give an f what the public expecially the younger demographic wants to hear so how cupid is performing on spotify means nothing to me spotify is pretty nieche in my country anyways
You can't just pick and choose which criteria matters more lol.
Anyways, I live in Central Europe too and can say that lots of Kpop songs get played in public.
Popularity wise, Cupid hasn't peaked yet, so we can't say for sure how big of an impact the song has right now.

besides bts (and Gangnam style) I didn't hear any kpop songs in super markets and other plane commercial stores since they use the most basic goverment radio channels
cupid is not viral here I only hear it on tiktok on the other hand you could basically hear dynamite everywhere even outside of soicial media.....
(not saying cupid is not big just that it's not that widely known yet)
I too have heard BP songs at stores before but I acknowledge that that's not the ultimate criteria for a hit song. Both BP and BTS have massive fandoms that can maintain a song at the top for a very long time which explains their success but makes Fifty Fifty with no big company or a big budget behind them even more impressive.
Cupid alone brought the group 26 million listeners on Spotify, I doubt that Dynamite could have done the same if their other songs were removed from the app.

Gurl its a hit on European radios which u would know if u r plasticrose
I've been around longer than you (;

lies I live in central europe and it was everywhere here I heard it multple times a day in a the radio like in supermarkets clothing shops etc.
also in multple ads on tv (never heard kpop in ads before)
they also used it as a bgm in news segments a lot
hell last time I was in Rossmann I heard dynamite then My universe playing after the other
This is exactly why Kpop stans always exaggerate the success of Kpop songs. There are multiple, and I mean multiple Kpop songs which were played dozen of times in retail stores and at random public places or in TV, namely those from BTS, Blackpink and some other big groups.
They literally just use popular playlists which every BP and BTS song gets put in due to their massive popularity and fanbase anyway. That's why it's no big feat when their songs reach number 1 on Spotify, it's expected.
If the amount of times a song is played in public is a strong criteria for a hit song then EVERY song from those 2 groups have to be considered a global hit which a) is not true and b) downplays the virality of actual smash hits like Cupid.

Dynamite became the most streamed song in Global AM at the end of 2021
I repeat GLOBAL, it means more than 3 countries.
Also, talk about initial success all you want but the higher peaks were achieved later, truly a long-sustained HIT.
The biggest in kpop in the last decade
It's crazy how nobody cares about 'kpop's biggest song of the last decade' only 3 years after its release

US and Korea?
One of its biggest countries where Dynamite unexpectedly blew up was Japan (none of their own Korean or Japanese songs have ever replicated this success since), and that wasn’t even the target market for the song.
I’m not from either of those countries you mentioned and even I’ve heard and seen it being used and played in public in my own country. It’s basically the main song they’re known for outside of Kpop circles.
3 countries still do not account for global success.
I have heard plenty of Kpop songs played on the radio or on TV but I'm not delusional enough to think that they went viral like Gangnam Style and Cupid did. Dynamite's initial success is the result of mass streaming and advertizing anyway, call it a manifactured hit song if you will.

They aren't an established group yet.

I tend to agree. It's impressive how one viral song allowed a nugu group to reach +25 million listeners on Spotify and don't get me started on how viral it is on Tiktok.
However, as someone mentioned before, Cupid's success is as of now limited to social media but I can see it becoming popular among locals too.
It's still nowhere near Gangnam Style but it takes the 2nd place

most of her twitter fansites chose not to stream the song because they said she only had ~25 seconds of lines in it.
