all i see is twt links

they load for me. so I can see the actual tweets. I had to wait a few seconds though

Dynamite really just made BTS explode in Japan.

with old albums and songs re-entering charts and their season's greetings selling an absurd amount... its going to be an interesting year for BTS in Japan

(their season's greetings normally sell 40-50k in previous years)

2020s did 80k first week......

They also occupied 10/100 entires on the album Recochoku chart (#1 download platform) and had 5/20 of the most streamed albums on Line Music a few days ago.

They also have 15 songs charting in the top 200 of JPN spotify

#1 - Dynamite

#35 - Life Goes On

#39 - Stay Gold

#65 - BWL

#83 - SLR

#91 - Your eyes tell

#101 - DNA

#110 - ON

#118 - Lights

#142 - Fly to My room

#145 - Blue & Grey

#150 - Fake Love

#179 - Telepathy

#182 - IDOL

#186 - Stay

Quote from a_song_calling_f

Yeah m so thankful for the exponential growth we got thanks to MOTS7 . The album numbers are astronomical

if only BH hadn't given us a $50 album after that... it would have been insane to see BEs #'s if it was normally priced and haf their 4 normal versions

Quote from hueningkaiskai

i feel like im the only one remembers the amount of hate black swan got

the only positive thread released that day was surprisingly by hardcoreblink

rest of them were complaining about the autotune lol

I mean it wasn't armys really. Also everyone literally uses autotune to drag every single BTS release... so like its not a surprise at all

Quote from a_song_calling_f

That was very stupid ! BS rollout was shitty, ON too . But they did promote it on talk shows and gave one of the most mesmerizing appearances but it was sadly too late.

In the end.. its pretty obvious ON and Black Swan did its job and brought in many people into the fandom. I mean look at the growth between MOTS:7 and Dynamite. This tends to happen with BTSs songs. The songs that are very much performance songs bring in a lot of fans. so ON contributed to one of if not BTSs biggest growth period in their career

Quote from a_song_calling_f

Army ignored signals given by BTS too and treated it like a bside i still have ptsd lmao

To be fair. It didn't help that BH didn't even release its actual MV until march... so by the time it was performed on music shows.... ON and the rest of the album was released...

Black Swan got like no push, no teasers even.

Quote from hueningkaiskai

LMAO this meme

Quote from a_song_calling_f

LGO doing that with a month and a half lmao . That's what kpoppies like to call a flop ? :D

BTS is like half top 10 with 50 more songs having more than 100 million streams.

Ngl though blackswan was done dirty by armys . It deserved the full BTS treatement.

Black Swan deserved just as many (if not more) streams as Dynamite.

Wow its just fate that BTS holds the #7 spot with a song from their 7th year. the 7 agenda has followed them the entire 2020 and is even following them into 2021. After seeing BTS as 7 again at GDA... it just felt so right and just full.

Already past 240M streams in 2021 in just 12 days

Quote from a_song_calling_f

svt done very well this year selling over 2 mils. Hilarious how a subsidiary of BH sold more than a big3 staple.

whats even more impressive is that this takes into account gaon sales and not sales of their JPN release sales on oricon. And they sold over 700k there this year with their JPN releases so including oricon sales would only increase sales

Quote from drchimchim

I have a feeling that MOTS era is not over yet. "FEAR" hint that came out in MAMA is supposedly related to Carl Jung again. You might need to update MOTS data in the future

Definetly

Quote from taesv6

wasn’t treasure supposed to win lol.

congrats anyways

nope cause it only takes into accout the first physical release for an act so only Treasure first release from August was counted vs. Enhypen's first release from November. And in that case. Enhypen has the best selling rookie group album for 2020 with 379k sales

wait a min

coca cola sponsers the olympics...

ohhhh......

thats interesting

lets see when and if the olympics happen

Quote from a_song_calling_f

whoaaaaaa. I mean i know they were the bigger things to happen to kpop. But seeing those astronomical numbers blows my mind

wait until you see the BE/Dynamite ERA one I'm making.

Quote from sati1234

One of my favourite thread on old allkpop forum and thanks for making this thread again.

Yeah it was one of the first ones I made sure to save so I could repost it. Plus the numbers needed a little updating as many of the albums and songs from these eras keep on achieving more & more
