It does, but it will rise. Sometimes we focus too much on time-bound achievements as a fandom we forget that BlackPink is a force to reckon with. They'll be fine especially they'll have a performance on Jimmy Kimmel soon.
Trueee!

YESSSSSSSS

you should listen happiest girl
it's literally her songwell all the girls sound amazing tbh but jisoo gives that flavor with her falsetto imo .

I think it's because this came after Pink Venom, and there are other songs so people's attention is divided among the different songs
I remember Lovesick Girls suffering the same fate after HYLT and Ice Cream so it wasn't a surprise, but Shut Down is musically amazing for me and it deserves more hehe!

Jisoo's deep voice KILLED THE CHORUS! Again, appreciate BLACKPINK that they go for a vocal chorus, and the song with the vocal chorus was nice! I think Jisoo and Rose should have sang all the choruses because Jennie and Lisa already got a lot of rap parts, which would make the line distribution fairer.
One question, the BP songs with vocal choruses always get slower views :(((((

Our preferences of listening are really diverse.
Yes Or Yes is a song which I have instantly liked since the first listen and has been on repeat, my feelings of the song never changed.
Loco is a song which I loved in the first listen but gradually gets boring over time, which is a "cup of milk".
How You Like That is a song which I disliked at first but something dragged me in to listen to it 2-3 times in a short period after that and it began to grew on me and was on repeat.
La Di Da is a song which I felt it was too boring when it was first released, and it didn't have the wow factor for me to listen to it again. But months later, which is a long period, I just randomly checked it out and suddenly it became good.
The Feels is a song which I loved at first, got a bit boring after that, but became good again when I took a break from it for a short time.
Signal is a song which I really felt weird, but because it was TWICE it was always interesting, so I gave it so many chances like 7-8 listens, and when I liked it, it still didn't catch up with other TWICE titles.
So the thing is I can like a song in any listen, but the song has to have enough charm to drag us in for next listens even if we don't like it. If a song doesn't have that factor, one bad listen is already enough to get over that song. If a song has the wow factor, we can still click on it even the first listens are not that good. Some songs rely on pure luck though.

The song is actually really good. A lot of people, especially in the fandom seemed to have liked it.
I have a feeling if TTT had charted well, everyone woulda been like oh this song is so good! Kpop is just odd like that sometimes.But I do think QoH would had been a very interesting title track choice, I almost wish I lived in an alternative universe where they chose QoH instead and see how it charts.
They knew QoH is good, otherwise they wouldn't have bothered making a live clip video of it.💯 I think QOH 100% can be the title, like how did they put Scientist as the title and put the actual great songs as B-sides :((((((

I think Twice also knew it might not click with everyone.
On their live showcase for this comeback, they mentioned that they'll be happy as long as Onces like it.Both have Collapsedone in it but for me I do think that I prefer The Feels more, but Talk That Talk is quite nice as well, as a song for ONCEs I think it is really good. Queen Of Hearts lyrics also feel like they are connecting with ONCEs. I feel like this comeback as a whole is wholesome, energetic, and fun, because I skipped all of the bad comments on Facebook that I usually see.

I don't "unstan" any groups because I take a long time to stan. And when I do stan, I will be very loyal.
SCIENTIST that bitch! I can't believe they almost dropped Cry For Me and then got Scientist at the title! At least The Feels, Alcohol-Free and Talk That Talk were all great. TWICE will still be ults hahaa.
I love ITZY's teen crush concept that's why I didn't have too much love for MITM and Loco, although they were good at first listens. That's also why I was so happy when Sneakers came.
Let's say I have a complicated relationship with BLACKPINK. I like some of their music but never liked the toxic fans especially in my country, which keep me from liking BP more. And I believed that the comebacks of DDDD and KTL were not my favorites. But HYLT and Lovesick Girls nailed it, I think they deserved their success more than the two former songs. For me, BP should release more songs like the old days, most recently an old song Ready For Love reminded me of Forever Young which was also early produced.

I'm always anxious about the stats when they don't do well, but in the end I like the song, so it is fine. It's just a bit sad for me because I did thought that Talk That Talk fitted Korean taste.
And by that I meant they should have let Queen Of Hearts as the title track since QOH won't touch the Korean market but will definitely succeed in the international market.

My theory is just the core fandom has just gotten older and at a different stages of life now where theyre not as free. They simply don't have time to do stuff like mass stream and their comeback is just not vibing with the GP.
That explains why sales numbers remain high and continues to grow, because those fans can still purchase albums even if they don't have time.
They're not also acquiring new and younger fans as quickly as other groups. 4th gen groups will naturally acquire new kpop fans just being more more new, recent and trendy. Just like now when kpop grew here, fans naturally check out 3rd gen and not 2nd get, we're now at the stage where new fans are checking out 4th gen instead.
Twice concept and image is not as domestically resilient as other concepts, the cute concept. Sadly Korea and alot of other similar countries focuses alot on youth. Alot of these fans will jump ship as soon as a newer, younger, fresher group debuts and they have been doing so for years slowly. But again, theyre still growing and gaining fans, that has not peaked but just not as quickly as others. Young members is a commonality amongst the top groups right now if you haven't noticed.
This is why some groups are shifting internationally as which I think is smart. The US specifically couldn't careless about the youth of a group. Twice international numbers are decent. Their global Spotify is doing just fine, touring numbers are phenomenal, US album sales are better than almost all groups, etc.
Twice is at the stage now where they can't just top charts with their name alone, but most of 3rd gen cant either. Their release have to actually be really good and TTT is great IMO but it's not 5 star great which is why it's not tanking like most group would by this point but still stable at the 30-40s. It's been 7-8 years already, en entire generation has shifted. Original Onces are now starting college or work life.
Of course there will be exceptions, so don't quote me going this group this and that.
Perfectly described!

Bolder after contract renewal YES 🙌

NewJeans with their fresh music, for me.
IVE is a combination of factors. Their music is unique, really, the sounds used in Eleven, Love Dive and After Like are very amazing and have replay value, I think this is the best reason. They have two former IZ*ONE members and one of them is a popular person in Korea. Hype is already there since the start. And all of those factors combined to form an amazing girlgroup.
