IVE is known for having upbeat song and fun choreography. However, it was such a huge mistake for Starship to release 2 songs and called it as a title track, but have no choreography. This 2 songs worked very well as a promoted B-side with a MV.

Newjeans like Attention, Hype Boy and Cookie, have a choreography to called it as Title Track. There is basically no title track from them that have no choreography. Starship used the strategy wrong and releasing Friday 1 AM didn't help too when they aren't ready for the west. They haven't even distribute album to the west yet.

I hope Baddie actually have choreography, but can't expect anything from Starship this comeback.

Same date as IVE tho

13 hours

already a bop

and if Riot were communist like that other member here and didn’t care about making money then you’d have your way

Sorry, but I don't see how Newjeans singing this song gonna make more money than other group singing it. LoL itself is a very popular game. People aren't gonna start playing LoL and watch esport just becuase Newjeans sing the song. In fact, it probably cost less for Aespa than Newjeans so why don't think find someone who is less expensive and actually fit the vibe of the song?

Quote from Flowercrew

Unfortunately, they weren't chosen😢

Sadly, it didn't. I think Aespa match the concept and vibe quite well. I just don't think Newjeans suit the vibe of this song. It's just not "cool" enough. I think girl-crush group like Aespa, Lesserafim or XG just to name a few is just a better option. I didn't mention G-idle because they already have one. Pop/star was so good.

But I'm curious on how would it be if Aespa is the one who sing it?

I think some parts of the song would be flavorful if they were sung by WinNing or Karina

I think Aespa suit this concept very well. Their Kwangya concept definitely give gamer vibe.

Quote from YamaChwan

I talk about both, fam. Look me up and verify that.

The post would've been twice as long if I included the domestic accomplishments of Get Up.

I mean, we've been here before. Only two girl group songs have ever been #1 on the Melon for 50 days or longer--Ditto and Super Shy. Only one group even has two songs that have charted at #1 for 50 days or longer on Melon--NewJeans.

Stop the cap and stop the unwarranted comparisons.

They're on that next level

And I'll throw in--I wonder why Starship is dropping the remaining title tracks on FRIDAY instead of MONDAY, if all we care about is K-O-R-E-A. That's something you only do if you're targeting the song tracking period for international charts like Billboard, since it's a terrible day to drop a new song for Korean charting.

lol bro there is so many achievement out there yet, you used the most useless achievement that literally prove nothing. Your so-call having more #1 is depending on time and competition. Having more #1 prove nothing but they release at a correct time.

How their entire album charted on top 100 of Melon or Hype Boy's longevity would be a better achievement than having more #1

Quote from Bloom-of-Alfea

to my knowledge they only released an MV, and haven't promoted it on music shows or elsewhere.

I think they will start promotion after they release Baddie

It is a title track by Starship, but it didn't get a decent rollout by the company sadly. The reason why a title track is called a title track is because a company will promote them. Ether Way is a title track, but it should be called as a b-side with a MV with how they promote them.

They may think that they are gonna promote the song after the album release and it got a MV so it is called as a "title track". However, I think they need to do a better job so that everyone should at least know that IVE have released something.

Quote from catzi

And even with just 1 mv as promotion Either Way peaked higher than Cool With You that had much stronger promotion - 3 music videos, 2 celebs appearances and 1 dance practice. People underestimate Either Way's performance on charts only because it's Ive.

I didn't mention any other song because I don't want to create fanwar, but you mention it

Quote from K-PL

Yes this could be definitely why they haven't turned on the juice yet, and are pressuring them to sign new contracts.

Kitsch - Melon Peak #1, 496,449 ULs

Either Way - Melon Peak #13, ~125,000 ULs

Both are pre-release title tracks, just 5 months apart, yet they have dropped 75% in ULs or 375,000 ULs. Its just mean that they are not helping to fully market them like before. It makes them look like they are B-Tier.

They were already promoting Kitsch before Kitsch was released. They went to some variety show like Amazing Saturday to promote them. However, for Either Way, SS did no shit with them. Also, Kpop group ballad tend to not do well.

Starship isn't doing their best for IVE this comeback for sure. However, the competition was never a problem. IVE is one of the top digital monster in Korea right now. They should only be afraid of BTS, NewJeans, IU, LYW, and AKMU(Maybe I missed some )

and for internationally, unless Columbia or Starship do something to promote them in the west, they won't go higher.I still can't believe that their album isn't distribute to the US yet? like Cravity have their own store like with how popular IVE is shouldn't Starship do thing faster? like they are too uncompetitive is a problem.

Quote from HardcoreBLINK

I think they're doing well

They're adapting with every CB,they clearly have faith in ive

clearly not this comeback. They have been doing poorly so far. Let's see how it goes for the other 2 tts.

I still remember when people shitting on it charting, but now it is doing well

Quote from HardcoreBLINK

Starship?

Starship being shit = star💩

Quote from catzi

The fact that Ive skyrocketed sse in profit yet a good looking mv with good song is the max they thought they could do for ive is mindblowing. I feel sorry for the girls

This is pretty much the worst comeback promotion ever by them for sure. There is not a single media and tweet about Either Way is just mindblowing like I don't know why they did nothing to promote the song at all.

Their OTR and Baddie is coming in 2 weeks so hopefully, Starship have great promotion for those 2. Otherwise, Starship need to fired whoever promote them.

I don't know what Starship smoking on this comeback. It is like they hired an anti to promote them this comeback lol

IVE RELEASED 'EITHER WAY' BUT IS BEING ACCUSED OF COPYING NEWJEANS' CONCEPT - YouTube

Another channel talk about it look at the comment, It is funny.

is people blind and deaf or what
