Oop ignore my reply then
SKZ still haven't really entered top100 though I think to date TXT are the only 4th gen BG to do so (at least multiple times, maybe AB6IX did it idk)
Shocked The Boyz haven't achieved it yet seeing how popular they seem to be domestically (at least for 4th gen BG standards but it kinda seems like they're losing some of their hype)
They only couldn't last year because they missed a few spots just like txt, pretty sure all popular bgs this year Will achieve that
Not that weird considering even monsta x are charting plenty of weeks on daily chart and they are just behind txt with the most streams in first 24 hours, even if previous years they couldn't enter. Chart is favoring bgs, they all will see career highs now. It started with nct dream.

pretty good for an unknown, irrelevant group!

are FIGHTING to save their failed, collpased, DESTROYED careers. They will be begging for scraps on the street by end of 2022
Yes, absolutely, Sneakers under-performed badly and a course correction is needed, but "save their careers"? Their careers are fine dear.
Aren't there many groups ahead them when ir comes to physical sales in 2022?

I also dont get how hanteo can be more than Gaon.
Gaon - track shipment
Hanteo - track customer sales
Hanteo > gaon means more customer bought than label shipped.. it is weird unless label shipped to non-gaon certified stores which is hanteo certified (confusing @.@)
it's really weird because in all my time as kpop fan i have only seen it happening few times but the numbers on gaon grew bigger after a few weeks, like with baekhyuun latest album. if g-idle album indeed had more hanteo than gaon for months it's really a curious case and funny how nobody ever questioned it lol
edit: actually looking for old threads about it, I found out both 4minute and btob had these kinds of discrepancies with their previous albums so it seems to be a cube thing...

Idle's last release the gaon and hanteo were matching (funnily, hanteo was slightly ahead). They only recently shipped some new Gaon recently.
Smaller groups also match. I feel you should probably cast a more extensive net before making absolute statements.
No. Hanteo is hanteo certified sellers selling direct to customer. Gaon certification is shipping - SM store is Gaon certified. They sell to say Ktown4u (as just a general example), and that's a Gaon sale. Ktown4u has yet to sell that to the customer. It's possible to have Hanteo above Gaon.
There are Hanteo certified customers outside of Korea. They're a completely separate entity measuring direct sales.
Funnily enough, all the commentary now that this has been pointed out is "oh everyone always knows". Funny that pointing out what "everyone knows" is getting a pretty hostile reaction.
It's not about your faves, it's simply that labels are using stock sales or production runs as "pre-orders" both *technically* true in the sense they are order to be shipped, but disingenuously presented as sales when they are yet to be such. I'll say the same no matter who group is, but this is probably the most recent example and honestly, the most egregious.
Isn't it really weird for a group to have more hanteo sales than gaon? I remember cube being suspected of sajaegi when 4minute volumen up had bigger sales on hanteo than gaon. If anything g idle having such numbers is the fishy thing here

But I was told nct only have chinese mass buyers as fans ...

you really didn't read the last part of my post. all I said is that aespa's sales are surprising at first but when you really think about it, not really. like they're matching boy groups in terms of sales. use ur reading comprehension skills pls
Nah u wrote "we all been thinking this" meaning everyone has been agreeing with what OP said, that aespa sales aren't only shocking but also suspicious and it's not possible they are real. Maybe you are the one who should have read past the title because OP isn't talking about surprising results but about fraud, sajaegi and fake sales. Only few users like your fellow blinks agree w that.
-
don't even have the energy to read through all of this but we've all been thinking this. obviously because it's uncommon for a girl group to sell this much.espc when they aren't exactly beating all girl groups in streaming.
however I think aespa's complex storyline has turned their fandom into something that is more similar to a boy groups' fandom.
define "we all" because right now it looks like it's only a few pressed gg stans doubting it, everyone else who follows kpop and how much the market grew isn't as shocked as you guys
-
More than 900k that's for sure. Don't know how much exactly. What I have observed is that this first half of the year, specially this last month, SM focused on restocking NCT yearly projects and NCT Dream albums, it wouldn't surprise me if this second half of the year with 127's comeback they also restock some of their previous ones. It's a shame because both Neo Zone and Favorite have surpassed the million mark but they don't have a certificate because of kihnos being counted separately.
Yeah I noticed that too that's why sadly there's no update about favorite. I hope they go all out when it's 127 and Wayv turn, I want then to get their certificates
-
Or maybe the admins have to rest you know, they might have a life outside kpop
-
I think it happened once. But it wasn't only songs I didn't like, it was also a mix of losing interest on them as individuals plus realizing I didn't like their performances a lot. So they went from being my bias to just another group I like and support
What happens more often is me being so close to stanning a group because I liked a release then they release something I don't like so I never end up becoming a fan

It's kinda sad seeing all these blinks who I used to think were normal slowly losing their minds over a rookie group who is just minding their business singing about the black mamba and kwangya. They really became the fandom they used to fight

How much is their album ?
