btw can someone look back the thread whereby people were dismissing IVE for possibly crossing 1 mil sales this era
This is such a joke now..

Chaehyun is the centre cuz she ranked #1 in the final, they didn’t make her the center, the voters did. Personally I think Xiaoting fits the centre position the best but her nationality worked against her
Chaehyun was #1 because of the system. If they take overall votes at same weightage, Chaehyun is #9, that says a alot about her popularity. She is not the most popular one in the group no matter how many want to defend that
Bahiyyih is #1 while Xiaoting is #2 or 3 i forgot.
The mistake is they didnt make Xiaoting the permanenet center. She obviously is the best center material in the group alongside Dayeon (but i still think Xiaoting visual is more attractive)
actually poor quality of albums (photoshoots, photo placement in albums, a lot of empty pages) probably will be a reason I'll drop collecting IVE I have Love Dive album and i'm not a fan of physical copies. I didn't pre-order After Like and i watched unboxing and they have the same problem. Will see, maybe starship will put some actual effort into pacjaging next time.
I agree on the poor quality of albun design
But I think they focus more on photocards (which explains the huge sales). Their selfie photocards are so far the BEST in the industry (and YG is worst in photocard)
Isn’t it hard to outpeak in UL your breakout with the next release? I don’t remember any gg doing that since tt twice
I think usually breakout GG can have at least 3 hit songs. After Like seems to be reflecting the good will they had for Eleven and Love Dive.
Similarly, Savage too had a great start after Next Level. Their next release DCT (not a single) did quite well too considering it is a remake and not promoted. It reached top 10 alongside GOT (which includes half of aespa)
Klt has more ul and longevity than whistle so idk why people think it's not a hit:4.2-3 unique listeners kinda
KTL didn't have good longevity but i think its big peak, ULs, YT views kinda made up for that. And it is not like KTL has no longevity, it was just not as good as their previous songs
Not sure about the USA but here in my country Malaysia, BP is more easily accepted then BTS. The biggest reason of hate that BTS got is the looking like a girl and wear make ups. Seriously. Some young ARMYs even got jumped on for wearing BTS merchs. I don’t know why people can hate based on that reason.
Well, BP is getting protest for holding concert in Malaysia too.. but i agree, generally boy groups (and flower boys in particular) get more hates and harder to be accepted
Allkpop always has mostly negative reactions to
hype bpall popular GG new songs.
fixed for you
GGs will never win
Whichever song is released, they will be hated
believe me, soon the other groups stans will say Australia is irrelevant.
1) bboom bboom is far from being the most successful song
2) i personally think Baam is the better song. Bboom bboom is more fun with the choreo, without the choreo it is just an okay song
Serious?!!!
Making fun of mental health issue is not acceptable
i dont think it needs to be dissected. it just didn't hit it off like the other august group release. could be a riser could not.
Im curious about how dropping in 2nd hour works. Not particular to twice song.. cause as user above pointed out, ITZY also similarly had the drop
Why do songs never decline 2nd hour? I think even some itzy songs have similar charting. They need promo for exposure.
Im curious is this how it works?
New song wont lose ULs (not 24 hours yet). It will continue to accumulate ULs.
Dropping rank means there are some songs gain more ULs than the song right?

If you're under this, i think your long temr financial viability and survivability will always be a question mark as a group.
I think u can split 2mil in another category. Cause 2mil is already BG territory (previously).
And New Jeans is seriously so impressive to me. The fact that they were a surprise group and dropped their debut with no real announcement and already have THAT many sales?? That's absolutely crazy to me.
i think NewJeans sell a lot because:
1) the weverse version (no CD only 10 photocards) are very cheap
2) the member versions are good for solo stans cause you get 5 photocards of your fave. No randomised pc
3) the bags, the fan girls like them a lot
im glad they're winning this week with 3 days of tracking only.
Cause next week PV has no chance against After Like which has good digital + physical points. + Attention is there with higher digitals
