probably Kai I guess

I'm basic, but it's Whee! for me. But I really love Switch Off too. But I can listen to the whole album back to front easy peasy.

You don't like armageddon? Ngl this is my first time seeing anyone saying this!
maybe my least favorite SM girl group song ever lol, the chorus is incredibly grating to me

but how much accurate is international streams ???
Jimin "Who" is able to do achievements like gangnam style on spotify when nobody ever heard this song in their life besides army
one thing this NJ vs HYBE situation thaught us is that international streams are push a lot by company behind the scenes tactics
cuz you can clearly see the difference in NJ streams when they were push by HYBE money and ressources before the drama
and then see how big of a drop their stream had once Hybe gave up on them after the drama with How sweet and supernatural streams
they used to do 2M streams and this time they were barely able to make 1.3M
one thing who didn't change was korean charting
regardless of pre-hybe drama or after hybe drama, NJ have always been able to have great performance in the chart
which makes me think that international streams are boosted a lot by the ressources of a company
compare to korean charting
that's why i personally give more credibility to korean charting than international stream now
also even if LSFM's foreign streams are really good, if other groups outdo them in the two other metrics (album sales/domestic charting), then I still would put them behind that other group. Babymonster's last comeback outsold LSFM, did much better on Melon, and did way better on youtube (altho we 100% know that can literally be bought). If LSFM comes back and performs worse than before and BM keeps improving, then idk how BM can't be the #5 group.

Maybe, if it totally bombs then perhaps Babymonster could pass them? Drip is still hanging around in the top 20 of Melon which is a lot better than Crazy did. And apparently their last album sold better than LSFM's too.

she already reached her peak. She was the #1 gg member on the Gallup poll in 2017 and #2 in 2018 and 2019 (and #1 for those respective years changed both times, so on average Irene was the most popular). And in that time she was the absolute queen of ads and was basically inescapable. But in 2020 even before her scandal happened Jennie had definitely become the undisputed it-girl over her (and Nayeon). Probably she could have maintained her popularity a bit more but there was no stopping Wonyoung and Karina, they passed her/Jennie/Nayeon just like how Irene and then Jennie ended up passing Suzy.
Also her solo album sold 390k copies, like her solo career is objectively successful. There's even a chance she'll be more profitable than RV from here on out because I don't think her cbar is going to bother buying the group albums anymore and they were a big chunk of RV's sales. That may be why I&S is coming back again too (although I'm still very excited for that).

pitchfork has been so unprofessional lately, I guess they just lost all their cultural cachet and are now trying to use ragebait to get engagement?
-
ohhh I'm so excited. This sounds so good!

it won't be until 2026, I think there is a real chance Lay would participate in the title track + album but basically no chance of him touring with them. However, I do truly believe they will tour. I think it would rake in so much money that it's too much for them to resist lol.

I moved to Korea in 2014, and yeah this song was absolutely inescapable lol. One of the first kpop songs I was ever aware of.
