first hour and alr 66 on melon, nice.
The fact that ELEVEN is charting so high on korean chart is really interesting and make me wonder what is the main factor. Not that im doubting IZONE impact we all know they were HUGE like literally behind BP and TWICE but they never have strong base for digital (and PD48 wasnt as popular as PD101 s1 and s2 among gp). What do u think the main factor that lead to IVE success debut? (not even Somi charting this high during her solo debut).
somi's solo debut was a whole 2 and a half years after ioi disbandment
she was the most popular member, any group that had her in it was going to do extremely well, and that's what happened with wonyoung (watch it happen with sakura too)
plus with yujin in the group and a ratio of 1:2 old to new faces, the group was already prepped for success. the old faces shine enough to catch attention, but there arent enough of them to overwhelm the new members.
add that to the three or four scandals that ive had this week (wonyoungs pretty scandal, yujins bra scandal, leeseo's age and a couple more im forgetting) and the viral leeseo fancams, and you have a successful song.
it also helps that the song is insanely catchy depite the lyrics being rubbish~
kinda meh
flop
#11 WOW oh my god hahah
do yall think theyll hit #1 cuz #10 is inevitable at this point
nakka supremacy
the entire album is full of masterpieces
leeseo again going kinda viral

this is like their third viral thing
first was wonyoung's "pretty scandal"
second was yujin's bra scandal
wow ive legends
because each time he has hype in korea, he releases music (which btw is all self composed)
and he doesnt release single albums. all his solo music that isnt on his full albums, are in winner albums, mobb albums, smtm, or collaborations.
xx was released alongside s5 and s6 of njttw (had upto 7% viewership in korea on a pay to watch chanel) and take was released with s8 of njttw (upto 7% viewership again), and since na pd adores mino, he always gets some promo in njttw. this time, to infinity is being released after smtm 10 where two songs he sang/produced hit #1 (maybe more im not tracking it)
mino has been active in his group since 2013... he cant even released group music because the winner members have enlisted-
the amount of music he releases isnt even that much- winner does get the best treatment in yg, but winner is a senior group that writes all of their own music, and yg is a company that gives its other groups well below the bare minimum.
istg just forget it
blackpink will go down in history as the biggest gg, with or without a daesang
i would rather blackpink wins something big internationally rather than in korea (where lisa has faced racism, jennie has been dragged whenever they got a chance, jisoo's drama was taken to the bluehouse based on a "leaked summary" and rose has been ignored)
i would prefer that their first daesang equivalent come from international fans instead.
WHAT OMG CAN WE SEE THE WHOLE VIDEO?
eh probably not
male or female bias, or even just a friend, it feels weird knowing about someone's personal life like that.
i stan idols to get away from the real world, and knowing that they are sponsored feels like a kick of reality that i'd rather avoid.
plus i find sponsorships creepy, weird and icky
personally i like 16 tzuyu's visuals more, she really had a youthful spark to her that made her shine
but at the end of the day both are tzuyu
