If other groups released them, I don't think they would do as well

She just have a lot of casual fans and decent support from gp. Her fanbase isn't big nor strong. Not surprising for a female soloist.

No way they're gonna fit all those in 2nd quarter. I'm sure it's 2nd quarter until 3rd quarter

Ok this discourse is dumb and messy

Bc it's not their real cb. It's just sorta like a re-package of their albums. And I'm sure most of their already bought most of their albums

Don't ever name your pet after an idol ever. Your pet deserves his/her own Identity

It's hard to say bc it's like comparing apples and oranges.
BoA was at her peak around the early 2000s. When she was very very young before turning 20. And she also spent most of her time in Japan building up her career there. She was a household name both in Japan and Korea.
Different eras, different factors, different places/countries, different systems/measures....her era was basically at a time when internet wasn't as widely used as it is nowadays, no digital streaming platform, no social media, etc. YT may have already existed but during her time there wasn't like an official SM/BoA account, no Vevo yet, and the system of streaming mvs didn't exist yet/nobody cared abt streaming mvs on YT at the time and such... I guess you can only look at her physical sales record during her peak to compare.
Tho the problem with her career was that she debuted when she was too young and had her peak before she reached 20-25 yrs old. Somehow she didn't managed to maintain her glory as she grew older into adulthood and had problem adapting in current era. So basically her schtick is that she was this young talented kid in singing and dancing but as she grew older her popularity faded. SM was partly to blame cause they marketed her as such plus made her spend most her time in Japan thus she lost some of her popularity with the gp in Korea.
Despite that I think she's still doing pretty well, still relevant among the gp. If you ask random Koreans and Japanese, "Do you know BoA?" Chances are most of them know who she is. She may not sell as much physicals as she used to during her peak but she's still able to chart decently and would have no problems getting tv gigs. Plus she's an executive producer in sm, so she's rich and living a peaceful and comfortable life.
