i feel like there vocals were not good + they were screaming. but some of the critizism is so unnecessary, blame hybe for not having better vocal trainers .
What's done is done, impossible to change people's opinion now after they have made up their mind.
I think technical issues/mics not working properly kinda forced them to shout/scream. Nerves plus not being vocally talented enough just made everything worse.
They probably practiced in a controlled environment like a studio and sounded fine (acceptable) and thought it'll be the same during the actual show. Rookie mistake.

I don't know. Titles like nation's embarrassment and being known as dogshit singers by basically the entire nation is kinda hard to shake off.
They are only a 2 yo group, not sure they have built a big enough fandom to endure all the bad publicity yet. I also don't trust hybe/source music to keep supporting them. They dropped Gfriend real quick, can do the same to LSFM.
But it will be interesting to see if they can overcome this and be stronger/get more popular. Hoping they can surprise me.

Next time just post your thoughts without asking me stupid questions. Thank you
It was a rhetoric question. I didn't expect an answer as you wouldn't have any.

Why tf ur asking me if you can't even read the previous replies by icyruios and kpl that I'm replying to? Please leave the discussion to the ones who already know what they're arguing about
I've read enough. All this talk about hybe privilege, trying to diminish their results as in-organic.
But failing to mention all the other competitors also had their own privileges and somehow they are more organic.
Hypocrisy at its best.

There was no shock with Illit. The promos already started way before debut which is the opposite of newjeans. Before their debut, there were already multiple posts about their music on here.
The focus is also not only on Spotify. They are charting well on Melon and everywhere else. Only the fans are focusing on spotify.
As for post debut schedule, other than attending music shows, what else is similar?

I am not sure we have the same concept in mind. What's the concept you're describing?
"chill" vibe, girls dancing in their bedroom, dressroom with comfy clothes on, having fun and shit like that.

even the marketing strategy
NJs released their MVs with no announcement, no teasers and it was not available for streaming until a month later. They are currently releasing some CF fusion Jap/korea/english song before including it in their next comeback next month.
Their MV's usually are also longer with some sort of overarching story.
Illit releases are more traditional, multiple teasers. 1 MV for the title song only. The promotional strategy is completely different.
The only similarities I see are that they are both 5 members, young girls, similar age. Music are more chill instead of hard hitting girl crush songs.

twice success is mostly due their members charms and luck
Ok got it. JYP had shit promotions, gave twice shit songs and sabotage them every step of the way. The whole world was against them and they only somehow made it due to "charm" and "luck".
You are so dumb
When someone reverts to personal attacks. You know they lost already.

Twice creative team is everything but creative and their management has always being lackluster, twice success is mostly due their members charms and luck, with a bit of jyp when they do things right.
Twice can only dream that JYP will actually write good songs and promote them. Most of their songs since 2020 are shit and doesn't chart well. Keep crying, they are no longer relevant.

This isn't a fair comparison as kpop is much more popular globally these days. So globally its obvious newjeans will be more popular globally compared to SNSD ever was.
Looking at just South Korea, I think newjeans has the bigger peak compared to 2009/10 SNSD. Alot of people is comparing SNSD in hindsight after 7 years of growth and improvements against only the first year of NJS. But the question is 2009/10 SNSD when they were still noobies.
The thing about snsd's success is it's not just all about their group success but it translated also to the members. Yoona became IT girl, Sunny and sooyoung became variety queens, taeyeon became the ost queen.
I think GG opened more doors to fans being interested in KPOP music and with them being touted as "South Korea's / Nation's Girl Group" at one point in time, their popularity had sky-rocketed.
NJS is also starting to get alot of CFs/OSTs and there are lots of potential for the girls to grow and improve. They are brand ambassadors to luxury brands and selling out whatever they are advertising.
Everyone is dancing to Hype Boy similar to Gee back in the days.

Wow, there are so many
Neverlandssuccess stans hereFixed

Ive doing so poor. How do some people even call them as #2 4th gen gg
Ive is popular in korea and koreans don't use spotify. They use Melon and youtube music.
Spotify is not that relevant in the grand scheme of things. Its just something stans boast about when a group does well on it.

From what I've read about TTH and New Music Friday they are controlled by a pretentious gatekeeping group of people who are no different really to the controlling powers of radio.
It could really be something as simple as some people in that group being a stan of Newjeans or something. Who knows.
I just think its a combination of all the following:
- Connections
- the people that makes the decision being a stan
- amount of ads paid to spotify
- special favors provided to spotify (could be anything from getting the group to appear in their daughters birthday party who is a stan or appearing on some sort of spotify promoted content)
- the song being somewhat popular enough already for the list to not lose its prestige.
One things for sure, I doubt its some sort of fee where anyone can just pay to be on the TTH playlist.

Great, that means in a few yrs they will be able promote to 10mil+ streams in just a few days of release.
Looking forward to see the jealous tears when that occurs.

instead of golden spoons with 20M dollars budget
Don't you worry, they'll make it back plus more. Need to spend money to make money.
Unlike those nugu groups on shoestring budgets. Lucky to even get one good music video.
