Exactly. Practically everyone in NJ is a minor and go to school. All of them have luxury deals and the best ones, not 2nd rate ones.
Its because #EVERYBODYKNOWS, including everyone in the advertising and marketing industries in Korea.
Because #EVERYBODYKNOWS
It is really NJ for the younger females and LSF for the more mature females
The only thing that really counts is profit and loss.
Some companies with weird album sales patterns, that are different to the rest of the industry, may be spending big with "creative marketing" and polluting the environment with landfill.
Just look at concert sales where there are receipts and pr articles. You cannot Sajaegi them.
The true picture is the profit and loss. A group might have more revenue, but if a massive amount is spent on "marketing" then they not making much profit or even losing money.
Like you posted it varies, the criteria varies for different people
Some would say sales worldwide, i.e. concert tickets and merch. In that case it would be BP and Twice
Some would say digitals in just Korea, so that would be NJ
Some would say digitals in Globally, so that would be fifty fifty
Some would say album sales in Korea, so that would be BP and Aespa
Some would look at growth, which would be NJ, or the lack of growth vs all other groups.
Some only look the current situation, but others look at the past. Then it would be SNSD if you are looking at only Korean achievements or BP for worldwide achievements
The one that makes the most profit is sales worldwide, which dwarfs profits in Korea
Youtube charts are far more democratic, they don't block japanese artists. I'm praying every day for Melon to die soon so we can have a platform who don't manipulate chart methodology to benefit certain artists
YouTube Music surpasses Melon Music as the most used streaming platform on Android in South Korea
imo they are doing fine. Someone else here mentioned Hybe wanted a top girl group in Japan, so they went and tried to poach the 3 most popular members of Izone in Japan, based on fansign and album numbers. They got 2 out of 3. On top of that they got another Japanese member. Twice took about 5 years to really blow up in Japan, they are likely to do so earlier. Everything else for them is a bonus.
On the minus side, Source Music manages them. I still remember their first Japanese promotion. The highlight was a truck with a sign, and I think they might have gone on one music program. That was it. Then there was one promotion where they seemed to promote their dogs more than the members.
Please help support and stream the #2 girl group in Korea.
On the plus side they have Hybe backing and their network. On the minus side, Source Music manages them, the company that used to manage the #2 girl group in Korea.
For the younger girls groups, their market are t(w)een girls, the target market of boy groups. They are not specifically targeting adult males. Females are more loyal and will spend more. Chunga is a good example where the nugu boy group in her ex-company no one has ever heard of is more profitable than her.
Thats why you have cute teen/high teen/sclub 7 concepts, to grab the attention of these t(w)een girls. Its teletubbies but for a slightly older age bracket. T(w)eens will just follow whatever is trendy. So all you gotta do is employ some people to go on Korea social media and mass spam good things about the group on multiple accounts, and also bot Youtube.
All groups had a better non-title track(s)... to a western listener.
All however chose a more Korean general public friendly song for the title track.

LOL thats a showcase?
I wouldn't pay much attention to who gets the loudest cheers at a college concert or an army concert. Male fans are fickle and don't spend much, and will jump ship in 1 or 2 years to the next hot girl.
However, Karina has been voted the most popular idol amongst females.
Looking at current numbers and declining growth for one group and exponential growth for another, Kakao will most likely move most of their marketing budget to Aespa and Karina now.
