Quote from bartkun

you know what the vibe of this group is for now?

If I remember well HYBE was creating some trainee group in the past, it was boy group

and when Knetz started posting about them the general opinion was "are they even Korean? they don't look Korean"

so the hope here is that Teddy was smart enough and that just one more member is a foreigner

Ella is Korean, German-American

and Bailey is Korean-American

because if he creates the whole Baemon situation on his own it means his mind was already corrupted by YG's ideas or that he was watching MNet survival shows with similar ideas to foreign fans, like in Girls Planet when they were cells then maybe Teddy was ok ok Mnet chingu so we will have 3K+3C+3J amazing xD

and after all at the end of the day it's interesting that this group got a buzz now, when flippin I-LAND 2 with Teddy as producer will start broadcast in April xD

Koreans love Korean girls even if the girls are half-breed or have always lived abroad. Look at Rose, Somi, Daniel, Jennie, they are like that and still like them. Moreover, there are many Korean members, from Moon Seoyoon who is very crazy because she is the granddaughter of the Samsung owner, Chloe who is the favorite of YG trainees

Yes, Korea is eating their debut, expensive vibes, and a unique aura that makes us feel at home but it's mysterious if TBL doesn't mess it all up

Quote from Panpriyah-lice

Who ?

No

moon seoyoon

the girl is uljang popular on instagram knet is crazy about her. Samsung owner's granddaughter isn't just a rich vibe. he is practical, indeed old money

Quote from TheBotter

TT lasted like 2+ years on the top 100 of Billboard though.

Is that true? I was surprised TT was that long because FS only lasted 36 weeks

but I actually read that Fs was twice the longest charting song of this decade. maybe I'm wrong. Thank you for the information

Quote from sveznalica

I mean RV themselves said they have some power in sm and no need for trucks and emails. Will that result in more tours in the future or not, will they stay in sm or not I don't know but I hope so. I think there is more time for them but either way I still don't think their selling power is on twice and bp level as of right now.

SM might very well do an american promotion for rv if they want to and if rv wants to. and if they don't do that it means they don't want to do all that. look at aespa and nct how SM promotes them at American events and comes to various festivals even if line 88 is rising

or prade in london they could do that but choose not to

Quote from Selynn

So who is to blame for this? SM. they never promoted Red Velvet properly, couldn't even organize their tour last year properly. Red Velvet is a Godtier group in my opinion. The group was haunted by bad luck, and they were going to tour abroad in 2019, when they were releasing hits like Psycho. But it was cancelled. Now it's too late. Even though the US label said they wanted Red Velvet, an company refused. It's clear who blocked Red Velvet. Red Velvet was never meant to be very successful, least of all by their own company. Jyp and Yg are definitely much better at promoting globally.

You must be kidding me if you think YG is good at global promotions. YG is practically stupid with that. the reason why blackpink was never in the american awards was because of YG's stupidity and the reason blackpink came because they were invited and won. YG is too arrogant to bring in blackpink just for guest stars. They became guests because they were invited. YG never promoted them. If DDD didn't explode globally, Blackpink wouldn't be promoted anywhere. SM is much better for global look what they are doing at aespa only SM is not doing the same promotion for rv

Quote from Rarami

Who said they'll fail? I'm betting if theyll be the biggest tour

There is aespa,lsf,I've,itzy. Like you said they have hybe and the biggest fandom for anew group

Quote from TheBotter

I think TT is still their biggest in Japan.

in terms of peaks the TT is higher but in terms of stable the FS is much more impressive

I have a feeling that the chaebol kid will be the IT girl. he is already popular in Korea, not only does he have a rich vibe, he is indeed rich, the grandson of a Samsung owner. Somehow Ahyeon will be more like Rose who is popular but not an It Girl and Ella like Lisa is popular globally but not in Korea

Twice biggest hit Korea are Cheer up

Twice biggest hit western are The feel

Twice biggest hit Japan are Feel special

Twice biggest hit at my head are I can't stop me

Quote from Rarami

Wanna bet akorns?

You have to be realistic that NJ will not fail their tour, this is not a blind thing. The songs are hype and the members are well known. Maybe NJ won't make a record for their concert but they will succeed. That's not a troll, that's realistic

Quote from ISaidISaid

Tur adalah salah satu hal yang membutuhkan waktu untuk dibangun.

Itu sebabnya Anda tidak akan pernah bisa mengklaim grup-grup baru ini benar-benar populer. Saat ini mereka hanya sekedar iseng saja.

but blackpink in just 3 years became the biggest gg kpop tour if i remember. and twice set records as the highest-grossing tour for an overseas group within 3 years of their debut in Japan.

I don't see this among gen4. Their record is always on gen4 only like that! when a group is big like bp, twice don't forget exo in its short life became the fastest group that sold well and bts became the wall.

gen4 ended last year now gen5 they are getting some time and still nothing impressive globally

Quote from atropos

Saya akan melakukan tur sebelum nj jadi saya tidak mengerti bagaimana mereka mencoba mengejar ketinggalan dalam hal ini. Kalau harus membandingkan sebaiknya kita bandingkan dengan aespa dan itzy yang sudah tur.

not even in a thousand years will nj fail the tour. Their fandom is practically huge for a new group, they have the public behind them and they are also under hybe and in a way they are like BTS' little brother. there is no way they will lose in the gen4 gg tour

Quote from randkpopstan

Several sections closed and half of the tickets are left, I'm shocked and appalled to see this tbh, they are one of the biggest 4th gen groups with hit after hit after hit, at least until they recent era so it shouldn't be hard to sell this small arena in one of the most populated cities on the planet and one of regions that consume kpop the most outside asia.

What's going on you guys? Maybe all those 100k unique listeners hits on a dying korean apps don't mean success on the big year of 2024? Shocking!

Most of the public doesn't even know ive at maxiko. they obviously know wonyoung/yujin but not ive. of course they are also sold out in many ASEAN countries which even know Ive which is popular. yeah and it takes a lot of time for tickets to be sold until they have to be cancelled, right? especially Maxiko country where kpop is not common

Blacklabel maybe? Somi successful at that agensi

Quote from desdesdes

Honestly idk what the heck Yuehua did to their groups.

Like.. they messed yena up

Everglow are almost abandoned

Then there are a whole another issue with WJSN back then

Tempest also nowhere to be found rn, which actually sad since on their early days, I saw many of their updates often.

Honestly, Yena is also involved in the damage to her career. I mean, the idea of making a title with the word hate is clearly wrong and stupider for the agency to allow it. the hell

Quote from patrik-k

I think the "problem" with this is probably mostly the trend among the kpop community, not the broader korean public. I mean, how many 40-50 years old know who the members in NJ or Aespa are?

the problem is they don't accept their bias rating below. Simple

Quote from ThePhantomThief

And fucking seriously, Wonyoung has lower brand ranking and reputation than Wendy?

kek

Quote from BlackpinkHouse

These Brand Reputation Rankings are utterly irrelevant lol. Just like PAKs, it's based on one rando's sus methodology. Fun to argue about and use to attack others or defend your faves but in reality, they are all meaningless.

Just use common sense folks. In terms of Kpop GGs, it's pretty much Jennie, Wonyoung, and Karina in Korea right now. You could throw a dozen names in the second tier (Minji, Haerin, Yujin, Chaewon, Winter, Jisoo, Rose, Arin, Irene, Hwasa, etc) and they could all be right. But first tier is set in stone right now.

Wild card is actually Somi, her popularity is sneaky huge there, she gets all the brand recognition that 99 percent of other GG idols can only dream about.

You must be delusional if you think Karina and Wony are bigger than Jisoo and rose

Quote from ThePhantomThief

Sekali lagi saya ulangi:

“Dari sudut pandang ilmiah, daftar berdasarkan data seperti ini, seperti halnya eksperimen atau metodologi yang baik, harus mudah direplikasi dan diulangi oleh orang lain. Kumpulan data khusus ini, dilakukan oleh satu orang yang bias (meskipun ada banyak masalah lain yang bermasalah) ), berdasarkan metodologi rahasia... tidak dapat ditiru. Itu saja sudah merupakan tanda bahaya."

Cara dia mengumpulkan data, cara dia memprosesnya, formula dan metodologinya TIDAK transparan. Tidak dapat diulang. Tidak terbuka untuk pengawasan yang tepat. Hal ini membuatnya ragu. Dan ketika orang itu sendiri telah secara terbuka mengakui bias dan pernah ketahuan memanipulasi data di masa lalu (walaupun tidak ada kaitannya dengan hal INI), tidak masuk akal untuk mempercayai hal ini atau menganggapnya serius dan orang-orang mempercayainya.

like most fans say brand reputation is biased because only they know the results even though we can easily see it from the results they write in detail

they are connected to gallup sake pete even naver itself always releases it. But of course you can't completely believe in brand reputation but where does our courage to think they are biased come from when Naver itself believes in that and even gallups are connected from that

various agencies even believe that. and moreover, many advertisements and endorsements rely on it. So naive if we doubt everything

better bombayah to me

Quote from ThePhantomThief

I'm not saying it's cheating per se, but if the methodology is not transparent, data collection is dubious, has glaring discrepancies month to month (eg Taeyeon appearing high almost every month but disappearing from the list the month she release INVU) and the fact that the CEO has been sprung biasing against idols openly, I dare say it can't really be taken as gospel or seriously.

Hell, Jennie is my all time alt bias, I should be happy she tops the list, but the list is basically flawed.

Coming from a scientific point of view, data driven lists like this, like any good experiment or methodology, should be easily replicated and repeated by others. This particular data set, done by one biased man (with a raft of other problematic issues notwithstanding), on a secretive methodology... cannot be replicated. That alone is a red flag.

They are actually really open to every rank, always showing values and straightening out, even for negative and positive results, even Jennie herself has had a very low level of brand reputation.

because they are always about hot topics/trends, not popularity. Because it's impossible in any world for NewJeans members to be more popular in Korea than Jennie. it's always just about trends
