If it was so easy to sell 1 million + of 2 single albums in a short period of time, nobody would do EP or full album

This is way more effective than any alleged Hybe payola in japan

Newjeans have 7 songs in japan billbord hot 100 and are among the most streamed artist in japan Aespa song didn't even enter japan spotify top 200 and apple music top 100 yet. NJ japan promotion was highly effective and they gained a lot of popularity in japan. Selling 50k, 100K or 200K physical copies of a single is nothing compared to being one of the most listened artist in japan like NJ are currently

Their full album will probably sell a lot more that those singles and it makes way more sense to compare How Sweet sales with OMG sales than with Get up

There is a lot of acting in this MV and Haerin is not really the best to show emotion This MV concept was not for her

Hanni and Danni "Hold it down" in september then the group main single in october and the album in november 240627 Hold It Down 4K Fancam (Danielle & Hanni) at Tokyo Dome [NewJeans Bunnies Camp 2024 Day II] (youtube.com)

Seems like it's the Korean version of the song?

Yes, sure their spotify streaming numbers are very similar

Nothing special, Licorice on their last album was a far more enjoyable fun song

Difficult to compare with NJ, Japan debut strategy are so different.

NJ have 7 songs in japan billboard top 100 this week and are by far the most streamed gg in Japan. People saying NJ are not popular in Japan are delusional.

Aespa are also quite popular in Japan and will do good with their Japan debut.

Impact in Japan is impressive too. Vaundy song was out of top 200 before Minji cover. NJ streaming performance in SK and Japan cannot be questioned

She did so good . She has such a good personnality and care so much about other members and NJ fans. Everybody seems happy around her.

Her vocals are not the strongest but she works hard and make such a good use or her abilities. She is so passionate.

Minji power IMG_20240701_115410.jpg

Probably as fake as others big labels artist around the world

Huge congrats to NJ for being currently the most listened kpop gg on spotify even with the fake success to genuine success streams reduction

Be the third most streamed artist on spotify Japan with more than 1.1 million daily streams (Filtered streams of only the NJ songs in top 200) + Having 9 songs in apple music top 100 and do well on others streaming platform (6 songs in line top 100) is a good indication that NJ is very popular in japan. Haters/Troll have decided than all metrics where NJ perform well are not relevant and are looking only at single song performance to assess an artist popularity

Still a long way to go for a top 10 in daily chart. Will be interesting to see if it climbs when NJ will start to perform the song in SK

Spotify is not popular in SK but still funny to see those songs charting so high.

Minji had impact to

Wonderful performance Incredible to see all the love NJ are receiving from japan. They seems so happy promoting there.

Streams in spotify charts are filtered streams and it's obviously impressive to be among the most streamed artist in japan

Newjeans are doing really great streaming numbers in japan, it's not possible to deny it. They have 11 songs in spotify top 200 and the sum of those is already more than 1 million daily streams. Taking into account others songs that are not in top 200 and others streaming platforms where they chart high to, their total daily is probably really big and among the best in Japan.

If you look only at Supernatural, it's not impressive but if you take into account all their songs, they are among the most listened artist in japan right now
