They are also killing it on Spotify, where Japan makes up less of the market. For a lot of groups all their popularity is confined to Korea. IVE is the closest thing to a global gg in the 4th gen. (If you don't count KDA that is)

They aren't there yet.. they just show potential.

 

The way some of you discount aespa is weird :skull: 

 

Youtube:

 

Next Level MV - 223M

Next Level Audio - 100M

Black Mamba - 217M

The way yall are acting like IVE has 500M spotify plays, 1B youtube views, Top 5 album on BB200, etc. is so :deadbanana4:

Japan is the 2nd biggest market in the world even twice the biggest GG in japan didn’t crack the top 10 on AM global charts but suddenly its not impressive because IVE can actually chart in japan and Apple Music global top 10 at the same time. 
IVE charted on Spotify Australia and entered on BB Canada so yeah they got the global appeal if it was that easy aespa would have entered too :celestial4:

In no way was I saying that it's not impressive. I was just wondering why do dives use that Apple Music stat to show that they're global when that stat is only possible due to being in Asian countries top 10 which is not indicative of global popularity. It's like claiming that BTS is popular among the US GP just because they have multiple HOT 100 #1s but the reality is that it is only possible due to fan-driven sales instead and are not indicative of GP popularity. 

 

If they charted there then use that stat, not Apple Music Global.

The way this thread celebrates charting at #199 in Greece screaming "GloBAl!!@#!" and discounts "local" slayage is so ABSURD :deadbanana2:

I was going off of Spotify peaks by country - IVE has had multiple top 10 entries in several countries outside of Korea. I think it's a better indication of overseas popularity than Youtube views which tend to be driven by Kpop fandoms over time.

Garam really does give me Wonyoung x Jennie vibes, she really needs to book a luxury deal or something & Korea will forgive ha

She & Kazuha are the main slayers of the group

Omg yes I was shocked when I heard Wonyoung’s English lol, she sounds like a California girl.
I had to google her if she grew up in the US but found out she only had English tutoring at school and that’s it :rip: I guess her growing up in a neighborhood with American expats made some difference?

Neither does aespa though….
And I don’t think anybody is discounting aespa when they’re talking about IVE having a bright future and an immense possibility of being huge :rip: 

as I said before, there is a room for multiple 4th gen ggs to smash at the same time. And praising IVE’s success and the potential to truly be huge should not be met with angry replies with aespa comparisons and numbers.
 

we’re finally seeing new girlgroups start to smash and stand on their own outside of the 3rd gen giants’ shadow like Blackpink and Twice…it’s just so exciting right now and I just wish people were enjoying the ride instead of being mad at other group’s success.

Kep1er was nice visually but the song choice was a bit too ambitious. Good thing mnet edits the performances before airing them cause the vocals were kinda rough

 

Spoiler

I'm so convinced more than half of Kep1er performance was purely backing track :deadbanana4:

I mean when you compare their stage vocal to WJSN, Hyolyn and Brave Girls which had a lot of up and down moments

And that last Jessica part at the end with Hikaru, Bahi and Xiaoting were interesting :rip:

Which last part? Are we watching the same performance because the one I watched had them



sounding fine?

 

Chaheyun sounded messy and strained throughout. Dayola sounded perfect :heart2:

I mean is anyone else doing it? IVE charted within the Spotify top 50. Literally the second girl group to do so and have been getting 1.2M streams everyday since that’s crazy huge. Top 5 in alot of SEA markets its definitely a big deal and this is only their first comeback. Aespa ain’t doing it as of yet, Wa Da Da also seems to be clearing Aespa’s global stats too.

A definite comeback schedule for girl group BLACK PINK has not been released yet.

On the 27th, BLACKPINK's agency, YG, told Sports Trend, "Blackpink's comeback schedule has not been decided yet."

The agency also said, "As for the comeback in June, many people are only speculating that way, but it has not been officially announced." “However, it is true that we are preparing for a comeback. When a detailed schedule comes out next time, I will tell you the official data.”

:bibliahh:
