do album sales even matter anymore when these groups have 20 versions (thank u exo) and are selling their albums for $5?

 

touring is the better determinant of their fandom power and i don't think any one of the current can have a tour as successful as twice or bp in the future

Touring always has been a better indicator of fandom power I guess.

it’s actually quite weird twice didn’t reach 1M before 

i can see some groups coming close and not reaching it but next year 1M sales will be regular 

I think that’s because they never waited too long before releasing another album like BP or any other group so there wasn’t that element of building hype. Those girlies have been coming back every 6 months since 2015

IVE will def sell 1 million albums from a comeback in the future, they have just sold 600k. RV somehow grew fanbase this cb and sold almost 700K, considering they are doing trilogy again this year, one of their next albums could potential sell more than 1 million but we’ll see.

BP def selling 2 millions though

I think IVE is too new for that but we’ll see.

Not a midzy by any chance but its 2022, and itzy was never presented as a vocal based group so I don't see why sheeps are always dragging them for that, like at least when they perform they are good at it and not sounding absolutely different from their studio vocals in a bad way. One thing about itzy, you will never fall asleep watching them perform, can't say the same about a lot of so called superior talented groups 

nmixx best and most talented jypig gg, they'll stomp on everyone when they get a nice song (next comeback)

I hate the blonde on NingNing it washes her so much

 

The auburn or whatever that was she had during Savage and DCT is literally HER color, she should go back to that and never change it again

 

I don't use aespa like that but I really like NingNing, and I feel like her and Giselle make a really iconic bad ***** duo love their vibe 

A NingNing/Giselle subunit would eat internationally with the right material.

 

aespa19 is coming.

They need to worry about Korea remembering they exist first.

 

IVE and LE SSERAFIM are eating them up I fear.

 

It seems like every company has their strengths and weaknesses when it comes to their training programs.

SM last two GGs are such weak performers compare to their direct competitors, but they excel at what we expect from them. 
 

Nmixx is such a huge improvement from Twice and Itzy in the vocal department. 

 

Lia seems like she should be one of the most talented idols who should excel at singing, since she was also trained at SM, dancing and performing but she excels at neither 

 

 

 

 

Loona and Eunji ate the girls up tonight on Queendom.

The comments saying get Giselle to leave instead  but wow imagine they pull a Red Velvet and add a member a bit after debut

 

 

 

IVE are truly the daughters of SISTAR.

this is also why kicking Liability out shouldn’t be a problem, her below avarage vocals doesn’t really add much to the group 

 

OT:

 

 

hyoyonce knowles lead

Liability 

Anyways I like Lia's singing so I don't really mind her lol 

The nerve to come for Lia when she’s a in group with 4 main dancers and dan keep up with hard choreographies can’t say the same for these these called main dancers and good performers anyway

yeah she has the best tone in the group, i just like to poke fun at ha 

Happy for Loona/Eunji getting #1 in dance

 

but Hyolyn/Minyoung should have gotten #1 in vocal, it was the only unit that didn't have a loud ass backtrack or voice cracks 

 

Eunha getting #1 for VIVIZ is a kii  she's cute tho, we love her

Haven't you guys been kpop fans for years? It is directly impossible for aespa to debut a new member since SM already has a gg with 5 members which is RV. Companies do not have multiple bgs or ggs with the same amount of members, since it would make it harder for the public to differentiate them.

Like Yeri was added to RV later because of Sulli leaving f(x), since RV and f(x) would've both have had 4 members after Sulli departure. RV had just debuted and weren't established yet compared to f(x), so it made sense for SM to add Yeri to the group. 

But I thought everyone knew that yeri would be added, SM never stated that Aespa would be 5 yeri came later because she was really young 

lbr yeti only debuted to lower the age average which angelic hagrene highly brought up

 

i dont see any significant benefit for aespa to add new member
