Windy Day Posted June 25, 2022 Share Posted June 25, 2022 2 minutes ago, Young Volcanoes said: Maybe it's because they were always marketed as groups and didn't have any opportunities to show their potential as soloists? They literally opened their personal instagram accounts this year after more than half a decade since debut. Not to mention Jungkook's first song is a COLLAB with Charlie Puth of all people and Nayeon got a bunch of Twice demos... In Charlie Puth's defense, he's very very popular in Korea so Jungkook doing a collab with him was a VERY safe move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And she did get a worldwide hit! No one was expecting a PAK, but not even in the top 50? The uls are not even high . But maybe it’s bc it’s the weekend It’s 39 on melon daily charts. It was a Friday release. Alcohol free was released on Wednesday, literally unless you’re IU, BTS or BP Friday releases don’t do well. The hits songs will rise on the weekends will the new songs lose ULS, maybe you should wait on Monday. 7 minutes ago, bocelli said: No shade but I think its kinda crazy how BTS and TWICE are like in the TOP5 biggest kpop groups ever yet none of the members have any solo power...I wonder how this can be? When your whole brand is marketed as OT9 and OT7 it’s pretty hard to do well as a soloist. I think since y’all are way too used to the BP‘s strategy you guys keep acting these idols are irrelevant, when they have no time to promote individually.

He’s the only one with hits Suga doesn't have a single solo hit. All he's doing is attaching his name to more popular or more talented artists than him. People don't care if it's (Prod. SUGA), they only see and hear IU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it’s not like they release a song per year. Edited June 25, 2022 by Dialamba Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe so but the song is very mediocre (the video is cute though). Plus Jungkook lost a lot of fans after revamping his look if I'm not mistaken, then BTS lost fans with their new music and akgaes will obviously not stream the song. Still, I think it'll rise in the following days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Korea, Psy and IU, so that doesnt say much about his solo power. 6 minutes ago, Aram said: I You think about it, YG groups always have at least one member who is or were actually succesful as solo. Gdragon Taeyang CL Bom Mino Bobby All Blackpink members I don't know much about treasure tho Yes and look at the biggest groups from other company: Wonder Girls - Sunmi EXO - Baekhyun Mamamoo - Hwasa Red Velvet - dont follow up on them but I remember reading Joy has Top10 hits??? SNSD - Taeyeon Shinee - Taemin Its just BTS and TWICE from the biggest groups Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Windy Day Posted June 25, 2022 Share Posted June 25, 2022 Honestly, we need to debunk the (Prod. SUGA) propaganda. Suran and Changmo both had other hits before and after their song with Suga. Lee Sora is very respected in Korea, critically acclaimed and generally more known than Suga. Then the rest is Heize, IU and Psy who are all digimons... I would like to see him smash with a solo song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of the groups vocally work great in group but solo you can hear their flaws and how a few seconds in a song isn’t the same as having a whole solo song or album. Personally I can listen to a lot of SM female vocals for hours because of how beautiful they sound but if I try and listen to female groups in the big 4 outside of SM. They don’t sound as pretty and pleasing to the ear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

K$Ellie Posted June 25, 2022 Share Posted June 25, 2022 Pop grew after two listens but they should have started doing solos and units in 2019 when they were still popular, if they can't score a hit as a group anymore then I don't see any of the members doing it solo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NMIXX is from JYP they will be successful no matter what. A dark horse would be Stayc or Billlie but they’re still behind these groups.
