And to think they let Poppy go under the radar with Nice promo it would have smashed HARD. It has better stats than BM and Stereotype despite being a b-side.

they actually performed poppy a few times which helped it to chart but yeah  

them not having the same exposure as groups from big companies just makes things harder

And do more Japanese promo in general! Like it's fine that S&M are trynna push aespa in America etc., but they also need to push them in Japan aka the 2nd  biggest music market in the world, where they have a way bigger chance to succeed. SM needs to start prioritize Japan more like they did in their early days, cause America isn't really working for them.

 

I hope SM doesn't make aespa wait for 7 years to debut in Japan, similar to what happened with NCT Dream, who despite debuting in 2016, only debuted in Japan this year

 

 

Riize are already getting a japanese debut next month meanwhile aespa...

enlisting early isn’t such a bad idea tbh, (assuming that they will comeback and tour in 2025) by the time they finish group activities, all members will be in their early 30s– which is not that old

poor jin though  but he will get discharged earlier than the rest iirc, no?

Here comes the SM Sheep hating on ITZY, yet again 

 

[smates]

I can't believe it's been a year since Jin enlisted, all the members will be back before their 12th anniversary in 2025  , and Jungkook will only be 28 when he returns

Yeah, HYBE can easily arrange a joint stadium tour for the 3 youngest.

Actually, there is a rumour among korean fans that HYBE asked Jungkook to stay as a soloists. He has enough time that he can promote solo for 2 years, then have a group reunion/tour for another 2 years before enlistment.

He apparently rejected them, they are prioritising the group reunion over everything else

Anyways, HYBE will do good regardless and still be the top company even without BTS, since they have NewJeans, SVT, TXT, ENHYPEN and LE SSERAFIM all being in that company + multiple new groups debuting next year as well

IM GOING TO FIND MY HEAAAART

 

 

(also sort of unrelated but why do sones act like tiffany can't sing?)

Tiffany's ad-libs and screaming over Sooyoung at the bridge She also sang the "IM GOING TO FIND MY HEAAAART" pre-chorus  the best among everyone  Her parts are always my favorite

Now sweetie I like aespa as well, but let's not act like this isn't an ITZY cosplay:

[HausOfEnzo]

It seems like ITZY's latest teasers are inspired by aespa. I wish them all the best. I really like these girls.

Every time a GG does GC you got sheep saying they are inspired by aespa but if you say the same thing about aespa they get pissed.  Freaks
