I remember something about a nugu boy group that got two of their members acting together in a BL and suddenly their music started going up lmao so yeah sometimes it works 

Not two members of the same group, but two idols of two separate groups. 
DKZ’s rapper Jaechan was in Semantic Error along with KNK member Seoham.

DKZ used to be called Dongkiz previously and were absolutely nugu. This bop deserved better.

 

but once the BL did well, this comeback did really well too and the group went on to sell 200k albums 


Seoham’s group though, KNK, didn’t get the chance to capitalize off the BL’s success because Seoham left the group before it’s release and later went to the military, and also they didn’t have a comeback. 
this gem is still on repeat to this day


so yeah acting on BL does wonders for nugu groups, although I wanna see members of big bgs do them too :gaycat6:

Then you have your answer why NCT is not in it :cm: because Enhypen and TXT are making it through China's album downloads

But NCT have a big fanbase and their music are available on China streaming platforms

no, there was actually a group where two of their members starred in a BL. i should know, i used to be a staple of the BL thread lol. the group is called Omega X. but Jaechan is probably the most successful example of an idol that starred in a K-BL since his group actually got to win a music show after starring in GODmantic Error.

i am still gutted that the TV remake of Bungee Jumping of Their Own got cancelled. NCT's Jaehyun was casted as the lead already. :mad:

If you talk about IFPI Sales Chart

 

#6. Enhypen - Manifesto: Day 1 | Gaon sales: 1.5M

#7. Born Pink | Gaon sales: 2.5M

#8. TXT - minisode 2 | Gaon sales: 1.8M

 

Maybe it's HYBE who should be investigated for reporting fake sales instead :cm:

Girl the IFPI report is not just about sales from Korea alone so I don't get why did you put Gaon/Circle sales to compare :redface:

Yes but that doesn't mean all of the overseas sales counted to Circle.

Gaon counts all shipments as reported by the label

 

So some Blonks accusing SM of "fake sales" because Gaon numbers are not matching up IFPI reports, and now that I'm pointing out the difference between BP and TxT & Enhypen, several new "theories" are being made in this thread :redface:

 

Theory 1: "IFPI counted China digital downloads"

Born Pink sold 900k digital downloads in China => which means Enhypen must sell more than 1.5M downloads to place higher on IFPI? :rip: 

 

Theory 2: "Not all sales counted to Circle"

So there's no reason for numbers on Circle and IFPI to match up => case closed

 

Like pick a struggle

IFPI uses actual sales (Hanteo) rather than shipments (Gaon). For some reason there is always a massive gap between Hanteo and Gaon for SM artists while for other artists like SVT is minimal :cm:

The way you just make up shameless lies :deadbanana: :deadbanana:

 

BTS Proof: Hanteo 3M - Gaon 3.4M => 13% dif

17 Face The Sun: Hanteo 2.5M - Gaon 2.8M => 12% dif 

NCT 2 Baddies: Hanteo 1.8M - Gaon 1.8M => 0% dif

Born Pink: Hanteo 1.6M - Gaon 2.5M => 56% dif

Aespa Girls: Hanteo 1.4M - Gaon 1.8M => 28% dif

IVE After Like: Hanteo 1.4M - Gaon 1.65M => 18% dif

TWICE Between 1&2: Hanteo 600k - Gaon 1.1M => 83% dif

ITZY Checkmate: Hanteo 690k - Gaon 1M => 45% dif

RV FMR: Hanteo 597k - Gaon 694k => 16% dif

So... did Lisa make Taeyang flop or did he flop on his own? :celestial5:

It’s his worst single. I can’t believe I’m saying this but Lisa’s verse is the only redeeming part. He ****** up so hard :deadbanana4:

Maybe its time for a WJSN The Black comeback until Dawon finds an agency, I rather take that than almost a whole year without a comeback :redface:Starship might as well put those fresh Ive coins to use since its just the beginning of their slayage.

This is the most YG-esque sound that YG groups have had since 2016

Dont feel like doing math but I’m pretty sure the 83% for twice is incorrect :toofunny2: it should be closer to 50%
