Newjeans playlisting was absolute **** at first, Ditto was only added after it had already demolished the charts, Spotify had no choice

Ot: Did anyone try that new OMG Apple Music version ? I thought the bass was lovely

GIDLE literally stomps on both of them right now both in digitals and streaming though? :rip:

I need you girls to join the real world if you’re going to talk about popularity. In terms of units moved from their last eras:

 

1. Aespa

2. IVE

3. NewJeans

4. LE SSERAFIM

5. ITZY

6. (G)-IDLE

7. NMIXX

8. STAYC 

9. Kep1er

10. EVERGLOW

 

For their next eras, IVE and Aespa will do 2M+ physicals, NJ and LSF are about to do 1.5M+ and NMIXX is about to hit 850-900k. (G)-IDLE should be doing some 1.2M.

This ITZY vs aespa debate on which group is fourth behind the current 4th gens trinity; IVE, NEWJEANS & LESSERAFIM :bibliahh:

Well that what is currently happening with Cupid rising from 22 spot on Spotify global  :cm:

It could have definitely helped some songs  like Antifragile 

 

girl... cupid is all over tiktok and i've been listening to it without even knowing it was a kpop song until today... it's just an organic hit and so were newjeans' songs... sometimes u cant just force it

That "Aunty" being way more popular/being way more recognised as a beauty, than that talentless girl from one of the worst group to exist in the whole world :weeps:

Please, Aespa just have an underperformance TT.

They have the 4gen gg best selling album and a successful B Side. They have sold out concerts in Japan without a Japanese release.

 

Itzy have a viral song that have 0 longevity and fraudulent sales. They are touring in theaters like Loona a few months ago :gaycat7:

The theater in question

Mess I always forgot they are 4th gens too

Just now, CrisPop said:

I was talking about their USA dates. Loona didn't do concerts at Asia.

Aespa still have the best selling album for a 4gen GG

Aespa still have the most popular song for a 4gen GG in Korea

Aespa have sold out shows at Japan a few weeks back.

Aespa have the most successful B side for a 4gen GG

 

But they are 6th behind NJ, IVE, Lesserafim, Itzy and G idle according to 3 users.

We need to add Stayc and their third biggest hit Teddy Bear 

STAYC is a perfect example of why global stats also matter cause Teddy Bear is a legit hit domestically, but is doing less than 100K streams daily :skull:

 

This makes me anxious and sad at the same time. Why those companies can keep those numerous flop boy groups we don't even know about their existence when they performed in music shows but when it comes to girl groups an underperformance is like a huge deal and must be dealt with immediately :chick3: I'm starting to think some boy groups exists just to satisfy the higher executives of the companies. They never had a hit but comeback every now and then like it's nothing. Surely they can't keep the electricity and water running. I'm sorry i said that but i'm really having a meltdown right now i don't wanna lose fromis, they are my ult :sosad:

I was just thinking about them the other day when they were brought up in kpopthoughts subreddit. Pledis is a menace towards girl groups.

And so were many songs who were virals and getting more than 1 million streams per day and YET not everyone could get a TTH placement. Cupid is all over tik tok yes but today was their best performing day (just after getting added in the playlist). They are getting a bigger boost bc of the playlist which was my point

Yeah, the girls got huge potential but i never saw any of them on the cover of a fashion magazine or doing any solo photoshoots. What a shitty company tbh :monkey:

Love Dive & Hype Boy are bigger than Next Level in Korea & outside. :bird:

 

Lesserafim & IVE are both bigger in Japan, New Jeans is bigger WW. Anything else?

Under Hybe like NJ and LSFM but still under Plexis. They really got the short end of the stick. So sad because they're such a good group.

Not yet, maybe in a couple of months but not atm.

 

 

LSF and IVE already have a japanese debut.

NJS are the moment WW, glad we agree.

Honestly, I want to see what their excuses will be when Aespa’s full sells over 2M physical. Like we’re in for a smash era :jonny5:
