But didn't the last Treasure EP see a drop from 834k to 600k after the (arguably most popular) members left?

It's still more than The Boyz' latest comeback I think? Treasure did receive a big hit, due to Yedam leaving, however they will pick up from there and build up towards being million sellers in the future. Btw, Haruto has always been the most popular member, but not him now being in a scandal :redface: This group can never catch a break I swear

Was this strategy done before in a Kpop release? Is this a good thing?

NewJennies. Attention, Hype Boy and Hurts MV were released days before the mini album release.

Her styling with the orange and black pigtails is probably the campiest thing I have ever seen in Kpop :msmarvel: She was truly serving anime girl! To bad bad she barely had screen time in the MV though, like why would they style her this perfect just for them to barely show her and let it go to waste like that :sad:

If I didn't stay on brand with having Lee Know as my avi, this would've been my avi: :jonny6:

Spoiler

The Adios demo is a demo for a reason, which means the song wasn't finished and was unpolished. If they were to release the version where she sings the pre-chorus, then it would've of course sounded better. But she didn't even sound bad to begin with

I need Juyeon to pull a Eunwoo, open a solo IG, pivot to solo gigs, acting and influencing, and secure his life vest for when the ship sinks for good :ninja:

Honestly most (if not entirety) of that group is FILLED with gorgeous gorgeous boys and we all know how Korea goes crazy for visuals, so i won’t be wrong to think there can be multiple Eunwoos from that group. They need some strategic decisions and proper push in the Korean media. 
 

I mean that group has Juyeon, Eric, Hyunjae, Sangyeon, Younghoon, New, Jacob :WAP:And of course there is that homosexual king Kevin :heart:

I would say The Boyz are the #6 biggest 4th Gen boy group. They had a ton of hype from Kingdom but seem stagnant with their album sales. I would put Treasure above them due to potential especially coming from YG. They can get better promotions if the company pushes them harder.

 

I think the issue for both groups is that they both have so many members so it's hard for casual people to get familar with them. Not surprising that both Super Junior and Seventeen do well in variety. That's where large groups can excel because you can make more interesting content with more people. And if you make interesting content, easier for people to get engaged with your group. The Going Seventeen series seemed to be a game changer for the group. 
 

GOING SEVENTEEN is literally one of the best contents to ever come out of any boygroups and it showcases Seventeen’s group dynamics as well as their individual charms so well, outside of their talent of course. That’s one of the main reasons they’ve been able to constantly grow their fanbase over the years despite being such a large group, as the series aims to utilize their size into making something entertaining, informative as well as engaging. 

 

i think Treasure also had a show like that, didn’t they? Maybe it wasn’t as engaging or authentic personality-wise. 
 

i think what sets Going Seventeen apart from other series is that Seventeen has undeniable variety characters like Hoshi, Seungkwan and DK (no explanation needed as to why they’re so good) and the other members are also spontaneous contributors to the purpose of each episode. So I think what you said is true, large groups needs to figure out how to utilize their size into something fruitful and rewarding for the fans, and that’s how they can keep growing :clap3:

Heize's new song charting at #2 on Genie and #84 on Melon and n/A on flo.:dies: why do Koreans only listen to her on one platform

GoSe is truly what made me fall in love with SVT. Truly a work of art every week! Providing hilarity, chaos, creativity and production (!) week after week :heart: The GoSe producers and the boys deserve all the praise and acclaim they always get for the show

I agree, and gay Toronto icon Kevin has proven to be a hustler :gaycat5: it’s a shame IST is beyond useless!

 

Y’all remember when this thread was dragging IVE for being over? :lmao: Not them pulling 49M digital points this week and the title isn’t even out for five more days.

so Wonyoung really is like Jennie and any dumb "scandals" will never affect her and her group :lmao:

I honestly would say they’re the new TWICE. Early vocal scandal, style stays consistent throughout their first few eras, no real change of concept, etc.

 

We’ll see if Aespa or BaeMon end up being the next BlackPink.

Nope, cause I don’t care enough to, also didn’t Jisoo releasing at 1pm KST instead of the normal time affect things. This isn’t even about NewJeans, you mentioned IVE in your original tweet, funny how you’re now switching directions to a group that wasn’t even in the conversation

 

just say you spoke to soon on Jisoo and now you have egg on your face lol

Melon TOP100 14:00 ULs
