- Butter

- Permission To Dance

- My Universe

 

are all global hits as well tbf. 
 

Once BP release an English single it will become a mainstream hit as well. It’s almost impossible for Kpop acts to snatch a genuine hit in the West with their native language sadly.

They booking stadiums because they can actually sell them out unlike Red Velvets flop ass still booking 2k theaters.

Red Velvet didn't have any difficulties selling out their dates at KSPO Dome in Korea.

 

It's okay though, I can see why you and others are desperately clinging on to these stadium bookings for your lives.

 

With 3x flopped singles in a row and the latest album allegedly shipping 1.7M but not even achieving 800k sales on Hanteo after over a month of sales, I'm guessing it's easier for you to fixate on this one metric and block out everything else.

still obsessed with I AM, Blue Blood and Lips

IVE did that

Cupid at #61 with just streaming points. We need radio to get on board too

Why is a live band the best thing that even happened to MANIAC Tour?

 

 

 

I hope their next tour have one too

My friend has the same theory as you. He believes the rachalog units are the upcoming album's units. And he said he thinks they will drop the trailer only after Lee Know and Changbin's vlog is out.  

 

I didn't take him serious because he's great at creating fanfics for SKZ eras, but even you thought the same, maybe I should considerate 

 

A Bang Chan, Hyunjin and Han unit song would kill me, probably 

Somebody needs to separate VocalRacha though  I know they can’t thrive without each other, but they need to change it up, cause they have been paired up with each other in all of their unit songs.
 

They are also sadly the most overlooked members compared to the other 6, so they need to do something and stand out more in general, otherwise the popularity gap will keep increasing between them and the rest.

 

Btw they served here:

TWICE and Red Velvet are not on the same level at all, give it up

My original post was not about Red Velvet, so direct your concerns about the comparison to the people quoting me with "but Red Velvet!!"

Time to drop the Seungmin/Han's rock song and Lee Know/I.N's collaboration they mentioned last year on 2 Kids Room 

 

Seungmin at least has 2 OSTs in 2 big dramas and It ends up engaging the fandom to support him too, but I.N is the only member without any kind of promotion outside groups' activities and It kinda bothers me.

I don't follow TXT's performances at all, but I think some of their songs would sound amazing with a live band such as Lovesong, Dear Sputnik, L=L, Opening Sequence, GBGB...

Jennie looks so gorgeous here

Idc about them but I want them to do well just because they are opening a lot of doors to other kpop acts. Way more than BTS did

King is forgiven for already looking perfect in the other 21 hours of the day

 

But It was funny when Milli met SKZ personally backstage and when she talked about Hyunjin was to say he was very sweaty 

 

[cloudbusting]

Red Velvet still get domestic hits (minus Birthday tanking but that’s one since 2019 compared to multiple) and are now million sellers

 

SM has historically underestimated them time and time again - we saw they started shifting albums as soon as SM actually restocked and printed enough. anyone claiming that they’re booking small venues internationally because they can’t sell anything else is just talking out of their ass at this point. reveluvs have been complaining about their mismanagement for years

I agree with whoever said Yujin would have been better in Lesserafim. She would be perfect over Sakura. 

Yunjin, Yujin, Chaewon, Kazuha and Sakura wouldve been such a KILLER lineup. Let Eunchae wait it out a few years more.
