Not the first day sales (still counting), already at number 5 

 

Six more days with lucky draw promotion, fansigns and more, I can see they pass aespa

You have posted like 10 times since WTMW's release (which was an hour ago), don't play dumb  

Users like them who creep around waiting for groups they dislike to release so they can spam hate weird me out the most in this thread. Like did you have May 2nd on your calendar just for this? @Born to Run

Aespa has been so horribly managed I’m not sure how people think dragging them makes them edgy. Like, there wasn’t even any hyping from SM over this release. Y’all acting like they’ve been doing nonstop promo the past year or something  they’ve been MIA for a year and only showed up for some year end performances

Where's that user who said shavedspa has more influence and starpower than IVE in korea and that he is telling the truth because he is living in korea I guess it's just myth or they just have no influence over melon users because how come those bulk buy carried boy groups can chart on top 100 melon don't they have enough k-fandom? 

and that user also called them FADS, implying that After Like was somehow a flop and less successful than Love Dive like the jokes write themselves

IVE released after a massive hit, aespa released after a massive bomb with one year hiatus  First hour/day debut is all about hype

i get that but the lack of teasers isn’t really an excuse

they should’ve been able to enter top 100 at least

mte, an EP&TBW or Fire in the Belly b-side stage would have been such a serve 

anyways i’m sure spicy will do much better + the album sales are great

plus they have two of the most popular female idols in korea currently

Eve sweetie i'm so sorry 

Finally Welcome to My World was not some pots and pans experimental music like Girls thank goodness.

 

Well it's too soon to tell if this is a smash or flop considering the pre-release have almost zero hype and SM truly fumbled Aespa promo and marketing.

Now, who are you? I've been posting MelOn datas in this thread since 2019.

 

It's always the cliquey sheepish losers who can't take a laugh or tell the difference between hate and facts.

I don't know If you guys have seen, but Stays found out they've been promoting/teasing 5-Star for OVER A YEAR. 

 

I wonder If 5-Star was the album supposed to follow Oddinary and they had to switch to release Maxident, because they wouldn't be able to promote a full album within the touring schedules. But, in my opinion, It was always clear they didn't like Maxident that much. In the middle of the era they were already excited for the next album and talking about 2023. 

 

Yesterday Felix said on bubble "this time" the songs are addictive. They seem very excited for 5-S. 

 

Maybe the Universe said they had to release Case 143 first for Japan Domination 

Y'all are panicking over nothing imo, I think Spicy numbers will be much better. So many people are unaware this song is out (even some of my friends) and it's also  b-side that doesn't have a hit sound - still not a boring ballad though it's a good track. Album numbers did really great so they're not complete flops like some people are saying here. 

 

But what if Welcome To My World doesn't get released on Apple Music until the album release?

They really are killing it their growth from debut to now is insane, it's a pleasure to watch!

3 hours later and nothing on AM

I feel so bad for the girls. I know this isn’t their doing. Just another poorly managed gg by an incapable company 

Ok let’s wait for the promoted TT but wow, Aespa downfall with the K GP should be studied. From potentially be a NGG to this in less than 2 years .

I remember everyone circlejerking around Illusion debut numbers though and it ended up being a moderate hit once they started promoting. You all love to start speaking too soon. 

 

This will definitely serve an Illusion/Girls tea and kill alot of the hype for the actual comeback. SM's management is in the pits 

 

OT: Proud of LSFM for breaking aespa's record  People who stan both are WINNING

Unforgiven already exceed 1.3M preorders so they're for sure to surpass Aespa at least for Girls, meanwhile My World preorders did over 1.5M so we need to wait and see.

 

Welcome To My World is EXCELLENT. Truly the arts not the charts

 

Time for SM to debut a new GG to give them their disposable 'girls' NCT'd type of tracks and let aespa flop with amazing music and become the indie queens they are meant to be

 

 

Why are they so allergic to gowns.

 

Always these little dresses. Kinda disappointed by Jennie's outfit.

tbh I think most of this is just coincidence

 

and maxident had several bops but yes it was definitely overshadowed by the oddinary era going on for like a year

It’s not even comparable. Other top gg’s are on Amazing Saturday, Knowing Bros, etc. Before album release which creates hype. SM has put Aespa no where and barely hyped anything. We’re a week away from title track and have no info on it, no MV teaser, nothing. Other groups at this point release 2-3 MV teasers/snippets plus album highlights etc.

 

SM is doing nothing with this group. Not even something as simply as individual instagrams so they’re more accessible to the GP

there's not much hype to kill 

Maybe speaking too soon but Welcome to My Flop might end up in my Top 10 of the year
