xfreshkidxx Posted June 8, 2023 Share Posted June 8, 2023 (edited) 1 hour ago, Zack said: Next Level spent over 2x as long in Circle (Gaon) digital top 5. Longevity wise, those other songs were not doing that (which is what I assume @MonsterNavy was referring to, since they mentioned "freefalling") Next Level became (at the time) the longest charting girl group song ever within the Melon weekly top 10 (27 weeks) and the longest charting girl group song on Melon, of all time (81 weeks) AND the longest ever on Circle digital chart (80 weeks). Plus, after peaking at #1 (surpassing BTS Butter), it repeaked and re-entered the top 20 of Melon again several times later (including over a year later, after it went viral for being used in the Korean presidential campaign). It was a national hit with staying power. Mind you "Cheer Up" was tied with Tell Me for most weeks in the Melon top 10 w/ 17 prior to NL and charted for 68 weeks in the top 100 (again a record at the time for GG) so looks like they were doing THAT and in a much more difficult time for charting. You know what Aespa arent doing? Grabbing a #1 single or YEC #1. Edited June 8, 2023 by xfreshkidxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conversely, Melon was 100% real-time based back then, so only hourly ULs really counted, which is how the famous "zombie streaming" originated. Next Level was released during the 24Hits era, which only counted 24 hour ULs for the chart. It was much harder to climb than an hourly based chart, which could change drastically within hours, due to fandom based mass-streaming, which is why Melon made many changes. And it's not so much simply "longevity" for NL, it's more "all time" and "in history". There's a difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OrgVisual Posted June 8, 2023 Share Posted June 8, 2023 Yup, Next Level (a #2 hit) is indeed bigger than the majority of #1 hits Same can be said about Hype Boy (#2) and Antifragile (#2). Peak is meaningless in Kpop world 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know what Aespa arent doing? Grabbing a #1 single or YEC #1 As above, it was easier to chart than it is now on Melon, due to the old real-time system which enabled mass streaming, plus Melon usage numbers were much higher. YouTube Music has overtaken Melon in Korea this week as the biggest platform. That being said "all time" and "in history" stats > year end chart. aespa did that and with digitals AND physicals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last time I checked Twice werent the ones crying over the material they were being given. aespa clearly have higher standard while your TalentlessWICE don't, hence all the songs they released are trash when even Forever aka aespa's worst song, is still better than TWICE's discography, worry about that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next Level streams on Melon in just 21 months = 200M+ I guess aespa will have to settle for having achieved the longest ever charting GG song on Melon and Circle and the best selling GG album ever on Hanteo and the fastest GG album to reach 2M copies. Poor them, I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
