But pre releases usually get the most hype though? Dynamite was the pre release to Be and Pink Venom was the pre release to Born Pink, both did better than Life Goes On and Shut Down respectively. 

 

The fans blow their metaphorical load on the first single that comes out. Unless V's later songs go viral somehow, I don't expect them to do better than these two. 

not always

jimin released set me free first but like crazy was his big debut 

I imagine V will be doing the same

still hoping for a bop

set me free is the worst BTS solo song ever released, literally anything would do better than it. 

 

I just don't think V is the kind of person to release bops. Almost all his self-released solo songs so far are snoozy ballads like Winter Bear. It shouldn't surprise anyone that he's making coffee shop music, just like it shouldn't surprise anyone that Jungkook is releasing Bieber-esque pop.

Are we finally getting a performance?  I wonder if the set list will change also

[Xalric]

 

the fact that this version of Hyungwon solo version are not released, is a crime. And it's not like it doesn't exist, I hear they are lipsyncing.

 

 

[Odette Violet]

 

 

Sokor's Summer Queens 

 

 

Impressive how this is the most viewed 2014 GG MV and their over all yt view engagement are also better than most 2nd GGs that aren't SNSD

The only SM song who spend more than 1 day in Spotify global chart and the company did nothing to push it

Jk had the whole of Hybe and cooter backing him, I genuinely wouldn’t even know V had music out if I didn’t frequent here.

 

The fact that Still with you debuted with more uls than this, and people still don’t think JK is the most popular one. But let’s wait for V main TT, hope it’s not a snooze again.

the way IVE never missed with their title tracks yet

kitsch is their only miss, maybe they should never do pre-releases 

[hallucinate]

speaking of kitsch, i feel like if it was a title track or released way before I AM– it could’ve seriously damaged their career

itzy releasing sneakers, boys like you and cheshire back to back teas

The fact they released this in their DEBUT album 

Kim Petras was found shook

 

 

[Odette Violet]

 

 

 

Like you got the best vocalist, best dancer, visual in the game going off in one song. A triple threat that made Genie the best Kpop song of all time, I don't see this new girls doing it

Honestly Kitsch as a song is not bad it’s just that they don’t have the dancing skills and stage presence to performs it except Yujin !

What an amazing song

I still didn't forget when the whole k-pop community started switching on this song all of a sudden when it started winning daesangs over their faves' songs  like even KTRL never switched like that I think

Then the massive IVE hate train began but thankfully I AM humbled #them real quick

in korea, it is

WW it got mixed revieed and killed the hype for I AM

thankfully I AM won at the end even if it’s just a one day difference

while kitsch is getting less streams than love dive already

it’s not terrible obviously (i mean i’ve listened to it a lot) but it’s just so mid…

and agree with you on the yujin part, she honestly stomped  

wonyoung’s title as the IT girl was shaken a bit i fear

Kitsch >>>>>> I AM. A little weirdness is necessary in Kpop
