Yes, you can be a national hit without reaching PAK, but reaching PAK means the group is just on another level. They are at their PEAK, since not only the fans are streaming, but the whole nation is tuning in. No one said a PAK is stupid. Counting the hours is.
Cotton Posted February 2, 2023 Posted February 2, 2023 1 hour ago, Gaia said: This is dumb. No one said chart achievements don't matter. But K-pop fans have turned literally everything into some sort of bragging right. Imagine sitting at dinner with your family and being like "Wow I saw online that Harry Styles has been #1 in the US for like 15 weeks with As It Was!" vs Kpop fans "Wow, I saw online NewJeans has had 615 hours of Perfect All Kills with Ditto!" If you can't see how ridiculous that sounds, then that's on you. It's bizarre. And I like NJ's music and despise BTS, but this weird mentality of "taking down BTS" when Dynamite is bigger than NJ's entire career is so laksjdflka I mean this is all tea. But NJ’s snatching a record from BoTS is a win either way imo. Especially with a MUCH better song
getinthezone Posted February 2, 2023 Posted February 2, 2023 At this point NJ has the biggest first year out of any kpop group ever?
WhalieX Posted February 2, 2023 Posted February 2, 2023 It's cute when your fave gets a PAK meaning they've been #1 everywhere at certain point in time but counting hours is indeed dumb and very much the thing only kpop stans would care about. Don't Touch Me by Refund Sisters was at one point the song with the most PAKs for a girl group. Anyone still remembers that song? Didn't even come out that long ago. But anyways Ditto will clearly have more staying power than DTM and Dynamite is terrible so it's all good.
Chemist Posted February 2, 2023 Posted February 2, 2023 Eh we are on a site that was invented to talk about charts so ofc people are excited to talk about their faves breaking records. Miley smashing on Spotify has been what everyone's talking about in this site recently
Witnessed ET Posted February 2, 2023 Posted February 2, 2023 Umm how is NewJeans spending that long at #1 and breaking BTS aka the biggest kpop group’s record not something to talk about? Some of y’all are truly weird saying **** like that when y’all celebrate all kinds of minor “achievements” for your own faves in here. anyway congrats toddler queens Them ending that Dynamite and the Bots fans egos 6 months into debut is definitely something to celebrate

They are not mutually exclusive. Unless, you're saying a 1 hour pak is the same as that with 600+ hours one?

I think it was mostly his nose. But I'll have to see his face in motion to truly decide if it's better. Sometimes you can't fully tell through pics

I guess it depends on how each member feels — but Universal Japan essential has “LOONA” in a 3 year contract, and all the girls would have to fulfill that contract through releasing music, touring, etc from Japan (including Chuu), with Universal Japan taking over managing them full time. Quote “In the past, other K-Pop girl groups have experienced cases where they continued group activities in Japan, even after halting official group activities in Korea.”

Cain Posted February 2, 2023 Posted February 2, 2023 OMG’s production is SO good, all the little details who produces for them? NewRecords rightfully smashing is so satisfying
LCTV Posted February 2, 2023 Posted February 2, 2023 I love how everyone is talking about NewBornsRecordsGirlgroupJeans. Word of mouth in 2023 is how you get streams. The good music keeps them coming. BTS & BlackPink atleast opened the door.
