i think we’ll get promotions

 

also i remember her mentioning that there were three tracks for the digital single (album) but the teaser makes it seem like she is only releasing one :dancehall3:

Wait I’m confused… 

So it’s a single album? But digital with no physical release? 
Because I’m pretty sure Tail and Heartburn had physical releases rigjt?

It was seeing both TXT and ENHYPEN cosplaying as “bad boys” last year but sadly they both underperformed with it, so they had no choice but to revert back to their flower boy and gay vampire concepts 

 

Why

 

just why

 

why

 

Why  did you have to bring this back

 

we (I’m talking about enhypen fans) have discarded and buried that horrible music and era deep beneath the depths of Drunk Dazed blood fountain so don’t you DARE try to  awaken the traumas and despair from that dark (figuratively) period

 

ugh

 

im SHUDDERING even thinking about it

ENHYPEN were truly lucky that they were able to bounce back from that, cause had a gg been in a similar situation as them, they would’ve probably been cancelled a long time ago. Just look at ITZY with Sneakers for example.

I didn't think Either Way would hit but it's been in my head all day, especially the "goooOOOOOhd" part.

Anyone with a dedicated fanbase will be fine though. Yeah enhypen declined a little in streams which was an indication of people not liking the music, but they still sold a million albums. And that goes for a gg too. Itzy still has a fanbase, it’s just that their digital power declined in Korea immensely.
 

The real difference in success is visible in areas where the gp is more responsible like the song charts. But the way 4th gen bgs are already so non existent in the digital realm, there is not much “cancellation” to base anything on. Maybe it’s slightly noticeable in the streams but even that area is mostly controlled by how big a group’s fanbase is. Mostly.

Everyone gets it though? It’s a mega bop and I’ve heard mostly positive reception of it.

It’s not even about digitals, since Loco was also a flop in Korea, but did amazing on global streaming.
ITZY has seen a huge decline in streaming as well. None of their songs since Loco which was 2 years ago have surpassed 100M streams. 

Their album sales are good though, but they haven’t really grown as much in sales either compared to their peers. Yeah they keep selling a million with each album, but they should be doing between 1.5M-2M album sales by now. NMIXX and ITZY should not be selling almost the same amount of albums for example.
