Drama M/V is so ****** good. Too bad the song is mediocre

[motherpills]

2 days till blackpink news 

[hindsight]

I like Drama's chorus but the rest of the sing is kind forgettable? a reverse Savage tea

 

like the amount of times they say 1,2,3   the lyricists were just saying **** 

 

 

[hindsight]

Girls still Aespa's best title as a whole, even the breakdown is excellent 

 

it's their Signal/Rookie I fear, a sing that will stand the test of time and be appreciated by those with exquisite taste

I actually LOVE it! I legit can't stop listening to it   Spicy and Drama are kinda their best releases 

i'm obsessed with Trick or Trick though  and of course, Don't Blink is b-side of the year!

Isn't it a shipment problem or something? Like I wouldn't be surprised if it will gain 1M sales on a random day this week.

 

By the way, did aespa/stray kids post their pre-orders numbers?

They didnt, I think is best for the companies not reveal those numbers in case they can't meet the demand on their first week, or protest trucks will be sent, or they didnt do as big as before and don't need this type of publicity

[hindsight]

ugh I'm kinda obssessed with Drama's choreo, I can't believe they finally got a decent one again 

 

the chorus armography would make Britney sunbaenim gag so hard

 

it's so catchy and nice to watch without being too basic or tiktok'd, I love it

 

 

 

[hindsight]

it's giving Shut Down choreo but actually good

I still don't understand why JYP is pushing MOMO to sing, when she originally wanted to be a dnacer/rapper. MISAMO unit with her rapping and being highkey the best parts of the whole project shows, she should stop singing.

Dahyun should be a sub vocal while momo a lead vocal tbh

That opening scene dow 

 

 

My ranking in terms of their TTs mvs

 

Savage > Girls > Drama > Black Mamba > Spicy > Next Level

 

 

They're in the real world atm so the Aes better have new lewks for AE1  

[Xalric]

Who would have thought that GFRIEND would be the last standing sexy concept GG

 

 

This choreo is EVERYTHING.

Weekends have most shops closed so Friday releases typically do poorly on Hanteo and then the Monday and Thursday dates do huge numbers. NCT just had a moment like this and their first day bombed only for them to score their biggest first week and highest seller.

What concerns me about aespa is that SM didn't make any announcements about pre-orders at all, this time around. 

 

For Girls and MY WORLD, they made announcements after 1 week of pre-orders and then again on the days of the comebacks. Obviously there have been issues with the album production this time. I still hope it should be as high a seller as the previous two albums, but it might take a little longer to get there. 

 

But the Spotify numbers have been great for them and the music and performances have been on point. They have been working so hard this year.

i enjoy aespa’s kwangya shtick but i also like that they are pivoting away from it a bit while still keeping that classic aespa feel/concept

 

[hallucinate]

also does anyone realize that SM stopped pushing this whole Kwangya thing on the company as a whole? love to see it (hope i’m not jinxing it)

it should belong to aespa only

It kinda faded with LSM leaving I think. He was going to push and expand it even harder with all that tree planting stuff. 

 

But now that he and all his associates are pretty much gone from the company, it's going in a new direction. They kinda dropped SMCU for now too, since the last episode ended on that cliffhanger with BoA...yet we haven't heard anything about it since
