Super Senior being inserted in the discussions of actually relevant SM acts like EXO, Taeyeon and SHINEe:

 

Aren't Super Junior like Kpop legends or something? Like weren't they BIGBANG's direct rivals during 2nd gen etc.?

 

Aren't these Kpop classics?

Yes, and they lost for a reason.

playlisting? from the same company that fails playlisting aespa ..nct...rv ..etc? only for them to playlist... kai? that doesnt exaplain the popping youtube views that match the spotify streams

 

 

 

spotify rover : 115,969,628 (faily a new track) 

mmmh: 158,383,652

 

baekhyun dusty top tracks: 

candy : 93,770,362

bambi: 66,772,622

UN village: 71,730,096 (extremely hyped debut)

 

i fear mr. vocalist is being carried by those ost for those monthyl listeners 

 

Baekhyun is in demand by one of the biggest video games is a drag? Baekhyun is an album artist, hence why a single album of his can outsell Kai's discography and he has 4 b-sides with 30M streams whilst Kai only has 1 b-side over 20M views (a bside from his debut album where each song had a track video). 

 

Kai would never be able to get a gig that big, because he is brand POISON. This is why Kai fans embarrassingly spam brands like Fenty Beauty to make him an ambassador (and get met with a big fat NO!). 

 

[Mattheo]

kai going international.... D.O having a south career hit..... oh they left only dust for mr. vocalist

Does Kai have anything else than spotify streams so his name can be used in the same sentence as THEE Baekhyun? 

 

Yes good music, he’s carrying exo stage presence, legacy, respect and one of the most viral k tv moment .

Both can be put in the same sentence, like I said they have their own strengths and are a big part of exo success

Baekhyun hasn't came back solo since early 2021. Barely any Kpop acts were charting then, Kai included. Let's wait until his next solo comeback. 

 

Fun fact: Delight by Baekhyun has sold the same amount as Kai's discography plus an extra 130k.

 

We will see his next cb then 

 

You can brags about the physicals sales as you want, it’s still doesn’t change the fact that Kai TT made more noise globally.

kai is a public boy that's why u see him starring in ads next to the likes of IU, baekhyun is the one with a large amount of cult stans that terrorise brands for him

I'm sorry but these 2 songs are better than anything SHINee has released:

 

I loveeee Bonamana but...

 

Orgel alone stomps on anyone...

Speaking of King Kai. I can’t believe we still have to wait over 1 year and 4 months for his return

Yes and that's why Baekhyun is more successful cause Kai has better stage presence, music and dancing. You wouldn't expect a sense from Katy Perry fan 

 

The way you’re always thinking you’re doing something by bringing your Katy hatred in the kpop thread when faced with facts 

 

also idk what success has to do with better stage presence, music and dancing…but idk why I was expecting  a Tayloose Swift fan to know any of these things or the difference

I just want to help people. I'm a Kpop philanthropist. Sadly, a lot of the demographic of this thread only like music they can twerk to and do not have the critical thinking and STEM degrees I do.

I think we can all agree EXO's main vocals are excellent, but Kyungsoo is the best

 

And while all of the members solos have been great, Kai's is the best and Rover clears in quality and fun

 

And that’s on period.

Weeekly are excellent performers! Also this one was made by IVE main producer, they lost a potential b side classic with this one

it’s not like he wasn’t a YSL beauty ambassador, while being a global ambassador for Gucci for more than 5 years and even got his own Gucci collection lol 
 

Meanwhile Burberry never called back Baekhyun after he came back from the military. I don’t think he’s the brand poison here
