Im crying at all these adjectives 

 

but I don’t blame the intern though

The intern's so creative with the adjectives  :clap3: Had me reading through their Mingyu tweets and ravishing and dapper are... unique choices

 

 

The intern got lazy with "charming" and had everyone thinking they were fired

    Chill Kill deserves to be #1 or at least #2, My World should be top 7 at least, I've Mine deserves a top 10 spot for Holy Moly alone, Heat by Gidle deserves a spot in top 15 at least, Weeekly's last album absolutely deserves a spot on the list, and where is Taeyeon? :celestial5: I do agree w a lot of the choices though if not the ranking

    They were allegedly very popular and had the highest selling album in 4th gen, selling over 600K in 2019. It's weird how they were forced to disband due to the rigging scandal while DIZ*BAND were allowed to continue as a group?

    2024 will probably just have TXT and Enhypen swap places

     

    TXT will continue their downward spiral and the GP will wake up on Enhypen 

     

    RIIZE and ZB1 will continue to dominate as 5th gen leaders

     

    spacer.png

    Not if ENHYPEN keep releasing Sweet Venoms, Pass the Mics etc., HYBE needs to understand they need to stick to their Gay vampire roots, otherwise they will underperform

    I'm watching Jojio's Bizarre adventure, and I was finally happy to see Polnareff again after 2 seasons, just for The Boss aka Diavolo to kill him right after

    2024? 

     

    I'm sure The Boyz was bigger than ATEEZ in 2018. They used to sell close to Stray Kids back in 2018 and had better domestic digital than both. 

    Just now, BTS said:

    Swap Stayc with Gidle for 2021

    Swap LSFM with Gidle for 2022 

     

     

    GIDLE only released Hwaa in January 2021 and didn't do anything else, since the whole group was on a hiatus due to the Soojin scandal. STAYC were in their peak and had ASAP and STEREOTYPE that year. 

     

    LE SSERAFIM had more sales and streams than GIDLE in 2022. Antifragile was also one of the biggest Kpop songs last year. 

     

     

    The way Twice’s pre release announcement came and went. Another L era I fear

    They were all selling close to each other, with ATEEZ also being bigger on streaming than THE BOYZ, while also having more known songs in the Kpop community

    I just looked again and you were right @Mitsuki

    I looked at ATEEZ 2019 numbers in the 2018 list, let me edit the list :clack:

    Twice Itzy and NMIXX all make no noise outside of their bases wbk. Atleast Twice has reach outside of their fanbase with their massive hits and general popularity tho the other's can't say the same.

    ATEEZ debuted too late in 2018 to have a bigger year than The Boyz. I'd say their first breakthrough was when they released Wonderland in late 2019.

    I won't recommend Face The Sun repackage bc I already know you'll hate World and Circles, but add these to your FTS listening tomorrow. They're in the repackage. I love Fallin' Flower and kinda completely hate Cheers but I think you might like it since our tastes seem to differ a lot :bird:

     

     

    And speak nicely even if you hate the albums  :khalyan2:

    Just so you know, I have already listened to every SVT song that has an MV, since I did a SVT MV marathon and watched all their MV's in order last year including both b-side MV's and Japanese MV's. I'm more familiar with SVT than you are with SKZ :khalyan2:
