Tbf, the first few releases from every Avex act usually has good art direction and decent budget (e.g. Kalen Anzai and FAKY)

I'm more curious to see if they'll keep the quality for their next releases cause XG is not making a dent in Korea nor Japan so far. I wish they were releasing songs in Japanese or Korean, not in English.

Korea. They’re too GC they would flop so hard+ they’re all Japanese same goes to japan I think only the legacy acts still can sell. 
by singing in English they aren’t catered to one specific market also the k-pop promotion is smart imo. I hope they will get a decent fandom because I-fans will not stan until they hit big in Asia first.

The way people laughed at Yeonjun for calling himself 4th gen it boy only for his bars to break all the records for preorders

Chinese fanbase buying tons of album doesn't make someone an It Boy/Girl.

True but the point is XG doesn't look like  they have decent budget only especially the Shooting Star MV, it's giving kpop's top group level budget. The cgi is not actually cheap and this level of quality, the execution and the transitions are all flawless! I'm really curious about their actual sales, they are slowly making their name out there but I agree, it's not enough yet

how do you know? we don't know their album sales 

(or if you know where to check it, I'd appreciate a link)

Oricon combined single charts (here's their chart history page). Tippy Toe didn't even debut and Mascara peaked #27.

Baemon’s future :deadbanana4:  Glad I chose not to stan anyone from YG anymore. These young girls are not ready yet. Raw talent but they need some time to grow and develop their skills. Not everyone can be Hyein & Eunchae

Charli has so many hyperpop leftovers, SM better buy a whole folder and fund her next era :jonny5:

Do you even know what an It boy is?

Eunwoo is the IT BOY and his group sales are beyond tragic.

this is literally the only kpop song I know because it ripped off Nicki's Pound the Alarm :rip:

 

 

 

do Korean audiences know that a hit song was actually a Nicki Minaj ripoff?

It's just purely based on digitals tho they haven't had physical releases

What's funny is Mascara actually was shaping up to be a hit (Peaked #17 on oricon streaming chart/#14 on the hot 100) but it's run was beyond tragic (48-15-14-15-14-20-30-25-32-42-88-out):skull:

Do you guys remember when fx STOLE a song from that german girlgroup? They literally only translated the lyrics and sold the song as their own. How did they get away with that?

Let me rephrase it: YJ is the most popular 4th gen male idol. Is that better? :giraffe:
