Zack Posted September 22 Share Posted September 22 1 hour ago, Save-Me-Oprah said: why would any agency willingly schedule their group for the same day as another big group tho SM and YG have used this tactic before. Who could forget SNSD vs. 2NE1 in 2014. Or Jessica vs. Tiffany in 2016. It happens even in western pop, such as Roar vs. Applause. It's a tale as old as time.

illia Posted September 22 Share Posted September 22 (edited) 45 minutes ago, Pluto6 said: That's a great question! Agencies might schedule their group's comeback on the same day as another big group for a few reasons: Strategic Timing: Sometimes, agencies believe the timing aligns well with their promotional strategies or they might have a specific date in mind based on past success or significant events (like anniversaries). Creating Buzz: Releasing on the same day as a major group can create a lot of conversation in the industry. The increased attention might help both groups get noticed, especially if fans are excited about the releases. Confidence in Their Material: Agencies may feel confident that their group's music and concept are strong enough to stand out, even against tough competition. They might think their release could spark curiosity among fans of the bigger group. Fandom Dynamics: Some agencies might think that their group has a distinct enough fanbase that they won't be overshadowed. They might also hope that fans will check out both releases, especially if there's a potential crossover. Media Opportunities: Releasing on the same day can attract more media attention, as outlets will cover both groups, which can amplify their promotional efforts. Ultimately, it's a risk-reward scenario, and agencies have different strategies and reasons for their scheduling decisions!

Zack Posted September 22 Share Posted September 22 (edited) 8 minutes ago, OrgVisual said: We can only pray it won't tank like GIRLS I mean Girls didn't even tank It spent 2 weeks in the top 10 and peaked at #8 on Melon and Circle digital. Plus the album sold 1.8M. An underperformance for aespa's high standards yes, but this year, there have been far more crazy bombs by others, so compared to that, it doesn't look so bad after all Edited September 22 by Zack 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eternium Posted September 22 Share Posted September 22 2 hours ago, swifthino said: both aespa and illit are coming off the biggest kpop hits of the year... this will be an interesting battle I am 100% sure that this is an attempt for HYBE to show ILLIT doing better than Aespa to lower SM's stock prices and raise theirs. I expect the Spotify payola and label bulk buys will be at an all-time high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its perceived as bad because it happened when other groups were having huge eras. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
