Is that hard to figure out that people is craving for Drama for their English single?

a song like Drama would probably tank for an English single - it has a very harsh kpop sound that isn’t palatable to wider western audiences

 

look at the global crossover hits from the genre the last couple of years: none of them really have that vibe. the closest would be Blackpink songs, and they have a much larger global fanbase (and I say this as a MY vs only being an occasional BP fan). stuff like Super Shy, Cupid, Flower, Ditto, Dynamite, etc are a lot more melodic with less abrasive production.

 

the problem with aespa’s earlier English releases is they felt either too juvenile or dated on arrival + they didn’t really fit their brand. something like Thirsty (English ver) would’ve done much better while still feeling very aespa

I love how this song had an absurd skyrocket to Top 10 and the SECOND it reaches Top 10 it stabilizes. Sorry but it seems so fraudulent.

I don't know how TWS got into top 10 so quick, but why can't HYBE payola TXT the same way? or other labels... I can name a few groups that would love this :gaycat2:

Charts are dead so it’s easier to reach higher peak right now.
 

So far #34 (+71) on this week’s Circle Digital Chart, for YouTube SK, #15 on daily top songs on shorts and still not top 10 for both top mv and top song charts. Apparently the song is viral among students but it’s still hasn’t translated on YouTube. Maybe next week?

Drama would be a bad choice for English single. The lyrics would probably be cringe too knowing SM. 
 

Thirsty English version would have been better

Thirsty is so generic and not memorable. Like it’s a good b side but that’s it :coffee2:!
 

Now this what AESPA should promote in the US instead of that boring song, Life to short or whatever…

Honestly I thought that Riize's chart performance was fake (Kakao/SM) but seems like I was wrong, so.... Time is the ultimate truth teller.

I don’t follow every step of Itzy but this title track of theirs was the first one that I really liked after Wannabe tbh. 

 

although I do think it would be difficult for Lia if she was here, the choreo is so sharp and quick. They really are insane dancers, like do you see the precision in each step?
