Now if SM actually is smart enough to do this and order enough stock this time...

 

**** them if true because I'm still waiting for my Armageddon CDP to arrive. 

Please be ugly/bad so I don't feel the need to buy it.

That's a great question! Agencies might schedule their group's comeback on the same day as another big group for a few reasons:

1. 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).

2. 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.

3. 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.

4. 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.

5. 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!

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

October serving 4th/5th gen bloodbath, we love to see it. All while Supernova refuses to leave the charts; lettuce pray for UsedJeans

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.

The Girls era wasn't even a flop when you look back at it, especially when the title did 260M+ digital points and Illusion reached 400M digital points.

Its perceived as bad because it happened when other groups were having huge eras.

[ItsJustMe.]

we hate GIRLS not because it underperformed but because it's a bad song 

stop saying whiplash will be anything like it 

 

the aespa girlies have been on a FLAWFREE streak since SPICY and we love to see it

truly the most exciting group in kpop right now

 

 

[ItsJustMe.]

he has the most luscious pair of **** seen in kpop

missing these queens 

[Rhyme]

I don't listen to Girls much these days, but it was iconic for a few months. Winter's bridge leading into the dance break then it ends with Ningning's VOICE and Winter's screeching>>>>>>

every show they're getting closer and closer to making out

 

cmon girls, time to officially launch the relationship now that everyone has bought their unrefundable tickets

mentioned Wonbin's propensity for constantly and gratuitously showing pits ONE TIME and now I keep seeing tweets from that "Wonbin's Armpits" account

 

I feel like this is something @xrosup would follow

 

 

You should feel blessed by your algorithm for providing you good pit meals constantly

ILLIT is coming back the same day as aespa? I feel bad for them, HYBE is always throwing them into some kind of mess. 

[Save-Me-Oprah]

I don't usually fall for kpop fan ships but I am TOTALLY locked in for Haobin, they are my Princess Diana

 

they are beautiful soulmates since the moment they first met and love truly isn't real if they're ever separated

I just learned this song has been slowly rising on the Korean charts. And gotta say I'M HERE for a RESCENE success story.
