RIIZE actually delivering a cohesive body of work instead of a collection of random writing camp'd demos from 2016 

Love to see that

Didn't SM design for RIIZE to be a global group @Save-Me-Oprah?

You're right, let's talk instead about how SMTOWN's concert in Mexico was such a flop that they had to reduce the venue by over 80%, move the stage forward, give away free tickets, and still couldn't fill what was left  They're the first to downsize that stadium to an arena setup

 

You can see here, where SMTWON cut off the venue, in comparison to when SKZ performed

Lisa originally released the music video for "ROCKSTAR" on June 28, 2024 at 9 a.m. KST, meaning that it took approximately 10 months and 21 days to reach the milestone.

We said the same thing about RIIIZE, and look at them now snatching a hit. People do care it seems

Edited May 19, 20251 yr by Pluto6

everyone knows and has acknowledged that SMTown was a panned flop, idk what it has to do with Stray Kids

 

Okay, the i-dle mini album is actually pretty good. Feels very... outdated? But good. How's the charting going?

is it just me or is this idle cb not hitting as hard as it should?

Are Twice completely irrelevant now in SK/WW ? I kinda ignored them after set me free cuz it was really bad hopefully they go back on the right track

They are over in SK, but still have a big following WW. People seem to be hyped about this upcoming comeback as well, looking at the engagements etc.

Popularity wise in SK, it's currently btw Riize and BND. The top 100 means nothing if they can't reach the top 5 of Melon daily chart. 

 

 

BOYNEXTDOOR outcharted other HYBE boy groups like TXT, ENHYPEN & TWS in Korea surprised me the most. They are doing so well on Melon.

 

And that Myung Jaehyun guy always going viral with his charming personality. 

I do not like RIIZE's title track or any of the new songs at all (except "Odyssey") but the MV is great. I love when k-pop MVs are a love letter to dance AND summer so this was just *chef's kiss*. If it gets me to like the song I swear 

 

But actually BND's album is a real sleeper hit for me, I like every single track and their live performances are great. I really missed that kind of sound from boy groups. Like this is SO cute.

 

 

I know miss IU was shaking in her boots when this happened
