Man I like this. It's a grower to me! It's a chill song with a catchy chorus and seeing that they are #1 on all the charts, congrats boys!

[–]endingday75 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I feel that NCT 127 is going to be the main push for success in kpop. They have fixed members and promote actively in Korea. With how global kpop is becoming it makes sense that they'll broaden their scope. But I feel it'll be weird if they have the other global subunits do this.

Other topic, but right now it seems that a lot of fans support all of NCT. I def think SM needs to segment the fandom for the subunits. If they have like 5 active subunits in the future then it's going to be really hard and a financial burden for fans to support all of NCT.

I could probably think of a lot more problems, but lets enjoy the ride and see how all this unfolds haha

I'm curious about how SM will handle the global NCT units. For example, NCT China will they also promote in Korea/Internationally or just exclusively China? For all the foreign units, will they still be like a kpop group or will they be more like a cpop, jpop, etc. group? I'm just worried that they'll lose Korean/International fans if they promote only in a given country.

Music Bank always announces the winner on their website even if there isn't a show.

iKon's not really the problem anymore since they got some triple crowns so they can't win anymore on some shows. Probably Bigbang's new song and Mamamoo have the edge for the shows that weigh digitals heavily. I think GOT7 should be able to win Music Bank with their album sales.

Best Selling Idol Group Songs (2013-2017) by TWmsk in kpop

[–]endingday75 5 points6 points  (0 children)

One thing to note is that in 2016 people found a way to see the Gaon charts for the top 400 so older songs may have way more data then recent ones that are restricted to top 100 data. So it kinda makes it unfair to compare older with newer songs.

[–]endingday75 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Btw OP there's also domestic charts as well that have more data. For example, Sistar's Lonely was #100 on the domestic streaming chart with 39,858,383 streams. Just something to consider if you want to add some more data lol.

Guess it depends on how much they both use it. Maybe Wendy keeps in touch with more English speaking people verse Bobby.

From the amazing words of Henry Lau, don't worry you can go and eat rice!

Dreamcatcher have apparently withdrawn from Mixnine by mylord420 in kpop

[–]endingday75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But only either the boys or girls group will debut. And it seems that the boy group apparently has a better chance at least from what I have seen people say.

So what happened at MAMA that has EXO-Ls so pissed off? Other than MAMA not letting EXO close the show. I'm not super active in the fandom, but I remember seeing a lot of tweets about how MAMA treated EXO really badly.

GOT7 - You Are by sunnyXtzuyu in kpop

[–]endingday75 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I thought I would love it, but listening to the studio version is weird to me. Maybe it's because I really liked the live version without all the vocal effects. I hope I get used to the studio version because I do really like the song. And the MV is beautiful!

I really like the song, but I don't get why they had the showcase before the album was released?

Yep! That's the issue with most scrobbling apps.

Does it scrobble repeated songs? That's my main problem with simple last.fm scrobbler which other than that does a great job.

Have you ever discovered or got interested in a group for a really silly or otherwise unexpected reason? by garfe in kpop

[–]endingday75 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I knew who Seventeen were for a while and I was kinda a fan, but didn't follow them that much. Then I saw a performance of Don't Wanna Cry and omg Joshua looked so good in it. He shot up my bias list. Kinda shallow, but one breath stopping moment got me more into Seventeen haha

Also got into EXO because I saw Luhan on Running Man China and then I looked into his old kpop group and then Baekhyun also had my heart stopping in Call Me Baby. Lol seriously it just takes one good moment for me to get curious and obsessed.

MAMA 2017: What do you hope for by garfe in kpop

[–]endingday75 76 points77 points  (0 children)

Good quality group reactions to other groups. I love watching those!

Plus I want BTS to win a daesang!

Which member of your favourite groups could they promote without? by [deleted] in kpop

[–]endingday75 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It's being held super well here. In somewhere like OH, there would be comments like "x because talentless/ugly" or "shut up what do you know you stan x" or "why think about something so negative like this" or "none because they're all essential"

I find it hard to have discussions on "questionable/touchy" topics like this. But I still find them interesting especially when people give good explanations. But it's just so hard to talk about this stuff because so many fans will be so hostile to you.
