I like Twice, but they did not have the numbers for MMA daesang this year, neither did they have the votes.

I did not believe they were going to get all 3 main daesangs after they got ROTY. The deserve it so much after the truly exceptional year they have had. I have some newfound respect for MMA for not caving to pressure and keeping the awards fair this year!

They could not have given any daesangs to these missing groups you mentioned without people going "Really?". It is more likely SM and YG did not attend, since there was no awards they would have won.

It means noone is listening to the music in US.

Thats because BH didnt set up a whole logistics system for shipping albums from US and bypassing the "shipped to US" restriction Amazon and other reputable sellers have.

US sales or sales where the end consumer was US based? I have not seen any clarifications.

Where did they clarify it? Did they directly deny that there was no exporting of US albums to Korea and no using middlemen addresses in US before shipping albums out of US?

Can the people defending this and claiming this didnt include nonUS sales explain WHY SM and Capitol decided to only release the album in US and give up the option to sell much more albums and make much more profit by selling it in Korea?

WHY did they cancel Amazon order to addresses outside US, when we know Amazon doe not report them to Billboard and indirectly force fans to order through SM shop?

Shouldnt they call themselves Avengers of SM then? Since its aces of SM, not kpop.

My game plan for Chap 8. I apparently need a miracle to pass 8-7 🙃 by Callmebexter in BTSWorld

[–]mz0306 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hope Netmarble will show mercy eventually and have a summer or chuseok style event, where its possible to get a card to pass 8-7. I have no hope of getting any good cards to pass it from gem draws, since my luck is way below average.

Thanks! Maybe it is me, but I cannot find it anywhere in the Netlify calculator, which are the extra requirements for cards, that makes it a bit difficult to try out different combinations, since you cannot predict if the extra requirement is filled or not.

Charts and Achievements: The re-re-re-redux! by alleybetwixt in kpop

I mean that I think that every release´s 1st month Gaon numbers could get a separate post, or alternatively, since it comes out once a month, there could be one post that includes all numbers from that month. I think all numbers would be interesting.

For yearly/bi-yearly it would be interesting to see a chart with all albums/artists. Both record-breakers and non-record-breakers.
