But catch me if you can could be considered dark and edgy and most people didnt like it and Galaxy supernova was upbest and most people liked it! The complaint about Party is that its nothing special. It a song that any other girl group could release. The GG factor is missing.

they're not just giving out these prices randomly y'know it's based on digital and physical sales + voting and some other stuff. And the song is doing really well it was #1 weekly on the gaon chart this week + #2 on phyiscal (behind Big Bang) and it's doing A LOT better than mr mr so the korean public probably likes it

Edit: #1 on music bank today

I don't care if PARTY gets more or less awards it still sounds like a Katy Perry song

Mr taxi and CMIYC live. I noticed that Sooyoung had the most "cheering" from the audience during CMIYC. Is she the favorite in Japan? Also; everything about Sunny SCREAMS "I don't want to be here".

Well, first, it's not necessarily a bad thing. You may not like it, but a good majority of the world does.
Secondly, you may not care, but I'm pretty sure SM and the girls do. $$$$$$$

So they decided to replace the live vocal with studio version...in live monster performance...

They tried so hard to edit this..to make the girls looks energic like usual, even though we can see from the fan cam that so many mistakes here and there. Sunny face is so dead. Her movement is so slow...looks like she ready to faint anytime.

Maybe the weather is so hot? The girls face looks so oily which is not usual...usually they looks very fresh. Maybe this summer is so hot so the girls looking very tired.


they start to use their live vocal on PARTY performance...what do you think? I don't think they have done a good job...

I don't like it but it hasn't sell that well to make you do those assumptions, we have to wait a month or 2 to see if it did better than their past hits and the summer comebacks

What are you even talking about? I just pointed out the fact that it's a very commercial and generic song for obvious reasons: popularity and money. I'm not questioning its success or whatnot (which it is, no need to wait a month or two to know if a song is popular if it's doing great digitally and if the group won every single show for their first week against pretty popular other groups), or if it matches your tastes or not. It's certainly doing better than Mr Mr that's for sure.

Korean artists get their money from CD sales and touring digital sales are not relevant

Even if they win 100 of these cheap awards they make 0 profit of it

^I tend to think it's the other way round. The physical sales in Korea are not very representative as the digital sales.

^EXID sold 840,000 units of their 1st digital singles but they got 0 profit

Somebody here asked why I think Taeyon was a b*tch

She will sue fans who commented bad things about her on instagram after her latest appareance at Inkigayo (where she obviously lacked of professionalism). After this Jessica updated her instagram with "What goes around comes around #karma #sweetdreams" lol

Spoiler:
And it's not the first time that Taeyeon is pissed in some show, I remember when they recieved an award with "Oh!" Taeyon's speech was something like "I wish this show had better staff members, thanks for the award" and she looked angry the whole performance

^^ EXID didn't get any profit because korean groups need to bring the money that was invested in their training accomodation etc. back in first. Until Up & Down they didn't have any big hits so it's really not surprising, also they're from a small company. I suppose SME groups don't need to do that because the company has more than enough money. Digital sales are very relevant actually they reflect whether a song is popular in the public or not (same as in japan....) Physical sales come from fandoms and aside from SNSD there are barely any girl groups with good physical sales. And actually the biggest source of income is if they get to shoot a CF.

And Taeyeon isn't a b*tch for wanting to sue people that talk sh*t about her, after her "dating scandal" it kinda blew up and I suppose she still gets a ton of hate from Baekhyun fans telling her to get away from their precious oppar. Also this attitude scandal recently is a f*cking joke, just because she didn't look into the camera on two screenshots she has an attitude problem, yeah right. Just the press being thirsty for controversies.

Also Jessica quoted a song in her instagram post and changed the caption to "Really...?" Probably after seeing ridiculous comments about how it's supposed to be shade at taeyeon.

^ still wondering if you ever like ANYTHING or else why you're still on this forum, obviously Utena meant the good majority of people who heard the song but then again what am i expecting from YOU

^Then how it comes that AFTERSCHOOL sells over a million copies per digital single in Korea BUT instead they preffer to go to Japan and sell 16k physical copies? There are tons of examples like this... Physical copies ARE more relevant.

Lol that's a very bad example though. Comparing EXID and SNSD doesn't really make sense. They're not that successful and still newbies, I highly doubt SNSD girls don't get anything from their digital sales but that's just my view on things. Anyways, it's most likely a matter of contract and no one will ever know the truth so there's no use having a heated debate over things we will never understand.
Plus, ok if you want to say that physical sales are "more relevant" (coming from Korea it's a bit odd, but ok), it doesn't mean digital sales don't count, especially to judge if a song is successful or not.

I didn't even like her THAT much you know, but she was one of the main girls, always on the spot, always first in line. It seems strange without her
