Its been so long since I checked back here. Hoe people doing?

Listening to the audio of the concert last night was a whole experience. I cant wait for my next concert with them.

Also remember that YT keeps getting faster at verifying views. This is why for Likey we would have random spikes of more views. And as these additions were being added it made the daily total seem bigger. I would say by the first month the views would be all sorted so that is a good point to compare from if talking about views between old and new releases.

Damn, these fanchants 

And it was a surprise visit too. Reminds me of Cheer Up era

Japanese Girls Going to Korea to Find the 'Twice' Dream

 

This article recaps a bit of that April 30th Reuters article, "K-Pop stardom lures Japanese Youth to Korea Despite Diplomatic Chill".

Haha first they say BTS is the reason for Japanese people wanting to become Kpop stars in Japan. Then they ask JYPE for their input on their Japanese promotion while barely mentioning Twice then ask JYPE for comment. Strange reporter

Jihyo made a hint during their recent fan signing. When she was asked WHAT WOULD THEIR NEXT CPMEBACK BE LIK. She replies SHE WANTS ANOTHER SUMMER COMEBACK FILMED IN HAWAII.

With the success of DTNA I dont see how they could miss the chance to do another summer comeback

DTNA better return to Melon top 10 again. It deserves to be the CBE of the summer

so far it's 99% online

So then offline stores either havent been included or wont be included or all sales from TR will just say Online sales. We just have to wait and see I guess

More than 4000 suddenly, maybe cause of tower records starts to reflected towards hanteo

Yup, this is what we think as well. We just dont know if this data is all of TR or just one batch. Only time will tell since 4k doesnt seem to match up with our stats on Oricon.

Yup seems like all the dots add up for TR to now be inputted. We dont know if all the numbers today were from offline and online purchases. It could be that over time we see these surges until all is added fullly. Lets wait and see.

is 900 considered a surge?

Doesnt necessarily have to be today, it could have been in the past few since their preorder was from before. Also 900 could be a surge if their previous daily sales were much lower.

It still hasn’t been added. The whole mess of YoY bulk orders from Ktown4u taking ages to be reflected has made me doubtful of bulk orders from Ktown4u, lol.

Can those 4,5k sales of Fancy You be from Tower Records since they’ve been selling only in the hundreds the past few days?

They might be, if there has been a surge of BlackPink albums as well then we should know for sure. Since both released at the same time.

They had a whole sixteen 

Sixteen had pretty low ratings overall, also going by first week sales there was no hype behind Twice. The few sales we managed to get the only thing that gave Twice a start was a bit of public curiousity to see what JYPE would bring out but then even in the first day they almost fell away. Twice was the reason Ooh Ahh did well and Ooh Ahh was the reason Twice did well

Hmmm somehow I never notice this, ULs for the top 10 position at least looks pretty normal to me.

And I'm not sure abt the 'SK not using Melon as much', since we have a couple of songs with 1M-1.2M+ ULs just from this past two months alone. So even if Melon user is actually decreasing, it should be a really small/insignificant decrease imo.

You are definitely right in the sense that lower ULs doesnt seem to be attributed to just a trend of less use on Melon. But I guess its time to grab some data. No point in just taking my word at face value is there?

But the sad thing is I only have data on the top 10 melon ULs from the crash onwards. Since the crash, or at least the thursday after, ULs on average went down ~50k. The median on the week of the crash was roughly 547k. However now it is 487k. This is with a downwards trend since then. That is a 10% change... pretty drastic. We can claim it is just traffic and there were more high profile releases prior... but wait... didnt we have a huge release come out just this week? In fact we have had many huge releases from groups who are known for their ability to retain large ULs for months. There are also rising Indie artists who in the past we have seen would garner large ULs as well.

I want to have data from before the break. But all I have are values of KTL, Bom, and other groups so I havent got the ability to support my arguement. However the trend is pretty clear since then. The weirdest part for me is that we are approaching summer. Generally speaking this is when ULs are supposed to be on the rise.

TLDR; no proof, just ULs are on a downward trend and we arent sure why. Especially with summer coming in.

The 50% dream managed to stay alive all this time. Now that I have no expectations as IZone, Red Velvet, and BlackPink all have great sales as well I feel even more proud of Twice for managing to pump out all those releases. They work harder than I could ever imagine.

What happen?

After the crash a few weeks ago ULs have been oddly low across the entire site. Then the random ups and downs in random songs. It seems like Melon's chart is havinf trouble identifying users. But thats just a hypothesis. SK may just not be using Melon as much.

I dont think it is fair to compare fancy to Twice's previpus releases since Melon has been acting up.

I cant wait to see the number jump. Im expecting at least 15k.

Hey Pepper, I was thinking, would it be easier to make a new table for the new Gen and just construct a piechart from that? I tried fiddling around but couldnt manage to filter the chart directly.

This Dahyun with That Sana. You all know the one.

Twice is officially ebtering their experimental eras. I hope Once are ready for the ride we will be going on

Twice's trajectory is true beautiful. I still remember Cheer Up era when we were trying to guess TT's performance and then KK. Cant believe they continued to grow

 

The OP has been updated with the latest daily data. 

 

As a side note, all VIP tickets for TWICE's concert in Mexico City are now sold out. Yours truly managed to snag a Hi-Touch ticket just before they ran out completely, blessed by Jesus.

Congrats! Hace fun at the concert!

They couldnt have told me earlier Now shipping is gonna suck

Sana might as well be the sun brightening all our days up like that
