with regards to a discussion here before, i was a bit curious, so i made a graph to compare the digital index of Twice's 2018 releases with a "few" of the songs that were certified for 100M streams

The last points on the graphs are their digital index on the month before they were certified. so, based on the graphs, we can infer that a song needs to cross at least 750M digital index to be certified for 100M streams. if anyone's curious about the digital index of the songs before they were certified,
Loco, Hwasa - Don't Give it to Me 763,869,532 on December; certified in January
Chungha - Roller Coaster 742,294,534 on October; charted out of top 100 in November; certified in December
Bolbbalgan4 - Travel 764,974,094 on October; certified in November
Paul Kim - Every Day, Every Moment 768,789,468 on October; certified in November
Mamamoo - Starry Night 769,941,157 in October; certified in November
Momoland - Bboom Bboom 766,968,747 in July; certified in August
based on the graphs, DtNA is currently performing just as well as Don't Give It to Me and Starry Night. likewise, i think DtNA should hit 750M digital index (aka 100M streams) in the 2nd week of February and would likely be certified platinum in March.
Yes or Yes is still too early to tell, but if it keeps up its current graph, it should likewise be certified platinum within 8 months after release (should be certified in July).
What is Love currently has an average of 20M digital index per month. if it can keep up this kind of digital index, it should be certified around June to August. If it falls too far down the top 200, it might be impossible for WiL to be certified platinum.
wow you put in that work!! thanks for this it was helpful

so, important stuff we need to remember in this thread:
the focal length of a camera lens can DRAMATICALLY change the way someone looks. look at these pictures.


notice how short focal lengths make the jaw/chin look extremely slim and the nose looks twice as big.
large image


this is why we need to be careful comparing selfies to photoshoot pictures. they are taken with a COMPLETELY different lens.
I'm not making this post to call out anyone in particular, but because its easy to forget the influence a camera lens has on someone's face.
also: this is why some of us feel like we turn out so ugly in photos even though we look fine in real life. short focal lengths screw everyone over lol
holy shit.... the difference is astonishing

I'd say it's something like:
Cheer Up
TT
Like OOH-AHH
Dance the Night Away (*so far week by week, but still too early to tell)
LIKEY
Heart Shaker
Knock Knock
YES or YES (*so far week by week, but still too early to tell)
What Is Love?
SIGNAL
People tend to believe that KK was TWICE's most successful song from 2017, but LIKEY and HS outperformed in terms of longevity in both, Gaon and Melon.
I agree with this. People place KK higher solely cause of its initial success but Likey's longevity was a lottttttt better
although I think YOY is still too early to rank. based off of the 10 week mark I would rank it higher though (with likey) but we need to see how it will do in the upcoming weeks as well because if we looked ONLY at likeys first 10 weeks it would be bottom 3 lol. we need the big picture

I don't think that Jennie got anything done
Unsure about Tzuyu
However I agree with Joy ! Her facial structure went from a 100 to a 10, she probably shaved her cheekbones or something. Weight loss doesn't explain what happened to her face.
Unsure about Jihyo but I do think that she gets fillers in her jaw and chin
Jihyo: Her jawline seems sus but predebut (before weight gain) she had the same jaw. So I guess she's natural. But I think she might get a little chin filler.
Joy: She might have had minimal eyelid/nosetip work. Not enough good pictures predebut to tell. Maybe jaw botox to shrink the muscle? But def not a jaw shave imo. She went from having a double chin to being quite skinny so that big change is understandable.
Jennie: Def natural. It's easy to tell when she has no makeup on & you compare to her as a kid/predebut. She lost a lot of weight since leaving NZ.
Tzuyu: Also def natural. Like Jennie, it's easy to tell when she has no makeup & you compare to her as a kid/predebut. Only change in her face is slight maturing. And unlike some other Twice members, I don't think she gets fillers or botox whatsoever. I do think she's had skin whitening injections though.
interesting thanks for this guys!!! I love how I can come into this thread and ask questions because majority of the people here don't think of PS as some type of taboo so we can discuss these things without people getting offended for whatever reason.

Idols that I’m curious about whether or not they got work
1) Jihyo. I know she lost a lot of weight but some of her features don’t look the same. If she did get work her surgeon did a great job at making it subtle
2) joy. I know she got veneers but aside from that what else is there?
3) jennie
4) tzuyu
The last two honestly seem natural to me.... but I know fillers and ps is inevitable in this industry so I wouldn’t be surprised
What do you guys think? Do you think they’ve gotten things done and if so what
-
was hoping YOY could hold on melon top 10 for one more week but it most likely won't happen... I guess 10 weeks is their lucky number now lol which is amazing. imagine having multiple songs say in the top 10 for that many weeks oof

Interesting thanks for explaining! For me I can tell when momo or sana get Botox/fillers but I havent been able to tell with the rest of twice. nayeons face does tend to look swollen from time to time now that I think of it but I never really noticed a change. The facial augmentation fillers you mentioned could be a possibility though (I would get that if I had the money tbh lol)Her cheeks are naturally full yes but if she is getting them, my guess is that she’s getting them preemptively, since we all lose volume in our cheeks as we age especially women. This is a really really general guess, but I think she might’ve gotten facial augmentation fillers to align her jaw and spot concentrate her cheeks’ fullness to get a slimmer more oval shape. Her face looks broader to me in 2016. The swelling that she sometimes exhibits could also be Botox or simply lack of sleep, idk.

Wait this is from an earlier discussion but what fillers do you guys think nayeon has gotten? Her cheeks have always looked natural to me honestly aside from her nosejob I didn’t think she got anything else done but I usually don’t realize these things until someone points it out first

Maybe some fillers she looks a bit tight but aside from that she’s fine

Although I don’t like RBB the mini album is red velvets best mini album. I can ignore the title track because of how amazing the bsides are

Yeah I neee to remind myself that what they have to say is irrelevant and they’re all hateful people but ugh it just hurts seeing them say these things about the nicest sweetest people.... I’ll try my best to just ignore it from now on I shouldn’t let them get to meNothing good comes from those pages, and it's not worth it to check those comments out. People are just disgusting and not worth paying attention to. Of course sometimes I also get curious and do check those out, but at the end you are only going to regret it.

Nate being ugly about jeongyeon again.. I’m baffled at how these braindead idiots didn’t even bother to watch the video
also it’s so evident how certain fandoms are the ones leaving these hate comments... I’m not petty enough to call people out but they couldn’t be more obvious.

Also sometimes a summer song might possibly rise back up again during the summer time too. Either way DTNA has held her ground for so long and so well. I legit thought it would plummet once summer was over.
IA.
SAME. it is literally the 3rd best performing idol group song this year. thats insane considering its a summer song and was only promoted for a week
-
40s is arguably the starting point of songs when falling (at least in melon), although we'll have to see next week if it's really gonna fall
well there will be an influx of boy group bsides next week (exo cb) so I would wait until january or so to see
idk its holding up well to me rn its just that there have been many new releases that are pushing it down but for a lot of these releases I think they should be dropping relatively soon which will help dtna climb back
-
Dance The Night Away has start to die on Gaon... I'm sad
Huh? It’s 44 on the digital chart and 42 on download.....
-
Not the biggest fan of the song but the mv made me teary eyed lol. Made me realize how important twice are to me
#6 on melon is pretty good will be interesting to see if it rises or not
-
The fact that they keep giving her fillers while shes on promotion break is truly worrying tbh, those photos are from october but she didnt look much better yesterday at MAMA, let alone that they are bringing back outdated makeup styles from 2011 that dont even flatter all the members' faces + ugly hairstyles



vivi girl nooooooooo
those cheek injections rarely look good or natural.... like I can only name like 3 idols that look better with them than without the rest look unnatural even after it sets in.

not sure what to expect about TBIED charting. at the end of the day its a song for ONCES and ONCES only but it would be nice if it charts well especially since the girls aren't expecting it to. it would be a nice surprise for them
CU is that bitch. still no idol group song stayed in top 10 as long as it did since 2016 right? or LS already broke that?
LS broke it but honestly impact wise... very evident that CU is a lot bigger.
I guess its a similar case with how gee was song of the decade despite lies by big bang charting in the top 10 for over a month longer than it-

But did they ever use music not in the song as background music of a MV teaser?
It isn’t an MV teaser tho they called it “ONCE teaser†which is why I think this
-
For some reason I don’t think that’s the song playing? Idk why
I think it was just a video teaser
-
from what i noticed, stream certification needs around 740M digital index. if they maintain 10M per week, they'll reach the total in 10 weeks. but i think it's more of 15-20 weeks
oh I thought it would be a lot less than 10 weeks I guess I underestimated it.
the song just needs to continue to be as stable as it is rn and if TBTIED does well it'll help dtna also rise and gain some more index points as well
