  1. Does anyone remember what happened that caused that spike during the 3rd quarter of 2016?  The former BG leaving is what caused that spiral sometime in December, but I'm so curious about that spike.  It seems to have happened around Sept/Oct until almost December just before BtoB released New Men, and around Sungjae's casting in Goblin.  I don't remember anything that could have caused that.

    The struggle seems so real the whole 2017, with only the time of "Movie" and "Missing You" shining any light, well into the 1st quarter of 2018.  BtoB's concerts and the relative success of "Movie" after the former BG left got Cube out of that steep dive.  BtoB's comebacks always provided semi-hikes in 2017.  Staying high since about the time the groups had their first releases of 2018 into the announcement of the joint Cube concert, even with the many controversies, really shows how resilient Cube seems to have been for almost a year now.  The younger existing and potential new group, especially with LKL making his move in China, and what the surprisingly-for-nonMelodies stable income still being milked out of the still-out-of-the-army BtoB members is propping up Cube stock price.  The combination of potential and real existing income is hard to deny; without one of them, the price would have been severely affected, especially after the "main artist" left.  There definitely was temporary effect every time a controversy cropped up, but Cube was able to deflect using comeback, CF, concert, or even casting announcements.  I just wish people would stop overlooking and even minimizing BtoB's stabilizing contribution to all this.  They were accused of being fed by a former BG even when their income was already higher than every artist except that group, though approaching that highest earner.  Now, people are attributing the spikes to another artist (a big part rightly so, but...).  Potential is important because it influences perception, and thus causes spikes like the one happening now; but stability coming from real and proven income has to prop that up as well.  Like seriously, the rally from November to January has nothing to do with Changsub and Minhyuk's solos?   Sorry for what seems like a rant; but sometimes BtoB gets overlooked and underestimated, even ignored, that it becomes tiring.

     

    Oh boy, I'm gonna get negged again.

  2. Now I want them to release a song like this.  Something just really fun and made up of tongue-twisters that don't mean anything, including Sami's myang myang. plus a sprinkle of a real phrase in different world languages.   Melodies would love singing and dancing along with it in a concert, with fanchant of animal sounds.

    Hello, Melody. This is Btob Changsub. Actually today is the day i shaved my hair. By the time this video release, i think i already manly enlisted and start my life in military. All these while, long.. to say it's long time, --

    7 years is indeed long, but to say it's short, it is really short, but for being together w us all these while, thank you so much. I pray, i hope, i want u to continue be with us together in the future. Let's always be together. Im sure there's some of u that cry while watching--

    --this, and im sure some of u smiles too. Don't cry, your head will hurt. Also, since i will come back soon, please take care. Me too will return as man. Take care and i'll be back. Please stay healthy. Salute!

  4. Good job, whoever the Cube fashion coordis are; if each group has different teams, they seem to be working together, no clashing.  I thought it would be difficult to delineate the two Cube GGs, but I think they manage to do so with the way they dress them, with CLC's being more mature and (G)I-dle more playful.  The wardrobe for CLC's last 2 comebacks and it seems this one, are classy and high fashion.  Though the group was not able to do 2 comebacks, they at least seem to be well-supported in their wardrobe budget.  They did Gucci last time, now it looks Burberry~ish.  Minhyuk's wardrobe for his solo also seem to be stepping slightly away from BtoB's too, no choice with Minhyuk's title being not very BtoB; though thankfully, not too much.
