maidoan97 743 Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 I do know it's a way to support our bias, and I do it sometimes because everyone does it, but I don't get the point of watching the MV multiple times when you don't really want only to support your idols. It's a different story if you liked it so much that you replayed it. I mean, if people use it to determine popularity, shouldn't we leave the views as it is? I feel like this is like a war between fandoms instead I'm not very fluent in English so I hope you get my point I do know Inkigayo uses it as SNS points, but what I meant was, what's the real meaning of doing this? It's not the 'real' popularity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

night vale. 8,071 Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 YouTube views are considered part of social points on music shows so more views = higher chance of winning #1 for the week. So just like fans vote multiple times and stream digitally, it is considered kind of important. After promotions people just brag about the MV view increase Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
512955124 1,748 Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 I presume OP is saying she don't get the point of doing so after idols stop promoting that song. It is the same as those useless poll that everyone tries to make their bias win. I am 1 of those who watch some of my bias group mv everyday. I like to click on the comment section and it makes me happy to see new/potential fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

♡ adrianna_love ♡ 3,753 Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 YT views = SNS points too and I recalled recently that's the only area where Hyuna got slightly higher than SNSD recently in Inki I think... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonSone 30,138 Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 I understood you but in my case I watch my favorite group MV at least one time per day because I really love it. :D I do not download the MV. Therefore, I have to watch it in Youtube or other medium (but Youtube is prefereable of course). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nancy mcflurry 2,385 Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 Yep, out of every single user on OneHallyu and 7 billion+ people in the world, you are the only person who doesn't get the point of increasing YouTube views.

lovely_me 3,237 Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 Its both, points on MS but popularity war also.. My oppa/unni is more popular, see the YT views - stuff and sadly many think that low views means the music or group is flop and take it to bait.. So the fans just try to raise the views out if pride too and o/c for support too.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
