isn't it weird that some of the nations most liked boy groups kind of flopped this year?

[ethereal]

 

 

 

and before you go "they didn't flop!1!!11", let me explain

 

1. they both had subpar songs that were not up to their usual standards

2. didn't stir as much international interest as they usually do

3. didn't stir as much korean interest as they usually do

4. fell off charts fast.

5. lacking in album sales and digital (compared to previous releases)

 

 

is it a conspiracy?  did girls really take over this year (besides bb obviously)?

[ErikaEGO]

I mean, it just comes with age ( except big baloney ) and coming from a 2nd or 3rd tier company that doesn't get much exposure

[Cabbage.Boi]

Big Bang did quite well actually...

[Hyun.]

I love BEAST but YeY was pretty bad.

 

[night vale.]

Cube, for whatever reason, decided to give Beast something that fell into the trend of "bad summer party songs 2015." Seriously, I can't remember most of the comebacks from May-September this year. Bad timing, even worse sound (the song was ruined by the chorus), and it just wasn't memorable in the least.

Cinderella is a jam.

YeY was okay. Didn't wind up liking it/listening to it as much as I thought I would when it came out.

[Universe]

Let's just ignore YeY ever happened

[ピンク�クマ]

Who's CNblue

[coward]

2pm too...

 

it really seemed like a year for the rookies/few year old groups

[seoIhyun]

Rookies and Girl Groups took over this year (besides EXO and Big Bang)

BEAST did not flop tho? They hit #1 on melon, won 4 times... won (once again) with their prerelease...

 

[codean]

Please put the official MV instead of CJEN

 

 

And I dont think they flopped hard,

[Acapella]

I actually liked Gotta Go To Work better than Yey

[Joga]

Falling trend. Its going to have to happen for the new groups to get any support.

[allsmiles]

the only groups that i know have titles as nations boy group are exo and bigbang and they didnt flop..

 

but yea..those that you mentioned (cnblue, beast) and also 2pm releases this year didn't meet the expected popularity it thought it would have

 

edit: lolllll why am i getting negged cause i named exo as one of the nations group as of these days? ok granted they might not be called that and only bigbang has that title from the netizens ...but common guys we gotta admit..at this day and age.. they are one of the top in popularity . as a huge vip i accept that exo is up there now popularity wise..why wont some of you just accept it

Big Bang, yeah...not Exo, stop that you're offending my Country.

[Bitchfit]

it was the year of girl groups

[Swirl900]

Beast had a comeback this year?

did you not read my explanation tbh? compared to how they usually do, they flopped.

[Skibop!!]

Did they do as well as they did previously? no. but they didn't flop.

They have kept up with their tradition, prerelease tracks winning since On Rainy Days, and continuing to win since their first comeback.

if they didn't make the charts at all then that would be considered a flop

 

 

you can't compare the flawlessness that was TIME to this album, of course it pales in comparison. But they still did good.

[Crescent]

It's the worst song in the mini imo

[Arrogant Spooky]

even girls generation flopped at some point.

I guess you have to do it a few times in your career but then rise back like the pheonix
