What do you think of nct latinamerica?

bad. I'm gonna post again what I wrote in the other thread.

 

I don't know how things work in other places, but in Brazil (Latin America), foreign idols like Enrique Iglesias, Thalia, Il Divo and Laura Pausini tried to release songs in Portuguese and any of these songs ended up in the charts. Enrique Iglesias released a full album in Portuguese, but it floped.

 

I don't think Latin America will embrace Asian artists singing in Portuguese/Spanish. We like groups like BTS, Super Junior, GOT7, Shinee, SNSD bc of their style, their ships; bc they're KPOP.

 

UNIQ Seungyoun lived in Brazil for some years, many Brazilian fans died when they knew he speaks Portuguese, but it didn't make Brazilian UNIQ fandom bigger than BTS or GOT7 fandom, for instance.

 

 

 

 

Here in Brazil we had our own KPOP group trained in Korea, the members were all Brazilians and they were all boys that used to do covers of KPOP groups, but it flopped after a while; they even had their own on line reality show.

it's waaay too early to say pretty much anything.


anyways, let's speculate:


if they choose non-asians it will alienate kpop's latin fans


the region lacks a good entertainment ecosystem, tv shows are not particularly suitable for the things kpop usually displays. most countries don't have proper music rankings (unless you count spotify as a valid ranking system), digital piracy is rampant.


i guess they could cast asian latinamericans ( if you add the asian population of brazil, argentina and peru you get a couple of millions).


i wonder how they're going to deal with the more liberal (sexually mainly) cultures of latam.


are they going to have portuguese speaking members? spanish and portuguese are really similar, but different enough to need a lusophone if they want to crack brazil's markets.

We don't have many options for promoting music here in Brazil, and the ones we have, someone so flop would hardly get there, and they basicaly invite the same artists that have many years of carreer over and over. And maybe some new ones that have a hit.

So whatever they try to do here, ain't gonna work.

sounds interesting but i doubt they would last too much  .... i don't konw about any multicultural idol group that actually worked well 

by multicultural i mean with members from outside asia and an obvious foreigner looks

 

but alex from rania give us hope i guess

 

 

I dunno but I've heard that Lunafly does well in Latin America, or maybe I'm wrong? 

 

they became a bit more relevant after they released a full album in spanish but they're not really popular .... specially compared to bigbang, every group from sm , bts , cnblue and a bunch of actors fandoms, even older boybands like ss501 or mblaq are more famous

Like some coments stated, it will be interesting to see how this will work out since the music market in latin america is different.

 

Moreover, I wonder if SM did a research about the cultural differences between Asia and Latin America. Besides, music piracy is strong here, unless where I am, so I wonder what tactics it will create to face that obstacle. That and many other stuff.

 

So, overall, interesting move but I'm not sure if it will totally work. (There are many points needed to be reveleaded)

 

P.D:

 

Will they be able to top this hits:
