Joga 1,315 Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 This is a serious question, because/ I just read the old jyp vs new jyp thread. I am thinking about how 2PM so SO relevant, even before they had a hit song, they had hella fans and I remember seeing htem all around the internet before I even liked kpop. Its been a couple years but Got7 doesn't have that same effect? Is it JYP promotion orrr? What's going on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BadBadNotGood 11,616 Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 They still have a lot of fans though. Just not a hit song. Once they get one they'll sky rocket even more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yoonability 4,159 Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 Their music is the biggest problem, I think. There is no concept continuity, and often songs just aren't very good. Their rapper line is lacking as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lolipoptae 557 Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 I think GOT7 is more focus for international fan more and focus on tour ?!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldCottonAccount 3,332 Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 Dunno but nowadays people who stan boy groups 90% of the time either stan BTS or EXO. Probably the case in Korea too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haze 10,915 Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 Back home? For many reasons. Internationally, they're still solid and amongst the top boy groups who get the most attention internationally despite what they put out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

knick knack 9,413 Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 They're not unpopular though, they have some of the highest album sales among boy groups. They have fans, they just don't have public recognition and thats the case for most boy groups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rohan Kishibe 13,713 Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 Their music genres change too often and the title songs lack quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neo 6,950 Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 Boy groups now a days have a lot of prejudice going against them non of them really connect with the GP besides Big bang, Block B or BTOB mix that with that fact that they do not do typical Korean liked songs and a lot of their members are not Korean and there you go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
analyna 2,090 Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 Their music, it doesn't even have a signature sound yet. You would never tell the group who did A also did Hard Cary. The guys are good at variety they have talented members both vocally and in dancing. They have all they need but the music. Give them the right song,promote it well and they'll hit it big. They've been increasing their international fanbase like crazy though so something is working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moon Jellyfish 23,232 Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 Meh I feel like we discuss this every month. I'd be worried if their fan bases weren't growing but since they are, I'm not concerned that aren't as recognized as 2pm was on their peak period. Plus given the time and situations, I don't know if comparing the status of 2pm in their peak is fair. because they went from if you do to hardcarry its not If You Do was a major hit in Korea either. Given the fact that theirpre potential public friendly songs didn't equate to mega success, Idk what would give them that major hit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jcey 7,752 Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 Right now they are probably in Top 5 when it comes to sales of boy groups. They are popular enough . Everyone can't be #1. However they are doing better with every comeback and won shows already so i have high hopes for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueButterfly 326 Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 Got7 is popular, it's just not one of the "top" groups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tobe 5,061 Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 they are rising with each comeback tho. hardly a cause for concern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jem's 5,056 Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 they HAVE the fans tho, just look at their physical sales what they lack is public recognition and it's due to jyp not giving them a catchy and iconic song (but catchy song =/= good song, ppl pretending only good music sells are funny ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CandyCane23049 44,319 Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 Unpopular how? They have one of the highest album sales, and they've seen their most success with a song people seem to think is not them in Hard Carry and with their comeback before that in Fly. Do they have a "hit song" yet? No but t each comeback they do better and better internationally and domestically. This is the first comeback that silver ahgase's which is mostly I-fans can't even get fansign's or music show's or not all gold ahgase's which is the Korean fanbase can get in.

Gaudy 3,588 Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 Being honest it's their music but they still have a lot of fans internationally.. If they release that one hit song though they'll grow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haze 10,915 Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 because they went from if you do to hardcarry I'm not a fan of hardcarry, but it sure did outsell if you do by a large margin. Also, nothing changed digitally, as in ranks and charting. So it's not like they downgraded in results. And people are really outspoken about if you do, but did these same people even buy the MAD album during that era if they loved it so much? lol I loved if you do from them, but I just find it funny how people want them to go back to that concept when there wasn't that much support for it. Technically, Just right got them the most relevance amongst international fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redheart 7,440 Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 here we go again OH's comment on GOT7 are honestly starting to sound like a broken record, if you gonna hate at least find relevant reasons it's one thing that you personally don't like their music but it doesn't make it bad music please grow up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
