Rophie 968 Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Before you purchase your own Mr.Mr. mini-album, think: 1. Are you buying this because it's a quality mini-album and you enjoy it OR 2. I have been a fan of SNSD for a long time and have a strong bond with the group, but I'm not really feeling this album If you fit in the 2nd category then please do NOT buy the album, I hate to be the one to break it to you but the reality of the situation is S.M does not view the girls the same way we do. They see them as products and think that they need to cash in on them as much as possible before they inevitably lose their spot as the top girl group or "expire". That mindset will probably stay the same no matter what we do, HOWEVER, by not purchasing this album they will realize that Sones don't accept whatever is thrown at them. SNSD's album needs to be just as good if not better than EXO/TVXQ/SHINee's album, and if this album flops then they will realize it sooner rather than later. If you honestly want to see SNSD's music grow along with them then you need to start acting accordingly. P.S I'm not saying the album was horrible, it is just completely transparent of S.M to give everyone a quality album except for SNSD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rophie 968 Posted February 26, 2014 Author Share Posted February 26, 2014 I bought the album because I like 4/6 songs on it Their songs are fine, but you need to look at the bigger picture. Their album is mediocre, while most, if not all other albums S.M released were above average in terms of quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candy☆ 1,633 Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 If Sones don't buy the album then it might fail on charts, get less awards etc. and I'm pretty sure Sones care more for SNSD's reputation than getting better music at next releases. also because 2NE1 are promoting I doubt Sones would want to let SNSD lose. Just saying... it isn't about music anymore (not really sure it has ever been about music lol). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abra 40,910 Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 You might as well do it as it won't make a difference to the SNSD members. The amount they get per sold album/single is miniscule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People buy whatever they like, who are you to dictate their decision lol I created this thread as an eye-opener, so that people will realize it's ok not to buy an album if you're not a fan of the tracks despite the fact that you've been stanning them since debut.

김민주 16,324 Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 I find threads like this stupid. Do you really think Sones who planned on buying the album are now NOT going to after seeing this thread? And if anything there are hundreds of thousands of Sones and trust me when I say this thread won't even reach 1% of the total Sone population so...

abel 1,273 Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Thank you for your amazing contribution to this discussion ;DThank you for repeating what's been said 395728472 times by regular fans.

mgl 5,919 Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 If that were to happen, I'm sure there would be quite a few top groups that would suddenly collapse. I know what you mean, and yes the only way SM will take fans seriously is if they start talking with their wallets, but it's not that simple for a lot of fans since they want to see the group do well.

NickyGolightly 5,970 Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 If this album flops, wouldn't SM pay less attention to SNSD I don't think SM has the mindset of trying to please Fans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
