Joga 1,315 Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 Their last groundbeaking hit was Growl, which was almost 5 years ago, and even that is outsold by sleeper hits like Spring Day Why can't SM get a smash hit anymore? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NINI 16,268 Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 What's a national hit..? A hit that pretty much everyone knows in the country, young and old people. They know the chorus and the dance. It doesn't have to do only with numbers -- If that was the case there would be way more national hits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WonderTwice 3,518 Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 Isn't Red Flavor a hit though? a summer hit equivalent to wonder girls why so lonely summer hit last year not a national hit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joon 8,222 Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 Red Flavor though? It may not be a “national hit†but I don’t think any idol song really was this year. It was the year of soloists. But if you consider Spring Day one then RF can be in the conversation as well, just saying... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clover. 10,048 Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 ''Why can't SM get a smash hit anymore?'' They got smash hits tho? National hits are a different thing. But you have ''I'' by Taeyeon, ''Rain'', Kyuhyun's ''At Gwanghwamun'', Red Velvet's ''Red Flavor''. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joga 1,315 Posted December 17, 2017 Author Share Posted December 17, 2017 It was 2013 and we are in 2017 now. Good morning, you probably just woke up but it's been almost 5 years. digitals have barely increased from 2013 to 2017 in fact, all over the world the digital market has all but crashed south korea is an outlier in the sense their digitals have increased by maybe 5% these are stats from sources such as the IFPI btw, not my opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
