The way 127 alone makes nearly 40% of sales for SM but gg stans are always salty. Like yes, RV is super successful but NCT doesn't need their money at all.

And? That doesn't mean NCT doesn't earn their OWN money with sales/tours/concerts/merchandising and need other SM artists' money.

SM spends the most on NCT yet they make the least revenue as shown in the graphs. 

They also make terrible profits:

NCT127
NEO CITY TOUR (9 cities/10 shows)
City National Civic, San Jose: 5,812 (100%) (2 shows)
Microsoft Theater, Los Angeles: 6,534 (96%)
Rosemont Theatre, Rosemont: 4,199 (100%)
Smart Centre, Sugar Land: 6,294 (100%)
Prudential Center, Newark: 5,622 (100%)
Coca-Cola Roxy, Atlanta: 3,197 (100%)
Watsco Center, Miami: 5,206 (100%)
The Theater, Sugar Land: 6,066 (100%)
Comerica Theater, Phoenix: 4,725 (100%)

Total gross: $6,791,395
Average gross: $679,139
Total attendance: 47,655
Average attendance/concert: 04,766

vs

RED VELVET
REDMARE TOUR (5 cities/6 shows)
Civic Auditorium, Pasadena: 5,986 (100%) (2 shows)
The Theatre, Dallas: 3,509 (96%)
NJPAC, Newark: 2,780 (100%)
The Filmore, Miami: 2,148 (100%)
Chicago Theatre, Chicago: 3,453 (100%)

Total gross: $2,594,120
Average gross: $432,353
Total attendance: 17,876
Average attendance/concert: 02,979명

 

Anyways, I obviously don't actually think NCT isn't turning a profit but SM's been investing more in this stupid NCT48 system for way longer than they have had to with any of their other groups for them to do well. And I'm mainly talking about 127 and these NCT *Year* projects. fyi I stan NCT Dream who probably make more net profits than the other NCT groups.

According to that NCT had both more total and more average gross than RV, also 100% of attendance in majority of the shows tho? I don't get your point. They also have big physical sales and precisely 127 is the subunit that has sold nearly 1M with a single album and the only that had a breakout song still charting in the 500s of melon after 6 months, so comparatively they're doing better than Dream. Just say you're bitter about them and go, but they are doing fairly well by themselves to need anyone's money.

RV made more per person and had 3/4 of 127's attendance despite having half the number of shows. 

LMAO 127 hit nearly 1 million with a full album with three versions whereas Dream sold almost as much with a mini with just 2 versions. 

Plus SM is obviously pushing stores to order 127 albums more since Dream actually sold more than them on Hanteo:

 

Plus Dream sold just as much with their Japanese album (no original singles and no Japanese versions of their songs) as 127 with their Japanese full album and mini despite 127 actually having original Japanese songs and Japanese versions of their songs.

If you want to talk about digital charting, Reload is literally the only NCT song to hit #1 on Melon real time. Weren't you the one who made such a huge deal about the Melon real time chart lmao.
