the main reason itzy's mv views severly dropped is because JYPE is no longer using ads to increase views for itzy. the fan thing is a reason but not the main one. good video :)

i would like to see your opinion video on itzy bc i kind of disagree (respectfully), while sneakers was not liked by international stans it has been their biggest comeback in korea, i think they are just doing fine with domestic fame but definitely have fallen off regarding international fame

ITZY!!!

regarding ur 3rd point, the reason for shorter songs is for money and I agree 100% percent. BUT that is very short sighted of these companies. I see that there are certain groups/companies that embrace the short song concept bc they are here just to make money and dont care about the fans or idols. What these companies dont see is the $$$ from streaming is very small comparative to the $$$ that can be maid by touring. the groups/companies that you see that has adopted the short song concept, have not really tour and are still banking on streaming for revenue. BUT will fans go see NJ or LSF and paid over exaggerated/inflated prices for a concert that is barely 2 hours long including time to interact with fans and breaks. Look at IVE current tour, they are selling out venues for their very first tour and their concert is almost 3 hrs, and so far no has really complained about the ticket prices bc the fans are getting what they are paying for. FOR NJ or LSM to pull off a 3 hr concert they basically have to play their whole discography, have individual solo performances for each member and AND add about 45 mins of filler time, and top of that ... we a;ll know how HYBE loves top jack up prices and screw the fans. (sorry for the long rant)

wonyoung is my ult bias and i agree seeing a picture of her actually got me into kpop as a whole but her work ethic has kept me a stan of hers
