BP ain't releasing a mini, just a typical YG double title-track release
also, I think the whole showcase is 30 mins? Not sure.

Gosh, can you imagine how they're feeling right now? 
They've been training for approximately 6 years, they were basically kids. They managed to survive multiple line-up changes and cuts and YG's ******** of non-stop delaying, hiding from fans and cameras 24/7
It must be so overwhelming for them

can I take a quick poll in this thread from y'all?
on a scale of 1 to 3 (1 being least, 3 being most), how popular is k-pop in your country?
I live in the USA and tbh I think that kpop is a 2 in popularity here, I once saw BTS on the itunes top 100. not to mention didn't EXO sell out the prudential centre the other day?

I still really don't get the point of having a showcase so much earlier than
the release of the song but I guess it's better than not having one at all

or for anyone to release at 8 PM
or for anyone to release the songs + possibly MVs 5 hours after the showcase stream

1 popularity, in general
but I DO encounter it now more than ever. Whiny fan girls at college, and sometimes
I hear KPop instrumentals being used in ads on the radio/TV, etc

I see a lot of talks about the groups that are basically done and nobody mentions SNSD.
Aren't they just sticking together to boost solo activities at this point? They don't have japanese releases anymore and probably won't have a comeback in Korea so soon.

There's about 10 k-poppers in my Sixth Form, but they're probably the only ones in the country, so 1.

I'd say 2 but it's still not that popular in Japan. people know of it but don't really listen to it
popularity: 1
but because it's known and comparing it to other western countries: 2
1-3 is rly restricted

No, they're touring in Japan (?) right now, and there's a TTS comeback & SeohyunxYuri single being released soon.

Sometimes it seems like kpop isn't even a 2 in Korea.

gaon begs to differ, unless gaon charts are a joke in SK or something (like how the billboard japan hot 100 is to japan)

I'm still kind of confused as to how many MVs we are exactly getting? 2? 3?
