While Korean technology might be cream of the crop, they use software that is oooooooooooooooooooold. Funnily enough, it's like a mirror to their society as a whole. They advanced so fast with infrastructures and general things, but some of how they think/act is still old fashioned.

For menial tasks like banking, or ordering food, you NEED to have ActiveX software (apparently it's for security reasons but that's BS as hackings/compromises to bank accounts still occur), which is Windows only. Thus why Mac is compatible for most Koreans.

yeah i have seen an EYK video about it

Yass sis. Spread their bible

Pretty sure Google as a search engine is a non-factor, with Naver and Daum being the major resources for web search.

It's funny this is case, given Korea's home technology as well as other things is above and beyond other parts of the world as you said, and the fact they have like the fastest internet in the world apparently.

So we have battle of the rookies 2....instead of it being AKMU and 15&, its AKMU vs RV. Who will win? discuss.

AKMU are digimon so they'll probably bulldoze everything and everyone in terms of digital charts and music show wins. I hope their song is good, like Melting-level good rather than 200%-level. Still, I feel like Ledubelbe are gonna slay a bit too even if they're only a fraction of AKMU's popularity.

[Jack!]

Yeah, I think you know AKMU are going to demolish Red Velvet in sales and wins. I understand why though. AKMU's schtick so far is that they fully compose their own music and Korean GP likes their charm and the fact they're siblings. Compared to Red Velvet who would be "just another idol group", that people apparently still can't tell the difference between.

I couldn't care less. Imma [hopefully] enjoy both their comebacks and hope they both get bigger and more successful

[joshsquat]

Did any of you really think that Red Velvet was going to sell more than AKMU?

Same, like people care way too much about sales and what not, I'm so glad I'm not obsessed with that.

[Guero]

Joy is the only one I can pick apart from the four.

Nah, hence why nobody said they would.



You're right though, sales aren't everything. Hopefully both rookie groups succeed. Akmubelbe hwaiting!

"sales arent everything"

well i hope u better all remember those words next time u are going to shade a group o praise your faves....

Red Velvet only debuted 2 months ago. Of course their sales are going to be weaker. They are still building a fan base.

And y'all need eye tests if you can't tell them apart by now. Wendy, Seulgi and Joy have distinctive looks. Irene looks a bit generic because of the PS but just look for the miserable face and it will probably be her.

That being said, Wendy's voice alone slays everyone in SM and YG. Eventually Korea will see the light. The new NGG is coming.

Sales aren't everything, but it's certainly nice when your favourite artists sell well and you get to bask in it. It's rare I get to though.

[SlayingOnTheEarth]

I'm content with quality tbh, but I can't help but release my talons with sales sometimes

I feel like RV won't deliver it, as it's kinda copy & paste*, but I'm still anticipating, because you never know!


*I KNOW IT'S A COVER/REMAKE

[Rominho.]

Henry's song sounds better in japanese, A Pink was really good as well.

[Jack!]

I only just recently noticed it's Seulgi in the Fantastic video.

[Jack!]

Excited for Red Velvet!

I wish A-Jax would come back. Insane and Snake are flawless.
