BLACKPINK's new album records record high first-day sales! Far surpassing IZ*ONE's record
It appears that the first day sales of BLACKPINK's 2nd mini album "Kill This Love" broke the record held by IZ*ONE and broke the all-time sales record for a K-Pop girl group.
The reason why IZ*ONE broke the record by beating TWICE is because the popularity of K-Pop is gaining momentum locally as well as overseas. The greater the popularity, the more likely the record will be broken.
In other words, as the K-Pop fan base increases, the number of popular girls will also increase, but many say that RED VELVET will be the second most popular group in Korea after TWICE. I can't find any other girls with such a powerful fan base.
However, I don't feel like RED VELVET can break IZ*ONE's record.
I thought that TWICE, which has overwhelming popularity in Japan and Korea, would make a comeback and surpass the record set by IZ*ONE.
So, I was a little surprised to see BLACKPINK break their record.
I know that they are popular on a global level. However, its popularity within South Korea was unclear. There are some, but I thought they were as popular as RED VELVET and GFRIEND.
However, BLACKPINK was gaining popularity from all over the world. BLACKPINK's popularity is rapidly increasing due to their TV appearances in the US and their appearance at Coachella 2019, one of the world's largest outdoor music festivals in California. This popularity probably helped it break records in domestic sales.
Celebrities such as Josephine Skriver, Ariana Grande, Sabrina Carpenter, Will Smith and his wife, and James Corden have confessed to being BLINKs. This is truly a girl crush in her element.
BTS has also climbed the ladder, but BLACKPINK is even higher than that. He has risen to the world stage with lightning speed.
