[NETIZENBUZZ] RIIZE’S FIRST WEEK SALES THAT HAVE BEEN REDUCED TO 1/10 ㄷㄷㄷ

How does this even make sense?

Even if it’s a repackage album, other singers usually decrease by 20~30% but how can you be reduced to a tenth? Meanwhile here have been many complaints about the fact that the sales figures for SM artists on Hanteo are excessively high compared to their Circle sales.
How can the sales figures exceed the shipment numbers?
Is that why Hanteo is monitoring things so strictly?

Still I just can’t wrap my head around this. This makes me skeptical of SM’s sales until now

It’s because from the very beginning, they were too f*cking ambitious to aim for the million seller title with their debut album so they started doing ddaengyeo (t/n: adding future potential sales from fansigns into current sales). How can a rookie hit a million right from their debut? Especially when they’re not from a survival show?

Honestly if they really sold over 1.2M copies, they can easily sell 500K right now, but isn’t 160K a bit severe?

The reality of an so-called “A-list” idol

Even the SM cheonjis don’t believe SM’s physical sales ㅋㅋㅋ

If you had enough money to create negative virality campaign for 1.4 billion, you should’ve just bought RIIZE’s albums instead ㅠㅠ

SM online PR rep: 

Hello! Since yesterday afternoon, some photos of the truck protest in front of the HYBE building have been posted in certain communities, and it seems to have made it onto NewsPic as well. However, I don’t think it has been shared on Theqoo, Instiz, or cafes.
