You might think: They are probably just strong on Apple Music!! What about Spotifyㅋㅋ

Global Spotify

US Spotify

1. Why are you bringing up other idols radomly like htat? BTS, Jungkook, Blackpink, NewJeans….

2. Ok, then just be #1 by yourself….

3. Why are they getting hate here?

4. Their live encore was way too shocking… Since they are HYBE rookies, I was interested in them but was disappointed

5. It’s fine as long as they start practicing their singing now

6. It’s true that it’s an impressive record.

7. Okㅋㅋ

8. They can’t even sing their own song but their company is doing well

9. So they also have results-bugs after them

10. Who cares about their Spotify results when the general public will only know about them if they improve their skills
