Crosins send trucks
so I've seen what's it for?

the hanbin push is just diabolical atp wdym he's getting double of taerae's lines..
I saw the gap between him and taerae like ouuu.....
Honestly taerae voice was kinda jarring during this whole album I think zb1 songs don't fit him that well but I think having a taeil like role of getting the high notes like gsb is what they should do
his lines were easily some of my favorite definitely not jarring
oh totally understand now why you guys say vocal tones is a subjetive thing bc i agree i also dislike taerae's tone he sounds like a frog slight shade
It is subjective yea
MV IS TRENDING NUMBER ONE IN KOREA
yayyyy this is late mb
The album wasn't cohesive cause no kpop albums is but it was coherent I think I would just organise the songs differently like the way they followed each other didn't make sense, my other criticism is that gsb last chorus was lacking something and seas mixing was really bad, other than that everything has been good to me
yea I mean taking out bada and yura with rearranged tracks it ain't too bad but I agree I feel like the last chorus could've been elevated but 🤦♀️🤦♀️ and yea badas mixing is fucking crazy

i only have ONE complaint and it's that they should've given ricky that 2nd gyuvin bit in good so bad like ok they can give him the rap but when he came back for more with the vocals like 10 seconds later i was like ???????
I was confused too 😭😭😭
even the haobin rap parts could have been given to ricky like damn they already got everything else let ricky have that one little thing
That ain't happening
damn yall want kenzie music but get mad when she does what she usually does 😅 ngl the moment we saw her in the credits we should have expected a pretty skewed distribution already
yea I knew that was happening but that doesn't stop anything plus the fact that wakeone has involvement in most of their production we can't say for sure idk
I get that Kenzie is a seasoned producer and many of her productions have a skew going on, but i dont understand this wave of people assuming that producers all have final say in line distributions in most if not all scenarios. That's literally just an assumption extrapolated from idek a few instances where that was more or less confirmed to be the case? But just bc it's sometimes true doesnt mean it's always true. I think people just run with this idea when it's convenient for them and bc it sounds logical if you turn off your brain and willingly forget that basically nothing in kpop is purely meritocratic. Plus the whole logic of the lines always going to who sounds the best doing them is also just bs, especially in songs where their tones are flattened in production to the point you can't recognize who's singing. Like every song's gonna have filler lines that literally anyone who isnt mute can sound 'good' on, yet somehow even those end up going to the same people. And well there's no point going line by line saying who would sound better or worse since it's subjective but producers or management definitely make some bad judgement calls and have biases unrelated to some mystical objectivity on what sounds good (not even singling out zb1 here, i have this thought listening to many groups).
I agree like everyone's just using this story to justify or make sense of the distribution when for sure wakeone still has the final say like we can't just end it at this when we discuss it doesn't stick
Am I the only one fully satisfied by this song like I didn't even look at line distribution and I'm actually Ricky biased? Tbf I usually Stan for the music but I didn't for zb1 obviously so I usually care but I thought this album was good so I didn't care
yea same I'm not rlly noticing the line distribution

no way hao really didnt get any lines in bada 😭
didn't listen to it yet but zang
Ricky and hao both had lines in the new parts
it's the layering and mixing that tripped people up for sure
Hao said he only had one line🤣
oh ok
it was just a tweet made up by Rosin as a joke. he never said that
why do these people want him to have 1 line so bad 😭
They really have PTSD..I hope the tour is fun and goes smoothly for them PLEASE
like bad if they didn't get these results they would've commit for sure but yea hope the tour is fun
Taerae on pc thanking us for streaming the song😭😭😭and Gunwook too😭😭😭😭
they so damn traumatized 😭
Waking up to read pre recording anecdotes is so fun I missed that😭😭I missed promo era
I MISSED ITTTTTT im going thru some rn cb era just makes everything more alive
However good news gsb is still charting and I just saw several tiktoks of the showcase doing very well specifically the ones of Ricky's center part in ktr that's king I'm sorry
oh pewiodddd
Unc is lying and Hao is not liking it 🤣 https://x.com/decemberhour/status/1828377262875648314

ok but apart from haobin everyone else has almost the same amount of lines they are in the 10s
Yea the disparity is way smaller with everyone else

this is my fav tt so far me thinkss
Same same
my fave is still crush (don’t throw tomatoes please) but this is the second
crush is my second favorite tt I get u
crush will forever piss me off because it had so much potential the instrumental is gorgeous, the lines were great but the had to ruin it with that pots and pans chorus for what
The chorus wasn't even the issue it was the shouty chorus on top ugh IDC IF I WAS IN CHARGE OF ZB1 ID STILL RELEASE IT!!!!
right like i hate the random OUOUOHHHH STFU
alright calm down
Is lotus gone for real? 😭

Why is our MV not trending while Jaehyun's is here? https://kworb.net/youtube/trending.html
don't ask me no stupid fucking question
it is trending #2 in sk and #7 in music
OH PEWIOD
it's trending in SK and US but for some reason, it didn't enter the Worldwide trending while Jaehyun's is there. I fear, the MV is disqualified to be listed like what happened to AOTM. Did we buy bot views too?
no bought views they ran ads 12 hours after release I think? which shouldn't disqualify since they are views but the mvs trending somewhere so 🤷♀️
This girl saying shes taught hanbin in 2016 and that she was the one who wrote the school report he posted woah
koreas school system is so interesting how was hanbin in middle school at the same time as me.. but wow this lady being an active riize fan fjjdjcnfnm
https://x.com/shbinist/status/1828058453061103967?t=FOPVKw1gWJ7i6xPgMGL84w&s=19 someone put this clip with where is my mind by pixies as background music plss
Can't see the post

Btw what did you think of road movie it seems to be hit or miss
it confused me listening to it the first time but I actually like it
Road movie is a required taste 😭 like I got so confused on my first listen but the more I listened the more I liked its weirdness it’s actually my most replayed song on the album rn
I listened like a hundred times more and it's in my top 3 now it's actually soooooo good
You get itttt finally an experimental zb1 song the instrumental is sooo good and the prechorus is beautiful (all the prechoruses in that album were tbh)
it's soooo good like it's my second favorite bside now we need another song like this yezgardddd
dance members need to do tiktok challenge for ktr I think it's gonna blow up
it would the choreo is finally lit enough we haven't gotten that kinda energy since crush
melon daily chart for first day is out for reference: in bloom (83), ul 69149 crush (108) ul 43242 feel the pop (180) ul 27790 good so bad (133) ul 29616 they were really kings during in bloom wow but this seems to line up with what we've been sensing, there's been a decline from crush but things are looking better than sweat/ftp eras. from ftp to now we haven't really seen an increase in gp interest but the fandom is more engaged for this cb
yea huge decline a scandal + 7 months no Korean cb definitely did them in but I'm glad they're doing better
I don’t think it’s a bad thing people think Kenzie orchestrated the shit line distribution 😶 likeeee I’d rather people be angry at a boogeyman they can’t interact with and think it’s outside of the company’s responsibilities then fans blame WakeOne and as a result try to boycott or not support the comeback in “protest” of it. Also, there wasn’t that many lines to start off with in the song - a lot of it is that heavily layered chorus or synths (this is a bit of stretch so I get if people disagree but I stand by my Kenzie opinion). Still, it sucks for Ricky and I do wish we heard more of his voice but he’ll get his lick back eventually. Not every member has to shine every come back and I’d still 100% rather have this song than any Feel the Pop clone even with the confusing distribution choices.
a truck being sent after this cc 😭😭😭 well it definitely redirected some blame but if people want to they'll get mad at whoever and it's true not everyone gets to shine which sucks but hey im taking it over that mess any day too
It was so bad when that MC asked who in the venue is a foreigner 😭😭 There was drama surrounding it and they made him say that and almost nobody raised their hand.
LMAOAOAOOOOOOO like the way nobody was talking to that guy
1361573829
We're charting at non zombie hours
genuinely shocked I thought we'd free fall out or drop to the 90s like I'm not even trynna be pessimistic LIKE THIS IS ACTUALLY VERY SURPRISING 😭😭
well we are freefalling now
more like a steady decline but they're withstanding the hardest hours to chart
Seeing in bloom’s chart streams and then with crush, they lost half like dang crush really hammered the,
crush not even the biggest thing
nah august and september was what killed the momentum i really think crush would have been received differently otherwise
They lost a good chunk but they were still liked and had a big fandom everything was over after that fateful day in January
crush wasnt even received thatt badly compared to ftp in kr, but it seems like it for intl fans since it got trolled a lot on stan twt and stuff. but they had so many fans during end of year awards to prove for it, its yhmah where kfans realised the willpower to stream dropped majorly. but i do think fans are fickle and with good promos i dont see why this song cant be popular its a good song
Sure fans disliked it but it did circles around good so bad in terms of numbers and everyone actually loves this release it wasn't that bad they def had boycotters but after the scandal and just the dhit show that followed kfans just stopped putting in the work 🤦♀️ I think we're getting some of that spark back tho hopefully it continues on
compared to in bloom, crush did terrible digitally . If sweat/gsb had been the 2nd comeback, they would have climbed higher but alas
I feel like everyone forgets debut hype is a thing crush wasn't a good 1st cb choice but in bloom was always going to be our peak
1361573433
So happy rn I feel like this promo period could go well
I think it willllllll I'm glad they're starting music show promos like tmrw
isn’t tomorrow only prerecording? i’ve seen kfans say their first music show will be emka as usual
so no nom?
prerecording for a music show that's in a week's time? 😭 the show is broadcasted today so it'd make sense for them to record for today's broadcast as they usually do but idk
right I guess they weren't actually gonna start early since it's being broadcasted next week
kill the romeo prerecording is at 19:30 well after the show starts highly likely they are prerecording for next week’s broadcast and zb1staff never posted the survey for live audience today
yea looks like it's coming next week are they gonna prerecord show champion too?
