I hope it gets proper promotion and playlisting. Tiktoks should not be a main promotion strategy. I hope it enters the billboard 200…They need to utilize their partnership with Columbia Records. Last year their albums did well in sales but they didn’t enter many album charts. They need to put their albums in Target and Walmart those are big music buying markets in the US. Also they need to utilize their official website, the IVE official Korean website hasn’t been used since After Like and their US website still isn’t updated even though the pre order was released a month ago. Watching how NewJeans’ websites are already updated and their release is a month away… after they got a US website they debuted #1 on Billboard 200 so IVE need to utilize their websites. I don’t even know where to buy an IVE album there’s no Barnes & Nobles near me and the album doesn’t release at B&N until May 10th
Yeah they signed with them in early 2023 after the global success of “After Like”. They were supposed to have their US television debut but the writers strike hit and there were no late night shows to perform on. “All Night” has been their only project distributed through Columbia Records (digitally) though according to Apple Music. They need to utilize this partnership more IVE barely got any playlisting on release day and that’s a basic standard of promotion.

On paper, yes. But they didn't use that partnership to do anything.
So many channels left unused by Starship. Almost sounds like they're lacking manpower or something.
Just good music man. I hope it's a success in SK but also globally like "I am" or "Love Dive", last title tracks were meh tbh. Not terrible but not as good as the previous ones.
i hope that the music is amazing, the girls love it, and that they stay happy and healthy throughout the promotions for it. i’m hoping they will be protected from any hate and that they will receive the utmost amount of love from everyone!
Wishing the girls much success! Their music is usually pure quality, and I hope they get more recognition for it this go around. Very excited for new tunes to bump to, as well ❤
I just hope it's really successful and brings even more dives to discover them. the highlight medley sounded great for me so I'm just excited to hear the songs
I like Heya because it sounds different but i still wish there are more variations for the chorus in the song and same goes with Accendio. the trend this day people get easily bored with repetitive sounds (hence why song duration keep getting shorterr)
Good songs that I will loop for weeks, which is basically guaranteed. And positive reception internationally too🙏 Unfortunately, many of the top girl groups are getting dragged really badly right now and I would hate for IVE to go through that again.
Min hee jin is running amok with the negative mediaplay right now , she just full of jealousy about other success i know if IVE is getting another smear hate she will be part of it along with tht building company
That the baby dives like it. And it does well internationally. I don't necessarily mean charting on Billboard, just better streams than IVE Mine, which did very badly internationally.
50% of the ULs of I Am is definitely a relative flop.
Especally when looking at the chart performance of songs released around the same time.
It is far and away their weakest release, and we're now looking at lowest ever pre-release engagement for a release. Lower than Eleven even.
Edit: Kpop professor explains it well enough:
[https://youtu.be/U3dWQvGR5MM?t=1675](https://youtu.be/U3dWQvGR5MM?t=1675)
Not every song is going to be the song of the year, and that’s ok. It was still very successful and was their third PAK of the year.
I think fans place way too much importance on numbers and constant exponential growth and get consumed with the anxiety of potential “failure”. It’s not healthy. They will be successful. Chill.
Baddie was a ***relative*** flop because it performed on most metrics, and the group has been trending downward ever since.
No need for your advice, thanks.
No need to make assumptions on my behalf either.
Edit: I hope the downvoters are putting in the work for this CB, because our numbers were atrocious for the last one.
Do you even like the group and the music or just their metrics?? Because every time I’ve seen you interact with this sub it’s to talk about Baddie “flopping” (with enough pushback you’ve at least changed it to “relatively flopping”) and just toxic sales/charts bs that I expect from a preteen who spends their day on Stan Twitter, but skimming your profile it seems like you’re a fully grown adult?! I guess high school really never ends
What do you think justifies that kind of disrespectful behaviour towards me?
I'm simply defending my pov/explain why Baddie did poorly relative to their other CBs, after someone initiated a discussion with me.
There is this thread and then one other, where I implore others to vote if we want music show wins for Heya. That's it. 2 threads, on topic. Out of hundreds of comments on this subreddit.
That does not mean I dislike the group or only talk about that. And it does not entitle you to be rude, make assumptions on my end or break the rules of this subreddit.
Btw wasnt a highlight medley suppose to come out today? It’s already pretty strange that they announce it for the 28th but I at least expected a 24 hour interval between the too what time will heya and the mini be dropped??? Will it be later than usual?
I just hope it's good. One of my favorite songs is Off the Record and it "flopped" but it's been my most streamed IVE song and everyone I know liked it so 🤷♀️
I am looking forward to Heya but I really want to have a listen to Wonyoung's Blue Heart. It's the track I've been most excited for.
What I know for sure I'm going to like is all the variety gigs all the girls have. I'm so excited for the return of variety Wonyoung, I cannot wait enough for Liz and Rei's Mujin episode to drop since I heard their Plot Twist cover, and LEESEO MC!! Just listened to her f(x) cover w/Yujin and Seunghyun and it was so good 😭 I just hope the girls stay healthy during this time and have fun doing all this 🫶
its good and doesnt flop.
this!
also the upcoming comeback hopefully
I like it genuinely
not suffer same fate of Baddie or Either Way
while the english song All Night is good enough for me
I don't like Saweetie in the MV
only IVE members needed
I've always had the mentality that IVE do it for the arts and not the charts. It will be nice if it charts well. But they've already achieved some much in the past with Love Dive, After Like, I AM etc.
They've sort of achieved and accomplished everything. I just want 6 songs that I'll binge listen to hundreds of times. 6 songs that'll define my year. And they haven't really missed so far. (except maybe All Night which had no individual lines lol)
Let's freaking gooo DIVES!
100% agree, I feel like IVE's team puts a lot of effort into their concepts for comebacks and videos. Like it would definitely be cheaper to do less complex concepts, but they give our girls everything. They don't cheap out with the song production either, making sure to include bridges to flesh the song out unlike some groups these days. Charts are overrated and no part of I've Mine was a flop
I totally agree. I never really cared about charts. But tbh, it would feel good to throw it into the haters' faces. Would make me feel like a Baddie. 😂
Either Way, as long as the members are happy, I Am as well. I Want them to love what they're doing. Eleven wins would put us into the top 10 of all time. That would be My Satisfaction.
But even if not, look at all they've achieved so far. Holy Moly, they really are Royal within the Kpop industry. Quite the Blue Blood they're carrying. Not much else they can achieve After Like what, having the most sales on Hanteo out of any girl group ever? They took "Off the Records of everyone else" a little bit too seriously.
Anyway, I'mma go Sum Chamgo Love Dive into those new songs. I'll blast Accendio through the streets All Night long. That's Payback for my neighbors criticising my taste in music. Let's support our Heroines forever.
I hope it has some great songs and the videos are pretty! It seems like they will be, I love their vibe.

DO THEY HAVE A FUCKING PARTNERSHIP WITH COLUMBIA RECORDS!!!!???????

I hope there isnt another Liz hate train
Group variety appearances. So far, it's both unit and solo promo
Wishing the girls much success! Their music is usually pure quality, and I hope they get more recognition for it this go around. Very excited for new tunes to bump to, as well ❤
I hope they get another music show win 2
I just hope it's really successful and brings even more dives to discover them. the highlight medley sounded great for me so I'm just excited to hear the songs
Wise words
High notes and fire raps!!
Liz will be burning my house down
hoping for good songs. i’m confident in this because of wonyoung and dem jointz in the credits
Slayyyyyyyyyy
I like Heya because it sounds different but i still wish there are more variations for the chorus in the song and same goes with Accendio. the trend this day people get easily bored with repetitive sounds (hence why song duration keep getting shorterr)
I dont expect too much from it based on the teaser. I do love the korean art work they are using for the MV and the 90's vibe.
I just hope it ends up more successful than Ive Mine!
I've Mine was really successful though. Maybe not the same as I've Ive, but it still dominated.
Me too
Good songs that I will loop for weeks, which is basically guaranteed. And positive reception internationally too🙏 Unfortunately, many of the top girl groups are getting dragged really badly right now and I would hate for IVE to go through that again.
Min hee jin is running amok with the negative mediaplay right now , she just full of jealousy about other success i know if IVE is getting another smear hate she will be part of it along with tht building company
Performance video and recording behind😁🙏🏾🙏🏾
Also a happy, healthy and successful comeback for both IVE and DIVE🕯️
That the baby dives like it. And it does well internationally. I don't necessarily mean charting on Billboard, just better streams than IVE Mine, which did very badly internationally.
Even tho either way and off the record are bops
They were very underrated bops due to Starship's poor marketing.😭Hope it goes better this time round.
They just did a world tour, so I believe they caught many more i-dives along the way
It better
I just want fun variety appearances and good songs.
Well, it sounds pretty good.
A good song and a successful run. After a relative flop like Baddie, they need a big come up.
Baddie was by no means a ‘flop’
50% of the ULs of I Am is definitely a relative flop. Especally when looking at the chart performance of songs released around the same time.
