To ensure this thread won't be closed, you must adhere to several a number of simple rules;
Please use spoilers when quoting a post with pictures and/or videos.
When posting large quantities of media (pictures or videos), please begin spoilering after the first piece. Grouping related videos in the same spoilers & labeling is recommended.
No reposting of old material unless justified
Posting any material with little or no relevent discussion accompanying it
No passion-induced flaming of each other because 'x said y sucked' etc.
Keep the expression hate of music individuals/groups to a minimal level
No 'pagetopping' in any form whatsoever, as it constitutes spam equal to posts similar to 'first'.
No vulgar fan fics or wet dream stories. It is creepy, weird, and it dehumanizes the people who you are here to celebrate/discuss.
Normal posting standards that you find throughout the rest of the site still apply and will be enforced more strictly from here forward (2012/03/11)
Due to the poor nature of this thread in the past, temporary two-day bans will occur more than often if people slip up.

Do you learn all the dances? More importantly, can you do the merengue?
Nah I just learn the dances I like and looks fun. I am ok (as in not good) but working on it. Some steps are just too difficult for me. Like the 1.48 -> 1.52 backwards steps while putting your arms around your head while also making it look like you are not even trying is pretty fucking difficult but the rest of the chorus is pretty easy to learn and fun. It's just making it look smooth and effortless that is the difficult part
So Twice album sold out in the preorder of 30000 copies. Just feel like 30 000 copies is a very low amount to produce. Think they could easily sell 50k+ even 100k+

Nah don't think 30 000 is that much.
Red Velvet sold 93k copies of their albums just last year, they are still selling atm so the number is increasing.
SNSD + Taeyeon sold 330k and also still selling.
EXO sold 1.2mil but EXO is EXO and they milked it pretty hard with 20 different versions of EXODUS.
30k for JYPs most hyped group seems low. They could become JYPs most popular group if they play the cards right. Got7 is popular but nothing too big and there is room for a huge girl group in Korea again with the old squad fading out slowly except for SNSD.

In this case, 30k physical copies would be kinda low actually, because Twice sold more than 67k physical/digital copies of their first album in Korea. Twice is much more popular than Sistar.
It might be low for a SM/JYP group but it's high across the board if you look at all somewhat popular girl groups.

He and I are talking in general and then you compare it vs the absolute top? -_-
Assuming Gaon's chart is physical albums: (Since they have separate digital, download and streaming charts)
Lion Heart sold 145k total last year, Party sold 76k. 4 Walls sold 75k Ice Cream Cake was 49k. Twice first album was 49k as well, total for 2015.
Crazy (4minute) and So Good (T-ara) were both only 21-22k though.
Printing 30k is almost certainly a first run, and it just sold out faster than they expected. Highly unlikely their total printing will be 30k, since they already sold more first time round.
Per Wikipedia: "The Gaon Album Chart ranks physical album sales, including mini and single albums. It is compiled from offline data provided by record labels and distributors such as LOEN Entertainment, CJ E&M Music, KT Music, Sony Music Korea, Pony Canyon Korea, Universal Music Korea, and Warner Music Korea."

Twices hype is pretty fucking real though, 50mil views this fast on youtube is a lot. Currently the most viewed video on the JYP channel beating Got7.
