Pann: Yang Hyuk Suk doesn't know how to make fandom-based idol groups
(Pann talks about how YG refuses to follow idol concepts such as a unique world, bait ads, outfits and props and only relies on musically-talented idols, which ends up producing digitally-dependent groups - Bigbang, Winner, iKON)
1. [+350, -30] Agreed. If you want to earn money by fandoms, you have to do it like SM. NCT has zero public recognition but their physical sales are 300K for 127 and 200K for Dream.
2. [+318, -12] Honestly, the reason why Bigbang, iKON, and Winner are doing well isn't because of the company, it's because of their own work. But I watched YG Treasure and there weren't many kids who could write/compose like their sunbaes. It was as if YG's unique characteristic was gone... Objectively, I could see a couple of talented kids only.
3. [+306, -2] First of all, their long hiatuses are an enough reason to fail with fandoms.
4. [+167, -16] I'm OK with digitally-dependent groups but the problem is that everyone keeps trying to make fandom-based groups.
- [+29, -0] It's because digitally-dependent groups don't earn much
5. [+121, -7] The CEOs of SM and Big Hit are Seoul National University graduates. Yang Hyun Suk doesn't even have a brain to catch up on them.
6. [+112, -1] Yes, Yang Hyun Suk doesn't know how to deal with fandom-based groups. Seeing YG Treasure, he seemed to want to go towards fandom-based groups but if it's going to be ambiguous, it's better to fully push as a digitally-dependent group or a public-friendly group instead.
7. [+107, -1] I'm a non-fan. If YG wants to make a fandom-based group, they should also care about talents, not just faces. The selected members should have talents or potentials. If not, the members should have a good chemistry at least so that individual fans can get along. But their member selection is the most random ㅋㅋㅋㅋ Yang Hyun Suk should just give up.
8. [+105, -4] I'm so upset. When Winner debuted, they sold overpriced $50 albums for a fansign and it still sold well. Their votes were really high and they swept all the rookie awards, even the journalists were surprised. There weren't many groups that could fill up the Olympic Stadium, and the fact that a rookie group was holding a fansign at the stadium was surprising enough. Yang Hyun Suk knows he's the one that destroyed Winner's fandom, that's why he was like "miss them?"
