4MINUTE is arguably CUBE ENTERTAINMENT's biggest group with 7 years full of international appeal, stock raising interest and charms on fleek. We all know that HATE has yet to catch on in SOUTH KOREA, the world has taken the fierce fivesome into their hearts propelling the song and album to the tops of the charts.
4MINUTE's ACT 7 EP debuted at number 3 on the Billboard World Album Charts while HATE's first week landed them at number 2 on the World Digital Songs Chart! What an amazing feat for a group who has had comebacks delayed since 2010 for other CUBE acts who have little to no appeal to anyone outside of the area surrounding the Sea of Japan! 4MINUTE 4EVER!

Date: 2016-02-11 06:46 am (UTC)Nice try OP but lol @this "journalism" aka selectively presented 'facts' with a heaping side of lies.
It's this comeback that Cube fucked up, but has everyone conveniently forgotten that 4minute got a pre-release+single to promote last year, and the tv appearances to back it up? Which worked because Crazy ended up actually doing well both domestically and abroad.
And considering Japan is the world's #2 biggest music market as well as the #2 market for kpop (#1 being ofc, Korea), I'd say establishing enough presence there to be doing regular concerts and releases >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> whatever pennies anyone brings in from hyper-niche fandoms in.... Latin America. Or Europe. And I notice you conveniently neglect to mention the regular concerts in SEA countries too.... but don't let facts get in the way of dragging omona's Public Enemy #1.
