Well done and appreciate the effort. Hot Mess reached #1 on Line Music Top 100 in Japan and has highest 1st day sales on Oricon for kpop GG japanese singles in 2024.
Also I’d like to add some additional facts: - The reason for the decline in sales is that Kakao now distributes their albums and for some reason, all of SM is having a problem. They are either not available internationally until months after release (like right now you can go to target and won’t find Armageddon on the shelves), pre-orders not being open until last minute or internationally too which just happened with Armageddon, and other problems which didn’t exist before Kakao became associated with SM. Also album sales in general are just lower for nearly every single kpop group now like txt, stray kids, newjeans, etc. - Yeah it’s true that Supernova did amazingly well on Spotify. At this moment, just by looking at the streams it’s the 5th biggest song by a 4th gen group, just behind Cupid, Super Shy, Ditto and OMG. - Just today, Supernova joined Ditto as the only songs in history to spend at least 40+ days at #1 on all major Korean daily charts (bugs, melon, genie and vibe) I’m probably missing some but this is just what I had in mind after watching this amazing video lol
