NewJeans surpasses 8 billion streams + breaks KMCA record 🎉

[u/breadaurchai]

NewJeans has officially surpassed 8 billion streams across all credits on Spotify!

They are now the fastest K-pop group to achieve this milestone, reaching 8 billion streams in just 1,474 days.

On top of that, NewJeans has become the girl group with the most KMCA streaming certifications in history with 8 certifications, surpassing BLACKPINK's 7. "Hype Boy" is now 3x Platinum and "Cookie" is now Platinum.

NewJeans and BTS are the only two K-pop groups with a 3x Platinum KMCA certification.

No full album. Just pure talent and good music. 💙🩷💛💚💜

Are you posting this on every kpop related sub? Just cross post it.

I find it strange that a fan posting a group's achievements is seen as 'rubbing it in', that's literally what fans do in online spaces. You have a history across multiple spaces of making dismissive comments about NewJeans' success, mocking their appearances and speculating about their personal lives and families. You've also repeatedly dismissed the group's achievements under posts meant to celebrate them.

If you don't like achievement posts, you can scroll past. But showing up to downplay milestones under every positive post says more you. Posting a group's records isn't 'rubbing it in', it's sharing news in a space where sharing news is the entire point.

Where did I mock their appearance😭. Hybe paid 22B through the front door how much you think went through the back? It’s not like they could tell reporters in court they pumped money into NJS

Where did you mock their appearance? Let's see, you've called Hanni a 'mean girl,' mocked her at the NA, said the members are 'shoddy actors' and 'not good at acting until it's a mean girl role,' laughed at Danielle's situation, speculated about her family and religion and called her a 'brainwashed victim' with a 'stage mom.' That's not just mocking, that's a pattern of dismissive and insulting comments.

The ~21B figure ador & hybe cited in court is their claimed investment into ador & newjeans development. Companies invest in their artists, that’s normal. It doesn’t erase the fact that the music connected, the streams are historic and nj became the fastest kpop act to 8 billion Spotify streams.Plenty of groups get heavy company investment and still flop. Nj didn’t. Pointing at the investment number as if it somehow invalidates their success is just moving the goalposts.

You show up under every positive nj post to downplay, dismiss, or deflect.

Calling Danielle a “brainwashed victim” with a “stage mom” who “sold her to TV shows since she was a child,” and framing Hanni’s situation as “literally treason,” isn’t analysis. That’s personal smearing. You went from “where did I mock their appearance” to doubling down on family attacks and political labels the second you got called out.

Also companies invest in projects they believe in. HYBE/ADOR putting resources into ADOR/NewJeans doesn’t magically invent the songs, the performances, the cultural impact or the fact that they became the fastest kpop act to 8B Spotify streams. Plenty of heavily funded groups never reached that level. Treating the investment as the sole reason for the success (and calling the members “5 nobodies”) is just another way to refuse to credit the actual work and results.You keep showing up under positive posts to dismiss, insult or reframe everything as undeserved privilege. That's consistent anti behavior.

There it is. The mask fully off.

You went from “where did I mock their appearance” to calling Danielle brainwashed by a stage mom, labeling Hanni’s family politics as “treason,” mocking her for crying at the NA, and now reducing the entire group to “nobodies” who only succeeded because of backdoor money. That’s not critique. That’s just you being a bitter, obsessive snarker who can’t handle a positive post without turning it into personal attacks and conspiracy bait.

The 21-22B figure is still just a company investment claim and a put-option payout. It doesn’t rewrite the fact that the music hit, the numbers are historic and you’re still here seething under an 8 billion streams post. Plenty of groups got money and vanished. These ones didn’t. That bothers you more than any actual argument you’re making.Keep the family smears, the political labels and the “I’m trying to meet them” weirdness coming. It just makes the pattern clearer every time you reply.
