1. [+558, -51] What an amazing YouTube girl~ the victory of the Indonesian people~
2. [+525, -53] Yep~ Skipping YG~
3. [+472, -47] Who cares when they're under YG at the end of the day
4. [+59, -2] YG was really guided by the gods when they decided to add a Thai member. If Black Pink didn't have the support of South East Asia, they would never be getting the followers or views that they are now~
5. [+46, -6] YG at it again... What's the point in bragging about this when their YouTube or streaming stats don't translate to album sales? They're always talking about high views but I can't trust them anymore because of all the media play...
6. [+45, -4] ㅋㅋㅋ You're an idiot if you believe this
7. [+43, -3] 'First K-Pop group'? You mean all these numbers are earned off of their South East Asian member and her South East Asian fans. Best what? ㅠㅠ Media play like this is so sad ㅠㅠ it only turns public sentiment against them;;
8. [+41, -3] So why don't their concert tickets sell when they get so many YouTube views? Why do they have four times the views that Twice does but can't even beat them in first week sales? Twice totally dominates the top 10 first week album sales so why does Black Pink only ever get YouTube views?
9. [+40, -4] All those views are from Thailand and Indonesia anyway
10. [+40, -4] Can't beat South East Asia when it comes to numbers
11. [+36, -2] Thai, Vietnamese, and Indonesians stream a ton for Lisa. If you excluded views from those countries, Black Pink would be left with 1/5 of the views they have now.
