— How the ARIRANG rollout and its on-going promotions has broken away BTS from the K-Pop sphere once and for all:
For years, the industry tried to place BTS inside a single category. A label. A box. A limitation.
ARIRANG changed that.
BTS and BigHit refused to market them through the traditional K-pop blueprint. Instead, they built a rollout that operated on a scale rarely seen in modern music, one that invited the world in.
Instead of marketing only to existing fans, they built an era that invited the general public to participate.
🧵 K-pop's revenue pyramid says more than people realize. Let's talk about how dominant HYBE has become accounting for more than 51% of the revenue total in the industry👇
1/The Korean music industry is more competitive than ever, but when it comes to revenue, one company is operating in a completely different league. 📈
1Q26 Revenue:
🏆 HYBE — ₩698.3B (~US$469M) 💰
Here's how the major companies compare:
🥇 HYBE — ~US$469M
🥈 SM — ~US$187M
🥉 JYP — ~US$125M
4️⃣ YG — ~US$99M
2/Now here's the craziest part. 🤯
The companies shown generated roughly US$916M in combined revenue. 👉 HYBE alone represents approximately 51.3% of that total.
-One company generated more than half of the revenue of all these companies combined. 👑📊
*Not a youtube update but i wanted to share this to motivate you guys!!✨
I Got Your Back is charting on stats fm at #40 with 16.6k streams! yesterday we had 10k after day 2 tracking already started and we’ve risen since then, which means our day 2 spotify streams should be higher than our debut!
*stats fm only tracks streams from fans who download and link their accounts to the app
‘NORMAL’ by BTS reaches a new peak of #2 on this week’s Billboard Global 200 excl. U.S. chart.
It also re-enters this week’s Billboard Global 200 chart at #4.
🚨 ALARMENSE Y DIFUNDAN! Swim sigue sin reingresar a Apple Music Global y está apunto de bajar de los 3M, aún tenemos bsides fuera y solo dos canciones de arirang están charteando👇
La excusa del fin de semana acabo, tenemos que recuperar todo lo que se perdió en días anteriores, debemos levantarnos y buscar más reingresos y apuntemos a números verdes, podemos seguir logrando más logros pero necesitamos LONGEVIDAD, DESPIERTEN Y STREAM 🙏
