SEVENTEEN is facing backlash after their physical album points on a recent music broadcast registered at only one. Fans were shocked by the insanely low score.
This comes amid controversy over their fourth album’s reported sales, which appeared higher, sparking accusations against Pledis for mishandling promotions.
A look at past album scores shows a pattern of questionable results:
“SUPER
1st week: 3.9M
2nd week: 0 (it actually sold 0 copies)
3rd week: 670K
Thunder
1st week: 2.37M
2nd week: 1,300
3rd week?“
Netizens slammed Pledis for lacking effort and questioned if the agency is fit to manage a group like SEVENTEEN.
“What is the coincidence that the group they lost against was another group from HYBE..”
“Crazy.”
“When is their contract over…I am praying for them to leave the agency.”
“I am so mad…the albums I ordered in May still haven’t come.”
“PLEDIS is known for never getting anything done…where’s the CEO.”
“PLEDIS really isn’t big enough to promote SEVENTEEN.”
The situation is gaining traction as fans monitor Pledis’ response, which has yet to be officially addressed.
