Karina version: 476,043 copies
Ningning version: 309,086 copies
Winter: 176,253 copies
Giselle: 39,621 copies

Total: 1,001,003 copies

+) The album is released on the 13th in Japan and the United States, that's why only the first two days of sales are included (the pre-order period ended on the 14th). Both days were on the weekend. 

+) Even excluding the Chinese fans' group orders, they still sold 700,000 copies in the first week (I don't understand why they need to exclude the Chinese fans' group orders in the first place)

theqoo

-Does that mean the first-week album sales that were on the news included Chinese fans' group order sales as well??

-Does that mean 1 M copies out of 1.6 M copies Aespa sold in the first week are bought by Chinese fans?

-What made them popular in China?

-No wonder why Lee Sooman really likes China...

-That means 60% of their first-week album sales are from China...

-Karina is amazing... She's really amazing...

-Chinese fans are still fans too...ㅋㅋㅋ They're really amazing

-Whoa... I'm really jealous of them. I hope my favorite group will gain more popularity in China...

-Congratulations on being really popular, Jjang-Aespa!!

-Whoa... They're really popular in China. Congratulations! I hope my favorite group's Chinese fans would buy a lot (of the album)...

-Congratulations! I'm really jealous of Aespa...

-Karina seems to be really popular in China...

-That must be really nice. Hey, Chinese fans... Please like my favorite group too...

Aespa's Chinese fans' group order sales for MY WORLD reach 1,001,003 copies

#Yoonsang What is my charm point?

The tweet has gained over 8 M views and 10K RT quotes
If you check the RT quotes, most of them are hate commentsㅋㅋㅋ

I know he's a hard-working guy. It's sad to see him getting cyber-bullied like thisㅠ
I'm sure he checks the comments he receives on Twitter, though... It upsets me to see him getting a lot of hate, that's why I'm writing this post

He debuted as the youngest member of a group called AWEEK a few years ago, however, the group disbanded. He didn't give up on his dream to become an idol and debuted as the leader of this new group. He is working really hard. They haven't even officially debuted yet. They're currently only active in Japan as their pre-debut...? promotionsㅠ



In his previous group, he was rumored to bully a member to the point that member had to leave the group. Someone claimed to be his friend and started the rumor. However, that person immediately deactivated their account after his company threatened to take legal actionsㅋㅋㅋ But people are still spreading that rumor without even bothering to read the clarification.

+) If you ever see someone spread that rumor on Twitter, please tell them that it's false rumor!!ㅠ

Despite the company releasing an official statement about the rumor, nobody seems to care and they continued to bully him, calling he's ugly, saying he deserves all the hate, etc. I'm writing this post with hope that at least people in this online community knows that's just a false rumor. 

theqoo

-Whoa... People are really cruel. I hope he wouldn't get hurt by those commentsㅠㅠ

-What? He's not ugly at all, though...??

-What do you mean... He looks really adorable...

-What... A lot of people still talk about the bullying rumor in the RT Quotes. Not to mention those tweets get a lot of RTs. I think he really should take a legal action this time...

-He looks handsome, though... Why are there a lot of mean people in this world?ㅜㅜ Fighting!! I hope he will take a legal action against those people...

-Even if he's ugly, why would you hate him just because you think he's ugly? That's really awful.

-I checked the RT Quotes and noticed that people are crossing the lines... Why are they so mean?

-They're leaving hate comments on the group's official account...? Do they think he can't see their tweets? They're really mean. There is an actual person behind that accountㅠㅠ

-There are a lot of weird people on Twitter...ㅠ

-I hope those people would receive the same mean comments when they post pictures of their faces on the Internet...

-Why is he being targeted?

-Why are there a lot of mean people on Twitter? Is it because they're anonymous?

-Those people must be really crazyㅠㅠ Why are they acting like that?

-I really hope that idol doesn't check the comments on Twitter...

-These days, judging celebrities' looks seem to be normalized. I really don't understand that. 

-This is exactly why I hate Twitter

-I really like the first picture. It's totally my style.

-I f*cking love the first picture

-Whoa... He released all these pictures in one day. That's crazy.

-The concept is so variedㅋㅋ The fourth picture is my style...

-Oh my goodness, Taeyong-ah...

-He really suits that hair color...

-His eyes are so freaking big...

-I really like the pictures where he's holding a guitar...

-I wanted him to debut with pink or silver hair, though... What a shame...

-He looks like an AI... Look at how big his eyes are. He's so f*cking handsome. 

-I love how he shows off his handsome face in different ways...

-I can't believe he released all of these pictures in just one dayㅋㅋㅋㅋ I love thisㅠㅠ

-I'm crying because he looks really handsomeㅜㅜ

-I love how varied the concepts are...

-Wow... All these pictures in just one day? I wonder what will he release tomorrow... I'm shaking just to think of it...

-He's f*cking beautiful... He looks like a king. 

-His face is driving me insane...

theqoo

-Are they going to be a couple in this drama...?

-Wait a minute... What is the age difference between them?

-What... I'm sure it's not a romance drama, right?

-No one said it's going to be a romance drama. Why are you guys asking about their age difference?

-They're not a couple, guys. The script is available to read on O'PEN's homepage. Go check it out if you're curious about the drama~

-If this is not a romance drama, they should give us a little more detail about the plot. I got scared because the title has 'love' in it.

-Someone spotted Arin around a Hakwon. She's not playing the role of a high school student, though. I think she's playing the role of a student who is preparing for the college entrance exam for the second time. 

-Why are you guys asking about their age difference when you don't even know what kind of relations their roles have in this drama?ㅋㅋ

-I read the synopsis and it's not about romance...

-Fighing, Arin!

-Yes, the two of them are the main characters in this drama. But the female main character likes another male character, not the main one...

-Oh Gosh, that surprised me. This drama is not about romance.

 ENA Wed-Thu drama 'Borah! Debora'

In her dialogue, Yoo Inna mentioned the 'Auschwitz concentration camp', a Nazi extermination camp during World War 2. She talked about how she feels lonely as a single woman but she still tries to dress up, and used The Holocaust as a metaphor for her situation. This scene has become a hot topic overseas. 

 It seems like they used a controversial Tweet from Twitter for their dialogue. Obviously, that tweet had received a lot of backlash at that time. 


The moment you give up on improving your appearance, a lot of things go wrong. I'm not saying that you should get plastic surgery and do full makeup. Even in the Auschwitz concentration camp, they said that people who give up on their appearance were the first ones to fall apart. 

-Well, then you guys don't even bother taking showers and just go around wearing your shirt that has stretched neckband. Make sure to show up at your wedding like that and go to job interviews with a bare face~~ If you grow your hair 5cm below your ears, you will die~ That's all!

-I was deeply moved by that book, it wasn't about 'improving one's appearance'. It's about how even though there was no point in showering with dirty water in the concentration camp, showering was a kind of ritual and the last way to maintain the sanity of those who were dying. That book was written by an actual survivor. Why are you twisting their words?

The reason why Jewish people did that at the time was because it was an act of hope to survive and maintain their dignity.

It's chilling to hear her saying that in the concentration camp when given a cup of water, they chose to drink half of it and washed their face with the rest, and they even shaved with a piece of glass...

theqoo

-It's shocking how no one in the production team thought the dialogue could cause controversy until it aired on TV...

-Did they really not know that dialogue could be controversial? I'm sure they wouldn't quote that tweet if they realized it was controversial, though...

-What? Did they really write that dialogue? It's really shocking... No one even bothered to review the dialogue??? I can't believe these people are making dramas... To be honest, the production team seems to be really thoughtless...

-They're bringing an embarrassment to our country... I wonder why on earth did they write that kind of dialogue...

-Why did they quote that tweet when it received backlash on Twitter?

-They better clean up this mess and release an apology letter... They're really quiet for someone who just caused a huge problem...

-I stopped watching that drama after that scene.

-Why haven't they apologized?

-Please don't embarrass our countryㅠㅠㅠㅠ

-It fascinates me how no one in the production team seems to know this would cause controversy. Do they not read books?

-I wonder what was in the scriptwriter's mind when they wrote this dialogue

-I can't defend them for this one...

-There's a reason why this drama flops...

-That tweet received a lot of hate and critics, though. I wonder why they still quote that tweet...

Onew was 21, Jonghyun was 20, Key and Minho were 19, and Taemin was 17 years old in that pictureㅠㅠ

theqoo 

-They were babies in that pictureㅠㅠ

-Isn't Taemin like... 17 in that picture? It has been such a long time. It's really great to see this picture.

-Whoa... Now that I look at it, they were real babies...

-Babiesㅠㅠ SM told us they prepared a small gift for us. But isn't this too small?ㅋㅋㅋ Can you give us 525 more pictures?

-Jonghyun's smile looks really adorable there...ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Onew looked relatively mature when they first debuted back then. But now that I look at it, the five of them were all babies...ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-I really miss SHINee OT5...

-These babies are so pretty and preciousㅠㅠ

theqoo

-I think the show will be really fun, but I hope they will refrain from showing alcoholic beverages on TV shows now... Did they really have to feature alcohol in this show?

-Please stop drinking alcohol on TV Shows... If you do, put a 19+ rating on it...

-Another actor starring in another travel show... The production team seems to be really lazyㅋ They don't have to think about the script for their variety shows, they just pick up and feature the current trends. 

-I mean... The show hasn't even started filming;;; Don't you guys think we have to watch the show first before judging?

-People are hating over the smallest thing ever... They haven't even started filming...

-Please stop featuring alcoholic beverages on TV Shows...

-I'm really jealous of celebrities because they get to go on a vacation for free... Scratch that, they actually earn money from going on vacation...

-I know the fans would really like it, but I really hate this kind of variety show...

-Hul... Im Siwan!! I should watch this show...

-It's weird how they prohibit smoking on TV shows but allow alcoholic beverages...

-This is the kind of variety show that only fans like...

-First of all, my eyes would be blessed...

-I'm just jealous of them...

-I'm jealous of them because they get to earn money from going on a vacationㅠㅠ I wish I were one of them...

-I'm really looking forward to this show because I like Im Siwanㅋㅋㅋ

-I feel like this country is crazy for alcoholㅋㅋ I don't understand why they like drinking so much and actually proud of it. It's not even like they can handle alcohol that well, thoughㅋ

Jung Haein and Im Siwan go to Scotland ... Launch a variety show about alcohol and traveling
