Pann: BTS is amazing with their cumulated digital sales in 2018

1. [+86, -0] If you only look at the digital sales for BTS' title tracks, it's not that high but BTS' entire albums including the b-sides managed to chart high as well. That's why their cumulated sales are high. The fans don't just stream the title tracks. This is where Armys' fandom power shows ㅋㅋ

2. [+50, -6] BTS is a wall indeed...

3. [+44, -2] Wanna One's digital and physical sales are higher than I thought ㅋㅋㅋㅋ I expected Twice and BTS because they're too popular.

4. [+15, -27] Twice had multiple comebacks last year, of course their cumulated sales are higher than Blackpink's ㅋㅋㅋㅋ Blackpink's comeback was in the summer, too. If you want to look at the actual popularity, you should look at the annual chart. Blackpink's Ddu Du Ddu Du was released in summer but it's #6 on the annual chart whereas Twice is #20 ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

5. [+15, -0] Wanna One ㅠㅠ Bangtan-nims are also amazing.

6. [+13, -0] Hul... BTS is top in everything. Their balance is amazing.
