However, some netizens have noticed that the song is ranking surprisingly “low” on Korean music charts, especially for a group as big as TWICE.
On MelOn, the song dropped a considerable amount between the release date and the following day.
It performed similarly on Genie between the first and second days of release.
According to the forum post that this data was shared on, “I Got You” didn’t chart on Bugs during these days.
However, fans aren’t too worried about these numbers. For one, “I Got You” is an English-language song, so it’s to be expected that it would appeal more to international fans. Additionally, TWICE is currently touring and selling out stadium tours with tens of thousands of seats, so their success and popularity on a worldwide scale is clearly not suffering.
Here’s how fans have been reacting to these charting numbers.
TWICE are far from being any kind of “flop”, and there’s plenty of evidence outside of just pure streaming numbers that prove it!
