On August 28, BLACKPINK successfully presented their new single “Ice cream” with Selena Gomez. It’s been three days since the song was released, and so far the song has received a lot of interest from both Korean and international fans.

However, there has recently been a heated discussion in an online community about the girl group’s ranking in Korea. A netizen posted a screenshot of Melon’s charts and asked why BLACKPINK’s ranking on the Korean music chart was so low.

Since then, many BLACKPINK fans and netizens have been in a fervent discussion about the matter. Some netizens have commented on their opinions that BLACKPINK’s song is not as popular in Korea as it is abroad and does not suit the taste of Korean listeners, while other netizens and fans defend the girl group saying that BLACKPINK’s goal they were listeners abroad.

Opinions have been widely divided on BLACKPINK’s new song and the discussion is still going on.

Netizens commented:

The song was soft … I didn’t know when the chorus started or ended. “

“I think the song was more suited to Selena in general and focused on her.”

“All I could see was Selena. She looked like a Barbie doll.”

“I think BLACKPINK was dominated by Selena even in the MV. It seemed like it was Selena and her four dancers.”
“Maybe because the song was in English, but this time I was a little disappointed with the new BLACKPINK song.”
“The song doesn’t suit the taste of Korean people … it seems like they just copied American pop.”

“BLACKPINK was hoping to be No. 1 on the Hot 100 or something, but they’re doing it wrong nationally.”

“This song was aimed overseas, so the style of course is different. There may be a clear division of opinion, but this song has good results internationally.”

“BTS and BLACKPINK say they performed poorly if they are not No. 1, but they are the only two groups that are in the top 10. Just because they don’t rank No. 1 on the melon charts doesn’t mean they failed. they are now # 1 on the Genie charts. “

“The fact is, BLACKPINK was ranked highest on Spotify’s charts.”

“BLACKPINK is actually one of the two Korean artists in the US top 50. The other artist is BTS.”

“Well, this song was intended for international fans, so it doesn’t matter if Korean people don’t like this song. There will be people who like it and people who don’t. But this song isn’t even the title song of BLACKPINK. Album to be released in October. “

“I like this song humming all day.”
