they are getting there, thanks to two Canadian members and one American. They are getting there. it almost feels like they are a new group though. I would blame that on promotion.

so that´s kind of unfair to judge :D. how are they able to be popular internationally when they are yet to be so in their homecountry?

Anyway, here are some groups who are decent to pretty famous in Korea but not so much internationally, or atleast their i-fandom is pretty tiny compared to the domestic fandom.

1. BTOB
2. Oh My Girl
3. Lovelyz
4. The Boyz (although i-fandom growing post RTK)
5. ONF
6. Golden Child
7. Apink
8. Nu'est
9. Astro
10. Winner

I am confused lol, are you saying they're more popular in Korea than internationally? Coz except Chuu and maybe Heejin/Yves to a lesser degree, they're pretty much nugus there
Most of their sales comes from abroad and they can barely chart in any Korean charts, but they do exceptionally well in iTunes globally. They have the 2nd highest iTunes #1s among all girl groups, 2nd only to BP.
