Not surprised. Kpop groups and their companies run off fandoms, not the gp. Which means with a personal based connections to groups and companies from significant portions of the youth population, they can bypass any negativity from the gp. Their like football teams or famous athletes. Too beloved by fans to fail. I won't be surprised if they do well with the gp as well, like I said YGE is a huge household brand. I think YG's three gg there planning from the BlackLabel, their Chinese company and their main company will also be successful despite objections from Blinks.
Anyway, congrats and good luck TXT.
