aespa’s “Drama” Suddenly Rises on Chart Amid Min Hee-jin’s Press Conference

As Min Hee-jin’s press conference about the ongoing HYBE-ADOR feud garners attention, aespa’s “Drama” suddenly trends. 

On the afternoon of April 25, Korean media and international social media continued to buzz as Min Hee-jin – the “mother of NewJeans” and CEO of NewJeans’ agency ADOR, held a press conference to officially announce her stance on the dramatic feud between ADOR and HYBE Labels.

Amid various developments and revelations made throughout the over 2-hour press conference, netizens were intrigued to see a K-pop song suddenly rising on charts for being somewhat relevant to the event. 

Specifically, aespa’s song “Drama” was ranked #36 on the MelOn chart before Min Hee-jin’s press conference. However, immediately after the press conference ended, the hit song of the SM girl group soared to #22.

It is known that during the press conference, Min Hee-jin shocked everyone by revealing a message from Bang Si-hyuk asking her, “Can you trample on aespa?”

It’s worth noting that this question from the HYBE chairman came on the same day aespa won the Rookie and Daesang awards at the 2021 AAA Awards. 

It seems that the mention of aespa, along with the fitting song title, has caused “Drama” to rise again.
