Netizens wonder the reason HYBE promoted the comebacks of Jungkook and NewJeans at the same time.
A netizen on Nate Pann recently raised a topic regarding Jungkook and NewJeans’ overlapping promotions. They said, “Jungkook is preventing others from achieving No.1 on daily, weekly, and monthly charts. NewJeans had many chances to win music shows but they couldn’t win more”.

In response, other netizens commented:
– It’s cooler than making a comeback in an empty house
– Well, Jungkook is already a global idol. But if he is that amazing in Korea, it means he has written a new history for male idols
– Jungkook did not release any album for his English song. As a male solo artist, I think he did not have high expectations for domestic achievements in the first place. He actually did not promote the song in Korea and only performed overseas. So the plan for that three promotional weeks should be: NewJeans – Jungkook – NewJeans
– This proves that HYBE idols are doing very well. 10 years ago, if you turn on the TV, you will only see SM idols here and there. I guess times have changed
– HYBE has so many idols now… V is also making his solo debut in September, I think his debut also overlaps other HYBE artists’ comebacks. They are HYBE artists but under different labels so overlapping activities are inevitable
– He achieved No.1 on Billboard HOT 100 and has topped the Global Spotify chart for a month. Who is on the same level with who? ㅋㅋ Melon-charting idols?
