    Oh, guys. Did you know that IZ*ONE's Open Your Eyes has a similar intro with GNZ48's song. I don't know if this is considered plagiarism or not. But, :fp:

    Probably sampled from somewhere.

    God, the MV is amazing, the song is amazing, the set design is amazing. Although mainly an AKB48 forum, I sincerely hope J-Line has a better future (dramas, shows, movies) rather than getting stuck doing cutesie concepts and gravure photoshoots when IZ*ONE does disband. The amount of professionalism, AKB cannot beat right now. (This is also coming from someone that some AKB songs so don't come at me).

    PS: To the peeps that wanted them to disband, suck on this!

    BLOOM*IZ is currently at over 175k sales on first day (Hanteo), breaking the record for sales in the first WEEK for a girl group (record previously held by Twice's FANCY YOU with 151k). They still have six days left of the week [hehe]

    I saw FIESTA the moment it came out, but after watching like 5 times I had to go to sleep, now after watching the showcase, I feel the J-line got pretty little spotlight compared to the other members. Like if Fiesta were focused on the K-line members, even Sakura seems to have less spotlight compared to Violeta and LVR. The 3 of the are getting the same lines, except for Sakura's rap part and her line in the second chorus, and it feels they get a moment and then they get lost until the second chorus, in which they do same lines again. I don't know if I'm the only one who feels this.

    in the MV, or in showcase, i think their line and screen time is better than kwangbae or chaeyeon

    Yeah, these are Korea only sales (and international sales if people bought if off websites like Gmarket, ktown4u, Mwave, etc). BLOOM*IZ will be released in Japan on the 20th by Tower Records, as @Titan3 pointed out, and then on the 21st they will start counting towards Hanteo sales. That's how I understand it, anyway.

    So, yes, those sales are Korea only.

    In both, altough I've always thought that the screen time during MVs have been fair. In this song I noticed that besides their parts in the verses the lines they get are all those filler lines and I think even more than half of the time of the song they are at the back and come back to the front when they have to sing. It's like their presence in this song and choreography couldn't be noticed in most of the song and the choreography. Altough I think that more than they getting less spotlight, it's that the other members got more for this song. That's why I said in my previous comment that it feels like Fiesta is focused on the K-line.

    just a small note, no mwave sales are likely to be recorded in the first week, the members have to sign all of the albums and then they have to be shipped, at best they will start counting the 2nd week forward, if not later.

    GNZ48's song was first performed at the Shonichi of Victoria.G (5th July 2019).
    Z Girls also used it in their instrumentals for "Streets of Gold" (released 29th July 2019).

    However, the oldest version I could find of this audio is of an indie artist (?) with the song "My Boo" from January 2018.

    If people are mad at IZ*ONE for 'stealing,' they should check out their own favs first [hehe]

    In terms of line distribution and MV exposure, its not perfect but certainly an improvement compared to previous releases.

    Ps. Hiichan's "olaga" in Spaceship was so cute❤️

    If there's a member that should be complaining about screen time it should be Hyewon but she deserves it because she lacks skills and hasn't really improved and to an extent Chaeyeon, because she's a decent singer and a fantastic dancer.

    On the other hand, I think the J-line got more than enough screen time this time around for Fiesta to the extent where I think they got lines BECAUSE they're the J-line. Eunbi, Chaewon, Yuri, Yujin always get more because they're the best performers.

    Also, I don't think any one of SakuNakoHii would want more lines to the detriment of the quality and vibe of the song. From my understanding of Kpop, the composers have the most say in who gets what lines based on their whole concept for the song.

    Therefore, I don't really get why fans fight over line distributions in IZONE though, they only have 12members (that's still a lot in Kpop)and they mostly work as a group unlike 48G where there are hundreds of members and each fight for their own interests to stand out and get into senbatsu regularly. (Unless of course you root for specific members rather than the whole group then I guess it's understandable)

    Maybe because Iz*One is based on "48G inspired" show which weirdly enough lead to "48G fan" type of behaviour which is far more common in Produce101 based group in compare with other KPop group?

    I think IOI fan used to argue that Chaeyeon have more prominent screentime in Dream Girls although Somi is the center.
