Speaking of comebacks, Nicole has a Japanese comeback on February 17th wit a song titled "Don't stop" sounds pretty good from the previews. Also a real Korean comeback in mid-March. The song is a cute/sexy style
and here's a lil big photo to go with.
Edit:

"When I'm Alone" by f(x) is a superb song in need of more love. Easily among their top 3 EP/LP closing songs. Simple, good line distribution, not over produced and the song is just in the pocket.
"Summer Love" isn't even in the conversation, but "Lollipop" and "훌쩍 (Lets Try)" are at the top of the list, with "Ending Page" either tied with "When I'm Alone," or coming in a bit behind in the final tally.
Depending on whether it proves to have longevity, it wouldn't surprise me if "When I'm Alone" finds its way to the top spot in my rankings. Still, "Lollipop" is a lot of fun, and I love the progression and layering in "훌쩍 (Lets Try)."

I love this performance of 'Someone like U.'
That intro song is rough though. At least they look cute. Ahyoung without backing vocals singing a ballad.... 1:24 is so tragic. Of all albums Dal Shabet has released this was like the worst one to actually have them perform a full 3 minute intro. Sigh.

Sooo, apparently Little Psy, who was diagnosed a brain cancer 2 years ago with only 6 months of life left, is still alive, after he recovered from the cancer last year.
Now he is back at it:

BTS photoshoot for the concert. I hope those individual pictures get released at some point, because they look great.
Annd yeah, the album is their weakest yet, which is a shame because they all have been very good. Oh well, at least the single is amazingly good.

Twice is on fire. But how is wonder girls sale so low.
the intro song is just too much... someone like U is so good though

Twice had some 12 fansignings.
The others considered rookies because during 2015 they didn't completed full 1 year yet, so they consider the entire 2015.
Taeyeon considered (solo) she would be second.
And? Sales are sales.
JYP girl group beating SM's girl group is surprising, and with one year less of promo. It puts under the light how messy was Red Velvet's debut. Not even SM can get away with debuting a group without proper hype building before it.
Yep, Twice is the blueprint of how to debut a girl group. They were doing things everywhere since debut, Weekly Idol, V app, Instagram, Meet&Greet, Fanmeets, CFs
Another interesting point, I know that Miss A didn't get a lot to work with, but Twice has sold more than 4 times more albums than them, and they are still charting.
And fansigns are not a very important factor. Bestie, 9muses, OMG, CLC, Gfriend,... all these groups do fansigns and look where are their sales...

Yep, that's true. Now I want to see the digital charts, it's going to be funny seeing Gfriend over some stablished girl groups.
I don't know, it's hard to discount fansigns. Of course the difference between Twice and the rest is that they were constantly promoted by other means, so it means that more people will show up for their fansigns as opposed to other groups. But the potential of fansigns for physical album sales is much better (and enhanced when you're actually well known). You're practically guaranteed physical album sales at fansigns, and the more and more you put yourself out there, like JYP managed to actually do with Twice, the more impact fansigns are going to have on your sales.
I'm pretty sure it's also what sets male groups from female groups, you practically have each fan girl buying 5~ albums each just to have a chance at touching their fave(s)
As someone said, to put the figures into perspective, I'm not trying to diminish what they accomplished. But fan signs are important on this regard, and with 12, it's one per week on average since debut. Checking GAON numbers we confirm that, sales figures of their 3rd month of sales are very near to their 2nd month which in turn are not very different from their very 1st one. Impossible without the fan signs.
Of course their debut was totally different from RV. And even they, RV, were totally different from any SM group, where there was always a longer build-up before debut. Whatever was SM reasons to do it like that (was it f(x) only?) surely they are now regaining the time "lost". Twice is, however, doing it properly since the start.
So if fansigns are this money making machine that sell albums like hot cakes, why aren't Red Velvet (hell, or every group) doing them, then? And why the others that do them aren't that successful?
You both also forgot that since it's a 9 member girl group, fans would have to get at least 9 different albums to get all the photocards. Shady Twice and their schemes to trick the Gaon charts.
Also, the meet&greet signed CD. This manipulation needs to stop, #EverybodyKnows

Sales are sales, they outsold Red Velvet in 3 months, you can move on now.
but but but it doesn't count because
Seriously though, as someone who has never in the history of the universe liked or cared about a JYP group before now, and who literally watched their MV for the first time ever three days ago, they seem pretty cool. If nothing else I'm impressed that JYP managed to source three attractive Japanese females from somewhere, quite an accomplishment.

RV had 2 major releases this year, Twice just 1.
Outsold what exactly? Sales are sales.
JYP is doing great promoting these girls that's for sure.
There's a signed version also avaiable at several retailers, they seriously made the most out of a first release like this one.

Every group does fan signs but fitting that many in, in a short period of time? Also taking into account all those other factors too, just because you do a fan sign doesn't mean you'll sell a lot. Like I said when you consider all the other factors of popularity that was invested into Twice, then you can see how fan signs could have aided the physical album sales.
The more popular you are the more people you can get to come to your fansign and have more people buy more albums. The less popular you are the well its kinda obvious. And being more popular means a person would buy more to see you rather than just one, to try and beat out others who only bought one.
Everybody knows how much was invested into Twice, but everything you mentioned besides fan signs were relatively known. Knowing how many they held could put that number in perspective. And all I was doing was speculating why they sold a lot because you seemed so curious in the first place.

Not sure if the Chinese can vote, but that might explain it. Not many Chinese contestants afaik. I've heard of this girl before the contest though. Some people seem hyped for her, though I'm not sure if it's because of talent, visuals, personality or just because she's not Korean. Her nickname is Pinky. Her intro video and her hidden box video.

They're average for Japanese girls, honestly.
