-Oh, congratulations!

-There's also a ranking for first-week sales...?

-People are ranking everything these days.

-Who even looks at this kind of thing?

-Wow, I'm surprised that NewJeans ranked #1 here. I thought it would be an SM group.

-Wow, it sold really well.

-Wow, they sold incredibly well. Is it because they have a lot of international fans? Or only domestic sales are counted in these rankings?

-I wonder if they had a bit of a boost from international fans since they have one Indonesian member in this group...

-I'm jealous.

-I also bought one to celebrate SMNGG's debut. It's selling well.

-? That's fascinating

HEARTS2HEARTS reveal their fandom name

 

[INFO] Nama Fandom Hearts2Hearts "S2U" 하츄#Hearts2Hearts #하츠투하츠 #H2H#TheChase #Hearts2Hearts_TheChase

— Hearts2Hearts Indonesia (@H2H_INA) February 24, 2025

S2U - Hachu 

theqoo 

-Ah... S2 resembles the shape of a heartㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ That's cute.

-Whoa... That's actually a great fandom nameㅋㅋ

-Oh... I'm not a fan. I didn't know they revealed their fandom name right away... That's a really cute name!

-ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Cute as f*ck.

-Looks like idols these days reveal their fandom names right away after their debut...

-That's a great choice. It's such a cute name.

-Hachu is really cute... It's kinda surprising that no other idol groups used that name all this time.

-It's going to be hard to search that name on the internet...
ㄴWho even worries about searching for a fandom name on the internet?ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-I'm a MY and trust me, you’ll never need to search your own fandom name, so don’t worryㅋㅋ Hachu is a really cute name.

-What does S2U mean?
ㄴS2 looks like a heart shape. So S2 (Heart) + U (You) = S2U (HeartU/Hachu)

-Ah... So, they reveal their fandom name right after their debut? (I'm a SONE)

-Seems easier to search than MY.

-Hello. I'm Hachu🩵🤍

KiiiKiii 'I DO ME' & HEARTS2HEARTS 'The Chase' Melon HOT 100 entry rankings

 

Neither song made it into the TOP 100

theqoo

-I think KiiiKiii's going to climb higher.

-KiiiKiii's song is more public-friendly... I hope it climbs even higher.

-HEARTS2HEARTS' song is really good.

-I think KiiiKiii is going to enter the TOP 100 today.

-Huh...? The rankings are quite similar?? I thought one of them generated way more buzz??

-It's really nice seeing both groups rise together. Go girls!!

-I hope HEARTS2HEARTS does better in the future.. They've attracted too much unnecessary controversy alreadyㅜㅜ

-I think both songs are going to climb higher since not a lot of people know the songs are already out yet. Especially since both groups are going to perform on music shows soonㅎ I really like KiiiKiii's song.

-I can't wait to see their performances on music shows.

-HEARTS2HEARTS' song actually sounds better than I expected.

-I really like KiiiKiii's songㅋㅋㅋ I'm currently listening to it on Youtube Music right nowㅋㅋ

-I don't know much about this... But how do songs enter Melon TOP 100?? Do they need a higher ranking?? #1?

-I don't know about other things, but KiiiiKiii's vocals are beyond my expectations. They seem to be really talented.

-KiiiKiii's song is a masterpiece........

-I'm putting HEARTS2HEARTS' song on repeat.. I love it♡

-The debut showcase stage makes the song sound better than in the MV. They should've emphasized more on the conceptual and dreamy vibes.

-Wait... One member is completely covered by other members in the ending post. Is that okay??

-They really need to change the ending pose; One member is completely covered in the back.

-The song is really good. It's their debut stage and yet they already perform so well.

-I'm really curious about their performances in music shows.

-SM groups usually gain popularity on their second or third release rather than their debut... I'm sure they'll probably find a way somehow.

-The song is giving Red Velvet vibes.

-What's the name of the member with the sky blue crop top??

-Why do they keep using a 7-member formation when there are 8 members...?

-Carmen has the best facial expressions on stage.

-The song is actually good. It sounds even better when you listen to it while watching the performance.

-Yuha's voice in 'Butterflies' is really good... Carmen looks like she has a lot of charms.

-Carmen is so pretty. She also seems to sing well too. Carmen really stands out.

-This doesn't sound like SM at all... Where did their unique style go?

-This completely sounds like SM, though...? I'm so confused looking at the comments...

The video that is currently trending #1 in real-time (Good Day '88 Nation)

 

theqoo

-You can tell that GD is really kindㅋㅋㅋ Kim Soohyun has a great variety show skills.

-This lineup is really fresh and fun to watch.

-It was actually really entertaining.

-'Good Day' is truly the best when it comes to generating buzz. GD always trends no matter what he does, but I can't deny that '88 Nation is really fun too.

I watched this because of Kim Soohyun. But the 88-liners are so wholesome and heartwarming that they got me hooked on this show.

-This is very entertaining. This is such a unique lineup that I haven't seen on other variety shows before, so it feels fresh.

-'88 Nation was really entertaining. The slight awkwardness made it even more amusing. Kim Soohyun worked so hard here.

-I finally have a variety show that I'm watching live again.

-Didn't 'Good Day' also trend last week?? Well, this show is really getting a lot of buzz. Congratulations.

-I love '88 Nation. They're really entertainingㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ They're all very likable. I want to watch the longer version.

-I wish '88 Nation was longer... I hope they do a spin-off or something like that. I really like Kim Soohyun.

-Everything GD is in becomes trending.

-I've watched this show for two weeks in a row now, it's really fun.

-Anything GD appears in just goes straight to trendingㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-There's no way this video wouldn't trend. It's not easy to see this lineupㅋㅋㅋ Kim Soohyun becomes even more likableㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Taeho PD-nim, please make a travel show with the '88-liners.

HEARTS2HEARTS' stage ending draws attention on Theqoo for being 'too cruel'

 

There’s one more member behind the member in the center.

theqoo

-I mean... You can't even see the member in the back.

-Agree. I think they're going to fix this.

-I hope SM Ent. fixes this before they go on music shows. They could've made everyone visible in the endingㅜㅜ

-Are they doing this on purpose?? What even is that??

-There are too many members.

-They should've made that one member sit in the front. Anyway, I'm sure they're going to adjust this.

-SM Ent. always prioritizes the center member, so this is not surprising at all.

-This looks like a solo artist's stageㅋㅋ They're really mean.

-It's not like that one member is a backup dancer, what is that?ㅜㅜ Well... EXO also had Kai get solo endings in their early debut days....

-Huh?? They should make every member visible in the endingㅜㅜ

-Hu... This is so cruel. This is their debut song.

-They could just have two members in the center since they have an even number of members... Why are they doing this??

-SM Ent, if you're seeing the public's reaction, fix it.

-The member in the back must be so upset.

-Whoa... This is their debut title track, though... Or is this just some noise marketing?ㅋㅋㅋ
