"The rookie boy band group 'XDinary Heroes' is set to debut at the end of this year and four more teams are scheduled to debut over the next two years, so rookie momentum is the most abundant," researcher Lee emphasized.
On the other hand, JYP Entertainment recorded its highest-ever performance in the third quarter of this year due to its high growth in overseas music sales. Starting in the fourth quarter, each artist is expected to actively engage in activities starting with TWICE and resume offline performances, which is expected to increase the record further.
