We know not everyone has time or money to stream…
HOWEVER that doesn’t mean there is nothing you can do. Every little act of contribution matters.
YouTube is the most important platform of video streaming. Everyday, people from all over the world use it and it has become an essential part of the Kpop system.
In fact, YouTube views have become a way to determine a group popularity.
Groups with big fandoms reach 10M views easily while us, Starlights need extra work. To be able to compete with more popular groups, we need everyone’s help.
Here are some of the reasons you should stream actively on YouTube :
It’s free.
No need to worry about languages issues. It’s great for International fans!
It’s easy. Click on a video and just let it play
More content can be unlocked. @RealVIXX always gives a challenge to Starlights after every comeback. Reaching 1M can get us a dance practice or an alternative MV. What kind of fan doesn’t want to see more of his/her favorite idol ? Isn't that a good reason to stream ?
Reaching a milestone = getting one more article on a kpop website. There is a race going on in kpop nowadays, to get the highest number of views in the shortest possible time. That is partially due to Kpop websites making these milestones some kind of achievement and giving these groups more attention. Each milestone is worth an article. This might seem like nothing but it is very important for a group to be on the good side of the headlines. We need to stay relevant and prove Vixx’s popularity, so this kind of articles can make a difference.
It counts for Music Shows ! As most of you may already know, Korean music shows (Inkigayo etc.) count YouTube music video views in their calculation for the weekly winners. Views are converted to points along with SNS popularity. Sometimes YouTube views can even be as important as digital streaming. It is then very important to stream frequently and increase the views.
Every view counts. When you watch the number of views of the MV on Youtube, you might get easily discouraged because it doesn’t seem to rise much. However, as we are keeping close track of the viewcount, we can guarantee you that every view is important and that is why we should keep doing our best 🌟
More views = more exposure = more success
