A2O SOUL's SUPERSTAR Gets Praise but Almost No Buzz on Melon Daily

A theqoo thread tracking A2O SOUL's "SUPERSTAR" on Melon's daily chart has drawn a pointed mix of praise and puzzlement. Users agree the song itself is strong, but several ask why the reaction around it is so quiet.

The post shared the track's Melon daily performance, with a second column showing its ranking. Ten comments followed, and they split fairly cleanly: admiration for the song and its chorus, confusion over the lack of traction, and a few hopeful predictions. One commenter even brought Lee Sooman, SM Entertainment's founder, into the conversation, using the group's slow start to joke about his long search for a male idol "dream team."

There is also a note of hope. One user says they can tell a SUPERSTAR boom is coming, while another suggests the group might do well in Turkey. Another asks for a more intense song next time, a small sign that fans already want to see what A2O SOUL does beyond this track.

    Even after combing through all of East Asia, it seems Lee Sooman still couldn't assemble a "dream team" of male idols.

      The dream team ended with TVXQ.
