Tbh I get why Hybe and JYP artist are very popular in Japan. Both the companies, staff and their artist actually put lots of hardwork in Japan promotions. The artist's have original Japanese tracks, new mvs, new concepts for their releases and concerts as well. And they even promote in Japanese radio, talk show and variety shows.
I'm actually happy for the artists cause they always do so much hardwork they deserve to be on the top.
