Just want to put it out there for U.S. #Kpop fans, in general, the touring space is VERY crowded right now in North America. Not just in K-pop (but this is also very relevant to K-pop) and 2023 is already shaping up to be exciting with many shows if the world stays chill lol

I've been conservative with my predictions on ATEEZ since the last album that was available physically in the U.S. was not in traditional retailers and it led to skewed predictions. But more traditional retailers are being used this time and I went to a direct source this time :)

📈 Early industry predictions have j-hope's 'Jack in the Box' debuting in the Top 20 of the Billboard 200 with 21,500 overall units with around 60% of units coming from streaming. More digital sales and heavier streaming can lead to a larger debut

For the record: IVE's 'Love Dive' was promoted via a press release by Capitol Records (under Universal Records)
Like Wonyoung mentioned in their media showcase, IVE has been receiving calls for international partners. Both Korean and U.S. labels confirm nothing is official yet.
