How Korean CDs are "Different"
Despite the shrinking business of Compact Discs(CDs) for music albums worldwide, K-Pop still gains a foothold in the CD industry and doesn't allow its business to be dwarfed by digital competitors. Around the world, there has been a steady decrease in the demand for compact discs. With that, many recording studios are taking a step back and analyzing supply and demand. This is always the case among many companies and nowadays they even prioritize digital releases over CD shipments and exports. They fear that if their CDs don’t sell as they have expected, they will definitely lose a hefty sum of money. But with the booming growth of K-Pop, it is no secret that the Koreans have taken a different route in terms of their strategy. Sure, they might prioritize digital releases first, but that is because it is through digital means wherein consumers can get a hold of what they want right away. That does not mean, though, that the companies are unable to make huge profits from CD sales. The companies also give just as much attention to the CDs they produce as the songs they make. To provide a glimpse, the business of selling CDs needs a lot of support from social media. The Koreans generate this solid support by making their CDs unique. They answer to the demands of their fans as much as they can, and sometimes even include special tracks in the album. In this scenario, the Korean music industry holds up on its own because there is still high demand and profit being earned when it comes to selling CDs. When comparing sales—especially physical CD sales versus digital sales, the Korean music industry does not let its guard down. Even though Korea is one of the countries that led the revolution in our lifestyle through digital content, physical CD sales is still a booming business. Despite some concerns about CDs being phased out in the near future, this current phenomenon among K-Pop fans is still on-going and here to stay. But even though the same songs can be downloaded through the internet, what is all the fuss with buying an actual and physical CD? In a way, the fans feel like they have a deeper connection with the artist through these different events—so that is why they still patronize CDs released by their favorite K-Pop artist. One more reason is that Korean artists dare to make each CD different tailored to the diverse group of fans that they have. The CDs can contain different posters, maybe even different bonus songs, and sometimes they even hold fan meetings for purchasing their album. These artists make more effort to make their fans feel special and heard that’s why the feeling between artist and fan is mutual. Another part of giving back to their fans is through frequent visits. One example could be how Lee Min Ho has repeatedly came back here to the Philippines and still never gets tired of doing so. He has been here in the Philippines thrice already, and even though the last time he was here recently was just to meet up with fans, the event was even hosted in the Big Dome. Furthermore, Korean artists are easier to reach. They are free to communicate with their fans despite security protocols and concerns. That said, their admiration and respect for the artist shoots up because they feel that as a fan, their artist knows that they exist. The saying that it is more difficult to gain new customers rather than keep them is really applicable in this topic. With today’s diverse kinds of culture, roots and origin, Korean entertainment agencies really have to step up in order to keep their customers because it will be more challenging to reel in those who really live by another set of likes and interests. But for most artists, it is not just about business, but rather it is about keeping the connection alive by satisfying the demands of their fans.
