Each show has its own scoring system, and points reset every week so it is very important to keep up with support activities (buying albums, streaming, voting, sns) especially during the first week of comebacks as well as throughout the entire promotions, and also to collect points on voting apps during downtimes. As you can see, Digitals is always worth the most, so please check out the Digitals page to learn how you can help in this category.
