December leans toward Japanese releases, with broad spaces between dates rather than a continuous run. ME:I's single Rock & Roll Pretty opens the month on December 2, while the 9th brings singles and albums together around NMIXX's best album N=MIXX. The Japanese album lane carries on into December 15.
The calendar thins out after that mid-month point. Hi-Fi Un!corn's digital single on December 25 shifts the focus to Korea, breaking from the Japanese releases that fill the opening half. The gap between the 15th and 25th gives that change of region and format room to stand out.
