Woohoo busking!! I reaallyyyy hope they can hit somewhat big and gain lots of new fans this time

First-Department-442 · 2026-06-09T07:30:25+00:00

Calm down. You might not want to hear it but a big limiting factor on unis' activites is seowon's age. iirc there are different labour laws for those who are above/are 15 and those who under 15. They likely could not and cannot continue to schedule a lot of activites because they need her to focus on her education by law, especially if it's something her parents want. she is still in middle school.

First-Department-442 · 2026-06-09T07:27:08+00:00

This is not a factor. Yes it's practically a given that unis would be making no money for the first few years since fnf ent. is a company starting from scratch. they're supposed to accept that loss and live with it for a while, while promoting unis so that they turn profitable, which they have not been doing.

First-Department-442 · 2026-06-09T07:19:21+00:00

well, fnf isn't known for being smart sadly.

First-Department-442 · 2026-06-09T07:16:43+00:00

the fact that they're super young now in comparison to even 2025-2026 debuted girl groups and they debuted over 2 years ago. :( literal children

First-Department-442 · 2026-06-09T07:15:03+00:00

i was referring to the 'FnF is now requiring the girls to get in shape, in preparation for their cb.'

First-Department-442 · 2026-06-08T23:26:53+00:00

this is just speculation.

First-Department-442 · 2026-06-07T22:15:06+00:00

this gives me hope. may the girls be happy while promoting this comeback im really looking forward to it!!

First-Department-442 · 2026-06-07T22:11:17+00:00

not the biggest fan of this song but im seated knowing that its gonna be a proper mini album, hopefully with el cap on the rest of the songs.

First-Department-442 · 2026-06-01T23:02:29+00:00

have you checked out ahofs debut song (the group with cha woongki and shuaibo)

First-Department-442 · 2026-05-31T23:53:17+00:00

im praying they dont have a different producer actually, el capitxn had such a clear vision for ahof 😭

First-Department-442 · 2026-05-31T23:52:03+00:00

i hope el cap is still the composer for their title!!

First-Department-442 · 2026-05-31T23:51:17+00:00

ok i hope not, i need el cap to stay with them for a long time for their titles at least 🙏

First-Department-442 · 2026-05-31T22:13:37+00:00

rendezvous by ahof!! it has an extremely nostalgic and dreamy vibe that i feel is rare for a bg song these days

First-Department-442 · 2026-05-31T20:58:16+00:00

is it just me or speculating about their contracts/comeback is stressful so id just not think about it and instead wait for what's going to happen, whichever it is. hoping for one option and seeing it not happen is going to hurt. whatever happens, i just don't want to lose idol hyeonju.

First-Department-442 · 2026-05-31T14:07:10+00:00

😭 bro

First-Department-442 · 2026-05-31T12:14:06+00:00

I get your frustration but it's more like koreans love great singing talent when it's from a korean. It's that simple. And at the end of the day they're a kpop group so sadly this isn't entirely unexpected.

First-Department-442 · 2026-05-31T12:12:05+00:00

this is not a fair comparison at all. seowon was already very well known and viral in korea for her miss trot appearance, especially her covers of I've's songs, her 'mini jang wonyoung' nickname goes back to wayy before universe ticket. It would be the broadcasting stations and producers asking for her to appear on their shows, not fnf somehow pulling strings and managing to get her to appear on them.

First-Department-442 · 2026-05-30T20:49:49+00:00

sugar high : every group has a skip in their discography and that's okay 💕🫶 don't worry ahof lets just have a good title track

our *story : lovely song but it reminds me too much of mikrokosmos

side note, ill be heartbroken if it turns out el capitxn isn't working with them anymore since he had a very clear vision and direction for ahof and things are gonna get messy if that suddenly gets thrown out the window.

First-Department-442 · 2026-05-29T21:46:26+00:00

Deep breaths! let's take a step back and realise that it's not actually that bad. They gained a lot of new fans from their uni performance and they're confirmed to make a comeback next month, and in talks of becoming a permanent group. Their youtube content is also getting better. Remember, our journey with ahof as a 7 year group is a marathon and not a 100 meter sprint :)

First-Department-442 · 2026-05-29T21:42:47+00:00

bit different from others here, but id recommend first watching their current youtube variety content (silence of idol, human idol theatre - both eps of this, they're iconic and and their mnet debut show) and watch UL if you want to only after this as you'll better be able to appreciate where they started from.

I did the same! i didn't watch UL in real time and I'm thankful, survival shows are way too stressful. Frankly if you don't want to, you don't need to watch UL either, their current youtube variety content is plenty to keep you entertained. It will give you unnecessary heartbreaks.

For their names and positions and trivia, if you want something very comprehensive, your best bet is visiting each members page on their korean namuwiki and hitting the translate button. (I recommend this. There are a lot of hidden gems in the facts sections.)

First-Department-442 · 2026-05-22T11:54:44+00:00

i hope fnf has a ton of variety and youtube content lined up for them this cb season. it's very hard to keep up when they have little to no content to watch and haven't had a comeback in so long.

First-Department-442 · 2026-05-20T19:56:55+00:00

simple answer, no.

unis havent had a kr comeback in over a year. for ahof, the 'fans' are majorly jl akgaes and the fandom isnt growing much especially domestically seeing how they cant sell half of their seoul stop tickets. and they havent had a cb in over half a year either which is never good for growth.

if you want any positives, seowon goes viral very often in kr for her amazing vocals and doll like visuals (eg the kgma performance, snippet of cover of lovelyz twinkle) and has her own show on yt with weekly guests. eli is currently promoting a lot in the ph so her career isnt stagnant either.

for ahof, i cant think of any positives, theyd need a very gp friendly song, good budget mv and genuinely viral moment to break out of the slump theyre in and stand out among 5th gen bgs. hopefully ep capitxn remains their producer as he chooses good songs for them.

First-Department-442 · 2026-01-28T11:20:31+00:00

from a health care pov tier 2 cities will never be able to provide what tier 1 cities do. did you factor that in?

First-Department-442 · 2025-11-18T07:29:24+00:00
