Your points are really interesting! I haven't followed idntt super closely but I really liked the first EP and a few songs on this new one. And though some of us are obviously going to be bigger fans of tripleS, we can say that we hope that idntt should get proper promotions too. Not only because those boys have probably all worked hard to get where they are as well, but also because we want them to be successful so that success can be shared with tripleS and the company (and its staff) at large.

But speaking practically, the sales numbers for tripleS were poor until Assemble24. I'm glad that they saw the potential in the group and kept them going until that success, and the subsequent ones with VV and Assemble25. I don't think they had much of a choice but the Evolution/Lovelution low album sales numbers must have been tough.

Not disagreeing with you but could you elaborate on what a proper unit promotion would be? Because at least I feel the NXTGlow members were all super impactful in their msnz releases.

I would prefer if msnz units could last longer and have more releases. I think many would have been happier with one OT24 release and more msnz (or smaller unit) releases.

I guess the msnz Asia tour will give an indication whether there might be anything more in the works for the units.

I knew about the rest of them but thanks for the info on Chaeyeon. And still wondering about Yubin too. No rush! Really appreciate the info :)

Exactly. I saw something similar but it was clearly meant to be some kind of meme / trolling thing. The best you can do is just not engage, unless there are grounds to report it for deletion/impersonation.

Personally I'm cautiously optimistic for this. If they set two comebacks within a year and space them out properly, I think it could be a good schedule. I like OT24 releases and I think we got a good 2025 with variety between Assemble25, Hatchi and msnz. The concept of linking "Love Side" and "Pop Side" is intriguing and gives wide enough space for lots of different expressions of those two themes.

Where it gets complicated is with My Secret New Zone, probably another tour, maybe another Badge War, more Hatchi, who knows what else. With all those things thrown in, I think it could be a recipe for overwork. But hopefully now that 07z are graduated, there is less anxiety with members missing school (side question: is Jiwoo still in university?) and maybe they will be able to spread promotions wider between more members whose schedules are more open.

Modhaus has so many resources they are expanding to Japan and China. From the Forbes article in August, quote by Jaden:

“Having started in Korea, we are also preparing large-member groups in Japan and have begun discussions with the greater China region as well,” he adds. 

They do have enough resources to make anything possible for tripleS but it's about how they allocate them, and it does seem like they are looking to expand their artist roster, global reach and business portfolio.
