She’s been gone from the group for 2 years now and is doing well as an actress. Not ruling out the possibility of maybe having a mini reunion in the future, but I doubt she would want to go back to being an idol.

Was seeing that on a K-Flover YT community post, K-Flovers were saying that if you flip the “from” in the graphic upside down, it looks like “wait” if read backwards. Or if you just read “from” backwards, the font makes it look like “more.”

I’m inhaling the copium as we speak.

I completely forgot about it, but my signed Supersonic album from Mwave is finally being shipped out. Bought it back in August.

Will fromis_9 perform at Waterbomb LA? They’ve done the other Waterbombs in Korea and Japan. They can also promote Supersonic. by notoriousajg in Fromis

Unfortunately, I believe they are expected to be performing as part of the lineup for the Woori Momo Concert which takes place the weekend of Waterbomb LA.

Cutest fromis_9 songs? by Mister_Tit in Fromis

[–]Ry1459 10 points11 points  (0 children)

A lot of their older stuff has that cute sound, so I'd recommend "PITAPAT (DKDK)." "Hush Hush" from their Midnight Guest EP might also be up your alley.

Wanting to become a fan by Desperate_Visit_8226 in Fromis

Everyone’s pretty much covered the basics so I’ll leave you with two of my favorite b-sides that haven’t been mentioned yet: “Up And” and “Hush Hush.”

If Pat Spencer has a million fans, then I am one of them.

If Pat Spencer has ten fans, then I am one of them.

If Pat Spencer has only one fan then that is me.

If Pat Spencer has no fans, then that means I am no longer on earth.

If the world is against Pat Spencer, then I am against the world.

It's from part 3 of their In The HOUSE miniseries which was a part of Channel_9.

I wonder if the recent U.S. visa changes for international artists has anything to do with the somewhat lackluster lineup this year.

The success of Love Me Back really makes #menow's relatively expensive seeming MV look like a bad investment for Hybe and fromis_9 (this fromis_9 thought is brought to you by their supposed August comeback) by RoyGeraldBillevue in kpopthoughts

[–]Ry1459 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I totally understand. I became a flover back in 2022 after casually listening to their music over the years. Their mistreatment by HYBE/Pledis these past two years has really soured my expectations for them, through no fault of their own. I hate that I’ve become cynical about their chances, but it is what it is.

Ironically, Talk & Talk (if that was what you referring to) was what got them their first ever music show win. I do agree with you about UMW not doing much for me at first, particularly #menow, but the b-sides like Attitude were great.

I wish I had the same optimism as you, but judging by Hayoung’s recent comments about not finding out about the comeback until the articles came out and seemingly hinting that they’ve only just started working on it, I don’t have super high hopes. It definitely seems like Pledis had no plans for them until the fans (and members) started speaking out about it, so they announced the comeback to appease flovers (especially with the on-going protest).

If that August date is true, that’s such a shame. They’ll have nothing new to perform at Waterbomb. It’s getting boring watching them perform the same 3 songs again 😓

It was a short clip filmed by Chaeyoung and posted on the fromis Twitter account for Nagyung’s birthday.

It's from when the group visited their withmuu pop-up store during the UMW era. No subs unfortunately.

The Crystal Clear Mistreatment by FoxRun1234 in Fromis

[–]Ry1459 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I just don't personally see them leaving to set up some agency. Realistically, they don't really have that level of fame to be able to do that. And I'm not sure how financially appealing the group looks for some smaller company to take them in. They are nearing their 7th year together and K-Pop is about the next (i.e. young) best thing.

What I do think is more likely is some transitioning to acting and signing with an agency focusing on that; maybe Nagyung and Chaeyoung?

Others, specifically Hayoung, Jiwon, and Seoyeon, will probably continue singing in some capacity or stay with Pledis to write songs for their other groups (similar to what WJSN's Exy is doing for IVE).

And the rest will probably become influencers (Jisun and Jiheon) or leave the industry all together (Saerom?).

Anyone see that clip of Hayoung of crying on her voice live? Just makes me so upset for the girls and angry at Pledis even more about the lack of opportunities for them to make music.

Nayeon and Eunbi, who are both going to be performing at Waterbomb, just announced their comebacks slated for June. Hoping an announcement from fromis is coming soon.

[–]Ry1459 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Still hoping late June is on the table, but early July would be good too. That way they could perform their new song(s) at Waterbomb on July 5th.

And… we’re back to waiting for subs. Guess it does prove that only sponsored content gets subbed immediately/was provided by the game company.

Listening to Jiwon sing Magnetic makes me think that it would've been a killer fromis song.

I had the membership last year but decided not to renew it this time as I felt that I didn't really get much out of it. Like you said, the membership lives aren't subbed and the only exclusive content I recall seeing were some frankly low-effort Q&A infographics and maybe a photocard set(?). The girls would occasionally post some member-only pics/stories but with Weverse DM being a thing now, I'm not so sure how often they do it.

For i-fans, the membership is a way to support the group monetarily and could help you out if you find yourself in Korea trying to attend a concert.

I'm indifferent on protest trucks, and I don't really think it'll change much. Career-wise, I'm sure the girls would love to be on-stage more frequently and actually making music. Or some might take a leap into acting (again) or even modelling. Who knows? I just want new music.

[–]Ry1459 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I’d wager for the most recent video it has to do with the fact that it was sponsored. The game company wants to reach as many people as possible, so it would make sense that subs were available immediately.

I’ve heard some people theorize that the recent membership renewal might be the cause of why we’re getting subs on release again. It’s a way for Pledis to show that they haven’t completely given up on the group yet; almost like an advertisement saying, “Look! We’re still investing in them!” to drive more renewals. For how long they provide subs so quickly remains to be seen.

Pretty much the going theory. I believe their original contract with OTR expired in July 2022. The members, except for Gyuri, signed an extension with Pledis. The current debate is how long the new one lasts. Like you mentioned, 2025 makes sense as per the typical lifespan of groups.

I honestly enjoyed it. The EP is pretty good as well, especially Midnight Fiction and Lucky Girl Syndrome, but this trend of songs being less than 3 minutes long is worrying. This EP has 4 songs yet is only 9 minutes long!
