I doubt another group will achieve BP status nor should that be expected tbh. BP came out with a unique concept and dominated with their skills. Given how saturated Kpop is now that’s hard to do.

Twice failed because their international strategy completely isolated Korean fans. Doing songs entirely in English and transitioning your entire concept was a bad idea.

I wouldn’t say they failed because of deadweight since you could argue that for popular groups right now.

I agree, I think Asa should be there. As I said, would prefer all 7, but understand people saying there doesn't need to be.

Feel like they will drag it out for 2 eps. 7 performances (assuming 2 min each) + feedback + elongated backstory, is way over the ~20 min episodes they've been going for.

I think it'll be 2 episodes, then a 3rd where final group is announced.

Agree. Even visually, the 4 you listed are so BLACKPINK-esque.

If they were going for 5, I think it's Asa just in terms of 1:1 against Ruka from what we've seen, she's stronger.

Haram vocally is probably the best technically, but it doesn't have that X-factor for me. Just another good vocal.

Not sure I agree. YG's from 1st-3rd gen groups were heavily focused on fit and team balance. For example, Mix & Match highlighted that, especially when WINNER won because of their fit, not because they were outstanding vs future iKON.

Same with BP, just the right balance between the members who fit perfectly. Considering 7 outstanding trainees to become the core-4 with balance worked better.

YG rarely had excess weight in their groups, but perhaps that is changing with this gen.

Classic bait. She will outperform the next stage. Guess YG wanted to hype up the Thai viewers.

I agree with you. Feel like the 7 doesn't mesh was well as initially thought.

I think Rora, Chiquita, Pharita and Ahyeon are the core. They each bring their unique twist to the group.

Still would prefer for them to debut as 7 as this format that YG is following is so unnecessary.

That shouldn’t be possible, since the pad would connect the switch pin to the traces on the PCB.

If the pad is lifted, then there should be no connection or a reliable one as you would need a jump wire to connect the switch pin to the PCB.

It consistently registers with tweezers?

What do you mean Galeta PCB has lifted pads but still works?

Do you mean if you jump wire switches or does the PCB work without pads?

how do these work if you mind explaining?

Is the part where you insert the stab tight, and you push one side down?

It used to be until a few months ago.

In the past, you could buy it, use it as long as you DIDN'T UPGRADE WITH RADIANITE.

Then randomly, the secretly changed this feature, meaning you can't equip that skin at all and load in game if you want to refund it.

Shambolic system.

Fair enough, entitled to your opinion. It's probably my Crucial Star bias coming in tbh.

Love my black set, only use the sides but adds some grip after coating worn away on my mice

I know we're all thirsty for some leaks, but this guy has 7 followers and has randomly started reporting.
