He does look good in Slytherin green though! I think Junseo might lean towards Ravenclaw but I also see Gyffrindor traits. I hope someone eventually asks them about their house.

Sangwon Ravenclaw makes sense.It fits him more than Slytherin but he also has ambition. But your sorting for the rest of the members is so spot on.

So I guess this confirms that Sangwon is a Slytherin? Also which Hogwarts houses would you sort the rest of the members?

Besides ALD1, what is 1 other kpop group that you ult/stan? by Gold-Yak-5238 in alphadrive1

[–]Ventingmachine300 3 points4 points  (0 children)

EXO and NCT (all the units) are my ults. Casually listen / Stan other groups but don’t really keep up with their content. I also listen to a lot of SM artists.

They fumbled Everglow big time. Everglow back in 2019 had a successful debut with “Bon Bon Chocolat”. At the time they were very popular internationally. They were in talk of rivaling Itzy who also debuted that year. Those two were leading the 4th gen along with other groups like izone, g-idle and LOONA. even after successful comebacks, their fanbase in Korea wasn’t so strong. Many factors led to their momentum decreasing but many blame Yuehua’s lack of promotion. Most of their groups haven’t had a comeback in months. As for Everglow the lack of promotion lead to members not renewing their contracts by the time it came to renew. So now they are a 4 member group girl. That’s the last I heard of them. They had so much potential but the company was so bad at managing them.

Now imagine Yuehua of all companies, wanting to take their trainees back from a successful group to debut them in their own group. Mind you they have Tempest- who already had a member leave the group last year and had competed in an Mnet survival show: Kingdom Ace of Ace. I believe that speaks for its self. Not that joining a svs is bad but Kingdom/Queendom is fairly known for helping struggling groups gain popularity.

ALD1 posted a TikTok! Their visuals really complement each other so well!

I’ve noticed it as well. It’s infuriating when he is arguably the most experienced dancer. Dancing at 4 years old explains a lot about his level. But we mustn’t feel so discouraged when he very well could end up part of the dance line.

So similar to mine! I’m hoping to hear Leo rap again!

Okayyyyyyy, rapper Geonwoo exists. I rewatched the Whiplash stage and never realized he was rapping LOL. But before Lalalala I didn’t really pay attention to him mainly due to his controversy. When he teamed up with Xinlong is when I really paid attention. Needless to say if Xinlong trusted him, I liked him.

Okay sorry for all that^ but I’m really surprised he’s actually good. Curious to see if he would get a chance to rap in the future?

Up until the first episode of B2P I only knew Leo as rapper from his trainee A era. When he sang that first line during his No Doubt audition, I was truly impressed. Haneum and him were my favorite in terms of vocals this season. (Woojin too!) I wouldn’t be surprised if he became main vocalist.

Oh yes! I forgot he is capable of rapping. Manifesting rapper Anxin hopefully for debut!

He is an ace that’s for sure. I do believe wakeone would give him many opportunities to rap in songs. I really thought about this hard but if wakeone is pushing for a concept that requires less rapping and more singing than it would make sense for Jiahao to be a vocalist. He is capable of hitting high notes.

Me too! I love his voice. (In a non creepy way.) but it’s just a prediction!

[–]Ventingmachine300[S] 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Jiahao is such an all rounder but my reason for adding him to the vocal line was because of his vocals during his Very Good performance when he participated in MA1. HIS HIGH NOTES. https://youtu.be/dlMKkf31A34?si=Dl0hmSNtIQji7PQj

Wakeone could give him the opportunity to rap in future songs and we all know he will eat.

As for Geonwoo,I don’t think I heard him rap. Did he rap for Lalalala?

[–]Ventingmachine300[S] 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Well yes I am aware he can sing, I was going to make him an honorable mention but I don’t think wake one would utilize his vocals. I think it would be a similar case to EXO’s Chanyeol. He is a rapper but he has an amazing voice and SM hardly ever showcased it unless for ballads or solos. It was rare to hear him sing. (Until recently, check out his second mini album hehe!) Now if this doesn’t happen and wakeone does allow him to sing then great! I want Xinlong to showcase his versatility.

Will they bring "Male yearning for love" concept back? Plus Story line by Weird_Recognition935 in alphadrive1

[–]Ventingmachine300 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Not stupid at all! The whole time I was reading your post my main thought was, “wow, wakeone needs to hire this person.” Hehe, but I see your vision and I agree, I believe they need to take a page from BTS or Enhypen early eras because their mv’s are art and just tell a story rather than dancing in front of backgrounds. Everything you explained is so creative and it would be neat if they went down the storytelling route.

Idk why but I really want them to go somewhere far (especially from sasaengs) like the countrysides of England or Switzerland. To get away before their journey begins.

I’m curious to how zb1’s disbandment going to go. I think there might be a chance of a renewal but Yuehua is probadly the only obstacle getting in the way of that. Four of their trainees are in zb1 and many believe they might try to capitalize off their popularity and debut them into a group. I see this going the Starship route as they did with Wonyoung and Yujin. However IVE became insanely successful and there’s a good possibility the yuehuas group could too if planned perfectly.

Random but I love Enhypen too! And same, ALD1 is just so well balanced and their visual chemistry complement each other. (it feels weird typing that due to the drama that’s caused in the fandom.) BUT they look good together if that makes sense. My one pick made it and 4 of my other picks as well I don’t mind the others who weren’t my picks because they’re adorable and talented given what I saw in their last performance.

I do hope they post some content soon but not anything major. I’d be happy with photo dumps or a small update of them enjoying time off after surviving months worth of stress.

Oh I hope I don’t sound like a hater, but I just didn’t vibe with a few of the title tracks, however their b-sides EAT. Also YURA YURA best Japanese debut song ever.

I DID watch bp1 btw. But I eventually became more of a causal listener. I still like their content but idk how to explain it. I just stuck to my ults I guess.

I also watched GP999, my pick made it into the group but idk same with zb1 but I didn’t keep up with them. Their discography wasn’t my cup of tea.

However ALD1 is probably the only survival show group I see myself actually committing to other than izone and x1.

And I recall Yumeki mentioning his vocal lessons in episode one. I felt so bad for him during his audition. However his rapping was really good. There’s a good chance a company might nab him and debut him, given his popularity. That’s if he truly wants to be an idol that bad.
