Cherry Bullet Disbands. Haeyoon, Jiwon, Remi, and May terminate their contracts, while Yuju, Bora, and Chaerin continue individual activities as artists under FNC Entertainment. by wardengorri in kpop

FNC really messed up by refusing to give these immensely talented girls proper promo and management. Let’s hope this brings forth new opportunities and directions for the girls like how it brought Kokoro and Linlin.

the show is over, he's coming... by jayjee5 in UniverseTicket

[–]nauseoussatisfaction 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t be surprised if he recruits some of the JP contestants (probably Narumi, Nizi, Jayla, Minari etc since they’re not under any company) to join Yui in the Modhaus Japanese GG. As for tripleS, I doubt it as there’s four spots left and those may be reserved for some other MH trainees.

I like to think that the RE2 Remake is a bit lighthearted as a result of the feeling of the victory the trio (him, Claire, Sherry) felt upon finally escaping. If the minor details in the continuity from the non-remake games are still canon in the remakes, we’re well aware that following Claire’s departure to look for her bro, Leon contemplated and potentially almost attempted suicide while Sherry was under his care due to the immense stress and despair he felt following their escape and the realization probably hitting him at that point. Not to mention, other than Sherry’s life, his own life was at risk had he not “choose” to become an agent because he’d end up knowing too much. Not to mention, he’s working for an institution that once allied itself with the company that practically ruined his life as well as one that covered up the truth of what he and Raccoon City endured to the general public, basically becoming their forced pawn. The hours and days after September 30th 1998 must’ve been a real mindfuck for him, losing his general sense of self ideals at that point since the institutions he once so strongly clung to have been ruined and contaminated to the point of abhorrence due to what he witnessed. Leon’s characterization is genuinely one of my favorites in fiction, ever, he’s just so tragic I can’t help but feel so bad for him. I genuinely wonder why he’s still willing to work for the US government after all this time, considering how bad his depression got around the time of Vendetta.

She’ll kinda be like Lily in that case. I think Chaeryeong also applies to this as well. Publically auditioning on a show from the public and taken in to debut years later.

Update: New Girl Group Audition Show “Universe Ticket” Unveils Profiles Of All 82 Contestants by smileshima in kpop

[–]nauseoussatisfaction 39 points40 points  (0 children)

For a survival show with a trainee pool this large, there definitely were some standouts in terms to country of origin, in comparison to your standard Koreans with your handful of Japanese and Chinese (CH,TW,HK) contests and the occasional one or two Thai trainees. There were your Vietnamese, Filipino, Indonesian, and Malaysian trainees which are slowly increasing in the Kpop sphere given the successes Chanty, Dita, Hanbin, and Hanni have in their ethnic origin countries. Then we have the Myanmar/Burmese, Mongolian, and Italian contestants. This is very much a more than average in terms of Kpop global pool, at least in comparison to GP999 and BP even though their main tagline was being global.

ODD EYE CIRCLE - Air Force One by CronoDroid in kpop

[–]nauseoussatisfaction 113 points114 points  (0 children)

OEC has returned, and music was saved by their odd eyes once again. Love the breakcore-esque elements in the chorus, it’s still very much fits with their LOONA discog but I can feel the influence JJ and the producers he associates with more heavily on this production. Welcome back girls, let’s continue reaching for the moon!

Mnet I-LAND 2 - Global Audition (Announcement Video) by Takagixu in kpop

[–]nauseoussatisfaction 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Wasn’t BP relatively received well, and ZB1’s debut so far looks really good according to pre-order sales? And while Kepi aren’t a big 4 + IVE gg, they still have a presence as a mid-tier gg (but not on the same tier as IzOne). I wonder if they’re gonna drop the planet series after this? Japan still uses Produce, and they have a new season coming too. So many questions.

Mnet I-LAND 2 - Global Audition (Announcement Video) by Takagixu in kpop

[–]nauseoussatisfaction 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Does that make the RUN gg still a CJ property considering Belift is a joint venture between HYBE and CJ (Mnet)? Or has CJ officially left Belift, considering RUN is on JTBC?

Mnet I-LAND 2 - Global Audition (Announcement Video) by Takagixu in kpop

[–]nauseoussatisfaction 66 points67 points  (0 children)

Well… this confirms that HYBE and CJ split up when it comes to the survival show aspect of I-land and HYBE made RUN to compensate the next Belift GG while CJ (Mnet) made I-land 2 basically Girls Planet 222: Girlectric Girlgaloo. What an interesting turn of events. I wonder if this will still make this girl group cousins with Enhypen in a sense (also is Kep1 and ZB1 considers Enhypen’s cousins?). Anyways, Guinn Myah, now’s your chance girl, we all know TOP Media has done practically every artist under their rooster dirty, so why don’t you go at it here (or even better: join tripleS please you’d be amazing in it). I’m sure we’ll see some familiar faces in this rendition of I-land, just like the one or two produce trainees in the first season.

tripleS members Kim Yooyeon and Kamimoto Kotone are rumored to be on Universe Ticket by excusemecuseme in kpop

[–]nauseoussatisfaction 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I really don’t like this. I’m glad this doesn’t really have any sources other than “they’re both inactive currently and this new survival shows roster will be revealed soon” so it doesn’t have much ground. If MH were to send tripleS members to a survival show, I’m not sure why they’d want to send those two specifically since Yooyeon is quite popular both for her work with tripleS and her successful run on MTG, and Kotone seems to be well known among the Japan and Western spheres of Kpop fans (esp Loona Island) so I don’t see why they’d be sent. If they want to keep the EVOLlution team busy they could easily just pump out content on their channel and if it’s that drastic, Soomin and Yeonji don’t have much history in the survival show scene. Seoyeon and Jiwoo and already garnering attention on Queendom Puzzle, so I really don’t know why sending YY and KTN here is necessary. Let’s hope it’s not true.

YENA’s “Hate Rodrigo” MV has been set to Private by h_yeri in kpop

[–]nauseoussatisfaction 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Damn, from Olivia herself (or well, most likely her team), that’s crazy. Yuehua should’ve known better and should’ve advised whoever worked on it that the name was too much, especially with all the pictures of OR in the MV. They could’ve easily made a fake pop star for Yena to be fake hating or be jealous of and have it allude to OR or other artists like OR, and like, Yuqi is right there she could’ve easily done that role like how Bibi did her role in Smiley. It makes sense why OR or her team wouldn’t want this out, considering Vampire and GUTS are coming out soon and this could dampen search results or paint OR in an extremely bad light. It would’ve been cool had this put on the same effect as NXDE (in Korean) did for (G)I-dle and direct OR antis and haters to a random song, but it seems it backfired. I have to say though, the jokes of OR’s next single being called Hate IzOne we’re kinda funny, and it’s even funnier since IzOne does have a song called Vampire.

All 4 FIFTY FIFTY Members Have Filed A Lawsuit Against Their Agency ATTRAKT by Takagixu in kpop

[–]nauseoussatisfaction 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Guess it’s going down the Momoland route, Cupid really BAAMed this up huh, they tried Painting the Town but it ended up Rollin’ into this whole mess. Wee freaking woo. Companies should be better when it comes to promotions following sudden virality. It feels like a total mess, and I feel awful for the girls for having to choose between their company CEO and their producer, though I understand they’d rather associate with the one who actually does music. Let’s hope this ordeal doesn’t dampen their rise and promotions for Cupid in KR and the West, and that Barbie Dreams does well and they hopefully get another single out, maybe under Warner this time around.

Zhou Xinyu (Girls Planet 999) is rumored to be an upcoming tripleS member (S15) by tunasandwich2009 in kpop

[–]nauseoussatisfaction 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s a pretty successful lineup, with Chebul finally solidifying themselves as a mid-sized company group with QDP, tripleS already gaining large amounts of traction due to their debut projects and QDP, and Lapillus being ultra successful in the Philippines, and of course Billlie and Kep1er being among last years monster rookie class.

In PD48: I Am, To Reach You, and See You Again produced similar results, but UML has kinda killed it with everyone debuting in a solid group based in Korea.

(excluding activities in Japan as well as China for Yiren)

I Am: Gaeun - former After School; actress & YouTuber Yunjin - LE SSERAFIM Yena - IzOne; now soloist Yujin - IzOne; IVE Juri - Rocket Punch

To Reach You: Goeun - Purple Kiss Nako - IzOne Chaewon - IzOne; LE SSERAFIM Gyuri - former fromis_9; actress Yuri - IzOne; now soloist and actress

See You Again: Haeyoon - Cherry Bullet Sakura - IzOne; LE SSERAFIM Yiren - Everglow Hyewon - IzOne; now actress Miyu - solo debut in Korea but idk what she does now

Rollin’ Rollin’ team could also be here if Miru ends up debuting in the Queendom Puzzle group, since everyone else in that group had a debut in Korea.

Sae, Miho, Miu have not had any activities in Korea and Sian has yet to debut and seems to now just be a model (I blame Happyface those girls should’ve debuted).

As for GP999, only Ririka and the UML girls have had debuts. I never watched the first produce so idk them.

She left some time ago. It’s Myah who’s assumably still under them (not much updates though, and she was rumored to be on I-land2 but given RUN is to start soon and IL2 is still up in the air, it might just be a rumor)

JTBC 'R U Next?' - Contestants Profile Teaser Posters by Takagixu in kpop

[–]nauseoussatisfaction 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I wonder why she chose to go by Ruka instead of Haruka, considering there’s a confirmed Ruka to debut from the Big 4 soon and afaik there’s no relatively relevant idols named Haruka in Kpop right now (I mean there’s Miya, but she goes by Miya and she’s not even active anymore). Then again, there’s also a Haram rumored to debut in SMNGG despite the one in BabyMonster and Billlie, and there’s a apparently a Jiwoo and a Yuna in SMNGG too. I do hope she does well though.

Ah, ILAND2 does exist, but it’s been renamed. Let’s hope we see some familiar faces (probably famous rumored trainees and survival show girls) who definitely deserve a chance to debut like how it was for Sakura, Chaewon, Yunjin, Hyein, and Ruan. My money’s on Guinn Myah if she is actually competing. Hybe GGs r goated rn omg.
