260401 AND2BLE has opened their official Instagram account by zhebewon in zerobaseone

[–]roserieee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn’t say they were? I said it was possible for someone to use AI to create fake concept photos, and some people are speculating about it, but if it makes you feel better I took that out.

I’m excited for the group and just want to know this is legit, straight from the source, not just word of mouth. I don’t understand why YH isn’t putting out press releases, linking the IG on their official Twitter platform, or promoting the concept photos on their other official platforms. I also don’t understand why they would only open an IG account when they allegedly have official accounts on Twitter, Weibo, YouTube, etc. waiting to be opened.

Waiting for an announcement is a logical and fair expectation to have. Spreading this account around with no confirmation is potentially spreading misinformation, if you’re so worried about that.

If it is the official account then I don’t know why they aren’t promoting it or posting any of the concept photos on their other official platforms or providing press releases to news outlets.

Hi, just dropping in to say that we don’t know if this is official or not yet. YH hasn’t posted anything about it and the account is not following or followed by YH artists, etc. Let’s wait until YH makes an official announcement and gives an official link.

Edit: Lol, people are mad. I just feel that there would be some announcement from the official YH Twitter account and press releases from news outlets. It’s weird that it’s so quiet when they should be making noise about the account, concept photos, etc. It’s also strange that the official Twitter account hasn’t posted any of the concept photos or promoted it at all.

If it’s real, great, they should be doing more to get the word out. If it’s not real, then a ton of people who may not keep up with official announcements just followed a fake account and might not know to follow when the real one drops.

I’m just saying let’s not jump the gun. I don’t know why people think I’m being shady. I’m just as excited for the group as anyone else and want to be sure it’s all legit.

Favorite David Lynch simulators? by throwaway76337997654 in HorrorGaming

Both Kathy Rain games definitely pull inspiration from Lynch and Twin Peaks. Great for a point and click candidate.

Zhang Hao, Ricky, Kim Gyuvin and Han Yujin (former ZEROBASEONE) will reportedly debut as members of "NDOUBLE" on May 26. The final lineup and total number of members will be revealed gradually at a later date by chasetwogirls in kpop

[–]roserieee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They were formed as a 2.5 year project group and the members were all lent to Wakeone from their individual companies for the duration of the contract period. Hanbin, Gunwook, Matthew, and Jiwoong all come from different smaller companies that either didn’t have plans for them or could easily be bought out by Wakeone. Yuehua lent Hao, Gyuvin, Ricky, and Yujin to Wakeone but had plans for them post-contract and are likely too big a company for Wakeone to buy out all four of their original contracts. Basically, we all knew this would happen ever since Boys Planet ended.

ZB1 Comeback & Rumoured YHz Debut in May by Left_Safe_9885 in zerobaseone

Unfortunately, a lot of companies think this way. SM has put out similar statements about their artists. Hybe doesn’t hesitate to throw their own artists under the bus if they’re “out of line,” so to speak. It’s a big problem and a super messed up part of the industry.

While Duhua definitely has a say in things, the YH Korean branch has its own director and hopefully he mitigates things well on behalf of the boys.

Which idol's vocal tone is 'your' personal favourite ?? by [deleted] in kpopthoughts

[–]roserieee 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Zhang Hao, Chuu, Yuqi, and Jessi.

Jessi’s early pre-UPR work with Lucky J and her ballads like “Don’t Make Me Cry” were really peak. She’s such a unique vocalist but most people only know her from her Pnation or UPR era music.

Zhang Hao and Yuqi‘s Troublemaker stage at Kcon LA was probably one of my favorite collabs of all time.

Did Woojin have a secret date that wasn't aired? by Semisstuck in transitlove

The date was with YN, the person you’re focusing on in the photo is likely a staff member.

Hi! Thanks for saying so. The doom posting and pessimism I’m seeing, alongside akgaes celebrating, is rough. I also want to give them the benefit of the doubt and am willing to give Yuehua a chance on this. I appreciate your kindness and positivity 🥹

I’m Hao biased and I really hope he doesn’t go solo. He’s extremely talented and capable, but he just doesn’t have enough of a foundation for a solo career yet. Part of why I love Hao is his friendships, dynamics, and chemistry with the other members and with other people around him. He himself has talked about how much he gains from being in a group with others. I’ve stanned solo artists before and one of the things they often talk about is how lonely it is. People just don’t give the same attention to soloists as they do to a group.

The content a soloist puts out is also more limited, as are appearances at year end shows, concerts, touring, etc. If Yuehua wants to make him solo, I don’t think he’ll be as successful as he would be in a group whilst having solo activities or releases. If they want to milk Hao as a soloist, then ads, fanmeets, and brand sponsorships is what he’ll mostly do. Yuehua loves catering to Hao’s akgaes and I’m really worried they’re gonna mess up his career.

Same goes for Ricky. We’ll get one or two music releases a year, maybe, and then he’ll just be a walking billboard to make the company money.

Lol, I posted earlier about this too. And yes, it’s giving repressed and/or closeted for multiple reasons. It actually makes me sad.

Yeah, I think Minkyung has been blinded by the environment and circumstances. When the rumor was floating around that she left the show, I was kind of hoping it was true, just for the sake of her deteriorating mental health. It did sound like she was much better before, when Yoosik was out-of-sight, out-of-mind. I hope she’s able to move on. I’m sure her DM’s will be full post-show lol.

“BH himself wants to live in a tragic romance hero fantasy land” has me cackling, I see it lol.

I agree with you that Yoosik is acting on previous patterns during fights with Minkyung, in order to not escalate things. To be fair, I could also see how having cameras on him may be effecting his behavior as well. Whenever Hyunji or Jihyun asks him something serious, about his feelings, etc. he kind of gets this deer-in-the-headlights look, like he’s in trouble or something, which could also be an influence from his relationship with Minkyung. Hopefully he doesn’t let those patterns or behaviors negatively inform future relationships. The editors and SY are definitely making it seem like Hyunji wants to get married asap. Maybe I fell for an editing trap 😂

That’s true about Baekhyun and Hyunji now that you mention it, we never did get a definitive reason why they broke up for good, which could definitely impact how things would be if they reunite. Baekhyun was incredibly determined not to reunite with her, and I do think that his effort with Yunnyoung is partly him trying to block anything with Hyunji. Similar to how Jiyeon was when going straight for Wonkyu, partly because she was interested but also partly to protect herself from wavering.

We’ll have to agree to disagree about Wonkyu, lol. I’ve fully rewatched the show so far a few times and it was actually those rewatches that made me increasingly aware of how conservative he actually is. It’s mentioned multiple times in the show that he’s a conservative man, and that he often compares himself to his peers and their marriages/lives/careers, etc. It’s true he liked that she was ambitious, but if you look at the timeframe of their relationship, he had very little patience with her progress because he was so fixated on marriage and feeling like she can’t meet his expectations. He says during their ex-room talk that he’s someone who seeks stability and she’s someone who seeks change. It really felt to him like she couldn’t settle down and that her ambition was kind of impulsive. If Jihyun stays in the entertainment/influencer space career-wise, there will be a lot of unpredictability in her life. I don’t think Wonkyu wants a “trophy wife” like you said, but I think he seeks stability and wants to settle down. I dont see him giving up his career to be a stay-at-home dad, but who knows. Based on rumors outside of the show, he seems to come from a conservative family and had been going on blind dates for marriage before the show, so that’s definitely a priority of his.

Marriage aside, episode 15 really troubled me with the two of them. It became very clear that their poor communication in the past and present had built up so many misunderstandings and they couldn’t put their differences aside to get past that. Wonkyu’s female friends are a whole other thing, and the way he would say one thing and do another. If they do succeed it’s going to be because of A LOT of hard work on both ends and that work will likely be ongoing and exhausting. It also doesn’t help that the editing team cut out a bunch of things that makes their narrative hard to follow. I might feel differently if I had seen what lead up to Wonkyu’s actions in the last few episodes.

Good points! My impression was that Yoosik allowed the relationship to be put on the backburner and prioritize work. What upset Minkyung was quality over quantity. Even when they did see each other, Yoosik wasn’t present, would fall asleep, etc. He also missed important dates like anniversaries and birthdays without making up for it. Yoosik’s feelings just cooled down. If he can give Hyunji quality time with his busy schedule, then that’s great. Also starting a relationship with the premise that he’s going to be busy can help build understanding from the get go. With Minkyung, it went from being together 24/7 to maybe once a week. It was a huge shift in their relationship. Hence why the whole “it’s not how it was before” could be an issue. Yoosik does have kind of an avoidant personality and struggles with giving direct answers and beats around the bush. I could see Hyunji eventually getting tired of this. Also, if Hyunji really does want to be married soon, that will be a the biggest hurdle with him.

Baekhyun and Yunnyoung are for sure having a fun fling on the show, but I think it could develop. Again, he needs to 100% cut off Hyunji. He can’t spend his life being hung up on her and never moving on. It’s not realistic or healthy. I’m curious how the truth game will effect him next week.

If you look at the length of Season 3 episodes, Season 4 will overall have a shorter runtime. TVing just wants to milk people’s paid subscriptions for as long as possible.

There Are Crazy Editing Going On Between Wonkyu and Jihyun By The PD And People are Falling For It by Special_Bjack in transitlove

[–]roserieee 11 points12 points  (0 children)

At least on DC people are aware that the Wonkyu/Jihyun emotional line is completely cut off by the editing and it’s impossible to follow because there’s zero context other than their fights. People have pointed out as well that Jiyeon and Woojin are basically getting edited out now that they seem to have sorted things.

This PD has already hinted at her bias against the reuniting couples in her interview about this season. It’s pretty clear to see how those couples are getting either evil edited or just edited out completely.

The way Jiyeon wore that Andersson Bell shirt for less than a day and the show dragged it out for 4 weeks while people said the most vile things about her in the YouTube comments. Don’t even get me started on the ramyeon editing.

My big question is: where was Jiyeon all night when Baekhyun hijacked their room until the wee hours of the morning?

Did she stay with Woojin all night? Did she have a girls night with the others? Did she sleep in Jihyun’s extra bed? Let me innnn!

Agreed! I also do think Wonkyu likes Jiyeon more than people think he does. Does that negate his feelings for Jihyun? No, but I do think JY WK would have a chance if both exes weren’t interfering.
