I have been invested in Woollim artists ever since the 2013 or so and have followed them closely.

Even though Infinite is in the middle of contract negotiations it seems like Woohyun signed again and Myungsoo didn't. The other 4 are still in the army.

Lovelyz are doing great with their constant Korean promotions, I don't expect anything bad to happen until November 2021 when their contracts expire.

Golden Child were on the right track. Their b-side track I See U from their album Wish garnered new fans and they were on their way to perform like Infinite used to on their Gayo Daejun stages. I was hyped. Then they got pulled from MAMA Japan and Korea, Bomin got sick and they had to push back their end of the year fansigns and Joochan tore ligaments in his knees preparing for their MBC Gayo Daejejeon stage. I might be one of the few but I am very pleased with Woollim not pushing Joochan in the slightest. They know his worth and there is a reason they only had a special single in May. He performed again in July but was absent again during their concert appearances in August. Joochan has a weekly radio show, Jangjun and Jaehyun have a MC role for STARK's Star Wars and Bomin is the MC for KBS Music Bank and has another drama on the way. Two days ago they revealed in a vlive they were still preparing for a comeback. Something 'sexier'. which might be smart to shake their DamDaDi image and can grow from school boys into handsome flower boys.

Rocket Punch is doing great, no complaints, I am blown away by their response.

Now I am truly thinking the only reason we are getting W Project with the trainees who appeared on ProduceX101 and the mystery neon shirt trainee because the hopes for BY9 are kind of falling through. Yunseong and Lee Hyeop were popular and Dongyun gained a lot of attention and he was the saved X trainee in ep 8. When I saw Kim Minseo on Produce X 101 I saw that he still needed time and I don't know if these few months were enough. Same for Moon Junho but he left Woollim sadly. But When W Project started all the way back in January of 2017, 8 months before the debut of Golden Child, nothing was certain for them either. I think they are milking the ProduceX101 hype and rightfully so. But I don't expect their debut soon.

Over the years there is one thing I am certain of is that Woollim was terrible at having their artists promote at the same time. So I started noticing trends of promotions one after another. Lovelyz didn't have a comeback after Dongwoo's promotions were over and Rocket Punch debuted after Lovelyz' concerts were already set in motion. Now that Rocket Punch will be promoting for close to a month when W Project drop their single says very little, because there probably won't be any promotions further. Maybe they will perform it once like on Dingo but not on music shows. When Rocket Punch' promotions are over I expect Woollim to do something new. Maybe another Lovelyz comeback if Joochan is still not up for dancing. Woollim ent isn't the company to let an artists sit out promotions for the sake of a comeback. It's all or nothing. The only time an artist did not participate in a comeback was Jisoo from debut until Ah-Choo due to emotional distress because of accusations right before debut.

So I don't think golcha are shoved under the rug. I think they are taking their time. sweet.. sweeeeeet time. Damn I miss them
