OMG YES!!! Hanbin I-LAND, Founder of CAC Dance. I am so happy there is a Vietnamese trainee and at a BIG company!!! He has been quite popular and is main dancer material despite having trained for 11 months! I dedicate a fan account for him. https://twitter.com/SGO48ENG

I think the thing about SB19 is that they are trained for 3+ years. I admit they are very good (synchronized dancing) and have powerful vocal. Meanwhile, the Vietnamese trainees here are only trained for 1 year or less. They are not there yet in terms of skills or willpower. Most Vietnamese also still think Kpop fans and Kpop related style is copycat and prefer solo singers. You know how us Vietnamese are nationalistic and take pride in our own thing. The need for cultural independence is strong after all those wars and domination. So boyband and girlband take the hit as they have Kpop style. The hottest songs all you no English or foreign languages in the lyrics (Jack K-ICM, Bich Phuong, ..)

So I introduced the SM Entertainment online audition to some of the The Voice Kids finalist 2019 such as Huynh Pham Thanh Tam and Vuong Hong Thuy via Facebook Messenger. The former (15 year old) is very enthusiastic and she has already applied by sending to [email protected]. The latter not so, too young maybe (she's 11). These kids are really good and can be future stars. The other topic is Vpop groups. There are dating/variety shows like "Tinh yeu hoan my" now that boosts the popularity of Uni5. They are pretty funny. And I discover a cutie called Ngo Hai Nam. I am losing interest in Vietnamese groups too like Lip B, D1Verse, Uni5 given how little activity they have although their products are quality stuff. Truth hurts. I think SGO48 and 48 concept is dying and not good (even Japan turns the back on them). I think groups just don't work in Vietnam now, even though I still hope things turn around. Not sure if this is why NCT V is not happening because they think Vietnamese don't like groups. Uhh, maybe if it is a entertainment powerhouse like SM they will know how things work with groups. I pray everyday that I see a Vietnamese Kpop Idol though, especially if it is in the Big3.

I love Bao Anh's Latin music direction. Very refreshing and energetic from the usual Vpop sound.

I watched PDX101 and finale so X1 was meaningful for me. Anyway, CSY can't wait to see you grow.

Promise me by Harlan Coben. It's about a former basketball star turn detective trying to solve the mystery of missing high school girls and rescue them.

My first impression of Yeonjun is a dependable and kind person I like a mysterious and warm guy. He shines the most for me. Bias for now!

OP Queen's Birthday is April 2nd, 1997. It's on her Facebook profile. Not sure about Joanne's, but guessing from her Instagram handle, it's July 25th.

Junghwan...Still not getting over him fanboying Jaehyuk's visual in that ot7 vlive, caressing hyung's leg, and everyone was like no no that is wrong you must not do that so uwu In the vlive, I hope they sit intermixedly without separating ot6 and ot7. That is gonna be awkward.

Agree. His sudden growth seems like a burden making him unable to go all the way with dance

I feel like there will be a time when the robot jokes work in favor of Asahi to create a narrative 'transformation' for him lolll

4 because Haruto, Jihoon, and Jaehyuk

I can see it. Definitely the title track is a fun upbeat song with lots of electronic beats based on Kpop history. I want to see a vocal song between the vocalists like "Last Dance" in the album. And then a hiphop side track with highlighted Rap verses that features Yoonbin and Haruto.

What I love about him also is he controls his expression and gestures really well. It comes natural to him without force. He has that kinda flirty look that directs to you that makes your heart throb.

I disagree. NCT is the artist that sells the most for SM in 2018 with over 660,000 copies so I don't get why NCT is not public friendly, unless our public friendly definition is different. Like the kind you talk about is songs being blasted everywhere, even kids know like 'Love scenerio.' However, they are not mutually exclusive. Album sales = popularity. I think being public friendly is the ultimate goal of YG. It shows in his looking for visual and his many members because the more members, the more the group caters to niched fans and various taste. Yedam is famous yeah, but this group has so many outstanding and famous members visually and charisma wise such as Junkyu and Haruto that will make them known.

Just a minor thing but even though I love the song, reading the English translation of "Going Crazy" makes me laugh so hard because there are literally 13,14,15 year old in this group and the song has "our twisted body and breathing by your side" LOLLLL I agree that unit performances like 17 would be a great idea

Honestly, what would the members truly feel about this OT13? We would never know. Downside is in big groups, some of them would not shine as others.

He looks like NCT Mark a bit

YG and his impulsive nature lol, but I AM SO HAPPY !!!!! finally we can stop this long series drama with OT13 AND WE HAVE TREASURE 7 BUT BETTER

IKR He has the best fall during the "Goosebump" stage. He can do martial arts. He sings decently. Cute. don't worry people will realize.

A concept like "Going Crazy" would be so refreshing. Reminds me of the good old days of 2007-2008

He has such a kind soul. He cries during the elimination round and works well with bandmates. Seems like such a polite and behaved older brother and son too.

LMAO I don't really care for "some" of these imitated YG nation fans's childish opinions. Nothing wrong with this. When Twice and BlackPink has an interaction, each fan page still posted the GIF with joy. Let alone these brotherly groups. Let's not create conflict for Treasure Box trainees turned idols if you are a true YG nation fan.
