I remember how big their international fandom was after WIN, I'd never expect them to end up with no popularity. I was sure they could surpass BB but first B.I drama happened, Junhoe supported Takeshi Kitano, Bobby packed his bags (he sure knows kfans will not let him promote with the group if he has a kid) and international fans criticised them for the Chanwoo situation, lifting dresses when they were dressed up as girls and now this. Looks like it's over for them.

GIDLE's Soyeon, Kim Tae Ri, Gong Yoo, Brave Girls Minyoung, Adora, Lee Jung Jae, Eugene, Park Hae Soo, VIVIZ, Lyn, Sng Ji Hyo, Bibi, Park Hee Soon, Ahn Bo Hyun, DJ Doc, Primary, Jacki Wai, Lee Yoo Mi, Heo Sung Tae, Khundi Panda added.

When the articles about the FINAL line up came out, many people were sure that it was some kind of mistranslation and that there would be another line up with top acts. Turns out, we've been wrong because this is the final line up: ARMYs were sure BTS were going to attend MAMAs this year but then the Omikron happened and Big Hit said the boys would have to be quarantined after coming back from the US. Another article mentioned that BTS weren't planning on attending the awards in the first place (what was later confirmed with the announcement of their official break). We know why BTS aren't attending but other popular groups such as Seventeen, TWICE, Shinee, Red Velvet, Mamamoo (or Hwasa as a soloist) and Blackpink (or Lisa/Rose who were nominated) aren't attending either. What do you think is the reason? Why would they do something like this to themselves? Didn't they say they wanted to take next year's MAMAs to the US? It might be impossible after this year's ratings/views Correct me if I'm wrong but it seems that the only groups general public knows here are Aespa, Brave Girls and Itzy.

Oh, I didn't know that. I guess Armys on IG and Twitter have a different approach

Not really. Armys didn't believe in this rumor and think Taekookers who dislike Jimin made this up.

News revealed that while JK, Jimin and Jin will spend their quarantine in SK, the other 4 will stay in the US for some time.

Added!

Congratulations!

I thought she left because of the recent controversy?

I watched some old f(x) performances after watching their MV and wondered "what happened to SM". I don't know if they're told to look so uninterested, is it their "concept" but when they look like this it's hard to believe in their "I'm a savage" words lmao. The song would be better without rap parts.

Agreed. I don't like the autotune either. I hope it sounds like MOTS: 7 or LY: Tear.

Diplomatic passports are issued to officials or employees of the South Korea's Government (and their dependents) traveling abroad on official duties. President Moon gifted each member with a diplomatic passport and a fountain pen to congratulate their efforts for enhancing the nation’s global stature. BTS will accompany South Korean president Moon Jae-in to the 76th UN General Assembly. The septet will attend the "SDG (Sustainable Development Goals) Moment" on Sept. 20, where they will deliver a speech and showcase stages through online. https://twitter.com/choi_bts2/status/1437624274508943362 https://twitter.com/Kpop_Herald/status/1437613439094968320 The passport allows you:

Meanwhile HYBE are debuting 6 groups in 2 years I wonder how Lily M, JYPE's Chinese boygroup and Bernard Park are doing. From what I remember DAY6 and TWICE's contracts are ending next year so JYPE need at least one new group to keep the cash flowing. You never know what's going to happen.

I don't know who was to blame for Gfriend's disbandment - Source or HYBE but do people really think they had value at this point of their careers? Their last few songs didn't do well digitally and their physicals were on decline too. If they renewed for 2 years, I'm sure they would disband 2 years later.

I don't know if it's noise marketing but this group's company is setting them up

They'll probably become a top group because the standards are different now. Idols just have to look good to make it - charisma on stage is not needed, live singing is not needed, catchy song is not needed.

I'm far from being a Hybe company stan but why does everyone say that Hybe is to blame for GFriend;s disbandment? I mean where are the receipts for that? Didn't the girls have contracts with Source Music?

The members look like they were forced to perform and wanted to leave the stage asap. Honesty I think I've never seen a group from BIG3 with so little excitement to perform. Lip synching makes everything worse.

Added. I also added: MONSTA X’s Joohoney 2PM's Chansung Kang Min Ah IZONE members: Lee Chae Yeon, Kwon Eun Bi, Jang Won Young, Choi Ye Na, Kang Hye Won.

I wish I had body like hers, she's beautiful and matches the brand.

I didn't know they were brothers

Is he the one with a guitar? If yes, I like his song. I don't think he's doing well on charts though. His MV views are low too.

Wannabe remains their best title track. Sometimes I dislike the title track but the rest of the album is good but not in this case. I couldn't finish most of the songs and that says something. JYPE don't know what they're doing with Itzy.

I really hope it's not over for them because they're one of my favorite girlgroups and Psycho was very popular. When are their contracts ending?

We got TXT, Enhypen, the new Japanese group with I-LAND contestants so this group would be the one meant for American market.. or it's a different one?
