this is my expectation too.  It sounds like they're not prepping for a comeback at all right now, so I'd guess q3, but maybe end of q2.

when was soumuxbh ngg gonna debut?  that'd make an impact.

 

summer comeback would be nice ~ 

Spoiler

ugh i was hoping we’d hear more during the corporate briefing.  all my guesses were early 2021, well before summer so that none of their hype would be overshadowed by i-land girls (should that follow a similar release schedule to season one, starting in june and ending in september)...they could’ve debuted this month and even had a september comeback before i-land girls even debut...

anyway, maybe they’ll shoot for april or may?

the thing is because there is no corporate briefing from BH this year yet (since it is possible BH will not do as in 2019 they didn't do as per some a*mies) or rather BH has not done their 1H 2021 plan yet. Hence,  we don't have any clue when ngg will debut. Since the last few BH's  financial report, they only mentioned planning in 2021. I think I did see a table last year that ngg will debut around 1H 2021. Thus, I'm not sure the girls will comeback first or ngg will debut first. Plus there are no sign of pre-release photo of the ngg yet(we have another 3 month plus before end of 1H 2021). S

Plus now, it is already obvious HYBE is not for ngg. so depend whether those ngg fanbase admin who are free to monitor & look up for the trademark by BH/Soumu these few months. Though for me for Soumu case,  I ever checked before that Soumu trademarked GFRIEND hangul name after their debut. Since we do not know which company will apply for the ngg trademark so they have to monitor both comp but I don't know the code of the trademark that determine is for a upcoming group name.

So in general, I still think is 1st half of 2021 for the ngg. I'm totally fine for the girls to comeback before or after the ngg debut.

I thought the i-land girls, as far as my memory,  they didn't mention is going to be this yr , it just say "coming soon" doesn't mean it will be 2021? if you talking about the "Girls Planet 999" , I remember the article saying they used Bighit's idea but not from BE:LIFT which last yr the "iland girls" teaser clearly mentioned to go to belift website for more details" So apparently, no one have idea when i-land girls will happen since Mnet now working with another comp (NCSoft , though I know this comp is invested by Bighit's sub comp , Netmarble . But NCSoft also the creator of "Universe" app so why they want to make an app to compete with Weverse when they are related comp?) Anyway for me "Girls Planet 999" is not iland girls just using the idea of i-land. Regarding i-land girls, no news from both Bighit & Belift. So no clue when they going to do this. if I never remember wrongly, last yr financial report, they only mentioned the bhxsoumu ngg & the ngg possibly by pledis.<- this is before I know about the iland girls since that time iland didn't end yet. Also even after it ended, I don't think I saw it in their plan schedule. Have to wait for apr/may for BH's 1Q 2021 report . As I have doubts they will do the corporate briefing for 1H as they busy with their moving

Lastly, not sure the shooting you meant is it about  the girls. if it is, I think I remember their timeframe is one month plus preparation (p.s doesn't include the song recording, just photoshoot -> mv shooting -> actual cb ). Photoshoot is one month before? I think so far lazy.sentimental & their stylist didn't post any hints about photoshoot with the girls. So maybe you can keep a lookout in Apr / May if is a summer comeback. I suggest follow some kbuddies account since kbuddies are faster in catching their staff updates

🤦‍♀️figuring out cbs was already difficult before we had other groups to worry about.  Ah well, I'm going to continue to trust that our girls will be well taken care of, even as a senior group!

i suppose you're right.  i was referring to the WWW untact auditions by be:lift lab that finished late december 2020...it is expected that those selected from that batch + whatever existing trainees are selected would be included in the i-land s2 cast.  if i look at the global auditions held before i-land s1, there was a little more than a year between the notification tweet and the i-land announcement.  however...i do think the scheduling is a bit ??? bc girls planet 999 is still in their audition process as well, no?  so is gp999 airing this year while the www untact trainees wait?

also, if anyone wants to join in potential bhxsoumu ngg discussion, there's a main thread!  here

back on topic...i wonder if we'll end this past trilogy and move onto a new cycle or if this will expand upon that universe...i'm a little behind on theories and whatnot

Haha true, actually I just want to know is the rumor are true of an ex S* trainee. as I saw a lot of them spreading but I still doubt about her joining the bhxsoumu ngg 😞

They were very vocal about this being "the end of the trilogy," but I don't really know what that means!  End of the trilogy like how the school trilogy was complete, but still continued on with the universe, or end as in, we're moving on from this "universe" thing entirely??  They said they had the trilogy entirely mapped out before it began, so I wonder if they already have plans moving forward, or their now taking time to figure out what direction they're going to go in...  They've already done so many concepts, it's hard to imagine what they could do "new," if that makes sense?

Assuming they come back next summer, what sort of summer concept do y'all want from them?

As far as I remember "Hui" trilogy has ended with MAGO & the girls slightly mentioned is they going to show their new choice but I only know the Marchen  storyline doesn't coincide with the album🤷‍♀️. Whether they expand to a universe, is unclear since we dont have the 'A tale of glass bead' in MAGO. 

But for now, kbuddies said the theories about Greek is still there. I think I shared a bit of the kbuddies theories

 but sadly no one translated the theory as I think is better to see whether their JPN twitter will post similar "card" symbol

i hope we get a "brighter" summer concept as compared to FS & SOTS!

i feel like mago's success really shows that fans love gfriend's energetic/fun side just as much as they love gfriend's innocent/passionate side. SouMu definitely seems to be moving away from the SummerFriend image frm their 2015-2018 summer releases (which is great!) and i really liked the idea of a 'refreshing witch' but mago could've delivered on that refreshing witch better than Apple did (apple is my fave song frm the 回 trilogy but timing wise it could've been a perfect Halloween release lol).

visually, something like E*I* LADY or W***** G**** WSL would be interesting to see gfriend try! sonically, I'd love something like tarot cards/My My My as a title track
