Who do you feel should graduate from After School next?


No One Special

Recommended Posts

Personally I feel like Uee should be the next to graduate.

She has achieved what the purpose of AS was supposed to do, help her gain individual recognition to have her own solo career.

 

Uee really has reached her peak and I think it's time to move on to something else.

I know people say that AS needs her, but at the same time she's in a way blocking some of the other girls from being push forward.

 

After Uee, I think Lizzy should go, than Jungah.

 

Who do you think should graduate next?

If Uee were to go next, it would be because, as mentioned, she does seem to have plateaued... and maybe a new direction is what she needs to ensure a bit more longevity for herself as an entertainer... acting full time...but imo, she still brings AS exposure.

Jungah would be the choice, if age is the factor...but graduating Jungah is a death sentence to her career sadly. They would really need to find her niche and build her celebrity, if the plan was to graduate her and then keep her in contract with Pledis. She's not a lucratively logical graduate imo.

Lizzy is a good choice, based upon her future opportunities. She fades into the background in AS now... and her outside work almost overshadows her involvement in AS... but an Orange Caramel loss...is a loss for Pledis.

 

Prediction: Jungah then Uee then Jooyeon

 

Logical Choice: Lizzy... assuming she remains in Orange Caramel...she's the most lucratively logical graduate, with least negative impact leaving AS

 

Personal choice: E-Young

 

but you really never know...i don't think there's a specific guide here. I don't think it's generational. I think there are many factors that are considered. Logically, you could think up a reason for any member to be next tbh.

Lizzy is a good choice, based upon her future opportunities. She's always got things lined up, outside of AS...and tbh... w/in AS, she has been overshadowed. She goes missing, due to scheduling/injury... and you hardly recognize it. The only issue w/ removing an Orange Caramel member, for Pledis, is, does it end Orange Caramel.

 

Lizzy confirmed during the Lipstick promotions I think it was that even if any of the OC members graduate from AS, they'll still be apart of OC.  :smile:

 

I'd rather no one leaves or gets added for a long time, but I would like some more vocal power.... Goodness knows the group needs it.

ah well that's good then.

i did amend my post (i felt it was too long winded haha) and mentioned that, if Lizzy were to remain in OC...but graduate... she would be the most logical graduate of the bunch.

i agree...  that Pledis should stick with this lineup for awhile... but personally, i think... if they were to get more vocals....they'd have to graduate someone ....

whether or not AS needs vocals is up for debate. The vocalists the have are so tired (Raina/Jugs) ... but i think they've resigned to being an aesthetic group at this point.

Jooyeon needs to leave and pursue a modelling career, owning the runways.  :ahmagah:

Too bad Juyeon doesn't own the runways nor photoshoots, tbh. Girl is super pretty but she's super awkward in these things, though some might think it's one of her charms, but girl would never survive the fashion world. And I say this as not trying to put her down.

 

 

 

Nana, on the other hand, I could see her graduating soon to focus solely on her modelling career. She does seem like she's more interested in modelling/more happier modelling, anyways. But then again, what would happen to After School in Japan when your most popular/recognized member isn't in the group anymore?

 

And I do think Pledis is planning on graduating one of the members soon, mainly one of the visuals. Since Pledis is trying really hard to push Kaeun in the "visual" category by giving her an individual photoshoot and putting her in photoshoots with Uie/Nana/Lizzy (After School's 3 most recognized members). Putting her in a scene with After School's visual line (Uie/Juyeon/Nana) in the Heaven pv. Pledis even gave her an article about her "non-photoshopped" body. Or I could be reading into it too much and they're just giving Kaeun some spotlight....

 

All I know is that Pledis better think up something fast for After School and stop going to Brave Bros. for title songs.

I feel like the most logical choice would be the rest of the 1st gen: Jungah and Jooyeon.

Rather than going for vocal power, I feel like what they need now would be a main rapper.
