Why we don't have any news about After School future ?

Afterschool's graduation concept is essentially like how Jewelry was run - just another way of saying add and withdraw members.  With the natural member attrition it's down to Orange Caramel + 3 (Uee, Kaeun, E-Young.)

 

Uee makes plenty in her acting roles and Nana is transitioning into the second phase of her career.  And so Afterschool is more or less on indefinite hiatus until Pledis runs a new round of auditions;  cos the member pool from which they were going to draw, to prop up Afterschool, all went into Pristin.

 

Taking into account the time needed to recruit and mentor new trainees, by the time they are done, whether Pledis sees any value in keeping the name Afterschool (along with the recognition and the baggage that comes with it), or rebooting it with new and old members like Minx into Dreamcatcher, that's up to them. 

 

But part of the concept of graduation was that an entire lineup change was inevitable - so it would be completely different members in 20 years time as new members phase in and old members phase out - and still call it Afterschool, even if it wasn't the Afterschool of 20XX.  With that in mind, Pledis may sit on it without ever officially disbanding it as the concept itself negates the need to.

I want them to make a comeback so bad, but I doubt that will ever happen :'(
