hhhshhdhfghdhfg nooooo now im sad wtf

[craZee]

BTS, TXT, GFriend, Nu'est and Seventeen, amazing.

[coval]

Tf

Guess the rumours were true.

Idk if they will be able to be operate like Source which had little interference.

Pledis has such messy management though, idk if it will work without a complete overhaul of its current inside management.

OH, so the "top boy group" company was Pledis after all. 

[classiq]

That's major. Now 2 of the 3 best selling 2019 groups are under one company

[AriNoona]

Wow, that’s a big move if true!

[basicbitch47]

Wow big hit is now really playing like a big agency. But if yg Managed to build a gigantic brand with lots of artists with the success of one group big hit can as well

[Gene_e]

Interesting. But at practice effects how this will affect the groups? Are GFriend doing better since the merge? Something changed?

[classiq]

Apparently it's not a rumor. The paperwork went through in December, I guess it's now being publicized 

[Bhadie]

AMAZING 

[Kwon Fire]

ew wtf

[Josaline]

[Juiiii]

Still Pledis managed SVT and NUEST like how source managed Gfriend, so nothing changes

[Shinki]

not nu'est not nu'est not nu'est

[shay]

Wow.. ok now im waiting for Yunjin debut

ideally it would be nice if the groups did better

however that's not necessary. just need to continue doing what they're doing...the current senior groups in all of these companies (gfriend,17,nuest) are good cash cows, no matter how big or little they make

this money will be used to invest back into the company, including new groups

also - pledis management isn't the best, but pledis is good at finding good trainees and training them very well

 

edit: "something changed" yes for bighit, and their future. i wonder if they plan to go public soon too(?)

Mehh I hoped that this would mean a better management and resources if it's not the case then I'm not interested. I care about the groups not the companies.
