do you think kingdom will ever happen?

I think if Kingdom is ever gonna happen, it will be next year. 
As to why Kingdom was postponed/cancelled, it seems that netizens were criticizing the rumored Kingdom casting lineup

One issue Mnet is facing in their 'Kingdom' casting process is the ongoing criticism revolving around rookie boy group TOO, who appeared on 'Road To Kingdom' despite their lack of experience compared to the other competitors.

Similarly, current rumors surrounding the casting lineup of 'Kingdom' state that CJ ENM is prioritizing groups which received funding from their past relationships (a.k.a on past audition shows) or past financial investments. 

According to one entertainment insider, "One day, the discussions around 'Kingdom' just suddenly stopped happening. It seems like they came to the conclusion that it will be difficult within the year."  [x]

But honestly, having the Boyz on with really big groups that were rumoured such as NCT or SVT, its like giving free buffet to your enemy

I think that's why companies are hesitant. If they succeed another group succeed and have their popularity, if they fail, their image will drop and again, another group will gain from it

There is literally no win for very popular groups, unless we are only going to invite 2nd gen 

Idt Pledis/SVT are hesitant because they're afraid to lose.
SVT members have been in shows where they lost to other idols/artists like Masked Singer before. 
Pledis artists and trainees have also been in Produce where some won (Kyulkyung, Nayoung, and Minhyun) while majority lost. 
If there's anything that they should be worried abt it's prolly Mnet's evil editing like what happened to Dongho during Produce S2. 
edit: idek why you got negged for your post tho asdfghhh

oh i didnt said that for svt, believe me, if anything it would be too easy of a win for them lol

Tbh its another thing to fail yourself, but entirely another thing to fail and give free ad to other group who won

When svt lost in masked singer etc, it was a competition between seniors and artists, and fandoms did not matter, with kingdom its entirely different point

For the neg... I guess someone didnt liked me saying free buffet lol

the fandom voting percentage in RTK  is smaller compared to fandom voting in Produce and other survival shows tho. 
Like in Round 3, voting is 70%  fandom 30% participants and only 20 fans from each fandom gets to vote online.  
sidenote: someone in reddit suggested that the Kingdom groups should shoot out of a cannon in Kingdom to top the performances in RTK. 
And I was like psssh Seventeen launched Seungcheol and his car into the atmosphere, easy peasy
