Looks like this is what will happen for IZ*ONE’s activities after disbandment

Lee Chaeyeon will join WM’s next girl group and debut

Kim Chaewon will join Rocket Punch

Kwon Eunbi is older so maybe she will make a solo debut, otherwise, she will join Rocket Punch

Kim Minjoo and Kang Hyewon will turn into actresses

Jang Wonyoung and Ahn Yujin will debut in Starship’s new girl group + Park Sun

Sakura will debut in Big Hit’s Japanese girl group, a group like JYP’s NiziU

Nako and Hitomi will return to Japan or promote like Sakura

Jo Yuri will make a solo debut or will debut in a group with Stone Music trainees (Lee Sian) and the kids who appeared on Produce 48.

Choi Yena will join Everglow

original post: pann

1. [+212, -9] I don’t think Hyewon will become an actress, she can’t control her facial expressions so she will receive a lot of criticism

2. [+164, -82] All 12 members, be happy

3. [+151, -0] It has been ages since Lee Sian left Stone Music. I know there’s barely any trainees left

4. [+139, -20] It’d be such a shame for Kim Chaewon and Choi Yena to join those groups

5. [+110, -0] I think Yena will actually join Everglow. Everglow and their choreography line have been designed so that one more person can easily join. CR.

Lee Sian isn't in Stone Music anymore, she's in Happyface

-it reported (leaked) by a reliable kmedia outlet (hankyung)

-bh official statement neither confirmed or denied it.

-some people say the information was leaked to target bh. many rumors were spreading on the kside. one being that izone might have extended their contracts but one or more companies pulled out at the last minute.

-bh japan was announced recently, and no one was expecting a boy group so soon for 2021. so it's very likely they will be planning a girl group soon too.

-bh japan made it clear the the new boy group will start in japan and expand to global activities

-for individual activities, 48G are allowed to sign with other companies.

ooh interesting, I've totally skipped this news thinking it was trolling or something like that

thx for the info

[crystalblues]

I would say this is pretty spot on, like we discussed the other day I do not see any of the girls returning to AKB48 sadly although I would love it. I am worried for Yena as some of the toxic parts of the fandom have made it very clear they will threaten her if she joins Everglow (even though there is absolutely no reason for it, she was originally supposed to be an part of the dang group anyways)

What bh japanese gg? Lmao

[juu]

if one of them joins an already existing group it will be messy for sure 

it was also speculated that some members were planning to form a smaller unit, maybe that's where the jobless members will go

Hm, there's nothing about making a japanese gg, tho. How many years sakura would have to wait for that...

[Mrs. Morale]

I don't like the idea that anyone of them joining an already established group.

Probably because they're still in the early phases. I mean, they haven't even debuted their first boy group yet. The fact BH is looking for female trainees is interesting tho.

Plus there wasn't any news about the J-BG till the last minute also. If BH is actually planning a J-GG, it will probably be in 2022.

[Ghosty]

they're pretty on point, but i would say hyewon is probably going towards the route of mcing, modeling, hosting, variety shows, etc. people loved her on my little television and i feel like she would've gotten more opportunities if the scandal never happened. if she wants to dabble into acting, she's going to have to take a lot of lessons, tbh. 

also... bonus points for no hate comments for izone from the knetz, lol. i always avoid topics concerning izone on pann or anything like these since they're so hateful. 

[sergel]

Id be happy if Eunbi and Chaewon both joined Rocket Punch personally.

[Rojen]

I see Eunbi as a soloist following a Chungha type of path...Chaewon is still 20y.o so she wiill probably join RP

[iKnife BurnCat]

I'd like to see Eunbi and Chaewon working together, but not in Rocket Punch

[AstroBaby]

I agree with pretty much everything, except I think Sakura is more likely to work solo than debut in the Japanese group, and while Hyewon would be best suited to a model/mc/influencer route (actress if she takes a lot of lessons). Signs indicate that she'll be stuck in this girl group...although maybe subscription based means it'll just be her and some other streamer type girls? Although idk what would be the point of that-

Waiting for actress Sakura someday

[Sakura IS FEARLESS]

Sakura redebuting in the j market in a new group makes no sense to me.
