So Bighit is letting Leo (Trainee A) leave... thoughts?

Good riddance

GOOD

The fact that he was considered their main vocal is awful. He can sing but he is still mid and would not be even a lead vocal in other groups.

Hybe for some reason has allergy for good vocals, why can't they debut them the way sm does and puts good vocalists in every group. They have no problem debuting mid or below average visuals(basically back up dancers) and anyone who can dance well can debut there, so it won't be an issue to street cast anyone who can sing well. The group can dance well, but that's it and that's not enough.

Also if they want to be relevant in Korea, they need a Korean visual like Taehyung. Hybe are lucky they have Tae and Jungkook(one of the main reasons why bts is popular is bc of the maknae line), but it won't be the same for this group. The first thing knetz questioned is how there are more foreigners than Koreans and how the only handsome member is Thai. We all know how visuals are essential in kpop and how Koreans (like anyone from SEA or Japan will root for their own first) will support native Koreans first.

Look at what Sullyoon did even if her group flopped.

Knetz still question as to why are there no Cha Eunwoo from 4th gen yet. They still have a chance but I don't have any hope for them

not you completely ignoring jin. taehyung is not a typical korean visual, that's jin which is the reason he's the official visual. he is also proof that official visuals may not be the most popular member. yes, visuals are important but x factor is more important and tae has it.

a bigger problem than visuals is that there are barely any korean members, that's what gets koreans pissed off

Is this group ever coming out? Feel like I’ve been hearing about this group forever. Like the imaginary YG gg or SM new bg.

Ngl it's a pity. He is so good looking. I hate Hybe but Trainee A look like will be the most visual bg tied with WayV.
