Display MoreIt's pretty simple; To make the most money possible.
And yet, it feels like JYP uses Twice as a nest egg when the company needs money rather than actually grow Twice as a brand.
HOWEVER, the irony in all this is that JYP would make more money focusing on trying to make Twice one of biggest K Pop group on the planet, it's still not too late.
JYP is going to make their money regardless. Why not take a few risks?
So I wanted to reply to this in a separate thread, because I have a theory. And it is not just about Twice, we've seen it many many times before. There is also another thread in the main addressing the fact that Hybe requested new collector edition of BTS to not count towards charts.
I think it is pretty safe to say that company's are purposely taking or devaluing their groups over the time, in an attempt to push their newer groups. If you're running a company, what is the worst think you can do? Rely on one product. It is an instant turn off for any investors, because investors prefer as much diversified portfolio as possible.
So if JYP or Hybe come out in the investor meeting and say, well our 7-9 years old groups are still our biggest assets, stocks will dive right after such meeting. These companies don't care their about their individual group's success, what they care about is the company success. So it is essential for them, that at least on the paper to show that their newer groups are doing as well or better. So for JYP it is essential that Stray Kids and Nmixx are the best performers in the company. It is a better look. Same with Hybe.
I personally call this SuJu effect. Super Junior was the first group who in my eyes went from one of the most anticipated groups with their masculine concepts, to a literal comedy groups since Mamacita. As soon as they got EXO, SuJu was turned into a big joke.
Twice had a chance to leave but didn't. It either means they are fine with the way things are or it means changes. Time will time which one it is.
