Should Hybe have just debuted Lsrfm this year and put NewJeans to debut later to avoid criticism?

Lsrfm is doing fine well enough, why did they need to debut 2 groups within two months? If they wait a year or two, NewJeans will be older and they would avoid the controversies about their ages like this.

Criticisms from who? From akp fans?

From some noisy kpop foreign fans?

Sure.

IT was always the intention, competing the two groups to create some kind of 'synergy', a strange concept Mr. Bang believed.

Why? Soumu needed a money maker and MHj's gg was in works for years. Both couldn't wait.
