Can Treasure succeed more now with fewer members?

Yedam was talented but he also eats up lots of lines/screentimes. One complaint about Treasure is that they have two many members, but now with only 10 left, more equal screentime, do you see them getting new successes?

I see a lot of people like their comeback Hello and said it feels different from current boygroups.

Maybe? They could pull a gidle but they could also pull an ikon. Just look at ikon now without BI.

I doubt they could pull a gidle. They have way too many members and some of them are fillers.

If they weren't popular previously with all their members what is going to make them more popular by LOSING members?

It doesn't make sense

No, their most talented member left it is more of a loss than a gain tbh.

First they have to establish a clear musical identity. That’s a higher stumbling block than the amount of members.

I feel like they've hit their peak. Decent enough sized fandom to give them an income and keep them ticking over. Even if they got a hit it would probably be like Love Scenario again, people loving the song but not interested in the group.
