Rejected Sixteen contestants exacting revenge against JYP.

Why didn’t Jyp debut Somi and Natty in Itzy? Itzy wouldn’t have flopped

Are you seriously suggesting that charting one or two songs higher on freaking melon’s floor can compete with a resume as illustrious as twice’s members who are literally millionaires now and can boast about a string of mega hits they bagged throughout their career? Bruh you need to upgrade your trolling material you’re turning braindead like bbb’s threads

itzy completely flopped only three years into their career. these days the only buzz they seem to be getting is from yunas visuals who was actually a somi replacement in the group. somi on the other hand escapes the dungeon once a blue moon but at least she still makes waves. she’s better off solo, she has that solo star power

lol i'm just pointing out some of life's twists and turns. How unpredictable it is. Twice was ruling the world in 2018 and Somi and Natty were nowhere to be found, if someone had told you that in five years, Somi and Natty would be rocketing up the charts like this, would you have believed them?? lol, you woulda laughed in their face and thought they were crazy with a k.

Nah as someone with a brain i would never scoff at that possibility bc 5 years is a long time in pop music culture, and digital charting is as fickle as the next fad emerging and dying within a blink of an eye. What matters is what you do with your 15 minutes of fame, and whether you succeeded in turning your brief moment of relevance into a sustained career or if you squandered it away. Considering twice managed to escape the one hit wonder route and has accumulated a massive fandom and huge earnings after 8 years, that’s an achievement that can’t be used to compare to the next trendy thing that hasn’t had the chance to prove that it won’t fade into obscurity soon like most of the rest of them. The comparison doesn’t have a lot of leg to stand on in the first place.

to me JYP's issue has always been the individual solo activities of their members (3rd gen onwards I'm not sure of the prior gens since I wasn't around then)

I think that's one the biggest reasons Somi left - she probably wanted to do solo stuff in addition to all the group stuff

we see it with Twice and them having their own IG accounts on year 7 and more solo activities in that one year than the previous 6

same with SKZ as minazuki informed me that SKZ has had their new IG accounts this year (5) and a lot more individual activities

Jihyo sold more than both their careers combined in a week.

I'm sure those numbers will allow both to play stadiums in Australia, Mexico, Japan, Philippines and the USA.

Exactly. Hilarious.

itzys current song is doing pretty well on Melon and they sell hundreds of thousands of albums plus tour well. What are you talking about? I wouldn’t call that a flop.

Quote from SooYoung

And actually most of the ex-jyp trainee seems to do better without jyp

Look at sieun too, she wasn't in sixteen but she was supposed to debut in JYP next gg (probably NMIXX)

She end up leaving for BEP label

And now she debuted with StayC

And looking at how bubble is doing in the chart, will have their second top 10 hit in a row

Most ex JYP trainees probably don’t even work in the business anymore. Just like most ex trainees. You my friend have fallen victim to survivor bias. Natty, Sieun, Somi. That’s three out of probably hundreds of trainees that didn’t make it that JYP has had in its history.

I hope Natty helps Jihyo financially
