I'm wondering if she just choreographed or trained them but to answer your question: money
Well that's just it. I looked up her credentials, and she's already professionally choreographed some huge projects, is the youngest member ever of one of the most elite hip hop dance crews in the world, runs her own dance studio and has a significant following/fans already. She's leaving all this personal branding and independence behind for a grueling idol schedule (at least during promos) where any profits would be split 7 ways and the public won't let her breathe for a second without trying to cancel her for any slight perceived attitude controversy?
I guess anything is possible, but it just seems improbable to me.
This is like signing Luka Doncic and putting him on a College Team.
Exactly. And it would be practically impossible for Luka, with everything we've seen from him, to play down to the level of a college team, and if he somehow found a way to do it, we'd all know he's giving about 1% of his normal effort and skill.
