Two of the ex AKB members have been played in Korea and have undoubtedly ruined their careers in Japan for a chance to debut in a K-pop group that blew up in their face.
Miyu ended up being in limbo for 2 years and has now left Mystic entertainment. And the sad thing is she trained to be in the girl group, learnt Korean and got a nose job.
Then Juri who was once a popular member in AKB joined Rocket Punch after graduating from AKB. It’s been over a year and Rocket Punch haven’t made a comeback yet and the group is underrated in Korea.
Not only that she lost all her J-pop wotas.
Two girls manipulated into leaving Japan for a better chance in Korea only to be faced with doing the hard labour. Seeing all those offers and experiencing the glam life in Korea must’ve changed their perspective.
Hopefully, Miyu joins Girls Planet 999 if she still wants to debut in a group but overall graduating wasn’t a good thing.
