I’m slightly worried that YG’s upcoming gg “Baby Monster” might not do that well. Let me explain:
Before Bp debuted, YG promoted the girls whether it be in acting, singing, or dancing, BP was promoted predebut:
- Jisoo acted in various CFs and even had a scene in a drama with 2ne1’s Dara.
- Jennie and Rosé were featured on tracks with Big Bang’s G-dragon. Jennie even got to perform on stage with him and starred in one of his music videos.
- Lisa modeled for YG’s Nonagon.
- Jennie and Lisa had “Who’s that girl” Videos that showcased their skills (Jennie Rapping and Lisa dancing)
YG did all this for Blackpink predebut but for this new girl group coming up, there’s nothing. YG hasn’t tried to promote them in any kind of way and they’re supposedly debuting this year?
Obviously this girl group exists because their practice room has been seen in Treasure’s TMAP episodes and there was a video of the girls going into YG. So if the new girl group is ready and set, why isn’t YG showcasing them?
If YG tries to debut this new girl group out of nowhere, I don’t think this tactic is going to work. Koreans and Ifans won’t be interested because they have nothing to look forward to. And if YG gives this new gg a Blackpink-esque song, it won’t fair well for them.
So YG needs to get it together and actually try with this new girl group. Otherwise, this’ll be their first failed girl group.
Thoughts?
