LABOUM mentions they were about to disband

    LABOUM shared that they were about to disband before 'Journey To Atlantis' had a chart reversal


    They noted themselves as an 'unknown girl group that didn't receive much attention' and went into crisis before disbandment. They described the chart reversal like being given a gift. Soyeon said, "We really didn't even think about renewing our contract. Then, the grateful miracle of chart reversal happened. We said let's each live well on our own, but then we unexpectedly got another chance, so we decided to try again for the last time."

    Soyeon also talked about how they looked for LABOUM on charts previously but couldn't find themselves but now found themselves at the top and couldn't believe it's real.

    Solbin said that being in the top 100 was on her bucket list and she's speechless and overwhelmed it happened. Jinyea was thinking about acting, Soyeon was still looking for an opportunity to continue singing, & Haein was thinking about leaving the entertainment industry and finding a different challenge in a different field before the chart reversal happened.

    The most memorable phrase that they've heard is, "Thank you for holding out for seven years."

    Solbin said "LABOUM are my friends, family, and my youth."

    So how is KISS KISS doing rn?

    It isn't doing the best really. #216 on MelOn's daily chart. Honestly I think they waited too long . Should have made use of the attention early as Brave Girls did.

    so what this means is that after this comeback they'll disband?

    I mean going off BG who got viral status but Laboum never reached such heights...

    the song was definitely a hit in Korea, it made the top 10 after they had never even made the top 150 before and charted well for a long time. Pretty much everyone at least knows who they are now in Korea. But it never crossed over with ifans. Still it was a huge, unprecedented success compared to what they had achieved previously. Their biggest issue as someone said above is they waited way too long to capitalize on that moment of success.

    Yes, the company was kinda dumb. Took a long time to Laboum even perform Journey to Atlantis, I was annoyed by this.

    Yes they were invited to a few interviews, also did CFs one of which was for the Korean ministry of environment. They were also invited to a few concerts and got high views on all the performances, and one thing which interests me is that almost all the comments are in Korean which I barely see happen even with groups like LOVELYZ whose most fandom was in Korea. All of this was a big deal for LABOUM because at that point they were completely inactive for a year, and only posted selfies on their IG accounts. Brave Girls managed to capture the right moment by going back to music shows/variety shows to promote but NH media had completely given up on LABOUM so JTA didn't become as big as Rollin and sadly. Even now they only managed to comeback because they signed with a new agency. Sadly it took too long before they contracts were over and they were released out the dungeon and kiss kiss isn't doing well now.

    Solbin has gotten a lot of variety exposure since the song took off again and Soyeon has been making the rounds too recently. They're not on Brave Girls' level but Brave Girls have the biggest hit of the entire year. Laboum have just one of the many hits this year. However even that is a huge improvement compared to where they were before, when they were never even close to having a hit.
