They should make videos when the members get kicked out / leave.
Like a video of them walking out of the company building.
Thats iconic. I would've loved to see that snake leaving MBK Entertainment.

they are not stupid for me. I like starting on a clean slate and having a new years resolution really helps me to become the person I always wanted to be.

- copied pasted what i told someone else -
BigHit or more so "Trainee A production team" never said that Trainee A are done lol. That was spread amongst people on Twitter.
They just said "Trainee A social media will end its services".. Again only their " social media". That's what people seem to keep looking past.
BigHit still has their YouTube up, they just privated the videos. But their 1.33 Million subscribers still on the channel.
Only reason why they took down the social accounts is because the line up change.
Leo left, Yorch got cut, and I believe James got cut too.
So new faces will be added with the original 4 (Woochan, JJ, Sangwon, and Jihoon)
BigHit need to debut a new group anyway, since its been 4 years since they have. Also with BTS enlisting and doing their solo things, they need a group other than just TXT under the BigHit name.
And like I had said, the name "Aloners Association" is trademarked and got finalized in November. So definitely a new BigHit boy group is coming this year, and I'm predicting in the first Quarter of 2023.
My original post agrees with you for the first 4 paragraphs. Trainee A is "done" as an organization, but not as a pre-debut group. I don't know how Big Hit will debut a group in the first quarter of 2023 when they have evidently changed the line-up and will have to spend a significant amount of time devoted to catching the newly added lineup up. They could debut in 2023, but if that happens I don't see how it would realistically be in the 1st quarter.
If you're going to copy and paste a respond to someone you should make sure that it makes sense to what someone said initially because your post is critiquing points that I never made.

I doubt Big Hit is debuting any boy group this year after what happened with Trainee A. Something happened behind the scenes and that lineup/concept/music/whatever changed significantly to disband that iteration of the pre-debut group altogether.
Maybe you are referring to Pledis's new bg that is supposed to debut sometime this year? If you are I wouldn't place a lot of money on them blowing up because Pledis is notorious for their awful management of their idol groups (Seventeen and Fromis_9 being the exceptions).

The song's lyrics combined with the music video don't make much sense to me; however, the ending about them forgetting that they were NJs was a bit iconic which I liked. I'd like the music video a bit better if I felt the song was about being driven crazy by a boy you like which I didn't get that vibe from the lyrics. The song is great though.

i think the thing that is surprising is that none of the other big companies have capitalized on the things that ador are currently doing. min heejin was literally a creative in sm and yet we see what they went for with aespa. and even rv could never quite keep the momentum going because sm was dead set on the dual concepts and every other release was a miss.
we can all talk about how its only logical that new jeans blew up, but i think the industry is probably also taken aback that the formula to success was this simple while they still toil away with trying to be "innovative" with groups like nmixx and aespa.
I think the broader issue with the big 3 is group-think. They've been a force to be reckoned with for 15-20 years and think they still have a lot broader control of the market than they possess in reality. Some of the major girl groups of the 4th gen are coming from companies like Starship, Cube, A.dor, etc. because they have the guts to look at the entire market and niche that has yet to be filled by any debuted group. Too many companies look at what the industry is producing musically and decide to go off that which isn't a good idea because just because a concept or sound is trendy now doesn't mean it always will be.
The Big 3 have seem to be trying to always go for bigger and more extravagance recently, but if everyone is doing the same concept girl group wise (girl crush and this 'glitchy' pop sound seem to be so overdone) then how are you standing out and is it in positive way? aespa's concept and music sounds like they are signed to a K-pop label by Mark Zuckerburg and NMixx are going so experimental in sound in their title tracks that it is jarring to listen to at times, in contrast to those examples, IVE and New Jeans are using unique softer sounds in contemporary K-Pop that make them stand out in a sea of "innovative" concepts and harsh sounding music.
Tl;dr - You can't do the same thing everyone else is doing and call the musical style 'innovative' and in order to succeed in business you need to fill an unfulfilled niche which New Jeans is currently doing and why they are succeeding.

NJs is able to ride on a wave of nostalgia for a simpler time in the 90s which is very much their aesthetic and they make good music that is unique in comparison to contemporary K-Pop, and they have the benefit of being backed by a massive corporate entity within K-Pop. It's not surprising they are succeeding in Korea

I don't follow JPop as much as you do, but I love their single Meteor.
