weird, idle and pentagon are still here but not clc?

Post 2018 most of their albums are distributed by Universal Music, it probably started in 2018 after Black Dress since Pentagon's Shine is still there and was released in april 2018.

Pre 2018 was under Kakao M so CLC lost everything beside their last singles like Me, Devil and Helicopter, Pentagon also lost everything pre Shine. Gidle has almost all their music beside I Made, confused how did this album ended being distributed by Kakao M, same as CLC's No so in jan-feb 2019 their albums were distributed by Kakao and went back until april to Unversal? No idea what happened.

edit: just checked for Pentagon and their album from march 2019 Genie:us is also gone so from january to april 2019 Cube's albums were distributed by Kakao and from may they went back to universal since CLC's Me is by universal

Quote from worldlove27

It means any artists under companies who use Kakao M as a distributor can no longer get streams from Spotify.

Basically international fans are now unable to easily stream those artists songs. For example, i am unable to add any IU songs to my playlist on spotify cause of this entire thing

IU's pre 2018 are still available (i can still play it), post 2018 can't be played.

Quote from girlgroupstan21

This is like 80% of KPOP discography lol ???? Literally only JYP,SM,YG and BIGHIT left ?????

+ Stone Music (Mnet), Genie, Sony and Universal

edit: for Kakao M, pre-2018 they were Loen it seams a lot of this albums are still there too

Quote from blingyblinger

I just realized how much Bighit is effected by all this. Do you think they will step up and do something?

I don't think they can do something, at the most they can cancel their distribution but it doesn't change past albums, not sure if they can buy the rights for past albums and not sure if is worthy.

Quote from thundas

Yeah all IU songs except for 2012 songs are removed.

All IU songs pre 2018 are still available, only her post 2018 songs can't be played.

Quote from selfmate

She's a very good talker I can agree with that...I guess we'll see how yujin does compared to minju...I hope they both do really well

My friend how've you been I remember you from the last izone discussion lol

Since you seem to be a lot more knowledgeable than me do you know if there ever has been 2 members of the same group MCing two different music shows ?

RV's Yeri and Irene for Music Bank and Music Core in 2015, I think in 2018 NCT also had Mark and Jeno being MCs in different shows, I think Got7 also had 2 members during similar time in 2018, maybe more but idk

Quote from selfmate

yena is no. 1 no doubt about that in variety

I think minju might be a better Mc or do you disagree?

I agree Yena is the best at variety shows and Minju is already a MC, Yujin is a good talker, she's gonna do a good job, not sure if Minju makes a better MC, based on Izone stuffs, i'll say Yujin is better but we haven't seen her officially MC yet.

The timing is quite weird, Naeun has been doing good for like 2 years by now, why he didn't posted earlier since one of the reason he said is because he hated April members doing good?

Well let's see how it ends

Quote from icyruios

That I'm not sure, like I'm not sure if the medical records or therapy notes actually explicitly stated Mingyu that's the issue.

Either way, i hope Pledis manage to solve it in a favorable way for everybody involved, the accusation is pretty bad overall so i hope it isn't true.

Quote from icyruios

There was this post I think whereby medical reports of the accuser going to therapy were posted.

However, the records I think didn't explicitly saytate that Mingyu was the reason for the accuser going to therapy. It just shows that the accuser went to therapy, but technically there isn't a direct evidence or linkage that linked Mingyu to them.

The "proof" if it's real, only proved that the accuser went to therapy

They mentioned the accuser being a idol like how many idols can be in her school class?

I mean a 2006 liner will be 15 this year, is not like we never saw 15 or even younger idols debuting.

Quote from icyruios

Accuser does not want to meet face to face, but find it ok to just spread accusations without any proof?

It's true though like how can we confirm the facts and accusations if the accusing partying don't even want to meet you to settle shit?

Didn't they had the medical records or i got lost in the scandals? I remember that this case was the only one with some kind of evidences, not just word to word.

Quote from supersoda

3 member groups are extremely unpopular and rare

popularity has nothing to do with the number of members, if they were popular as 4, there are big chances to be popular as 3 too, sub units with 3 members were extremely popular like TTS, Orange Caramel, CBX, also one of biggest ggs in Korea was S.E.S which had 3 members

they can function with 3 members too, usually smaller groups are also more all rounded

Quote from Linquistic

and ifans liked the apology, really wonder what got lost in translation

Noances, tone, some words can't be translated well in English so translators find synonym, some words can have more meanings, is pretty hard to translate from Korean to English, a lot of songs lost their meaning after translations or even give different messages

Quote from Zenning

But if she isn't guilty of bullying, why would Soojin need to write an apology letter?

Also, from what I read, am I correct in noting it's the sister - based on hearsay, bc she wasn't there - making the accusations, not the victim herself?

I mean, not that long ago we had that situation with Taeyong, where a so called 'friend' of the victim kept on shading and accusing Taeyong and demanding Taeyong repent and got punished, while in reality Taeyong had talked and made up with the victim ages ago, keeping a good contact with the victim.

They need to do something to save her career, if cube is hoping that it will go away by itself, is not gonna happen, it getting worst by the day.

Cube messed up at the beginning, they went to fast into deny everything and now they can't suddenly turn 360 and apologize, they put themselves over a wall.

Another stupid thing which make her look more guilty is cube not wanting to bring Soojin to the meeting with the victim, it makes her look guilty.

I do think something did happened, even if is over exaggeration by the alleged victim (which is highly possible) , a really bad broke up between friends, most of the students which come out had some similar points, even this student defending her said she was part of a gang/team not exactly of saints but she distanced after some time.

They should put a Irene since the first day, speak with the alleged victim, apologize, go into hiatus and craw back after some months, the public will eventually move on to the next victim (there are plenty to chose during this time) instead they dragged this for days (still going) with even more people putting his nose into this (being good or bad) which make the scandal much worst.

Another thing cube should had never let her release her own semi apology, a lot of knetz starting doubting her after it, it was wrote under emotional hours.

This could have been resolved long time ago if it wouldn't be dragged for days, if they wouldn't deny the first time, the actress wouldn't even be involved and the scandal wouldn't be so big right now.

I actually think Miyeon was the best between them, half of them don't suit this song, Eunbi always manage to sing extra cute and extra thin in all her collabs, i wonder why, she doesn't sound like this in Izone songs.

Quote from Alex_Murphy

My problem with this is that the apology game is a losing game. You apologize? You only did it because you got caught! You admit to some stuff but denies other stuff? Oh the first was true, so the second has to be true too! You denies everything? You're shameless, just apologize already!

The apology game is never about getting a proper apology, it's always about making an individual submit and bend the knee. It's just downright coercion.

So I don't even know what's the best strat to deal with the k-crowd. Soojin tried to clarify some things and admitted to petty things like smoking and dressing improperly. It backfired and made her fit the bully stereotype in the k-crowd's eyes. So maybe she should just have denied everything, even the petty things that happened to be true. Deny everything and sue everybody's ass until they swallow their words back and express regret. That's just twisted either way.

Looking back, if she's at fault for at least 1/3 things the accused said, she should had apologized and admitted her fault from the first time, the accusations were pretty mild the first, the actress and the other colleagues wouldn't get involved, she wouldn't be called a liar, pull a Irene, apologize to the (alleged for now) victim and the public and stay low for a few months, she'll receive some hate but with her "case" resolved and plenty of other bullying accusations, the public will eventually move on to the next victim, she'll slip back in a few months.

Basically screaming at somebody will soon be called bullying.

Quote from kayn

Chuu and Lia's activities were also canceled by the company

I think it's the best thing to do at the moment

Why Chuu, wasn't revealed that it was fake and the accuser took back his accusation and deleted the post?
