  • The unit i REALLY want but will never happen

    I really would die hard stan this unit if it ever happened

    the concept:
    cute i guess.. & upbeat .......basically POP music super POP music
    but not the level of chewing gum..

    Large unit as they will obv overlap with = dream = wayv = nct japan
    but as wayv and dream only really have 1 comeback per year i dont think there will be any issues

    yes i want this unit too have 3 leaders as they are the cutest trio
    also means if ever one or two is missing from a comeback there will always be at least one leader

    idk what's done is done. clearly they'd edit them to look more or less favorable to the audience, but you can't fake talent. all of them had at least some opportunity to show how skilled they were, and they voted for each other anyways. the ones who were meant to debut debuted. sometimes you train for years but you're still not ready. training time doesn't equate to talent, since jake only trained for a few months but beat every other kid who auditioned and ended up debuting. the others time will come. there's no actual reason to be sus, this is just you not being able to accept the results.

    i wanted sunoo not to debut xD

    as i knew who ever didnt debut will most likely be in a pledis or big hit future group

    as it was already announced while show was going on that both have groups in the works...

    so i thought my 2 bias would been better of in pledis as more cute concepts..

    sunoo and taki [[[also geonu]]

    i dont like enhypen sadly so happy my main bias didnt go into this group as i feel like ive somewhat dropped sunoo due to this

    Not at you claiming the show was rigged based on some batches... The more interesting/talented and captivating trainees according to the company (mnet or belift idk) were put in the beginning as a way to interest people, there's nothing more than that. I-land is over already, accept the fact some people couldn't make it and move on

    ... i didnt want any of my favs in the group cause i knew it be under Belift and CJ ent...not bighit

    so wouldn't get treated like a bighit group


    sunoo debuted...

    so yeah pretty wrong i said it sus... not that i think voting is rigged etc


    as taki who was my main bias is already in line up for bighit japan so im happy with that

    just wish sunoo was with him [didn't want either to debut under cj ent & belift rather both to be in bighit japan]


    but we love a group what started with ... Koreans 15 and ... 5 non Koreans ... mixed Korean 3

    ending up debuting with .. Koreans 4 and ... 1 non Koreans ... mixed Korean 2

    and was meant to be a mixed group...


    and the now 3 out of the 5 non Koreans are in bighit japan and the last 1 [hanbin] has done solo stuff for bighit so will most likely will end up in this line up... but yeah will ignore that

    i dont think it was rigged. we saw everything that happened. they probably just put the most promising trainees in the 1st and 2nd batches or it's a coincidence. doesn't mean it's rigged. also there hasn't necessarily been no news. yoonwon aka aron is no longer with belift and is working with his dance group 'the j'. geonu has a twitter account. seon and jaeho have instagram accounts. taeyong is becoming an actor and has an instagram. jaebeom changed his name to echan and he also has an instagram. i think the only absolute silence is from jimin, sungchul, youngbin, and daniel.

    when i said no news i meant from bighit xD

    and all the 1st and 2nd batch are bighit/belift trainees

    and all the 3rd and 4th batch short time peroids so most likely online auditions or from different companies and some been on other survival shows


    i.e taki was a last minute audtion too the company and was only in bighit for couple months...

    [but too this day still has the most views out of anyone on tiktok but didnt make the voting round... aka bad editing people switched on him real fast]


    but the reason im sus is due to if you look deep into it... its not like the 3rd and 4th were not trained...


    Ni-ki debuted: but 4th batch 8months training [apparently] as was back up dancer for shinee in 2016/17


    ones i think are interesting:

    Seon - 4th batch -- trained 4 years 5 months under Yuehue Entertainment-- ranked 79 on produce what isnt great but would of gained some training here also...

    Jaeho 4th batch - 1 year 5 months training - majored in Choreography in Practical Dance Department - Came 6th on World class [survival show {there was a top 4 too win}]

    Youbin 4th batch 4 months training

    Jaebeom - 3rd batch - 6 months - soundcloud artist before iland

    Yoowon 3rd batch -1 year 1 month - dance cover team

  • Sus on iland

    Just saying it super interesting
    how many 1st and 2nd batch trainees debuted
    or have clear plans in the work...

    Daniel being the only 1st batch trainee we have no news on
    ...but also only 15 years old.... so prob will remain a trainee

    Geonu being the only 2nd batch

    There is many but I think Chase Lee deserved a bit higher class rank.

    Yizhou surprised me with his dancing routine, so I was happy that he was ranked nice by mentors, but somehow I've got a feeling that we haven't seen best dancers yet.

    Many good guys I'm really interested about first on stage performances which they will learn soon, and then present them.
    Because everything until now they've prepared pre-show.

    chase lee caught my attention so i wrote him down under my keep a eye on list

    [i have to write names down cause so many people while watching haha]


    im worried for tony cause i feel like he going drop so much as they are pushing ready to debut motive

    what i think is building up to a disappointed mentor

  • Do NCT members actually get paid for their work?

    Quote from Drew_B

    Jk996 and everybody else.


    Has anyone else thought about this angle? Could SM purposely be putting out these extremely large boy groups as a way to keep anyone in these groups from getting rich cause of the wealth having to be spread out so much?


    SM hasn't had a small boy group since 2008. With girl groups it doesn't matter how many members cause they are never gonna make as money as the boys. SNSD being the only exception of course.

    are you ignoring the fact they are units not 1 massive group


    for 2020 alone the korean units made the top 10 for sales

    3rd NCT 127 Neo zone The 2nd album [9 members] 784.3k

    4th NCT Dream Reload [6 members] 604.5k

    5th NCT 127 Final round [9 members] 469.1k


    wayvs sales are unknown

    Quote from bartkun

    I'm so disappointed because I saw the "voting" I mean fan rank at the end of the recent episode and it's already bullshit...


    Tony and Liang Sen for sure deserve their places but Rimiko at 1 and Jojo at 3 this is... mind fvck, how did this happen?


    fanrank.jpg

    I see why rimiko may be 1st cause i fell in love with him cause he so cute

    and they did show him and stitch alot in both episodes tbh


    but jojo was so boring in my opinion but they did hype him up in a weird way


    who is your personal fav atm???

  • Do NCT members actually get paid for their work?

    Quote from Jk996

    Just from selling a lot, you cant earn a lot of money. Especially if group is big.

    yeh but their isnt 23members in each unit haha

    each unit has less than 10 active members when there is groups like seventeen with 13 members


    apart from full group comebacks what arent really a thing we have only had 2 out of 5 years

    plus they sell massively well due to solo stans

    [plus they had a tv show for the full group comeback a online tour stage etc etc]


    they deffo make money
