japs are TRASH

cool it with your racism

the problem for nwjns is that SK is ridiculously pro-big business and hybe is big business unlike most of the other non-big 4 agencies.

if nwjns could show any reasonable cause for breaking contract they might be able to wiggle out with a low/no penalty but nothing they've presented thus far even vaguely indicates mistreatment. this isn't loona vs bbc.

so given that there doesn't appear to be grounds to break the contract with no penalty it looks like they'll have to focus on somehow breaking the contract and not getting hit with a massive penalty.

right now the penalty they are potentially facing makes someone covering their penalty non-viable. nwjns is unlikely to be able to repay that sum within 3 years so basically they'd have to lock in a big contract extension and even then it might not be worthwhile.

mhj has already indicated she doesn't think kpop groups should be renewed so they are throwing away their peak earning and there is no guarantee mhj wants them long term.

considering mhj could probably debut a nu-newjeans for 20m-30m why would she or someone else pay a 250m penalty? If the contract penalty is 50m i could see EMI maybe giving it a shot but EMI is Geffen and Geffen is sharing Katseye with Hybe so you'd probably be looking at Columbia or one of the other big players. Kakao looks like they are scaling back their music production plans and CJ focuses on distribution so which kpop agency has the money to pay a massive penalty?

they already full steam ahead with kiikii

what are these lips for

seoah's diet is not working

the problem with newjeans are that they're a bunch of retarded cunts who think that legally binding contracts didn't apply to them

It would be hilarious if after all they've done for MHJ, she leaves them in the lurch and debuts a replacement.

What did she mean by this?

hilarious if

yeah.. when it happens

korea was never pro business. It's literally their hatred for big corporations that MHJ could have gone this far with her David vs Goliath trope while being as corrupted as them

They are not doing well on the Korean charts. What do you mean everywhere?

Winter just begging for my red-hot poker.

this but chinese

will divecels jump ship to kiiikiii come december?
or will they follow whatever nugu rebrand the four loser ive members end up doing?

cool it with your racism

counter point: newjeans is newjeans which means they will because they are newjeans

if I pretend illit bullied me I'm sure to win my court case against hybe

stupidbitch.jpg - 2477x1393, 284.53K

since when is getting top 9 in Melon not doing well? are you retarded

cool it with your autism

one of the easiest way to gauge how the korean GP receives kpop songs, is to go around myeongdong and see what most of the stores play. for the past two years when I would go to korea, all the stores often had hybe artists on rotation, specifically BTS & NJ, and outside hybe, it was either TWICE, LSF, or IVE

to lsf fag and divetranny arguing: you're both gay

their song from months ago is #16 right now

kinda crazy how this all started with her making shit up and everyone on the team ran with it

Rebel Shart should've ruined their careers. Happily for them their parent company can pay for their sales and advertising, so they're basically indestructible. We'll be stuck with IVE for five more years.

When was Hot ever number 9?

have them waterbomb each other and call it all even.

56.jpg - 1600x2400, 2M

SSE still depend on IVE and wony solo activities but they have to get something in place in case she decides she wants to pull a Bona and focusing on acting.

KiiiKiii will need 2-3 more solid comebacks to grow into a top level group and SSE definitely need a new BG to replace Crappity. They can't rely on MonstaX to be free money forever.

Considering Kakao wants to sell off some ownership stakes SSE probably also want to make sure all of their divisions look profitable

mhj will not abandon her children

need slug showing off cheeks this comeback

LSF is HYBE

yea they'll all be irrelevant together

laughing at your embarrassing flop posts trying so hard to get (You)s
im going back to Anon Babble to tell all the bros

If Newjeans had a braincell between they would've put MHJ in a home. They had the industry in an armlock.

lemao, she is only going to court for her hybe stonks moneys

newjeans and mhj are family they are home

claims a song flopped in Korea

yet doesn't even know it's peak placement

That's how I know you just outed yourself as a complete moron. How the fuck do you think they kept getting music shows nominations after 2 months?

Is this one of the most fucked up things a kpop idol had done that isn't just some retarded kpg fantasy? She tried to destroy illit's careers.

bow to jiyu.

jiyu(35)4.jpg - 2719x4096, 1.2M

I can fill it

hybe granola

well, illit should apologize

people can't actually like kiikii, there's nothing there

there's nothing there

jiyu.....

there's "people" on kpg who truly believe if they pretend a song is a flop it makes it true. they're the equivalent of the autistic tards on Anon Babble who make threads everyday asking why successful games like stellar blade flopped.

how can hanni cry when she is the actual bully?

What does Yoo Jae Suk think of MHJ's public meltdown? What about the fact she destroyed the careers of 5 little street urchins? What about how she turned a little changeling from the boglands of Vietnam into the most hated person in Korea? I'd be anxious to know.

DID YOU SEE THIS???
x.com/Savy_011/status/1924808675702546700
YES like a bunch of june stuff are you going to buy them all?? lol or which ones u thinking about getting??

i think im going sleep tho soojin friend ok thanks for talking ok
have a good night and day tomorrow too ok!!
see you later

viet girls are evil.

Leeseo's fingers are right there

is she dieting??? i think she looks fine and shes maknae they probably all give her food haha
goodnight

It was never 9.

and mhj tried to destroy hybe
birds of a feather...

goodnight everyone see you all later

Rebel Shart is an indisputable flop.

jiyu angel

250508.mp4 - 720x720, 3.17M

mhj trained her well

Ok bye

night babe
*kisses you on the lips*

their legal system is 100% pro-business. chaebols have massive influence.

you don't think GP opinion actually means that judges will break precedent right especially now that the GP are either bored of the drama or getting irritated with nwjns's entitlement.

this is literally the most likely scenario. she'll get paid out for her shares she's just likely to only get a certain multiplier.

clearly she wants something like 80m but it seems unlikely she'll get that. but if she can get 20m-30m she can start a new ador and debut nu-njz.

this is why nwjns doing this contract shit so pointless because mhj is never going to have the money necessary to allow them to walk away from their contract any pay penalties. they've been trying some crazy hail mary play based upon a perception that hybe's share price would be hit hard while bts in enlisted and no nwjns. But svt, enhypen, lsfm and illit have carried and the hybe share price hasn't taken a massive hit and bts comebacks will happen before nwjns has a prayer of escaping

Don't go.

i can finally say this: mire's mole gives off a sense of eros

I wish idols would bully me

don't post that at sis you creep

GOOD RIDANCE

gn sis

did you see tripleS won

what's the hourly and daily peak then?

When IVE disbands, KPG will celebrate. Or what's left us anyway. We'll kick up a real shindy.

What's their appeal?

Ironic for her of all people to wear that...

Hourly is a scam since plenty of songs hit hourly when they drop. Daily is 10.

odds that ive will extend their contracts?

according to kpg this a "flop"

The TripleS release, despite being mediocre, was better by long odds than the i-dle title.

what are the downsides of marrying a SEA?

illit is better than jewjeans anyway..

How do GEN Z affords to go to all these kcon and kpop concerts kpg, they are all so expensive??

*according to a retarded backpedaling divecel

their parents pay for it

Pretty high. KiiiKiii hasn't proved themselves as a viable replacement. Starship wants at least one self-sufficient group. They can't support them like they do IVE. If Kiiikiii doesn't find a palatable sound soon, chances are Starship will go bankrupt from funding IVE's "success".

being sexo

mhj would love to get nwjns for pennies on the dollar but she's not going to pay some massive markup when she probably doesn't have the money to pay a massive penalty anyway.

nope she wants her ador stonks at some stupidly large mulitiplier (like 20x) which will net her more than enough to be sole owner of a new agency and debut multiple groups. it wouldn't give her the money to get nwjns out of jail.

yes nwjns is the 'sure thing' but if you can debut 10 groups for the cost of paying nwjns penalties anyone even vaguely intelligent will do the debut multiple rookie group model

WE ARE THE COCKSICK GUUUURLS~

as they say, the hourly chart is a scam/fake if it means something positive for a group I hate but legit if it's my group

sleep tight watermelon

fuck off japshopper

I did this dance challenge with IVE

and all I got was this lousy LIZ.

mire :D

Whatever floats your boat man, if you think people checking out a song reflects the overall popularity of the song then sure.

that's Leeso...

PUT REI BACK

Garam looks like Slimer from Ghostbusters.

NO i didn't see that thanks for linking!!
they dont have Jihans chats yet though... and it says there was no audio from soojin but she definitely sent some

lol or which ones u thinking about getting

twice, aespa, artms, QWER, maybe irene seulgi but it's a lot at once
ok gn

wony is literally the only question mark. nobody other than yujin is vaguely ready for post-ive existence.

wony hasn't acting debuted yet and she's not going to want to solo idol so it's probably premature to abandon ive yet. plus she can easily get a massive increase in her % of CF revenue since she's a CF goddess and just have a dual contract with SSE for music and kingkong for acting.

how much does it cost to buy a kpop group?

peace out

aka you

She's too shiny and plastic for TVwork. It'd be jarring in a two shot to cut from the male lead to that....thing.

a good one or just like everglow

jelly lol shes funny

YES so happy for them i saw the ending they cried and the encore and the circle dancing i loved it a lot
byeee

she's still a kid

Kyujin looks like she'd be absolutely feral in the hay.

can you imagine yeseo penetration? can you? can you?

no problem!! now dont have to do through ur video for the info stuff haha
nooo maybe they are still adding hopefully too
WOW ok well if u want can post the stuff u get would like to see it if u want no pressure haha
byeee

hmmm i wonder that this means

what kind of retarded reply is that

serious question
why do they bog themselves?

bogdanoff.jpg - 400x550, 47K

thank you guys <3 goodnight!

mire heart.jpg - 3400x5100, 2.97M

what do you mean

who's hand was that?
I love lily so much

the ugliest idol

exclamation point

they are generally not for sale, periodically the agencies they are at get purchased tho.

this happened to WeMe about 2 years into their contract. Some Chinese company bought fantagio as an investment but you still need a korean to manage the agency. Fantagio was sort of a shitshow for anyone other than Eunwoo after that

gn babygirl

if you think people actually listening to song, means people are listening to the song then sure.

i'd save you the trouble if you were keep quiet instead of looking like an imbecile

older men appreciate a little tasteful bogging

thank you too goodnight

cuz imma disband yea yea

its obviously you that got btfo and youre just pretending it was someone else lmaooo

Goodnight sweetheart *kisses forehead*

GOODNIGHT

she should invite eunchae and haerin over

what does he mean

thank you guys too ok goodnight!

gah_heart_2.webm - 864x662, 897.86K

Have you heard her lyrics? She is retarded.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Yeah. People listened to that song and then stopped listening to it. Thus it never beat it hourly peak. Speaks volumes of the quality of the song if that's the point you want to argue.

cjem announces izone reunion

their recent songs have been much worse than usual, might drop them completely (besides Minnie ofc)

she looks like that ugly ass nigga from treasure

don't know who that is but she's not one of my girls

I'd take her right there. You know she's wishing someone would.

groundwork or whatever that song was called was good

yeah you got me i'm a retarded divecel who loves lsf and defends their charts
schizoid retard

let's be honest she'll jump to the front of the line for anything but the biggest projects that are always going to go with an established female lead.

yoona, suzy, seolhyun, etc get put into projects as female lead when their skill sets are underwhelming so no reason to expect the same won't happen with wony especially after her sister had a successful debut

they're all good desu

Red dead redemption

kek youre so mad

Kiiikiii's music's all right, but they need to stop making those faces they make. The smirking. Rescene does it too and it gives me the fantods.

retards like you frustrate me it's true

sure that's why they were in the top 10 for nearly 200 hours until the newest releases. Keep going bro, you're getting there

how much further will you backpedal you're about to fall into a ditch dude

None of the girls you mentioned have such an uncommon face. Every time I see her I have to adjust my eyes, and even then I'm occasionally distracted by its odd shape and luster. She needs to unbog herself first, then the doors will open. Till then she's a liability.

kek btfo

Which idol has the best ears and why is it Leeseo?

You are the one desperately shilling about a number 9 hourly chart that you can't even prove happen. But keep going.

i thought hot was okay. a little too safe

no thanks

Backpedal on what? I said hourly charts don't matter and I don't care what their hourly charts are. So I won't have info on that. but that doesn't mean they charted at 9 for hourly that is something you have to prove happened.

yuqi is a cutie

who is this

esl can't read

shocker

Id lose less by wiping my ass with it

i have 13 bucks surely they arent even that expensive

sse will need to decide do they want kiiikiii to focus on natural girls in the country like I do me moving forward or do they want to focus on BTG/Groundwork type concepts.

my guess is that they'll pivot to I Do Me 2.0 for their next comeback since might as well try to get a wildly successful follow-up comeback. this will definitely happen if there is even a vague hint that wony will bail when Yujin and Wony can leave early

leesol-sui.jpg - 1440x1800, 766.38K

lol

Believe whatever coping fantasy that you have but please learn the definition of shilling you esl fuck.

HOT was bland, but nothing this year is worse than Rebel Shart. Only Gnarly comes close.

chimpedos are no life shut-ins

shocker

gfriend...

popular idols never bail. wony re-signs

we loved gnarly

its not gfriend on webm

I would lily

14:00

thats the hourly chart bro

dude, quit thinking kpg is reality, yeah sometime wony looks weird af in stage makeup but when she's doing commercial/editorial work they always have her in ideal shape.

k-dramas have fucktons of crew who are there specifically to make the mains look unnaturally good. wonyoung could easily slot into the generic k-drama female lead or female villain

onions.eon sucks ass now

hourly shart

Sex

that's what we're discussing?
melon is an hourly chart moron

don’t reply to the verbose aespa stan

Can I buy jeewon?

That they made 9 on the hourly? Lmao.

That's none of your business, weirdo

Here's the new spread on NMIXX since you're all wondering:
Squarely in the fuckable category are Sully and Kyujin
Then there's Jiwoo and Haewon, whom we'll call Meh or average
Bae is below average.
And under a heap of shit is Lily.

if you have to ask... then no

she doesnt have a good kdrama look. not bitchy or wholesome enough.

Melon has hourly and daily anon.

onions.eon

wtf is the filter change
basedeon

song quality actually mattering for poorfag nugus is just a meme

well, are you?

@grok describe lily's nipples in extreme detail

not again

i tried to say soye on because shes not based

Can Wonyoung even emote anymore? Like some surgeries prevent you from moving your face too much, and I feel like that happened with her.

It's fine, she just wants the American audience

*undue confidence and arrogance*
*backpedals off a cliff*
dives are so fucking embarrassing lmfao

song quality matters for gidle

get it haha

@grok describe moka

wtf
unsubbing from her premium insta

I'd like to see Karina and Winter do Dramas, desu.

barely. very tight AND shallow.

i can take the lily slander but not realizing haewon and jiwoo are quite fuckable is contrarianism or being retarded

I have Grok roleplay as Yunah and I do things to her

no

Imagine fighting for your life about a song that is number 9 on the charts. Can't be me.

lily and bae are the most beautiful girls in the world

i guess so. just sucks seeing all the fun nugus disappear while boring groups stick around long past their expiration date

Ngl HOT literally saved LSF career in Korea. Most groups in their similar hate train wouldn't even sniff top 100. It also helps the girls are one of the few 4th gen idols who stopped lipsyncing and started singing live since 2024

sullynod.gif

RDT_

oh fuck i get it now
i get why all those posts are shit
it makes so much sense

imagine stating a song was not number 9 on the charts, spending an hour insisting upon it, then crawling away with your tail between your legs (is definitely you)

yikes

IMG_5583.jpg - 959x600, 63.46K

It's amazing how much uglier the girls got from 4th to 5th gen.

Like I said I don't care about hourly sharts as much as you do anon.

and less kino

most likely true, the biggest most popular name of a group is almost always the one that stays because they can force the big concessions on that first contract extension.

there is a reason why yoona and taeyeon never left sm despite sm being a clownshow at times. hyuna was literally the only 4minute who stayed with cube.

yeah there is BP but it was clear that they all wanted to focus on solo projects primarily and maybe have an ot4 comeback every 2-3 years for maximum moneymaking

hate train

shut the fuck up

But Ian mogs everyone?

chaeyeon having that many cams despite not being one of the popular members

they know what the fuck theyre doing

and like i said you're embarrassing as fuck
next time try not to be an arrogant dipshit

But Ian can't even mog half the girls in her group?
(Juun, Stella, Jiwoo, and Yuha)

chaeyeon doesn't know what they're doing however

Embarrassing is thinking HOT didn't flop because it got a 9. Lmao.

HOT flopped!

proves the song charted well

b-b-but it's fake!

O-o-only daily charts count!

peaked at 9 on hourly chart and 10 on daily

It StiLL DoeSN't COUnt

there's nothing more pathetic than a goalpost changing bitch

wony

not bitchy enough

lol some of the kara and girl's day actresses are full on cyborgs and they still get acting gigs

wony sneer.webm - 698x586, 1.4M

divecel tries to restart the argument after losing bigly

sorry kid better luck next time

I mean if you consider 9 a success that's reflective of your standards. Lmao.

that's mean bitchy. drama villians need to be hot bitchy.

Wony could prolly play one of those chaebol mothers whose plastic faces twitches to register her disapproval in her son's choice of girlfriend.

yuha my beloved
