oh wow 

Let us hope Donatella slipped Queen Ning a contract to sign at the dinner table 

 

She has been eating Versace all year, especially her Cannes moment with the Versace dress. It's time to sign! 

2023 was a cute year for kpop, although 2022 was WAY better

 

- Jungkook solo debut, managed to get an actual smash hit.

- V solo debut

- NewJeans, IVE and (G)-IDLE continue to dominate.

- aespa best selling girl group album this year, and snatches a hit.

- oh my girl flops

- fifty fifty gets the biggest kpop girl group smash

- twice fails to get a hit

- kep1er nowhere to be seen

- blackpink performs at coachella

- zerobaseone debuts

- itzy gets a semi-hit

- somi wins and gets an actual hit

- stayc manages to get a cute hit, still can't dominate (no shade).

- sm debuts riize

- yg forgets about babymonster

- exo actually gets a comeback

Japan isn't letting 'CASE 143' go 

 

 

 

 

 

I wonder If EXO will still comeback next year as Suho and Sehun mentioned. I suppose It gets harder with the members in different agencies. 

If they don't, I'm happy the members are slowing getting free. The abuse/mistreatment they went through in their career are too much.

that’s the way it is meant to be since the beginning. Natty is the star and had the best solo.

Your post implied that RV's production center is doing a better job of getting things out quicker and that's simply not true unfortunately. They have had essentially zero musical output as a group this year. 

 

Joy being out for a month or so doesn't explain why they didn't come back before the tour,

SM releases from January(excluding digital singles or repacks of projects from last year) to May(5 month period):

• Spoiler

  • GOT mini
  • Yesung album
  • Onew album
  • Kai EP
  • DoJaeJung mini
  • aespa mini

 

SM releases since June (excluding repacks, digital singles, or not yet released projects)(4 1/2 month period):

• Spoiler

  • Taeyong mini
  • SHINee album
  • EXO album
  • NCT Dream album
  • Yunho mini
  • Chen Japanese mini
  • NCT album
  • Key mini
  • Kyungsoo mini
  • Yesing mini
  • 127 album
  • RIIZE debut

   

The production centers have measurably improved the pacing of releases at the company and the timing of them spinning up to full speed worked against RV. I never said that Red Velvet haven't been mismanaged in some ways or that the timing of this comeback isn't extremely unfortunate, but the FACTS are that the production centers were established to streamline the process of getting content out quicker(and so far they're doing exactly that) AND Red Velvet will essentially have an entire team to themselves like NCT once TVXQ are done with promotions.

 

I already said in the post you intentionally cut up into a strawman(just like you intentionally exaggerated the gap between R to V and 3rd album production) that none of these things have anything to do with group musical output but here goes:

why the tour was so badly planned and skipping whole continents

SM signed a contract with an unknown promoter with zero ties to the US. NCT has used the same team for their European tours but work with Live Nation in NA. Red Velvet, who still doesn't have a real US distribution deal, do not have the same connections that an NCT or aespa would. It seems like a combined case of SM underestimating Red Vevlet/Luvies as usual and a rookie tour promoter screwing things up.

nor does it explain why Wendy's solo was canceled or why none of the other members were thrown a solo comeback/debut, when we know for example that Irene has solo material sitting in the vault.

We ALL know why Irene's flawless solo songs are sitting in the vault. Her finally taking endorsements again is a sign that they might finally see the light of day next year.

Other groups have not had this level of ghosting from the company this year. 

Taeyeon is more popular than RV and in the exact same boat(except her last comeback was even longer ago than Red Velvet), botched tour, solo comeback plans vanishing, etc. Even NCT went almost 6 months without a real album which is unheard of. Things were BAD at the start of this year and you're downplaying it. Even aespa had a fully finished album ready to release by February that we're still getting songs from 3 days before the RV album. Things are now improving and SM is releasing music at an unprecedented rate.
