Every other unit had the same trainees from a specific period and this random group just formed bc SM moved onto RIIZE but still needed to fulfill contracts for a Japan unit.

I mean we all want NCT to end at this point, but I don't think it was fair for Haechan to say what he said in such a public way. It's the kind of thing you keep to yourself or say it privately. He knows very well that those Wish members wouldn't have had a say in how they were branded. It was SM's decision to make them a NCT unit ultimately. All this has caused are divisions and fans of the older units making comments about Wish "piggybacking" off of NCT's hard work. The Wish members still went through a training period so I don't think it's fair on them, especially since they are literally just debuting. 1
Zack Posted January 27 Posted January 27 This sounds scary. I hope it's not true or...poor Sorn (Sabrina was also signed to Wild Ent.)

The Wish members still went through a training period so I don't think it's fair on them, especially since they are literally just debuting. Yeah I agree that its not a fair sentiment, especially knowing that the final NCT unit was eventually gonna come. I think it might stem moreso from the fact that *most* of RIIZE (that were gonna be in NCT) was in that trainee period and the Wish members all look like newer trainees that are much younger. Then again you could make a similar argument about SuperM, where people like Taemin and Taeyong were almost a decade apart from debut age yet were in the same group. It sounds like Haechan's feelings comes down mostly to the idea of seniority too, especially within Korean culture and the industry. I do think its interesting that this speaks moreso to how weak NCT's branding is overall though. The branding is so heavily reliant on the trainees/members of the preexisting groups from like 2016-2018 that any newer faces are either greeted nicely or simply hated by the fanbase. It all goes back to how dumb the concept was for a rotating group, where A&R didn't have the foresight to realize people actually get attached to members. So when somebody does speak up finally the fanbase takes that sentiment and runs with it. WISH is probably not gonna do much numbers wise and that's pretty unfortunate because they haven't even debuted yet. 1

Haechan being trash, SM needs to kick him out asap. 1 1

Should he have enough PR training to not say it in public? Sure. But he's not wrong. 2

WISH is probably not gonna do much numbers wise and that's pretty unfortunate because they haven't even debuted yet. I just think for someone who has been in the public spotlight for as long as him, he should have been more careful with his words. I think it's less about seniority and more about his carelessness. The same way he didn't seem to care being caught smoking indoors etc even though it's frowned upon in Korean culture and has legal penalties. Because literally what can the Wish members do about being put in NCT? It's not their decision. I'm glad SM is declaring them the final unit though. NCT was always SM's ultimate form of the rotational/subunit concept they tried to push with SJ and EXO, but it just doesn't work in the same way it succeeds in J-Pop because the industry is different. RIIZE doing well shows that at least they haven't dropped the ball on launching a successful boygroup though. 1

I'm sure I'll like some of the songs at least but I need a song that actually FEELS worthy of being a single and actually smashing (at least among international kpop fans like Talk That Talk did) Talk That Talk was really such a BANGER it was a perfect balance of Twice’s old sound mixed with a new modern mature image 3

elevate Posted January 27 Posted January 27 I just noticed the thread is a little quieter the last few days... I guess Oprah got a job or one of his many cats finally killed him. Spoiler Or the forum is not working properly for some folks? I had this screen for four/five days last week lol
