announcing an EP 4 months in advance is crazy

God, their team really hates Manon. Like the public disrespect towards her is so crazy to me. I hope she finds a way to get out of the contact. Also how is Hybe or Geffen siding with their management? Like I can't believe that no one is standing up for her not even the girls.

we have no idea what's happened/ing behind the scenes & what exactly are the girls supposed to say publicly when clearly not even Manon herself has been able/wanted to elaborate.. they shouted her out in their first show of the current festival tour and then (oddly) never mentioned her again. in their first interview where the question was finally allowed (last week) they used some vague ass phrasing to address her hiatus and just reinforced how much they love her... clearly they're being made to follow a script

she def seems to be out of the group and not because something happened with the girls (they're all following each other which doesn't necessarily mean anything but still), now why they've avoided announcing it (bc of recent ad deals that include her, to deceive fans/the public, punish her or whatever other theories might exist) we don't know

Sophia & Lara singing "Where have you been all my life" on this post while Manon seems in good spirits. The saga continues it seems because they seem really happy contrary to what they portray in their promo vids lol.

i think they will most likely release the second single in june and the third one along with the album in august so 4 months isn't that far off

edit: i'm just seeing the EP has 4 songs wtf they might as well release every track as a single and make this a compilation EP

i'm honestly bummed manon is gone for real. they really felt like the perfect group with the 6 member line up

the girls will be fine regardless though

EP.....

August date.....

Only 4 new songs.....

No Manon......

Stanning this group has been the most tortuous stanning experience in my 15 years of pop girl stannings....

Still no full album… Hybe will drag the Manon departure announcement for their next single at this rate if they don't say anything by the 30th

they said that the brand deals signed and given them coins for 6 members or else they have to return or even pay bigger damages for that, so they drag it out

to be fair, Manon really isnt fit to work in a gruesome manner, she's not used to it.

other girls were joining talent bootcamps since they were 5 years old

Manon is from the wealthiest European country with the best work-life balance. The girls were even too kind to have someone in their team not to be exerting the same effort.

good thing the members are not yet as big individually or that much of a solo stans like Blackpink or the Spice Girls,

even one member whoever that be is not really obvious when you watch them live

they've had a lot of stage performances being just 5 of them even Lara once didnt join one show and she was the main singer, yet it wasnt really that obvious

unlike other girl groups that it is very obvious and lacking if a member is gone in a show

Blackpink was even worse tbh. The potential BP had at their peak and the refusal of YG to go hard with them because of mysogyny is CRAZY work. BP at their peak couldve rivaled BTS, they were THAT massive.

La felicidad que carga presentando el album JAJAJAJAJA

I got GA tickets in London!

covers!

I need this cover in square format for my AM

EP is a K-pop thing, but since they promote in the US, they should push for albums instead
