The trainee that people predict to have a high possibility to debut through YG's girl group survival show

 

Ahyeon

Her singing skill is at a main vocal level, plus her face is also at a main-visual level

Yang Hyunsuk seems to really like her, saying that she's 'the girl who has a lot of talent'. People who watch Baby Monster's survival show know that Ahyeon is most likely to debut. 

+ YG will be announcing the trainees who will debut in Baby Monster tomorrow

theqoo

-The company already revealed 7 trainees, but they're only going to debut 5 members in the end? What about the trainees who don't make it to the final lineup?ㅠㅠ I really hate this strategy...

-YG needs to close down if Ahyeon doesn't get to debut...

-I think she's going to be a top star just like Jennie...

-So this is really a survival show??? They're not going to debut the 7 of them??

-But even though YG keeps saying they will eliminate some trainees, they actually will still debut them in the end, right?

-It's my first time seeing her and I'm already amazed by her... I hope she gets to debut...

-The 7 of them are talented and beautiful... YG should just debut them allㅠㅠ

-Ahyeon is an all-rounder with charms... Leejung even said that Ahyeon's dance skills and facial expressions are amazing... 

-I know Ahyeon will be a superstar one day... 

-I really hope Haram, Ahyeon, and Rora get to debut...

-I hope she gets to debut with Pharita...

-Whoa... Her cover of Dangerously is really amazing...

-I love how she hits the high notes effortlessly

Teen Top's C.A.P recent Instagram post

 Hello. This is Bang Minsu. 

First of all, I would like to apologize to those who were hurt by my words and actions. 

I was aware that my actions were selfish, only thinking about myself despite knowing that it could cause controversy. 

I knew that my behavior was also hurtful to my teammates, whom I've been closer to than my brothers for a long time, as well to those who believed in and supported me. 

All this time, I felt like I had been wearing clothes that didn't fit me. Now, I want to take off those clothes and I ended up making the wrong actions. I have no excuse. It was entirely my fault and negligence. 

I apologize to my teammates and company, who have understood even my immature behavior. I also apologize to the fans who may have been surprised and disappointed by my actions. 

I hope that there will be no more harm to Teen Top members and company staff who have been working hard for the upcoming comeback. I sincerely apologize once again. 

Thank you to everyone who has loved Teen Top's C.A.P. until now. I am truly grateful. 

theqoo

-For someone who doesn't feel like he suits to be an idol, he promoted for a really long time...

-Whoa... He must've really wanted to leave the group...

-I can totally understand him. I think quitting is the best option for him. I personally think it's better to just retire as an idol if he doesn't feel like it suits him. 

-It must've been really hard for him all this time. I hope both C.A.P and his teammates are happy now.

-I sincerely hope he will find something he actually likes and live happily...

-I can't imagine how tough it must've been for him to force himself to do something that doesn't suit him...

-Forcing yourself to do something that doesn't fit you will only make you sick. No one else will take responsibility for your life anyway. I hope he will find and pursue something that makes him happy. 

-I think him quitting the group was the best option for both himself and his group.

-He made the right decision. No matter how long you've been in the industry if it doesn't fit you, it will only harm your mental. It's the best for him to leave before that happens. 

-He must've endured a lot, considering that he has been doing something that doesn't fit him for that long. I think it's the best way for both parties. 

-If being an idol doesn't fit him, it's better to leave. We also resign and change jobs if it doesn't fit ourselves. It's harder for idols because of their contracts.

-It's the best way for both parties anyway...

-Seriously, though. I don't think he suits to be an idol. I think he may be better suited for something other than being an idol, I would be really happy to support him;; Not to mention that his physical figure didn't suit Teen Top. Anyway, I'm looking forward to Teen Top's new album.

-It sounds like a better decision than forcing himself to do something that he doesn't want to do. I hope he can live comfortably while doing what he likes which is painting!

-That's great! I hope all of them can live happily while doing what they like to do...

-Hul... I can't believe he left just like that. It seems like they were nothing more than just work colleagues after all.

-There's nothing good from forcing him to stay when his heart is already somewhere elseㅋㅋ

-I didn't expect him to actually leave the group, but it seems like it's for the best. If he doesn't want to do it, why should he be forced to continue with the group activities just because there's still some time left in his contract? It's the job he chose when he was young, and people change their minds over time anyway. 

-That's right... I think this is the best solution they could come up with...

-Nowadays, it's not necessarily better to forcibly maintain the original members. Times have changed. Kicking members like him could be the way to save the team.

-I love how they kick him out right awayㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Looks like he really doesn't want to continue being an idol now...

-I didn't even know he was still in the group...

너 아직도 자니? 너 아직도 자? 너 인생을 그렇게 허비하고 싶어? 진짜 너도 참 너다. 아직도 안 일어났니? 내가 너였으면 그렇게 안 살았어. 나였으면 부지런하게 살았다고. 아직도 안 일어났어? 아이고 진짜 나는 너무너무너무 인생이 안타까워. 나였으면 지금쯤 일어났겠어 pic.twitter.com/paM5SlDJZg

Are you still sleeping? Are you really going to waste your life like this? You're such... Oh Gosh. You haven't gotten up yet? If I were you, I would live my life diligently. Are you still not awake? I feel really sorry for your life. If I were you, I would have already woken up by now.

-I asked you to wake me up, not to roast me... Do you think being pretty is everything?

-I... Didn't think it would sound this mean...

-The other members are laughing beside her, it makes me feel like they're laughing at meㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-I think Karina would be a really great actress...

-I'll wake up... while cryingㅠㅠㅠ

-Did she use to get scolded a lot when she was younger?ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ I think she would be a really great actress...

-Aren't you being too mean to me...? I'm gonna cry at this point...

-She sounds like my mom...

-I asked you to wake me up, not to make me cry...ㅠㅠ

YG's boy group, Treasure

theqoo

-They still manage to hold an Asian tour in the middle of all that... YG is always like that...

-This is how iKON's schedule used to look like and they ended up not renewing their contracts with YG and left the company together... They recently just released some songs and seem to be doing really well. YG is really frustrating. This strategy doesn't work anymore these days. They're still using the same strategy from 10 years ago. I feel like they don't care about anything else besides money.

-YG is still doing this...

-They did the same thing to my favorite idol group and it caused them to lose a lot of Korean fansㅜㅜ Japanese fans talk a lot, but they don't buy albums, though...

-I mean... They have a lot of Japanese members in the group. I think they have 4...? I can totally understand why they do this...

-Judging by how they're taking it this far, it looks like the group is really popular in Japan? But I think they should give more attention to Korean fans too. I know the group's name, but I don't know any of their members' names...

-I don't mind at all. They're doing that because they earn a lot of money from Japan. Besides, the group also has a lot of Japanese members...

-Whoa... They're holding 2 fan meetings in 1 day?? They never do that in South Korea... I don't think they should be looking down on Korean fans, though...

-It looks like Treasure is really popular in Japan...

-Even Japanese fans are questioning about when will Treasure go back to South Korea...

-I can totally understand this, especially if the group is really popular in Japan...

-Just YG being YG... They also treated Bigbang the same way back then...

Infinite's father a.k.a Woollim Ent.'s CEO, Lee Jungyeop transfers ownership of the group's trademark rights with no conditions

 On the 8th, Infinite's leader, Kim Sunggyu established 'Infinite Company' and prepares for the group's activities. 

Infinite, who will celebrate their 13th debut anniversary this year, is a six-member boy group consisting of Kim Sunggyu, Jang Dongwoo, Nam Woohyun, Lee Sungyeol, L, and Lee Sungjong. Since their debut in 2010, they have produced hit songs such as 'Be Mine, 'Man in Love', 'Before The Dawn', etc, leading the 2nd generation of Hallyu. In 2017, Hoya left the group.

Infinite is the first idol group produced by Woollim Ent. At the time, Woollim Ent.'s CEO, Lee Jungyeop was so passionate about the group that he took out a loan to produce the group's music video. As a result of Infinite's success, Woollim Ent. was able to build its current headquarters in Donggyo-dong. 

Right now, Infinite's members have separated from Woollim Ent. Nam Woohyun, who stayed with the company until the end, moved to JFlex Ent. after his contract expired last year. However, they all still maintain a strong bond relationship with their producer, Lee Jungyeop. It is known that Lee Jungyeop has a special affection for Infinite, as they were together during his youthful days. 

According to the officials, Lee Jungyeop recently transferred the trademark rights of the group Infinite with no conditions, saying that he supports the group's activities. According to the trademark registration inquiry service, Woollim Ent. applied for the trademark rights in 2010 but as of April 21, 2023, all rights have been transferred to Infinite Company. 

This is a rare case in the Korean music industry, as there has been intense conflict between the agency and the artists over trademark rights. In fact, in Highlight's case, the group debuted under the name 'Beast' under their former agency, Cube Entertainment. However, they had to change their name due to trademark disputes. Shinhwa also filed a lawsuit together to transfer the trademark rights and after three years they were able to regain the rights to their name and returned as Shinhwa in 2015. 

On the other hand, Infinite's members who have settled to their new company, 'Infinite Company', are planning to hold a live broadcast on their official Youtube channel on June 9th, their debut anniversary.

-I'm not a fan, but I'm crying to hear thisㅠㅠㅠㅠ

-Whoa... I have never seen any celebrities part ways with their companies in such a heart-warming wayㅋㅋㅋ It's such a great sight to see. I'm sure their fans are happy to hear this. As for the other disrespectful companies, they should take a look and learn from this case.

-Whoa... I hope the other companies would take a look and learn from Woollim Ent.

-Whoa... He transferred the trademark rights on Sunggyu's birthday with no conditions... I'm really touched

-I had never imagined there would come a day when I say this... Thank you, Lee Jungyeop.

-That's the least thing he can do for the group that helped him to build the company building...

-I'm really looking forward to Infinite's activities...

-Cube Ent, are you seeing this?? You should learn from them!!

-I'm so jealous of them... My favorite group had to change their name...

-Lee Jungyeop...? Gave the full trademark rights...? With no conditions...? I have to admit I'm kind of touched to hear this...

-Whoa... Not to mention that it's Lee Jungyeop's birthday present for Sunggyu...

-Jungyeop... That's really romantic of you...

-Thank you, Jungyeop... I have a lot to say about him, but I won't say it... Because I'm really grateful for him for doing this...

-Thank you, father...

Teen Top's Cap swears during a live broadcast, "Contract ends in July, considering not participating in the group's comeback"

 During a live broadcast on his personal Youtube channel 'Bad Boy', Teen Top's Cap communicated with his fans. 

When a viewer left a comment asking him not to smoke during the broadcast, Cap responded, "Someone just said that I shouldn't smoke. Do you know why that pisses me off? First of all, there are people who don't even watch my broadcasts suddenly popping in just because my group is going to make a comeback and told me that I shouldn't be doing this here. Frankly, I don't like XX (Swearing)." 

He continued, "Why do those people come to me and do XX (Swearing)? When I think about it, they're not even my fans but I'm still part of the team, so I'm worried that this might harm my team. If you didn't like what I did, you could've talked to me at least 6 months ago."

TOP Media has confirmed that Teen Top will be having a full-group comeback in July and is currently preparing for a new album. This album is their first release in three years since they released a special album in 2020. It will be released to celebrate the 13th anniversary of their debut. 

During the live broadcast, Cap mentioned, "This may sound unbelievable to you but I'm thinking about not XX participating in the group's comeback. My contract with the agency ends in July."

-Isn't he the leader of that group...? This is shocking...

-I liked Teen Top since I was really young. He has always been like that, I'm not even surprised at all. 

-Then don't (participate in the comeback);;ㅋ

-I used to be a fan of Teen Top and went to their fansign several times. His personality has always been that bad. 

-Does he not even think of his teammates?? He's the leader of the group... What was he thinking;; Being in an idol group is like being in a group project...

-I remember how shocked I was when he said on a TV show that he would hit her daughter and keep her locked up at home if she had one... The fact that a person like that became an idol...

-Then you should leave the group. What did the other members do wrong to deserve this?

-Why is he living his life like that...

-He has always had such a bag image... Why is he still in the group after all this time?ㅋㅋ

-I'd rather have Teen Top cancel their comeback than have you be a part of it...

-I can't imagine how pissed off the other members are to hear this... Oh Gosh, you don't even have to worry about us... Just leave the group.

-He's still in the group?
