After weeks of audition shows, and get to know to the members better, finally the owner of the company, Yang Hyun Suk, officially introduces BLACKPINK successor; BABY MONS7ER (read: Baby Monster)

 

Initially intended to be 5 members group, because he had other plans for 2 other members who didn't get chosen, (2 different  girl group is about to start as well), but because of fans supports, YG changes his mind and took OT7 together.

BABYMONS7ER consists of 3 South Koreans, 2 Thais, and 2 Japanese members.

 

Debut announcement will come at later date.

im sorry but the big kpop groups dont work for me - 1-3 members always fade into the background

they seem talented but even 4 members seems like the max a group should have 

they shouldve started with 3-4

I understand your way of thinking, at first when I started listening to kpop I thought the same but then I saw that a group with several members can work, for example seventeen is a group with 13 members but each one shines and doesn't fade into the background as you say

The sad part about the ages is a lot of kids that age will sign to a company and just be put under rigorous training for literal years. Like some could be in training for 7+ years before they’re even considered to be assigned to a group. Then you’re put through years of performances and more work, just to maybe not even like the people you’re paired with or potentially hate the music or whatever. A wild system they have for these kinds of groups

one of them is 13 years old???

Music cannot be more capitalistic than this.

Fam, Miley starts at 13 too when Hannah Montana airs, this is not exclusively K-Pop problems

Unethical. Nobody should debut until they’re at least 21. 

Kids at such a young age.. their brains are still developing. They will have issues for the rest of their lives. Even older idols like Solar and Solji talk about how they’re grateful for debuting later.

After seeing what YG did with 2NE1 or Ikon, I'm worried about Blackpink. I don't trust that company, also they are TOO young wtf? 

[Simon 797]

Sick world. No one should support that

my exact thoughts. we can criticise young people debuting in the music industry but if you apply this thinking to kpop, you also have to apply it to lorde, miley cyrus, taylor swift, olivia rodrigo, billie eilish and so on (aka. half of the 'pop girls').
