Starship is one of those companies where the thing about new groups pushing out the older ones is way too real. Despite their size and status as a company, they have only four currently active groups, treated their first two groups as experiments, and are surprisingly incompetent. Things like having fake birthdays are a common occurrence in their groups apparently, and WJSN were sadly not their only group having inappropriate or dangerous staff members. China line were also their first foreign artists, with them previously only having Ten (yes, of NCT) as a trainee for a year previously. I hope the members that left can find happiness in a better place, and that the ones that stayed may be treated more fairly.

The chinese trinity not returning actually was a relief. The wjsn korean members already suffered and suffer right now with bad promotion of group, mistreatment and solo activities and lack of good budget for mvs, lack of world tours etc. So imagine if the chinese trio wasnt managed by a chinese company and was by St rshp instead lmao....they would suffer lower payement, fewer schedules, not being able to see their families, like many foreigner idols suffer in midtier companies. I am glad the chinese trio is doing well in cdramas, variety and music in their homeland and thankful for what they did for WJSN when they were a full group🥺😭. Now about the korean members, Yeonjung breaks my heart. She one of the most popular in the IOI/produce days, she has an angelical powerful vocal, and she isnt that talked or with buzz anymore on the mainstream of kpop. Like queendom stated, wjsn is that group the general public knows the songs but doesnt stan or even know if they are active or not. And other members like Bona and Dayoung, had recently been on hype bc of acting and variety, but barely promoted. St rship only did well in promotion and management with IVE, for some reason(I love Ive but its sad this fact). Strshp flaws remind me of FNC, both have talented visual and versatile idols and they are often known by other thing except idol career 😭. Btw, wjsn has a discography that ages so well. Even when they ditched the fantasy magic girls concept, the quality stayed! Like they had everything to be more known in 3rd generation, at least by side of GFRIEND, but the opportunities were missed..... But lets be optimistic. Even if they stay in the "middle", they could last a long time like Apink, Snsd.

If I had to be their management staff or producer, I'd like to plan the whole universe about "Cosmic Girls". It's such a waste. Why did the company faking the birthday to fit into a zodiac concept but then it just stop there. I'd like to make each MV a continuation like a drama, like how they were found, how they reach earth, what power did every member have, etc. The dreamy MV is really good tho, it's just so different from other group. I might make a mini stories or short movies just to fill the gap between each MV, to complete their "Cosmic" or "Zodiac" universe.

thank you so much for making this video. there's something so special about wjsn - i ulted them like a few days after i started stanning them and they're one of those groups that is really easy to get into and love. their career makes me really sad sometimes - they never had a real breakthrough and the majority of the kpop community doesn't know much about them. on top of that, starship doesn't promote them properly, they got hate for winning queendom 2 (which is ridiculous as it's not like they made the decision). at the same time, though, i was so relieved that 8 renewed. in some ways, them being a small group is really amazing as well, because they do have creative input - exy helped write 'done' - and they have a really genuine bond that can be rare to find. unnie line, and especially exy, pretty much helped raise dayoung. exy and seola have been friends for over 15 years. exy's the reason bona moved to starship. and despite joining the group after debut, yeonjung really found her place in the group and stayed when she could've left. i hope that in their next chapter, they get the recognition they deserve

Still, after learning their history it's breaking my heart that WJSN as in not managed by the company and was treated like a stepchild when IVE got debuted and gained famous instantly. Still, they take care of themselves as a group and remain solid, this is the same with the history of KARA as well. I admire their strong mental for still sane after getting abused by their company, forcing the member to go in the pool despite her aquaphobia, using laxatives for diet is pretty much fu*cked up and members have to hide their phones just order food 😭😭 as a KAMILIA and UJUNG I wish they could come back strong as ever before and their queendom expanding more and more.

I've been into Kpop for a while now...like 13-14 years and to me, WJSN is such a strong group (they give me SNSD vibes). Each member is basically the K-pop triple threat, ie, each member has the vocals (Exy is a boss rapper and don't get me started on Yeonjung, Dawon, Soobin, Seola and Dayoung (who is one of the craziest people I think to exist on this planet) as one of the best vocal lines in Kpop right now), the variety sense (they are all loveable clowns but Luda...Luda scares me with how crazy she is and the out-of-pocket statements that come out of her mouth 😂😂😂) and the acting prowess (especially Bona in 25,21 and Yeonjung and Soobin in their plays all the members who've acted thus far in anything are actually really strong in their roles). Yeoreum is such a talented dancer and an absolute cutie. Plus, they have such a beautiful group dynamic (they seem to genuinely enjoy being with each other) and one of the most diverse discographies out there. No two songs sound exactly the same for them (Exy is such a talented producer). I know that they may not be commercially successful right now but I truly believe that one day the rest of the world will wake up to the reality that Ujungs already know. I'm not too worried though, because they definitely have what it takes to maintain a successful and meaningful long-term career. I think that's more important. Much of pop culture today is so cookie-cutter and feels artificially flavoured but for me, WJSN is like a rustic, hearty meal. Complex, diverse and with a depth that truly makes the experience worthwhile. They've all got such beautiful personalities (now I dont know them personally but their genuineness shines through) and will be in the industry and continue to excel for a long while. They can only go up. (Also, side note, Eunseo, you beautiful, handsome, caring, gorgeous human being, my bias is Yeonjung but, you can, if you want to, run me over with a city bus).

I was annoyed by the chinese members departure. It was obvious from the start since they were managed by Yueha that they weren't truely in the group like the korean members and it was more like a "loan", like how football players are loaned out to other teams to get experience. The chinese members were always going to depart early eventually but Starship didn't communicate this so it looked like the chinese members just fled (like the chinese EXO members) so it caused bad feelings to korean fans. That's part of the reason korean fans don't want chinese members in kpop anymore because whats the point in getting attached to idols then they just go back to China after 3 years?

I would include non-Ujungs, but I'm sure anyone that watches this would become a baby Ujung. 😁 I love how they've grown organically as the years progressed defying any 7th year numbers of any other groups. It would be business suicide and flat out stupidity for SSE to re-align resources away from them given their trends because, even IVE's, success isn't promised--especially given how competitive 4th Gen and industry, as a whole, is. Let's hope and pray they're with us for many years to come. That can only be with the support from we (and future) Ujungs. I can't imagine a world w/o them and don't think anyone else can fill their shoes as long as they don't conspire to hide them (Bona fansign reference).

It cause Starship forcing them for Solo Project not as group again But this is sad to me when their Boygroup actively promoting but not for WJSN For fake Birthday cases, not only WJSN, i heard B1A4 agencies doing this too to follow the concept So Starship and WM had some problem with this For C-Line i think cause Yuehua cut the relationship with Starship but this is nonsense, right? And sadly never making their Japanese debut or Japanese Tour, it makes WJSN name in overseas being forgotten And before IVE there is no Starship Girlgroup debuting in Japan As Ujung i'm only hope WJSN popularity never faded although this is 4th Generation era Mistreatment from Starship in past i hope not happen to CRAVITY and IVE I really fear IVE get some bad treatment after their BOOM in 2021-2022 And FYI, Soobin and Luda will redebut as Virtual Idol named Kim Serena and Keuang this May as member of FE:VERSE

And as i know them after Mamamoo, which both have great foundation as singers, i really wish WJSN will stay strong as one of the rare concepts. And if compared with newer gg of ss, it's old vs new music concept. In example, WJSN songs are great for relaxing, studying or sleeping while IVE songs are for doing active things. If asked about visual of course WJSN have more variety, more concept & more stable. Starship really should give them more chances, more activity. Or just let them doing solo/units, whether it's acting, modeling, singing or producing songs for themselves or for others. In the recent VR Idols & their lack of activity, i really sad & also happy that few of them join in. With Luda really not resign with them & Dawon with her previous cases and her ninja-like aura of "you may don't see me, but i can slay" doesn't resign as well. Hope for the best for WJSN and Luda & Dawon in the recent & future~ My bias Eunseo, Soobin, Luda, Yeonjung.

Thank you so much for making this. This video felt so short for me but if I wish for it to be longer and include all their 7 yrs history, then I bet it's gonna be a whole documentary 😅. This was very informative especially to baby ujungs and even non fans to get to know wjsn and the hardships they experienced to get were they are right now just with the help of their fans and themselves. Starshit and YH are bullshits!!!! 🤬 Here's my take. I liked the company's idea of introducing the members in unit. That way the fans that time would not be overwhelmed with the number of members in the group and also for the fans to easily distinguish them. BUT THAT'S IT!! They just introduced them in unit and that's it. I really thought before that through those units, they would release in units some song and dance covers then the company and fans would make it go viral for them to be known in general public and gain more fans. But they wasted that idea and opportunity ffs.

I'm hoping the steam they've gathered will help them overcome SSE's realignment of resources focus to IVE. I'm sure we'll have them for a while, but not at the capacity we've had for the past couple of years. I suspect they'll slowly evolve into an Apink or 소녀시대, but I hope they're more active with the current members. Let's help/pray SSE sees their value, given our support, to help them organically grow and mature themselves w/the industry.

2:43 Why do they all have the same hair color? I am somewhat of a new fan. I discovered this group back in 2020. My first favorite song that I discovered them by was secret, and I’ve been obsessed since. My main problem other than not being able to fully sing the songs is that I have a very hard time telling the girls apart. I just wanted to know if that was intentional (by the company or agency they work for)

19:40 what also made orbits (loona fans) upset is that mnet announced on twitter that once loona recovered from covid, they would be allowed to perform their first stage and be evaluated, allowing them to get points albeit with a slight penalty. mnet ended up not doing this, but if loona received even the minimum amount of points available for the first round, they would've won the show. no hate to wjsn, of course; they and their fandom worked extremely hard, and obviously neither group had a say in this. it's an unfortunate situation all around, and i wish for continued success and happiness for both groups and their members.

It's really annoying how some K-pop fans think that if a group isn't popular overseas it means they're "not popular" there are groups that are well known in Korea, Japan, and China but not popular in America/ overseas, it doesn't mean they're nugus. WJSN are an example, they are very popular in Korea and China, their sales are high and their songs are high on the charts, they’re well-known yeah sure! They’re not as big as twice or bp but that doesn’t mean they’re “mid/nugu “
@minhyuklees1bebe902 Жыл бұрын
imo starship's obsession with insane solo promotions didn't really help that much to promote wjsn as a whole group, this was the same issue that monsta x faced during their earlier years because sse was only pushing 1 or 2 members to the public so the GP would only know the individual member and not the group they are in. it is never too late to agressively promote wjsn as a whole again, the girls are still relatively young and they can still reach a new peak. (by agressive promoting i don't mean a sudden influx with comebacks, sse just has to intensively promote their comebacks from radio shows to variety shows which helps in giving the song recognition) also since the difference in albums between monsta x and wjsn were mentioned, it is important to note that after sistar disbanded in 2017 sse was in a limbo financially thus resulting to the sudden influx of albums that monsta x were releasing, from 2 comebacks average in 2015 and 2016 to 4 or 5 comebacks from 2017 to 2021. the guys were vocal about how sse are overworking them and this issue wasn't really resolved until they negotiated for their contracts. hopefully that new ceo they hired last year would actually put shidae back to his senses that overworking isn't a good thing nor is underworking beneficial. (wjsn's next comeback should definitely be a full album now though, let the songs made by the girls see the light!)
