Idolmaster churns out a list of 37 hopefuls for the public to vote for. Receive vote. Pass 20. Shortly after, producers take additional wave of auditions and have a closed voting session. Bunch of those 20 up and vanish, with 7 people the producers chose coming in to create a roster of 19. Now with these 19, they've create two teams and have proceeded to create content which will be voted on through youtube. 5 of the weakest will be dropped. Meanwhile, additional auditions are taking place. I suspect through this system of theirs they'll eventually just phase out all the people they originally auditioned and suddenly have a roster of 10 at the end that no one actually had a say in. Like yes, auditions, call backs, and dropping people is the norm. Yeah, survival programs are a thing. But this isn't a survival program seeing as it isn't an aired process and not a thoroughly audience involved process. Also they're actively filming content which they'll probably use in the end product drama as showing the final roster doing all this training and surviving all these cuts. So Wings, Cocosori, half of The Ark, and one chick from The Seeya are in this meat grinder whose business practice is transparent only half of the time and they're creating content which they probably won't see a monetary benefit of or even a name credit because this is all an "audition" phase. Idol life. | ||

First of all, FNC Ent. has been under fire for a long time for doing a lot of stuff from the shadows: constant barrages of blatant media play such as grouping/comparing Seolhyun with famous people, Jimin somehow winning Unpretty Rapstar, their groups winning music shows and awards although they're clearly not in a position to win anything, etc. This has been going on for years and months. FNC Ent. is in the best position to become the second CCM/MBK, if they aren't already getting more hate. Then there were the recent scandals: the history scandal that was handled so badly that they probably made it even worse. And now AOA just won 3 shows, of which only 1 publishes its numbers; Music Bank, and they publicly announced that the numbers were wrong. And the other 2 wins are even fishier. If only FNC would understand that you don't need all this shadowy shit, and just focused on managing their groups properly and giving them better songs. Just listened to it for the first time; great song indeed. Gil's unique voice is what does it for me. MuBank doesn't seem fishy, just stupid, since they managed to screw up other numbers as well, which indicates it wasn't deliberate. Plus if you were going to do something fishy, you would do it on another figure that wasn't quite so easy to check by considering published sales information. | ||

Who ready for some buttcheeks? You know what? They're about to hit the three year mark without a single roster change, I'm going to put 5 kpawp bucks down on Wa$$up ending up being the next Shinhwa. Group that twerks together, stays together. - Without a single roster change, or drama that has broken to the media, up and forgot to put that last point. Rainbow is a timebomb imo, Jaekyung nail polishing Jisook's gundam figure is bound to cause some sort of fall out. | ||

Rainbow also hasn't had a member change. And that's about all I can think of. Girl group wise at least. | ||

Fuck me, body was never ready for new EXID. Dat LE drop, there will never be enough turrets to defend against it. - https://vimeo.com/augustfrogs/videos Director's vimeo. Can't wait to have a 2+ gb .mov. - Damn, looking at the showcase. As happy as I am that they finally moved away from Yama and Hot Chicks with her "I'mma just have you wave your ass at the camera every 10 seconds", sort of disappointed that whoever they used went the total opposite direction and gave LIE a somewhat lethargic and lacking in impact choreo. | ||

EXID's new song is kinda okay, but I wonder why they added the MLG horns, doesn't fit at all :/ Agree, I really dig LE's voice but not Jimin at all. To me there is a clear difference between them dunno maybe Im just odd... Dear lord | ||
