This sounds VERY interesting. Completely against K-pop’s traditional group structure, and hence bound to be met with resistance from fans. I’d love to see it though SM will have to remember to prioritize the original groups.

    I think they did something similar before, does SM The Ballad ring a bell? Kyuhyun (SuJu), Jonhgyun (SHINee), Jay (Trax), and Jino (who’s now with Pentagon).

    So it’s like a suPER collab??? I like this idea.

    Although SM tryna make this a group with regular comebacks when they can barely give WAYV a proper album is amusing.
    My bet is they’re doing it to keep things interesting what with SHINee and EXO’s enlistments.
    Taemin and Ten… oh boy. The dance. O_O

      I like the idea too. They’re making an official announcement on Aug 8, so until then we don’t really know how it’ll function,

        Ah seems August is a busy month for K-pop again. I think it is every year to be honest.

        I like the idea just because I like the idea of more cross group, in company collabs, which really don’t happen as much as they should/could.
        But it’ll probably effect the promotion of NCT which probably isn’t a good thing since their promo is already wack 😹

      I’m SO excited for Taemin and Ten too. I could watch them dance and listen to their songs all day long. <3

    Dear SM, all I am asking for is a new girl group. Please.

    I am all here for this. Then Taemin needs to go into the military, lol.
    Now I’m curious as to why backlash.

    I wonder if this would this interfere with solo/ group artists and their work? Because as much as I love the line-up, I wouldn’t want it to jeopardize the (amount of) music they’re already making.
