I've been wondering about if SM will debut a NBG, after all almost all of EXO are enlisted next year so their main money maker is gone (Excluding TVXQ) and it seems like NCT is slowly building up which means there will be no harm towards them unless the BG becomes a big hit directly on their debut?
Honestly I dont think the remaining EXO members and TVXQ can carry SM for too long.. they need a new ''money maker'' and to renew the SM image and NCT isnt very appealing to the GP. I think debuting a BG in 2020 and a GG in the second half of 2021 sounds good.
What are your opinions on this, I personally think they will not debut the GG in 2020 but stall it to 2021 (In the mean time i think they'll slowly introduce us from 2020 - 2021 to the girls like they did with EXO) and maybe debut a EXO/SUJU esque group with 7 -11 members ..
Or is my theory too far fetched?

Tvxq are still top money makers in sm.. TVXQ made more money while they were in the army than the active bg's

All boy groups are NCT for the foreseeable future.

I know!! Thats why I said EXCLUDING TVXQ.
Even though they are top money makers i dont think they should keep carrying SM including EXO.
They just make so much money until they quit they will probably still out earn everyone. But sm has 4 bgs that make crazy money.
They can still afford to play with this NCT thing.

No. The girl group are probably gonna get revealed at the SMTOWN concert in Tokyo, we've been getting a lot of leaks about the girls recently after a long span of nothing so it kinda seems like SM are gearing up for their debut.
I mean that doesnt mean that they will debut, we all know how SM is with their GG's.
And i said even if they are revealed before, I hope SM will introduce them like they did with EXO, I dont want them to be introduced in like 2 weeks then BAAM a debut.
Maybe its just me :O

Either way, I don't see a entirely new boy group debuting before the new girl group. We might get some new NCT Dream members but that's about it...

I'm not saying that SM won't have enough money... I'm saying its time to stop leeching of the same groups and invest in a new one (whether its the BG or GG that ends up making the most money) and its time to renew their image
But hey, what do i know :O

I hope so, bgs seem to be the only thing SM takes somewhat seriously anymore and I'm kinda over the NCT schtick

I also hope it's a smaller bg :sanapray:

They are, SM is pouring money like water into NCT and by all accounts they plan on continuing the sub unit/ branch concept like Wav.
They are not likely to drop another bg because that would mean saying that NCT did not work as intended. If at the end of the day they get a Menudo/Johnney style group out of it they will be happy.

The Gg is 2 years late but they were super focused on rv in 2017, and supposedly the person in charge does not like gg.

I lowkey hope its a smaller BG as well but i also want 7+ members :pandarolleyes:
And I'm also lowkey tired of the NCT project (excluding the songs and my boy Kun <3)
I'm so sick and tired of SM giving the spotlight to the same 3 members..
I've also stanned them since 7th Sense and I'm sad and frustrated they haven't headed anywhere with the GP after 3 YEARS.
Maybe in 5 years the NCT project has soared, but as of RN we need a fresh GG and/or BG to gush over.

This was the problem with NCT.
Any type of group could be formed from the members, they even have a group for that NCT U.
I just do not think they really have a coherent plan.
They went all in on NCT it has to work. As it is they have 3-5 tier 2 bg called nct @@@

Why would it? I mean SM debuted NCT during EXO's peak?
It's been 3 years already and NCT is clearly not working out with Koreas GP, but NCT is a big ass project and it needs time to soar: they're not like other BG's. They have a solid core fandom so it doesnt matter if the new BG becomes famous, NCT will make a lot of money regardless.

YOu answered your question exo was cruising until such time as NCT is cruising SM is still in tinker mode.

What concept? by design NCT is all concepts.
Also most bg do not work with the GP they get a song or two to work thats about it.
Its not like TVXQ (super vocal dance)Super junior ( huge numbers) Shinee (experimental dance vocal) Exo (K M and 7 years after SJ).

pull out a small 4-5 member pure vocal/dance tvxq type deal?

All the buzz is a nct Japan/Thailand.

I honestly feel like the NCT project would work better with girls.
They will kill the girls look how much crap rv got adding 1 girl.

An NCT system was something that SM has wanted for almost two decades.

For the life of me, I can't understand how they can go through so much try so many versions of it (SJ, EXO) and plan for it so much just to botch it this way :kijoongstare:

Thank God they backed out of giving Soshi that concept :nayeonisdone:

No I seriously feel like they would be Koreas version of the 48 groups, Most BG stans are fixed stans and pretty hardcore when it comes to replacing members, while most GG stans love the idea of newer and younger girls debuting.
There is a reason there are only famous FEMALE 48 groups :O
I've never seen any other BG, internatonal or Korean with an AKB or NCT concept actually gain publicity, Most of the time when there's a AKB style KPop GG they don't hit big BC of their management, but SM could make it work...

Sorry, I just went off brainstorming !!!
