I swear some companies... (1 Viewer)

Make girl groups just so they can have an excuse to be around young pretty girls all the time.

That's the only reason I can think of to debut a group and spend tons of money on a guaranteed failed project.

Why the fuck do 50 girl groups debut every year?

Why do 100 groups GG/BG debut... I don't know how these companies even begin to function and get the licenses and stuff to have real people trained in those conditions. They use people that are eager to become idols but not all people that are eager deserve to be idols or are talented... while some that try the hardest are never given a chance cause of stupid reasons like... being too short.

In any case, they seem to expect anything "they" make is going to suddenly explode onto the scene and be mind-blowingly good... even tho it almost never will be. The only new group that wasn't from a big company or a company that already has a successful group... is ATEEZ... the end, fin, zeroooooo other groups. I mean actually popular ones... Actually maybe Loona and OnlyOneOf and they were lucky to have such well made marketing campaigns.

I wonder if companies actually make money from the dance etc. classes and trainee debts even if the trainees don't end up debuting. That way it might be even financially profitable to make nugu companies that have small change to actually debuting group that is going to make it.

Another reason would probably be same as with idols. No matter how hard it's to become idol or singer, people still keep trying hoping that they make it. Maybe these companies have dreams of being the next BigHit, even if the odds are around same as winning in lottery.

Dreamcatcher is slowly but surely climbing up as well... Mamamoo is from a previously unknown company too I think!

True but at this point both are pretty old so that's why I didn't add them, I wanted to mention Oneus but they are under Mamamoos company so them too

I get boy groups though. Even the most nugu boy groups break even I'm betting. Most make their companies some decent money.

many more companies are created and they will also want to debut a group - be it a gg or bg.
I get that so many debuts can seem to much but that's what KPOP has turned to.

And they don’t even make the effort to be innovative. They hope to make it without something that would make their new group stand out.
