Many people commented that it has been a while since the group promoted, with their last comeback “Bomb Bomb” having been released five months ago. Fans of the group have resurfaced a past live stream member Jiwoo did that gave insight as to why co-ed groups have difficulties with a comeback.
She reveals that producers generally write songs for one-gender groups. This means that most producers will make songs that are specifically for girl groups or boy groups. If not, then they will create music for duets or soloists.

Since there aren’t many co-ed groups in K-Pop, producers typically don’t make music for mixed-gendered groups. Because of this, KARD usually has to request songs to be written for them.

KARD’s issue is that since songs aren’t readily available for co-ed groups, they can’t pick from available samples music or guides as other groups do. Fans believe this is why BM took thing into his own hands and produced their next track.

Many hope that more producers create music for co-ed groups, saying that it might help more groups like KARD debut.

If this means that we'll get more original music from the members themselves (most likely just BM then) I'm all for it, instead of having to wait half a year or even a whole one I prefer if they themselves release their own music more than once a year

Ikr, it sounds more like DSP is talking about what they dream they could do and not what they actually do lol

Or maybe they forgot they have a group that isnt coed

 

[yeji]

it‘ just dsp

I do hope tho that co-ed get‘s popular. It gives an intresting mix in general in my opinion

Let me be blunt. It's not hard for co-ed groups to have a comeback it's hard for unsuccessful groups to have a comeback. AAA have been promoting for 14 years straight.

On top of this, it's hard for them to win many end of year shows, since they aren't a boy or girl group. Awards bring in a lot of attention, and that seems to be something they unfortunately lack.

Uh so where's April then if that makes sense

I MISS APRIL SO MUCH ...

 

[perhapz]

I mean, 5 months isn't that long...
But I get what they mean

 

[Evergreen]

A pity they have so much potential

Are you actually comparing a group coming from an almost ruined company in a small market like Korea to one like AAA which comes from Avex A.K.A owners of the half of japanese music market??

Lol coming from Avex means almost nothing for success, there's plenty of flops coming out of avex on the daily.
