Wee Woo and We Like were not received well and there was a dip in album sales with We Likes album which Pledis decided to shelf them after minus Pristin V which was just an attempt to get Orange Caramel 2.0 which is way too fast to give up on a group especially for a company like Pledis which has Seventeen and Nu'ests revival for income.

the double edge sword of self producing.
I actually think Wee woo went over ok in Korea but i fans hated it.
We like i think no one liked :)
Pledis did do 2 version for each album an extra cost.

v did not actually do that bad considering it was half the team.

Honestly pledis and to some extent the girls punted. Maybe the ioi kids made enough to balance the books what with them self producing much of the content.
Take Nature and Dream note neither has had anywhere near the success of pristin yet both are still in there working.

Pledis gave up. If april can still be a going concern with numbers like that then Pristin could have especially since they have out side earners.

They were in the 20k sweet spot but things do not look great.
Hopefully Mina on RM signals they are still in the game.

Not even just groups like Nature and April just look at Stellar who only ever had 3 mini albums which sold 8k in total together and only 1 song sold over 50k digitally but that was only 150k with Marionette and they lasted 6 years reaching 10 releases total so companies seemingly just giving up on Pristin, Gugudan and April is really mind boggling

Pristin had fans and a model of fan interaction with the cover v lives that was super popular i felt. Yet Pledis could not capitalize.
