Teaser "REiviO" unveiled! new girl group with a concept inspired by Joan of Arc and the French Revolution (1 Viewer)

[StanBiSH]

their slogan is "Welcome back, this is our fortress.", they are going to hold their debut showcase in March of this year

they aren't signed to a label yet but the members stated that their aim is to prove that through hard work the ordinary citizens of the idol scene can also become as successful as groups from big companies, that's the "revolution" they want to bring on

Joan of Arc is my favorite historical figure and i find the French Revolution an interesting period of time so i'm kinda interested already

they haven't released any song yet but i'm sure when they do heads are going to roll

............................................................ ....................................... My brain honestly can't process this. It's such a different concept. I want to say that sounds amazing and that sounds stupid at the same time.

eh i don't think it sounds too crazy, that said while the ideas Joan of Arc and the French revolution are similar they are also different, i think it would be better to just focus in a single one

also i appreciate the FF-esque vibes from the logo

I don't know much about the japanese idol industry, but are there examples of something like this working out?

do you mean a group going from nobodies to becoming big name artists?

well there is "BiSH"!

Today is "Orchestra" 6th anniversary! BiSH's breakthrough song that took them from a small indie act to one of the biggest groups in Japan - K-Pop Source — Keeping the K-Pop Forum Spirit Alive

more than 5 years of being their fan and this is still my favorite BiSH song, i wouldn't necessarily call it their best song because across their vast and diverse discography it would be really hard to even make a top 5 what i want to talk about is the impact it had in the members and fans, we...

yes thats what I meant, I just tried to see it from the kpop perspective and in korea it seems completely impossible that something like that would happen

even the unexpected successes like momoland or brave girls at least had a label behind them

but yeah, if you don't dream big, you can't achieve big things

i haven't keep up with Kpop since 2018 or so but i believe BTS also came from a small company, right?

yes they did, but its not so small anymore

I think BTS is by far the most extreme example for such an unexpected success
