Exciting year for 2020

Tir · 4 January 2020

Most of these were already predicted or confirmed but there are a few noteworthy rumors. CUBE debuting a new girl group with Chowon and Joohyun being one of them. Honestly feels like (G)I-DLE just debuted

Yeah I'm not sure if Cube can handle 3 active GGs at the same time. I do wish for Chowon to debut soon but they've already got CLC and IDLE. Could this be the beginning of the end for CLC

Yeah that's a huge concern. The article said that CLC will focus on individual activities so that's already not a good sign for the group. I thought the group would be on somewhat of an upward trend following their decent 2019 with three comebacks (No, Me, Devil) so I was maybe hoping they'd continue with that momentum. Maybe they didn't do as well as CUBE would've hoped after giving them three comebacks, who knows.

And Devil was just a single right? Was this a last hurrah or something?

Elkie has already been in a drama, Yeeun has some popularity after her MC gig, and Seungyeon would be a great soloist since she's a great all rounder, Sorn has her YouTube channel, but I'm not sure what the others would do. Tbh I've never seen an agency successfully manage 3 active girl groups, even SM, so I'm not really confident on what Cube's plans are. IDLE is hot rn and Soyeon works a lot to keep pumping new music, and they'll surely focus on their new group if it debuts this year, so CLC is on shaky ground.

Giving hope to the hopeless (as in i hv no hope this will come true in 2020), maybe in the next 10 years if we're lucky.
