Which idols debuted in nugu groups and then redebuted in more successful groups later on? (1 Viewer)

[athenaaa]

Yeseo, she debuted in Busters, and then Kep1er (who are arguably much more popular), and now people are seated for her debut in Limelight’s rebrand​

 

[Magician]

Jiwoong debuted in INX, then joined two other pre-debut groups and eventually joined ZB1

 

[ChiaraStar169]

Dongpyo was in one of those Produce groups (Wanna One? X1?) and then Tempest

 

[Belgizen]

The Dreamcatcher members who were in MINX

 

[RandAlThor]

Eunbi in Ye-A under the stage name Kazoo

was in this group called IZ*ONE.

Solji from EXID was in a vocal duo 2NB

 

[Ahsoka]

Dongpyo was in one of those Produce groups (Wanna One? X1?) and then Tempest

Im pretty sure X1 in their brief run were miles more successful than Tempest From the numbers I find, X1s only album sold like 640,000 albums, while Tempests last sold more in the 130,000 range. That’s not a bad number, but I don’t see a reason to think Tempest is more successful than X1, more likely the opposite.

yeah, I wanted to contribute but couldn't think of anything else people hadn't posted yet

 

[Ahsoka]

Somin (April to KARD) and Woodz (UNIQ to X1)

 

[alo]

lots of produce examples out there i'd say

she was never in a group before kiof, so i doubt she counts, but natty's solo career (post idol school) never really took off that much. she just dropped two songs and disappeared from the face of the earth... only to reappear with sugarcoat

 

[centen]

Mino. He was in BoM and then redebuted later with Winner.

[Ahsoka]

Okay that too ig

 

[eclipsoul]

izone was temporary and she's a soloist now but before that, kwon eunbi was in some random group named ye-a or something

 

[Moguri]

Yeseo, she debuted in Busters, and then Kep1er (who are arguably much more popular), and now people are seated for her debut in Limelight’s rebrand​

wow, I had no idea she was in another group before Kep1er! a very interesting careere for sure!

 

[Moguri]

Somin (April to KARD) and Woodz (UNIQ to X1)

ohhh I also had no idea Somin used to be a in a girl group before

yeah that was also the example that came to my mind first

 

[LoveYooShaSha]

Sooyoung before SNSD's debut - in 2002 she was in Route 0, a duo of Japanese+Korean members. I thought it was in conjunction with the 2002 co-hosted World Cup(but I think it wasn't official). The duo disbanded by the end of 2002.

 

[Ahsoka]

ohhh I also had no idea Somin used to be a in a girl group before

Yep, she was the leader of April before she left

 

[Moguri]

Yep, she was the leader of April before she left

woah I tried to look it up, she left like 2 month after their debut as the leader? Thats a bit shocking

 

[Boyo]

Dongpyo was in one of those Produce groups (Wanna One? X1?) and then Tempest

Tempest doesn't have a member called Dongpyo.
