A 10 second solo dance practice vid? I don't understand NHM rn. They need to say something, ANYthing, about the crowd funding because the fandom is a mess, and a statement would help calm things down. NHM is confusing.
NHM being broke is only a rumor. Very little money is made in Korea so for example, an artist can make more in a week promoting in Japan than a year in Korea. U-Kiss has been very popular worldwide and in Japan and album sales overall haven't been terrible. I'd like to think NHM is not hurting for money. (I don't know NHM finances; I'm just talking about from what I see.)
Oh and let's not forget that Kiseop recently bought a BMW and had an Audi before that. Plus there is that house he bought. Yes, he is a very good saver. I think it would take him a much longer time to save for all those things if NHM wasn't financially stable.
The reason for crowd funding is unclear. The posting of this very short clip during this time seems weird to me. Add to it that NHM usually doesn't upload videos like this, and it's all extra odd to me. The Japanese tour where AJ had the solo shown in this clip ended last month. (At least that's what I think after translating the description of the vid.) Wouldn't it be smarter to upload the clip BEFORE the tour for marketing and promotional purposes and to gain hype from fans? Sure, U-Kiss is with Avex in Japan and promotional vids for the tour were uploaded on their channel, but something still doesn't add up. Why haven't the boys tweeted about this vid like they usually would? I can just IMAGINE what Kevin and Soohyun would say. There isn't the usual praise floating about.
Sorry for a tl;dr comment. I have a lot of attachment with U-Kiss, and this whole crowd funding situation has me very confused.
