Daily "The Unit" roundup: don't deny our r²π

[goshipgurl.livejournal.com]

Today: No filming but news of more idols that joined the show, including a former JYPE artist and a dude that has already been a member of two idol groups.

Naver released an article, saying the 63 male + female idols who passed Round 1 Auditions will head to Gyeonggi training camp today (Oct 2th). After training camp, the 63 male + female idols will be divided into 9 teams of 7 members. This is different than the reported 7 teams of 9.

Idols that joined:

• Former JYP artist JOO


• Former U-Kiss/Paran member AJ (now Siyoon)


• WINGS


• G-reyish member Yena

Wings was SUCH a good duo!! Their lack of career truly hurts.

Oh finally Woollim lets Joo do something else but I'm not sure if she's idol material?
How's Siyoon's college?

Wait AJ? That's the one who left to "study" right? He's cute but I'm kinda sad he's still trying to be an idol instead of studying lol

I think he graduated already, that's why he returned to Korea to start fresh as Siyoon.

lol you still keep this Neverland dp. Neverland is such a good song!

I don't know if AJ ever actually wanted to be a member of U-Kiss to begin with, NH Media threw him in when his old group PARAN dissolved (the other members were much older and went to the army/contracts ended) and then he got into Columbia and U-KISS started promotions in Japan which made his idol life harder to balance (at some point he was in the hospital??) and he basically pulled a Kibum and went on hiatus until his contract officially ended last year.

Since then he's found a new agency and done some solo stuff as Siyoon.
