I have high hopes - it’s a new ceo who’s coming right on the tails of the mess of a last ceo who drove cube into the ground essentially. He’s practically been given a gold mine with how well g idle is doing considering it’s the first group produced while he was ceo - he needs them to do well to gain the trust and favor of people in the company honestly.
He's been doing well since he took over end of 2016 =) There's an article here in Omona (https://omonatheydidnt.livejournal.com/22195624.html) that shares a bit of what has changed in CUBE since he took over. As a fan of CUBE groups/artists, I'm happy with how things are going. Plus papa Hong (Hong Seung Sung who everybody loves) is still involved in artist management and production.
Also you can really tell they were more prepared for this win - soyeon actually had a speech prepared!! They were still a mess in the encore tho I love them they’re so cute haha
I'm excited for them and very curious how Cube will balance them and CLC in the future. Like hopefully Cube's learned not to waste potential this time?????
I’m pretty sure cubes not gonna mess up - I read something interesting about how since this is the new ceo the (remaining) staff are all watching to see how he handles the groupS and company - so he has to be extra careful how he proceeds in order to gain their trust after the mess of the last ceo.
I don't really blame you, but a lot of it comes down to timing a bit more than luck. clc debuted at a t e r r i b l e time considering the girl group competition in 2015 was compromised of debuts/first major popularity spikes for the super rookies, on top of monster CBs from multiple veteran GGs. they just didn't have the money and promotion and interest behind them required to compete meaningfully and suffered for the old ceos bad decision.
the unfortunate part that needs to change tho is the issue of a new group debut generally garnering more public attention than a CB from an underappreciated existing group. we can hope tho that cube's success w newer groups will encourage them to promote clc hard to get them the attention they deserve to share.
there's fti and cnb from fnc who are pretty high on the fastest first music show win list for boy groups. Could had sworn there are more but my kpop history is terrible so not sure who else whoops
I've done a complete 180 in regards to my feeling about this song from them. I find myself randomly humming it now. Still don't care for the mini-album, but the title track is very solid.
So, this well deserved and I'm glad they are succeeding. Come on thru CUBE...
hoping clc will continue rising under their new CEO since black dress did better than their previous releases + i foresee a possible pentagon win next cb?? cube take yg's spot in the big 3 pls
